I'm waiting for Troy!!! I've been waiting for that movie ever since they said Orlando's in it.
I'm looking forward to Calcium Kid as well I would like to see his acting skills in a movie where there are no swords or weapons.
 I did see Ned Kelly. Great film, and Orlando in a bathtub wasn't bad either.

Moralanqua - I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but if you're in still in Scotland, Ned Kelly came out in the UK last year. If it's any consolation, Orlando's Irish accent had me, and one of my poor housemates I'd dragged along, in fits of giggles it was so awful. And the uncontrollable, rabid fan-girls in the row in front added to the entertainment too
Personally I am most looking forward to seeing the Calcium Kid and Troy. As a single gal, the Calcium Kid was going to be my Valentine's treat, but as the release date appears to have moved to April, it'll have to be my Troy warm-up instead. I'm not complaining though! I can't wait for Troy - Orlando Bloom, Sean Bean and Brad Pitt all in one movie, you just know it'll be worth watching at least once, even if they do massacre the story of the Iliad!
Just out of interest, did people hear that Sean Astin wants to direct the film of the Fantastic Four that's supposed to start next year? Apparently he said that he'd cast Orlando as Flame Boy. Now is it me, or does Orlando seem to have some sort of dressing up fetish? When is he going to wear normal clothes in a film?!

I think that his accent wasn't that bad. You could tell it was fake. But I tought he did a good job.
I did hear that Sean said that he would like to see Orlando play the human torch, but I think it was a jest. I think he was joking.

 *Gasp* He ACTUALLY gets to talk? I mean, rather than one-line-make-me-sound-like-a-complete-idiot-lines? Woo Hoo!

Because he's so hot  And therein lies the cliche of the century

"Flame Boy" ?! Hopefully, you're talking about the Human Torch. Can't say that I see him in that role, myself, but why not. Is Sean Astin really set to direct that? Since Marvel movies are really big right now, it's going to be a pretty big one. I don't see Sean Astin getting that gig. Not that I know anything about anything... Except comics.  |

I read that in SFX this month. It would be... interesting to see. At any rate, Astin's a good director. He did a cracking episode of Angel last year which was one of the most terrifying I've seen so far. Okay, helped a lot by the whole Angelus issue  but he still did a good job.
But you're right. They wouldn't give him a Marvel comic to do... although it'd be fun to watch at any rate.
And I'm still saying Orlando for Gambit. Because that would rock so much more than words can say.

That was part of the very, very groovy 'Bagenders' series. Warning: It is very slashy at times, but it is hysterical, and you can skip the Random Slashy Interludes should the mood take you. Here's the link: http://bagenders.stormpages.com/
As I said, it is slashy, so don't click should your tastes run that way.[/b]

A wee bit of slash won't make me blush!
Orli as Gambit would be nice to see but im afraid he wouldn't be able to do that sexy cajun twang *sigh* which Remy has.
Is there any news on that other movie? Kingdoms of stuff?

Went to look for that, and it looks rather interesting. 'Kingdom of Heaven' (which brings His Dark Materials to my mind, but there we are.)
As the Roman Empire crumbles (circa 450 A.D.), the British Isles are thrown into a loose anarchy as errant knights are entrenched in years of territorial battle. Then, one king emerges to unite them, Arthur, with his concept of a Round Table of united knights. This film aims to tie the legend of Arthur into the realities of the time in which he would have ruled. The details of the plot aren't known, but this film will likely depict the battles that led to Arthur's reign, and the issues that he would have dealt with (the traditional "pulling Excalibur out of the stone" origin story will probably not be used).
Stars Orlando, Liam Neeson, Eva Green and David Thewlis (egads, Lupin as well?) Got my info from here:
http://www.cinemasavvy.com/k/kingdomofheavenmovie.html
Now that looks like a movie I need to see, although it seems like Orlando is doing a lot of period-fantasy stuff. I'm not complaining, mind you...

If the guy will be in tights again, who are we to complain?
Movie sounds good - it seem Arthur films will be next years trend.
Anyone know whats next for Viggo, after Hidalgo?

Gah! Ack! <THUD> I am now useless for the rest of the day. Just picturing him in the long trenchcoat, throwing the cards... except I'm agreeing with the concern of him pulling off the cajun accent. But I worry about ANYONE pulling off the cajun accent.
Still... Orlando as Gambit....  |

He doesn't need to speak. Just stand there. And smoulder a lot. And throw cards. And wear the trenchcoat and the hair.
Oh my.
