I still can't wrap my brain around this whole thing. They're making four movies, and they're all coming out around the same period, and they're all, more or less, about the same thing. Does Sam Mendes have the chops to make four movies that, within those restrictions, are different enough from each other?
FOR SERIOUS. At this point his claim to fame is making the best Bond movie (or second best if you prefer Casino Royale) in 2012. Since when is SAM MENDES one of the top directors of the moment?
This all rests on the writing. One author/team or four different ones? Mendes usually adapts, I think.
> “But he was in A Quiet Place: Day One.” Listen to yourself when you speak.
Lupita’s character has a longstanding spiky rapport with whichever Wolff brother plays the counselor. Let’s see how they go through this together! Oh wait, he dies, now this random English lawyer (who’s in America because he’s gay, or something?) just follows her around and insists on getting 2nd billing.
I don’t watch Stranger Things because I’m not 14 and have decent taste. I’m just totally baffled that this BOG-STANDARD unremarkable Joe Bloggs (that’s what they call John Doe in England) actor is snapping up big roles left and right. Based on that dumb show?? Or does he have kompromat on every major studio chief??
a rich text!!! it’s the reason atj’s life is so dark but i also respect the unconventional decision to cast someone hot to play john and kind of ugly to play paul <3

I mean, the answer's no, right?
