Pretty sure the first Tomb Raider had a naked Daniel Craig in one scene which is more than enough for all 8

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Pretty sure the first Tomb Raider had a naked Daniel Craig in one scene which is more than enough for all 8 I still haven't seen the first film, but was coerced by friends to see the second one (with Gerard Butler instead of Daniel Craig) in theaters. It was absolutely terrible and even teenage me noticed the noble savages led by Djimon Hounsou; it was probably the first movie I saw in theaters that I acknowledged was terrible.

BlueBayou posted:I know fanboys everywhere would just die of happiness if Nathan Fillion were cast as Nate Drake.. but Fillion is WAY too old to be Drake.  Actually, UC3 pegs his age at 35, so Fillion/North could both still work. (Not that it'd ever actually happen)Edit: An Uncharted movie would suck anyway. The whole point of the games is that they're a homage to those sort of movies, actually turning them into a film would just make them generic as hell.

It goes at least as far back as the Star Wars Christmas Special, but I remember reading some terrible things about the Sherlock Holmes fandom, so I'd guess that fans have always been like that.

I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure this comes from a still in the film License to Wed. The movie is only notable by how little it understands what it is trying to parody.

Nobody's posted the European version of the poster yet, which I think better encapsulates the spirit of the film.

Handsome Dead posted:Pretty much everything he's been the lead on has failed or sucked. I enjoy him, but the nerd cache he has is absurd. Well, the studios don't care about "sucked" anyway. But I actually was thinking the same thing about Fillion after Drive was cancelled after two weeks- "Man, this guy's career has gotta be in trouble." But someone explained to me that to casting directors and producers, what matters is that he can play a lead- he won't sell tickets with his name but he can be relied on to play that part credibly. Firefly, Slither, etc. all gave him enough cachet to get the lead in Castle, which was a hit. Hollywood is funny like that. There's an old quote from one memoir or another (bear in mind inflation), "If a director makes a movie for $20 million and it's a flop, what matters is that he brought it in for $20 million. The worst thing you can do is have a small hit." It's rare for your career to just end because your movies/shows don't do well. "Box office poison" is rarely something people get (and of course, the source of that term was Katherine Hepburn after Bringing Up Baby, and shortly after that she played The Philadelphia Story on Broadway and then on film and was a profitable star again.)

Maxwell Lord posted:Well, the studios don't care about "sucked" anyway. I can think of two instances where studios actually said "this sucks". Die Another Day was the (previously) most successful Bond movie, but it was so bad the studio opted to shitcan the franchise and start over. And it paid off. Batman and Robin was a massive success. The studio said "this sucks" and refused a sequel, opting to shitcan the franchise and start over. And you can see that paid off to the tune of billions of dollars.

^^ The Last Airbender had this situation as well. It was released, made bank from opening weekend showings, but then when they saw the backlash they too went "This sucks" and didn't plan for a sequel.
