  1. probably once a day at least. It's not like I really expect to see something newsworthy from or about Emma every day, but the possibility of something happening is enough of an incentive ;)

  2. FFS dook, the forum craps itself when I put url tags around something.

     

    As for Shepherd Emma, I can totally see that. As long as it's not just about her finding her sexual identity or a new take on gender roles (i.e. it doesn't matter that it's a female character), it shouldn't be too overdone.

  3. Ummmm....so you think she's only interested in fame and fortune?  I'm talking about her being a good

    role model for little kids/teens and working with the environment. She would be great helping kids to learn to

    become ecologically aware, because she's familiar to them, and they've seen her grow up. 

     

    She lives green-practices what she preaches. She gives her dresses that she wears to premieres to her friends/resale shops,

    and her favorite dress was the dark blue 1920's vintage dress she got at a resale shop. I think she wore it to the HBP premiere.

    None of which means that she's not going to stay in acting. I'm sure Emma will continue to be a caring person, but I think the days where she was outspoken on a lot of issues are over rather than coming. I think Emma is aware by now that political and social messages from movie stars often don't ring true, and that she'd never really be taken seriously on these issues until she leaves show business. Which I I just can't see happening and also isn't supported by what she says. She's said she was desperate to act when she didn't get any offers for a longer time; doesn't sound like she's going to quit anytime soon.

     

    I'm sure the last thing Emma wants to be is yet another one of those celebes who like to rub it in your face that they have the money to support feelgood causes and you don't.

  4. Her pants are a big historical mistake in the movie,  did I mentioned this before?

    Uhm, I'm sure I've heard about deerskin clothing in the Neolithic. Not 'pants' per se of course, and maybe not in the Middle East.

    Well, get slim and healthy, Noah-style.

     

    If she would not be Emma, I would say: "Go and see a doctor, girl!"

    Crowe is supposed to be the family patriarch though, and he's usually looking like he needs a roast pig in a tub of potatoes every day just to maintain his blood sugar levels. So, the girls have to scrounge around in the underbrush for edibles. That may actually be realistic and historically correct. :P
  5. BTW most movies these days are not really original, even some of the most critically acclaimed movies in the past

    That's not a problem if the plot is realistic, maybe mundane. If you copy ideas that are far out there, it's much harder to find a good reason for it. There's a reason why fantasy literature that is derivative of Tolkien gets downgraded because of that.
  6. let's construct a worst case scenario:

     

     

    Christians: OMG BLASPHEMY

     

    Atheists: the hints at the existence of a higher power are troubling

     

    Agnostics: that's some cheesy shit

     

    Jews: I hope I can get a refund

  7. IMDB has a Sam Taylor-Johnson listed for director, is that still up to date? Because she doesn't exactly seem to have much experience in the feature film category.

    Which is probably why people are copping out; not because it's particularly disgusting, but if you want to get naked and kinky with low production values, you could just do porn.

  8. What if a family and children were exactly the catalysts that would help her to mature? There's a huge difference between being 20 and 30 IMO. Especially as far as sorting out all kinds of confusions goes, which is the vibe I'm getting strongly from Emma right now.

  9. So, if I follow your arguments, we will see her for the rest of our lifes only in fairytales, teenager-movies and sex- and crime free Sunday-afternoon--movies? Did she sign a contract with Disney????????

    Nah. The learning process I'm thinking of will happen naturally on its own as she matures. Which doesn't mean that she'll definitely take on roles like 50 Shades when she's older of course. Come to think of it, it must be hard to relate to a sexual fetish you don't have, and it's hard to be convincing if you can't relate to something. I have no idea why some men like to wear women's shoes, for example. And acting like it for a whole movie would be... tough. ;)
  10. For a good actress it should be no question if you like personally a sexual practice, you have to perform in a non explicit form in a movie. It is - like many other things - part of the job and I think, the film industrie has a lot of things to make shooting such scenes decent and comfortable for all involved (see Keira Knightley in 'Dangerous Method').

    I don't think so. If you have a problem with the glorification of violence in pop culture, it doesn't make you a worse actor/ actress if you don't accept that kind of role, for instance. Of course you could call it a lack of acting prowess if someone doesn't manage to play some specific role convincingly, but then there are limits to everything and also to what an audience accepts from a given person. If you can't overcome their disbelief it's not entirely your fault IMO.
  11. Are there too many "no go" from her, making it difficult for producers to book her (50 Shades...)?

    Something like that, probably. Let's remember what she said back when HP ended: no more blockbusters, no more fantasy movies, no American highschool movies (she didn't stick to the latter two). Add some high standards and you have a recipe for unemployment.

     

    50 Shades is a curious matter though. I'd really like to know why exactly that's a no go for her. Does she find the idea of a sex slave demeaning? Is it simply not her own preference/ not something she thinks she could do convincingly? Is it just the shoddy writing that turned her off?
