He was the producer, it was 100% his call. Him also getting divorced to Debra in real life and then her character falling in love with him in the next season was pretty hysterical
I think George Lazenby (sp) is criminally underrated as Bond. Also, his movie was more true to the books (for better and worse) than almost any other Bond movie.
I like how in the following season premiere, Jazz asks, “Who’s playing the mom this year?” And then Nicky comes in at like 4-years-old after being born the previous season and says, “It’s the same mom!”
That's his second time referring to it. In the first episode with the new Aunt Viv he says something like, "You know Aunt Viv, ever since you had that baby there's something different about you."
Hard to work with is an industry catch all that you always need to take with a grain of salt. It could mean anything, up to and including refusing sexual advances from Weinstein.
I had always heard that Smith would be dragging Hubert down and disrespecting her on the set, but then I rabbit-holed on the history behind her time on the show, and by many accounts she was upset that a relatively new star like Smith got his own series while she had been working in entertainment for ages, and here she had to play yet another supporting role.
I don’t much about what happened on Fresh Prince to be honest, but I found her to be extremely demanding and unreasonable. She wanted things done her way without any regard for how it affected everybody else’s work flow or time.
On top of that, she’s just not very nice. Could never remember my name. I used to dread meetings with her.
I mean, there are two Darrin Stevenses, right? Dick York and Dick Sargent. Yeah, right, as if we wouldn't notice. Oh hold on: Dick York, Dick Sargent, Sergeant York... Wow, that's weird.
Brenden was actually too expensive (he did the mummy after the first GOTJ) and wanted a different career choice. Although, GOTJ2 did come out the same year he was assaulted.
That one I didn't actually notice. I think it's because he role is cut down so short in all three movies. Marty spends more time being hit on by his mom than his gf.
Yeah. Lawrence Tierney apparently had this reputation. He allegedly tried to steal a knife from the Seinfeld set. He also almost got into a physical fight with Tarantino when filming Reservoir Dogs.
I'm nearly 100% sure JK Rowling originally intended her to be black because that's just how she names characters but then later retconned her to white when she decided to make her a love interest of Ron
Yeah good writing from our beloved Happy Hogan,Rumor has it its same day when he came up with this crucial canon writing for the plot and Mr Tony Stark Arc
This ones weird, he said he got super self-conscious about how "fat" he had become in the role, and how "awful" he looked. So screw character continuity he decided he needed to be fit, and subsequently looked like he became anorexic by season 5. I was legit worried about his health which is why I even looked around at interviews.
Really odd because hes a god damn beefcake (complimentary) in the first few seasons. Doesnt look like an unhealthy weight by any means. Versus looking incredibly unhealthily skinny? Goes to show how deep the behind the scenes body shaming is in hollywood to this day.
I dunno whats up with this shows behind the scenes culture because MM's actor looked fine. Same with starlights actor who looked like a runway model but still didn't think she looked good and took a bunch of plastic surgery to turn herself into a Barbie doll.
What's with good looking actors in the boys needing to push themselves?
The Mountain was recast twice so three different actors played him. I legit remembering watching scenes from the earlier seasons and going "Oh. That was supposed to be The Mountain in that scene?"
The Third Mountain was too baby-faced. He looked like a giant, roided toddler.
Failure from the makeup department, IMO. Hafþór already had a pretty noticeable receding hairline; dye his hair and beard with some grey and throw some face makeup and he could plausably pass as 40. Instead they did...nothing I guess?
I legit didn't even know that was The Mountain in Season 2 because he looks so different until just now. I've rewatched the entire series multiple times too lol
It was when Arya was Tywin's cup bearer in Harrenhall. I also had no idea he was the mountain. Dude looked like the actor before him but minus 50 lbs of muscle.
Well yeah it's kinda easy to recast 'the big guy who says little and kills much' when you just look at a guy and say 'wow that big guy sure says littke and kills much'
Same. He was always my favorite. He made Dumbledore feel like someone who was nonchalantly wise and caring, and would let Harry make mistakes but not admonish him for it. Michael’s version was great too, but he was more bothered by Harry and felt impatient with him. Not as warm as Richard’s version.
Someone in another thread put it perfectly. They said something along the lines of: Richard’s Dumbledore was perfect through Harry’s eyes - someone to be loved. Michael’s Dumbledore was perfect through Voldemort’s eyes - someone to be feared. They each embodied an aspect of the character that was needed for the story.
I obviously don't like that Richard Harris died, but I think there's something gained from the 2 different versions that you couldn't get from just one. There's 2 very different dumbledores, the one who's excitable and wants to fill your heart with wonder and say "alas earwax" when he eats the wrong jellybean, and there's also the greatest living wizard who deeply cared for not one but 2 of the most horrific threats to the wizarding world who ever lived, and feels he let both down. Harris never feels fearsome or troubled, Gambon never quite reaches the same levels of whimsy, but dumbledore needs to feel like all of that to be him...
...is what I would say if I ever watched these movies, which obviously I haven't because watching movies is for fuddy-duddies and yahoo's
Unironically, as a child, that's just a big white beard with a little bit of face behind. No way 11 years old me to notice that little bit of face changed
It's far better than Season 3, but that's not really saying much. The new Geralt isn't terrible. Laurence Fishburne is great, and Leo Bonhart's actor (Sharlto Copley) is fantastic.
Of the major characters, they did the best job casting Allicent's kid and adult actors. They really look like the same person. Rhaenyra's transformation is pretty good. Aemond's doesn't look quite right but it kind of works. Aegon's is the absolute worst, though. Like he somehow got shorter and his face completely changed despite already being almost an adult in his childhood episodes.
Arjun Avasarala in the Expanse. Weird recast and the tone in the two actors betrayel is so different that I didn’t realize it was the same character for like half the season.
This one had me super confused. I thought the first actor was amazing for that part. The second actor, I really thought he was supposed to be an aide or assistant or something, the original chemistry be between Arjun and Avasarala wasn't there.

Hard to believe this isn’t the same guy.
