WTF casting

movies are cool. here is a place to talk about how cool they are. or maybe how much they suck, sometimes. like that fucking piece of shit 'mac and me'. worst fucking movie ever, a two-hour ad for fucking coca-cola.

WTF casting

Post by anarky »

Old, new, whatever.

Just thought of this after a friend posted an article on Facebook about Aloha (which looks like it might be that rare Cameron Crowe movie to not at least have an awesome soundtrack).

Emma Stone plays a character who's 1/4 Chinese and 1/4 native Hawaiian. Also 1/4 Swedish. So she's at least 1/2 Asian, possibly 3/4, depending on what the unaccounted-for quarter is.

The fuck? My kids are (ethnically) 1/4 Chinese and 3/4 cracker. Maybe--MAYBE 1/32 or less Cherokee or Lumbee mixed in on the cracker side. And Emma Stone looks like a fucking member of ABBA beside either of them.

I hate to cut right to the chase in just the second post, but seriously - an 8 year old Jake Lloyd? Not even close.

That would likely work out okay for dudes in the end. The more tall blonde chicks with big breasteseses, the better.

Haley Joel Osment should've been Anakin. Right age, and he could act. And, in retrospect, he looks more like Hayden.

Hayley Joel Osment looks melted. Hayden looks butthurt. There's something of a difference.
I have never read any of your posts, but from what I can learn I should say that for people who like the kind of posts you deliver, they are just the kind of posts such people like.

Whatever age Hayden would have been for TPM (16? 17? 18?) would have been plenty young enough to make the missing mom part work and would have made the romance at least quasi-plausible, along with the podrace & the final battle.

Lucas lost his mojo on Jedi back in 1982. Everything after his divorce from Marcia is turd smeared.
