Most of the cast seems to be a bunch of nobodies. Emma Watson can't act for shit. And the guy who playing Christian Bale part. Looks like he on estrogen supplement. Really your pick that guy over Christian "Im fucking Batman" Bale. It just looks like a mediocre Remake.
shareIt does appear to be shite. Emma's brain dead followers will help it make a few pennies.
shareI disagree. I think it looks pretty good. I would hardly say that most of the cast are nobodies. Emma Watson, Meryl Streep, Laura Dern, Saoirse Ronan, Timothée Chalamet, Chris Cooper, and Bob Odenkirk are pretty well known and are all good actors. Greta Gerwig wrote and directed it, so I expect it to be very good. I wouldn't be surprised if this gets some major Oscar nominations.
shareFrankly the only people i recognize from this movie is Meryl Streep, Emma Watson, Laura Dern, and Chris Cooper. Ive never seen these other people before. Its not like everybody watches nothing but Oscar Bait movies.
shareFlorence Pugh should end up becoming someone in the industry. She was great earlier this year in Fighting With My Family. Even if you're not into pro wrestling that's a fun film and she's great as the lead.
shareWell, the trailer looks amazing and almost had me in tears. The focus was on Jo, and Saoirse Ronan did a fabulous job! I'm really looking forward to this.
I saw the 1994 version, and I think I liked it? Hard to remember. This trailer definitely caught my attention.
Yes, this is definitely a stellar cast, but I wonder what they told them to get them involved in this remake.
shareI agree with you. The 1994 version is terribly underrated given the high caliber of acting it had.
shareI LOLd at Chalamet looking like he's on an estrogen supplement, but you're right. He does not come off as especially manly at all, certainly not in the way that Bale did in the '94 film.
Apparently Chalamet does have his share of female admirers though, from what I understand. I guess there really is someone for everyone.
I quote myself from here:

Anyway, I think there's four archetypes when it comes to white males and modern Hollywood.
1. The violent psychopath. Aggressive, evil, a textbook born-oppressor. Nazi-like. Usually blond, sometimes dark-haired.
2. The pathetic psychopath. Evil, but useless. A loser. His main function is to be easily beaten by the Politically Correct hero or to be the clown. Usually blond or red-hair.
3. The submissive cuck. Weak, emasculated, insecure. Usually dark-haired white.
4. The white knight. This represents the white SJW alter-ego. This is seen as a positive character, but it's some isolated white male that sides with the diverse cast against the evil white males. Usually dark-haired white.
