You should try sports fandom some day if you want to see constant sky is falling this sucks commentary A team could win 50 out of 60 games, and those 10 losses are the end of the world each time, let's fire everyone and start over, this team is a disaster!

I'm 40+ year Raider fan ... oh dont worry I am tired of it there as well. Everything sucks since the 70s and early 80s. Sound familar?

It's called acting. The person pretends to be a different person.

Usually people dont make a huge jump like this though. Jumping from horror movies, which let's be real doesnt take a whole lot of range to an action movie isnt that big of a change up in style.

Unless his character is going to kill people at a candle light dinner while serenading them with the sultry sounds of Michael Bolton, I just dont see it being a good fit is all.

That's just how to cookie...... errrr biscuit, crumbles

As I said earlier, he's been on a villain kick for his later career, Including 5 different villains in Cloud Atlas. He transitioned pretty well from romantic comedy to drama, and just as well to shady/villain roles. Give him a good part and he seems up for it.

Now, if he's not to your taste, that's a totally different issue.

But as I said, the movie may sink - but I doubt he would be the reason.

It's not how it crumbles, though. It's just an ignorant take.

The reason this whole "argument" is kind of silly -

Anyone who's a big enough D&D fan to be posting on this board - will see the movie regardless. The studio basically already has our money - so could care less what we think!
