jaedmc Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I wonder how many "no ones" it takes for Aladdin to gross over 923 million dollars worldwide. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Speaking of Disney - they are delaying Woman in the Window (starring Amy Adams. Director Joe Wright) until 2020 (it was supposed to come out Oct 4) They need to "retool the film" as it tested poorly with the audience saying the 3rd act was too confusing. This is one of the movies that Disney kept from Fox Also stars Julianne Moore, Anthony Mackie and Gary Oldman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be fine with me. Also, quoting Rippa twice on one page, which I'm sure he likes because he's probably thinking, "what the fuck now?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I think Almost Famous was the last one I saw. Though she apparently did a handful of episodes of Ray Donovan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've haven't watched Ray Donovan in awhile, but when I did, that show was the destination for people you ain't seen in awhile or worked consistently in years. The last time I watched Lisa Bonet had a supporting role. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Yeah, I fell off that show waaaaaaay long ago, but it was already the graveyard party for forgotten or just general character actors (even its leads). And that's not a bad thing at all really. Everybody gotta eat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the first thing that made me a yahoo for her was the shitty 1996 Island of Dr. Moreau. I might have saw that after an episode of WCW Thunder back in the day.

As a long time Krav Maga stylist and non-believer of TKD School / Black Belt Factory bullshit, I feel that I absolutely have to go and see this movie. I've met so many people that have gone into TKD schools thinking that they will be magically transformed into Iga Clan killing machines after one or two weeks of training that it really isn't funny.
