Michael Fassbender Swings For George Clooney


I'm really annoyed by the lack of new photoshoots that accompanied the reemergence of Michael Fassbender last fall with David Fincher's The Killer and Taika Watita's Next Goal Wins -- I had to scrounge up an ancient picture to use here, and that's a crime against sexiness. Do some goddamned press, Michael! Anyway maybe next time around -- Variety is reporting he's in talks to lead George Clooney's new limited series called The Department, which is about spies and is a remake of a French series called The Bureau. (Anybody watched that?) 

Showtime gave the show an immediate greenlight, because they have apparently never watched anything George Clooney has directed before. He's famous though so he gets a greenlight, no matter how shitty he is at directing! That said the best thing he's done was his only other series, the 2019 series Catch-22, so maybe he should just direct TV. We'll see how this one goes before making a decision. And I can't possibly talk about George Clooney and Michael Fassbender without refering to that time he talked about Michael's dick on the Oscars, now can I?

Well let's hope George remembers, and puts it 
to good use on his little television series.

The Bureau is awesome, and not just because it stars Mathieu Kassovitz, the cutie from Amelie. Part of what makes is so good, though, is that it is about spies from an agency that is different from, and often at odds with, the CIA. Americanizing it might ruin the appeal.

C'mon now. Who goes on a live Awards broadcast that's going out to millions of people and literally talks about how large another actor's cock is? I mean WHO DOES THAT? I am no prude at all. I watch my porn, go to nude beaches and have been in gay bars with my cock out. BUT DAMN, I wouldn't go on a live Awards broadcast and talk about how so and so's cock is so big. I mean, that's just fucking weird. Not to mention tacky as all get out. To me, Clooney's talking like that reminds me of the famous Shakespeare quote: "Methinks the Queen doth protest too much". I've always had this gut feeling that Clooney at the very least is WAY more into guyz then he ever admits. But it's like he can't help himself. I really think in a way, this was his way of letting Michael know: DUDE I WANT YOUR COCK. Now I know Clooney isn't generally a vulgar, crass person, so his going out there and saying that is his desperate way of putting Michael's cock in his mouth. If not literally at least figuratively. His Aunt Rosemary Clooney would drop dead if she were alive today of embarrassment. LOL
