Hey guys, gonna try having a mostly-consistent schedule, probably about one a day! Remember, you can always request something, just make sure you include details like character, plot, ect.
This is beautiful and made me spit my soda, but I’m not even mad.
We all know Sirius loves stupid puns and he’ll annoy everyone with them every chance he gets, making everyone utterly terrified of the word “serious” and anything dog-related, so yes, we’re all tired of such puns, but not Sirius. Never Sirius.
(( OOC: *sets up lawn chair and sips champagne* *waves handkerchief as you sail off on the titanic of melodramatic teen angst, auto tune, and poor acting* ))
Sirius: Remember that conversation we had about things I can’t be trusted with? your mums fancy plates, sharp objects, etcetera… Harry is one of those things.
Sirius: /Shit shit shit, don’t drop him./
Sirius: He’s cuter than you mate, I’m never putting him down.
How is this an amazing cast? There are literally only two actors out of this entire cast that are actually great actors, I have never even heard of the rest of these people.
I feel like you are only saying “Its an amazing cast” Because there are so few white people.
Angela Basset: Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner, with enough award nominations/wins to necessitate her own wikipedia page for awards alone. Lupita Nyong’o: Academy Award winner. Chadwick Boseman: Joseph Jefferson Award nominee; already showed his stripes as Black Panther in Captain America: Civil War. Sterling K. Brown: Emmy Award Winner for The People Vs. OJ Simpson and actor in the Golden Globe nominated television show This Is Us Florence Kasumba: Already had a bit part in Captain America: Civil War; was praised by many critics for her one scene being a scene-stealer Forest Whitaker:
^ that’s all from a single movie. Danai Gurira: Tony-award winning writer, plays Michonne on The Walking Dead, one of the most popular series out there today Michael J. Jordan: Featured actor in popular shows like Friday Night Lights, The Wire, and Parenthood in addition to frequent appearances on film. Daniel Kaluuya: The star of Get Out, which currently boasts a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and has been in the press pretty much constantly upon release. He was also featured in an episode of the acclaimed series Black Mirror. John Kani: An actor, playwright and director; while he hasn’t had as much work in America, he’s prolific enough to have a theatre in Newtown Johannesberg named after him.
Winston Duke and Letitia Wright have fewer credits to their names (the former has a consistent role in the well-received Person of Interest; the latter has been cast in Black Panther and Ready Player One in what is hopefully the beginnings of a bright career), but I don’t mean to belittle their successes by leaving them out, and those who aren’t as well known SHOULD be given a chance by big franchises. Lesser known names tend to get big after starring in Marvel movies. I sure as hell didn’t know who Chris Evans or Chris Hemsworth were prior to their flagship titles.
But even putting aside how important it is that this film is led by black creators, just because you don’t know these people doesn’t mean that they’re not critically acclaimed in their field, who haven’t put in the work. They have, and they’ve been recognized for it. Consider checking out some of their work before you decide whether or not only two of them are great actors.
