looks good. but the look of the lead actor caught me off guard.

ray winstone:



ray is an awesome actor. i picked an unflattering pic of him (on the right is from 'sexy beast)if you get the chance, see the tv series 'vincent' or the movie ''the proposition'.

his new 'body' is of course curtesy of digital magic. its funny. years ago i had a fierce debate with a friend who claimed that one day computer effects would be good enough to replace actors altogether. this was around the time of 'lawnmower man'. i was arguing (stupidly) that the effects would never be good enough. every movie has advances now. not long before my friend will be right. we both agreed it would be a good thing because of the disgustingly high salaries the top stars command. we figured it would help even things out a little if computers did most of the work in the future.

shardian:
HAHAHA. I didn't know that! I had no clue who Ray Winstone was, but figured it was him as he really is in real life.

Either way, I have heard great things about this movie and it looks frikkin awesome. Might be one I actually go see in theater if the reviews are positive.

ChadTower:

Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

Hoopz:

yeah, if i made a bet with my friend (cant remember if i did) i lost it the moment i saw the trailer at the cinema. i just assumed it was some unknown actor. then when i saw that it was starring ray, i then assumed that they did a darth vader or something- rays voice with some dopey body builder. that is to say, it didnt occur to me there was digital trickery involved. im definitely going to see this movie, despite having jolie in it!

oh, and ray is obviously not in your top ten megastar range. thus he wont be asking for tens of milions for this. so this is a good precedent...
