I held out hope we'd get last one.
Say, how about Perlman for another comic movie, then?
First suggestion: Cable in Deadpool 2
Second: Tombstone, for a Spider-Man flick
Or someone in DC, though I'm blanking on who.

Solomon Grundy. Or if he doesn't want another makeup heavy role, Vandal Savage.
Ooh, Vandal Savage would be a great choice.
Blue Devil?
Man, he's a dead shot for Tombstone.[DOUBLEPOST=1487734062,1487733946][/DOUBLEPOST]

I think it works for silly genre stuff. I mean he is capable of more, but thems the breaks.
Also, everyone should watch City of Lost Children. Awesome young Perlman at work.
He was great in Pacific Rim as well. He has presence on screen, which is one of the things that makes him great. I'd like to see whomever directs him show his subtlety as well though. Hellboy was really good for showing that off about Perlman (the non-action scenes), so I hope he's used in that way in the future too.
And honestly people, you didn't say the obvious: Fallout movie. How could he not be in that? I'll bet it's being thought of (at the least) and it'd be great to have him appear in it, even if only a minor role, because as we all know, War Never Changes.

I agree with the voice, but not the look. Ron, to me, was one of those people who wasn't afraid to change his appearance completely for a role, usually with prosthetics. But it also took me a long time to get used to his real face, since he was Vincent/Beast to me for such a long time.
I had thought about Grundy, too! I just couldn't think of a compelling reason to tell his story.
Maybe he can team up with Vin Diesel and do some sort of brothers pic. The voices would make the relation believable.

Well, it only takes a week.
To @Bubble181 the nursery rhyme of Solomon Grundy is about a man who lives his entire life in a week.
Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Ill on Thursday,
Worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday,
That was the end,
Of Solomon Grundy.

Finally found a video of somebody attempting it, but they only get as far as wednesday. I'm not even sure it's possible to get the whole poem, given the nature of combo attacks.
Poor J'onn. Kept getting lit on fire.
Shin Godzilla won best picture and best director in Japan's Academy Awards, along with another five awards and three nominations.
I can't believe it, but I'm really happy about it and I hope Toho aims for quality again next time they do a Godzilla movie.
That said ... the faces of the directors/producers of the other nominees when they had to applaud after losing to a friggin Godzilla movie of all things.

It looks like Disney is playing a game of 'would you push the button':
Disney moving ahead with another Tron movie
BUT
Disney is in early talks with Jared Leto to star.

Yeah, I think I would press the button.
Scratch that. Not pushing the button. In fact I might hire @Emrys to put a guard of doomweasels around the button to make sure no-one else pushes it either.

Isn't it enough that he's messed up a DC character, now you want him to ruin the entire Marvel... Oh, you meant.. nevermind.
This is just more movie-related bitching by me, but it's been several months since I've looked forward to a movie as much as I'm looking forward to Kong, so I forgot what a den of "spoil everything on release day!!!" assholes Tumblr can be.
I don't even know why I'm still on there, come to think of it.

There is no escape.
Wow, I never considered you'd feel that way about something. You're always so enthusiastic and joyous about every film you notice. It's entirely unexpected and out of character that you would have a neutral or negative reaction whatsoever.
I'm not being entirely fair. I treated that like a Fade post, but Fade was heavily channeling Charlie there.

Whoa, hey man, that's going too far.
I strongly suspect Charlie would be all over Kong. He did like Transformers, after all. A lot.
Like I said, I haven't seen Kong yet, but I suspect it'll be better than a Michael Bay film. That said, I somehow got it in my head that Kong: Skull Island shared the same director as Arrival, which is not the case, so I'm not going to assume it'll be good either.
I'll find out tomorrow. Nonetheless I'd like to not know a couple of things I would've found out watching the movie.I'm sure Xharlie is excited about Kong. I meant channeling Charlie less in the movie taste and more in the "I like something" "I don't care" demeanor. Like the MCU threads or plenty of times in the latest movie thread where someone posts their little review/reaction and Charlie responds like it was a comment on his newsletter.
Yeah, I was going too far. Sorry, @fade. Sometimes I can forget just how shitty Charlie's behavior could be.
Not the first couple. There's a wonderful thread of Kissinger, Charlie, myself and others shitting all over the second Transformers movie. Since it's, you know, the literal worst movie ever made by humans.[DOUBLEPOST=1489185151,1489185107][/DOUBLEPOST]
Alien Covenant feels the same for me. Lazy rehash.
The Happy Madison company says, "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED."
