It would have been fine in 70s Hollywood if he had drugged and raped a 15 year old as long as it wasn't too in the open, but like Jerry Lee Lewis' career pretty much ended when he married his 13 year old cousin. Also gently caress he was 22 and it was his third marriage.

No, it's the one who has questionable links to Epstein and went on a bunch of unprompted rants about how he DEFINITELY doesn't diddle kids like he's Frank Reynolds running a beauty pageant.

I know the novels (lol) explained this, but I forget if the games ever explicit state that the demons are actually interdimentional aliens that either psychology mined us for our fears and echoed that or if it was a childhood's end-esque thing where they inspired our demon imagery.

Billy Porter as Audrey II is a drat solid choice.

The rest of the cast ... eh. Evans has range, though, he could be a pretty fun sleazy Scrivello.

It's solid because he's played the role before, but it's not inspired or like "interesting" because he's played the role before. That's fine, I'm not opposed to that idea, but is not like "ooh, what an exciting choice" and I feel like if it's the fourth? fifth? version of the story in a little over half a century you need those inspired left-field choices.

He was pretty good in Furious 7.

He was fine but the extent of his role was "heavy #2*" and like all he had to do was stare intently and kick in a mildly acrobatic way. I'm not mad at the guy, I understand that people who train that heavily in muay thai have a very limited shelf life. He was also responsible for maybe the best action movie of the first decade of the 2000s, and then made another movie that had some of the best action setpieces from the same. Just from those 2 movies he deserves a lot of credit, but he went downhill really fast.


*and trust me, I'm familiar with heavy #2s

Pretending(?) to be bisexual is pretty quaint these days. If she's that starved for attention she needs to find herself a new trick.

I think it's worse than just being quaint, but even then I don't think she was pretending to be bi. Honestly the whole thing just came across as trying to be titillating and isn't really different than two drunk girls making out at a party to get dudes horny. It's not pretending to be bisexual because there's no element of "this is what I enjoy doing," it's entirely "this is what you enjoy seeing."

It's delayed because the house making it is unable to work, not because they're concerned about the box office.

She's arguably always been in that phase, she's only occasionally done interesting stuff like Rachel Getting Married.

Rachel Getting Married completely flew under my radar, but it has a wild pedigree; it was directed by Jonathan Demme and written by Jenny Lumet, who's Sidney Lumet's daughter and Lena loving Horne's granddaughter.

Yeah, I haven't seen it but I was looking into it because Jenny Lumet's son with Chef Jeff from Master Of None was in the Mandalorian and I was trying to figure out why he looked so familiar.

edit: Demme's odd overall, he's directed a few legit masterpieces but also a lot of forgettable garbage.

A film where Al Capone, instead of being this badass criminal underworld king is a barely sentient pantshitting moron like he was during his last years, is on paper at least, a great idea.+



semi related:
I am a big Bowie fan but I would never watch a Bowie biopic except if it was focused on some specific part on his career like The Berlin Years or on young Bowie's various failed schemes to make it big or maybe even on his last album that he basically made on his deathbed. But to be realistic Hollywood would much rather make a film that would cover his entire career generally from the 60s to at least the 90s and with some sort of redemption arc where he starts to do and then quits drugs and it would suck.

I´m also a big Captain Beefheart fan and Frank (2014) has basically prematurely made any future Captain Beefheart film obsolete despite technically being a Frank Sidebottom film because the general arc of the film is basically about the recording of Trout Mask Replica.

I vaguely recall some Tarantino interview where he said he hated biopics but if he ever made one it would just be about Elvis on the day before recording his first big hit or something along those lines.

Do it about his time in LA around when he made Station To Station and was going insane while doing entirely too much cocaine. It's a horror movie about him locked in his apartment.

For real though, he cultured such an image of otherness and celebrity and otherworldliness that even focusing on him as a human would be a huge misstep. I think if you were to have Bowie show up in a movie at all it would need to be just as a cameo, and his presence would have to be entirely magical and impossible and not at all in line with the logic of the rest of the movie. I can't even imagine an actor playing him beyond the obvious Tilda and frankly I'd kind of hate that too.

edit: the best Bowie biopic we're ever going to get is Lazarus, and that's a jukebox musical where almost all the songs are radically different from the recorded versions and it's actually just an abstract adaptation of The Man Who Fell To Earth

Iman and his kids would never allow a straight-up biopic, but Angie definitely would and if she had the rights to do it she absolutely would have already. It would be entirely scenes of her walking up to him as he dyed his hair red and saying "hey babe, your hair's alright" while he stares agape and poo poo instead of what she actually did which was tell him to scream that he's gay despite being married to her and making him wear this thing.
