I know you all hate Timmy now thanks to that admittedly obnoxious comment he made in his Vogue interview about having kids -- and the admittedly continued obnoxious fact that he's associating with that awful family whose name I refuse to even speak here at MNPP -- you made it extremely clear in the comments when I shared the poster for Marty Supreme yesterday. But I'm still not giving up on the boy. Sorry! He's just too talented. You might quibble over that - I know many people think he's never reached the heights of what he did in Call Me By Your Name; hell some of you don't even think he was good in CMBYN. (Although I do hope I've shamed those people sufficiently away by now, because jfc.) I disagree and think he's been terrific several times since then, but whatever -- so goes life, opinions, assholes, et cetera. I'm just here to say I think this movie here very much looks like the bee's knees and I cannot wait to see it. (Thankfully I don't have to wait until Christmas like the rest of y'all since I'm seeing it next week.) Point being -- here's the full trailer! Do enjoy.
I think he was excellent in CMBYN, but hasn't lived up to that since. He's not been bad in anything I've seen, just nothing special. That's why I don't get the "he's the greatest actor of his generation" narrative. Josh O'Connor has been 100x more versatile. Paul Mescal has done performances Chalamet could never pull off. Even Elordi recently in Frankenstein was more impressive than Chalamet's been in years. And none of them are as annoying in their personal lives. He's also clearly arrogant and unintelligent-terrible combo
ReplyDeleteOMG This ! 👆🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
DeleteHe's way overrated IMHO.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading his interview with Vogue, it's clear to me why he's dating a Kardashian!
ReplyDeleteHe was also superb Lady Bird.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with him is that he takes himself WAY TOO SERIOUSLY. To me, that's the biggest turn-off
ReplyDeleteHe’s very talented but so are tons of actors of his generation without the sus manosphere-like talking points he’s started to spout.
DeleteTalented yes I agree,wonderful in CMBYN though DDL deserved that years Oscar,eugh Gary Oldman,but I think he's going to face the same problem Leo always has especially in tough guy roles and that is convincingly playing certain types of men,his physicality read a certain way,not to box him in but it helps if you can convince,so far he hasn't reached that point but he will and if he still continues to look 25 at 35 - 45 that maybe a problem like it has with Leo until around 2019,loving Gwynnie though and if he wants to take his acting seriously good for him instead of like a lot of themwho are to busy posing and pouting through roles,he's doing the work.
