I find all this hullabaloo about Conroy's last role kind of weird. Since when do we remember actors based on their final performance? It's not going to tarnish anything he did, all his great work still exists to be enjoyed.

A lot of it comes from thinking Suicide Squad was just going to be this utter disaster and instead it's just kind of mid, maybe even 'wait for a deep sale.'

For sure, and so it feels less like people are actually worried about his honour or legacy or whatever and more like they're just using his popularity to take a stab at a videogame they expected to hate.

So instead of his last performance being in a lovely video game it will be a lovely movie.

Honestly I think that the news this isn't his last role dropping on the day SSKTJL dropped is hilarious and transparent

So in that case his last vocal appearances will be in a bad movie and a bad video game then, that kind of sucks. Larryb fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Feb 1, 2024 |

Unless they die in a tragic accident or something when they are young, most actors last roles are terrible.

I think Burgess Meredith's final role was in the FMV game Ripper, which had a lot of other stars but was absolutely, indefensibly awful and bad in every conceivable way.

His performance is probably not terrible. He was good at that voice.

While Orson Welles getting blacklisted and having to take what he thought of as demeaning roles to get by was a sad story, I think for a lot of successful actors, they could probably afford to retire in their old age, but they keep acting right up to the end because they enjoy it and many roles can be not very physically demanding.Codependent Poster posted:I said lovely movie, not awesome one. I rewatched the classic Transformers recently, and while I still can't really call it a "good" movie, it certainly is an amazing experience. It was an insane decision to kill off the majority of the original cartoon's cast to make room for the new toys. I'm pretty sure I blocked out most of the memory of the first time I saw it as a kid from how traumatizing it was. Japan didn't take it well either. Otherwise, the visuals are fantastic, the music is a real ride, but the plot is pretty sloppy. I think some of the originally planned but deleted scenes would've smoothed a lot of things out and given time to breathe. I think the one that might've improved things the most might've been if they left in the full death scene for Ultra Magnus where the sweeps draw and quarter him, mainly because that'd give some context for the bit immediately following where the newly befriended Junkions successfully rebuild Ultra Magnus, meaning that there'd be some hope for the Junkions to help rebuild the fallen Autobots (although the ones voiced by Casey Kasem would still be dead over him leaving the show over Carbombya).

He was apparently so far gone from Alzheimer's by the time of Grumpier Old Men they had to feed him his lines and coach him through it. Ripper was just elder abuse.

Yeah I agree with most of that in regards to the Transformers movie. But I'll say that it's held up extremely well and the soundtrack is fantastic. Sure the plot could have been better, but despite it being a movie made to sell toys, it has a ton of love and heart put into it.

But per the press release that came out two months ago, seems doubtful unless it was some incredibly miniscule cameo: quote:Reprising their Tomorrowverse roles for Crisis on Infinite Earths are Darren Criss as Superman & Earth-2 Superman, Stana Katic as Wonder Woman & Superwoman, and Jensen Ackles as Batman/Bruce Wayne. Wouldn't be the first time IGN made something up out of whole cloth and claimed it as a scoop.

It's funny how they start with footage of the last season of the show where the budget was on the rocks so the animation is really excessively bouncy, and then it jumps to the much stiffer modern animation. I think it's some kind of 3D model CG put through a filter to flatten it out. The style I think sometimes it works for me, sometimes it doesn't, I don't think they're trying very hard to replicate the original style or the multiple levels of shading. The voices, I'm not sure if they're the original VAs. Cyclops sounds about the same, Storm sounds like maybe the VA can't quite hit the same voice as before, Wolverine sounds entirely different, and Magneto has forgotten that he's supposed to have an accent. But hey, nice to see that this finally exists.

Nice to see this finally has a release date and looks pretty decent. Do we know if they got the original cast back for this (or as many as they could at least)?

Rogue, Beast, Storm, Wolverine, and Sinister I believe are the voice actors from the original series. The rest are new.

Cyclops' voice actor passed away. The new one sounds pretty close though That looks a lot like the old series. And Jean is pregnant, so the question is if we're getting baby Nathan or Rachel
