gwiz665says...Man, that voice was spot on.
EDDsays...Here we go again, the never-ending whiners' argument. UK actors always cast as villains by Hollywood? Puhh-leaz.
Forgot your own cinema legend Laurence Olivier, did you? Oh, we're in the 21st century now? What about Jack Bauer? Huh? Forgot Hugh Laurie, America's No.1 male sex-symbol, too? Christian fucking Bale? Gerard Butler? James McAvoy? Starting to remember some, are you now? Jude Law. Idris Elba. Sir Ian McKellen. Patrick Stewart. Ralph Fiennes. Michael Caine. Clive Owen. Ewan McGregor. I bet I could name thrice as much if I started googling.
If you want to whine about Brits occasionally being cast as baddies, first acknowledge that Arabs, Russians, and Chinese have long had it way worse. Wankers.
alien_conceptsays...I don't think they're whining EDD, especially seeing as they specifically mention the fact that as a nation we don't shout about it and call it racist or some other bullshit like that. I've heard people jokingly mention this point a ton of times, but as to actually find it offensive or whine about it, nahhh. And plus any villains from Europe are usually British actors anyway, not that it matters
lavollsays...swedes make the best villains:
Ornthoronsays...^Indeed!
Trancecoachsays...love Emma Thompson.
Deanosays...John Sessions is awesome, reminds me of his work in Stella Street.
ioticsays..."the fact that as a nation we don't shout about it and call it racist or some other bullshit like that"
possibly because we've spent the last, ooh, 500 years or so defining the term "racist"
that would be ... the pus calling the maggot white ... or something
lavollsays...another swedish villain
yourhydrasays...BEST RICKMAN IMPRESSION EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
kymbossays...That was a pretty wicked comment from EDD. It's funny how true a conventional wisdom seems until you think about it for a bit.
