So you're not in favour of people making up their own minds, their own decisions? Because YOU don't like her others should boycott the movie?
Here's something that will rock your world...lots of people like her.
You are perfectly entitled not to like her, that's your opinion. But don't dictate what others should do.
He is probably perfectly affable in public...until someone sticks a camera in his face.
Baldwin has had many many altercations with photographers over the years. They know he has a temper and they exploit it, they target him and rile him up. And those photos and videos make a lot of money. So they deliberately wind him up.
So if people like this follow and taunt him, it's inevitable he is going to snap.
Also...why didn't the shop owner kick her out? Private premises, he could have asked her to leave. Baldwin tried, but she ignored him.
Nope...I am not supporting Baldwin, but this woman was in the wrong.
Thanks K, but even in his earlier movies like Above The law and others, my biggest issue with him was his thin, weedy voice.
He clearly had the fighting skills back then, but for me the voice never matched the physique.
Fundamentally...he is too old and fat for anyone to consider putting him in a movie.
He has survived the last 15 years or so making cameos in nondescript action movies, but even they have dried up.
And I dont think he was smart about his career. Look at Jackie Chan, another action star who is older and not able to do the sort of stuff he used to do...but he acknowledged it. He slowed down, started doing more dramatic roles (karate kid remake, The Foreigner, ).
And he comes across as very serious and dour...Chan, Arnie,
Stallone, The Rock, even Van Damme have shown a lighter side in movies.
Seagal is frankly a figure of ridicule these days, and there are many negative stories from people in the movie business about him.
I can't see any reason why anyone would give him an acting role, and am surprised that he still has fans out there that are seemingly mystified as to why he is no longer making movies.
Well, sticking a rifle barrel up a guys cornhole and blowing his guts and half his face off is not really self defence.
Or it could be simply because the film was still in post production when the trailer was put together (which is very common), and the effects were not quite finished.
Empire of the Sun and The Color Purple came before Hook, and after Hook he made The BFG, Tintin, West Side Story, Dial of Destiny and Ready Player One.
So...no.
I'm worried that they are showing a lot of people running from aliens and being attacked. I hope there is more substance to the movie than that. I get no sense of the plot, script or characters.
Still, it's a teaser. Will reserve judgement until we see a full trailer.
Hate to burst your bubble , but studios own the rights to the characters and can remake and recast any time they like. The public have no say in the matter.
Sure you can voice your opinion, but its meaningless. If they want to remake something with a different actor they can and they will.
You also need to remember that a lot of todays generation may not even know who Gibson, Stallone are. They never grew up with them like you may have.
So casting a different actor who appeals to today's cinemagoers public makes sense.
And as I said before, the original actors are just too old to be making these movies.
Get real.
Mad Max 3 had its moments but was ruined by the silly kids.
But fundamentally, Gibson is just far too old to play the character now, and is also no longer bankable.
I also thought the last Mad Max movie was incredible. So I am happy to see more of the same. I have no time for weeping over the notion that a certain character or actor is not in the movie.
