He has said that what he needs to say, he says on the football field.

I am totally thrilled that he is doing this.

Have you ever seen Bull Durham? The Kevin Costner character teaching the young Tim Robbins all the phrases he needs to repeat once he gets to The Show?

I love that Lynch is saying no to all that nonsense.

I thought Kevin Costner gets the deciding vote.

At first, I thought that Aaron Paul "disappears" into his role as Jesse Pinkman, but then when the actor opened his mouth, I got the feeling that Aaron is Jesse, and isn't doing much 'disappearing' at all...

It would have been nice to see Esposito get it.

I agree with you. Unfair though it may be, overactors generally get more awards than underactors. An understated, nuanced performance like Esposito's is harder to judge than a more flamboyent role where it's easier to see the "acting". This applies to the oscars too. There are exceptions of course, like Kevin Costner (underactor) winning over Bill Paxton (overactor), but in general it's true.

While his Cage puppetry is impressive, it doesn't compare to the masterful body of work he's turned in as Kevin Costner.

I was actually always a big fan of Kevin Costner's Waterworld's opening with Universal. It showed the globe then it flooded the crap out of it.
That was probably the best part of the movie unfortunately.
Surprised that wasn't included on this collage.


The OLDEST one I can remember was "Cat Ballou" (1965)

I remember "Waterworld".....good call, it just means that there are plenty more out there to do a follow-up vid to this one.

For better or worse, finally a republican candidate who wants to challenge the status quo.

It's amazing he's even allowed to be nominated.

Let me get this straight, Dr. Paul.

You want to close all the military bases, end the wars, hobble the defense contractors, slash the budget to nothing, fire all the federal employees nation wide, then hold to a sort of good neighbor policy in terms of pollution and regulatory abuse in the Laissez faire right wing utopia you unleash on the world for four or more years.

A crack-pot Texas gynecologist who isn't Ivy League, and doesn't carry a Skull and Bones card in his wallet.

I was thinking that said something positive about America until I remember the last Republican vice presidential nomination.

Anyone who is a member the Republican party for any semblance of ideals and philosophy will vote for Ron Paul. The rest of them just like country music, kevin costner movies, flashy advertisements and anything else that doesn't require their concentration for more than five minutes.

I saw those movies (except for Ladykillers) and I have still put Hanks in the same 'class' of actor as Kevin Costner, David Ducovony, or Nicolas Cage. These are actors who are the same guy in every role they have. Story is different, but character is about the same in terms of what the actor is 'doing'. Costner is always the slightly wry everyman in every show he does. Hanks is the same way. They play their particular approach solidly as you put it, but in no way does it come across to me as great acting. So I don't see why people fall all over themselves talking about how great Hanks is. IMO, he's strictly average at best and in some shows he is painfully sub-par.

And I hated Hanks in Castaway. That movie sucked. Five minutes of movie 'packed' into two hours.

that was very kind of you! thanks!

I would have liked all those examples in a *skills, tbh. Sort of the opposite of fail - *win

Well I'd take over video games, but I think the owner is still around in some capacity.
I do also like the idea of "skills", but I'm concerned that it would end up getting all sorts of videos that aren't necessarily skills... for example...
Flukey, half court basketball shots.
Kevin Costner explaining his oil from water extraction system.
A skateboarder performing a one-off trick etc.
A gamer throwing performing an amazing 5 person grenade kill in Modern Warfare 2.
etc.
