Why do studios keep casting GoT actors after they prove in GoT that theyre atrocious actors? Xmen was actually decent except every scene that comtained this unwatchable bitch.

look at this doode

>I know that actor! Theyre from my favourite TV show! Ill go see this movie now!
It was never about how good they were, if you see this move being pulled its a sign that the movie will not be very good, because theyre thinking in terms of marketting and not the actual movie when casting.

Only ones are

Charles Dance
The True King
Lena Headey in Dredd (box office bomb)

Kit Harrington has improved greatly since s1. I also thought he was pretty funny in that Andy Samberg HBO tennis movie. I'm honestly pretty interested to see how he does in the next Xavier Dolan movie.

>>69899362
It would have helped if her character was written better for this film.
Also JLaw was so out of it, it was like "just give me my cash right as i go out the door".
>>
I'm sure you are exaggerating, as long as she has a decent amount of screen time I'm happy.
>>
>>69900987
Maisie was in Doctor Who as a major character too and noone liked her, you can visibly see how stiff she is and cannot physically act and sucked the energy out of the room whenver she was around.
>>
you have 6000 years to name a movie that cast a person because they're in got that wasn't shit
>>
>>69901394
Christ, this. She was all kinds of fucking awful.
>>
>>69901394
they made her a mary sue meme character that's even more powerfuller than the doctor too didn't they?

I don't watch the show but I heard it second hand. And just hearing it made me cringe.
>>
>>69902977
Exactly what happened. Maybe it wouldve been less stupid if it was an actor that actually had some kind of flair in the role and had charisma as a larger than life character, this was one of the most pivotal characters in the entirety of Doctor Who to date and she just kind of stands upright saying lines, seriously, if you can find her episodes watch how stiff she is, its fucking bizarre.

Except Charles Dance and Stephen Dillane were actors before GoT and they have always been great.

What was wrong with Dinklage as Trask?
>>
>>69904028
I liked it too anon. Main girl is qt.
I've played some of the games, but not all, so I knew just enough to be able to rationalize the plot, but not enough to know if I was wrong about anything.

She is a pretty redhead

Good fit imo

Going Postal had based Charles doing a role somewhat similar to Tywin in that he was the (literally) patrician ruler in a fantasy world.

No, she has like one line after the opening scenes
>>
>>69905435

Well she had more personality than Hairy Barry in all the old X flicks.

Sophie is terrible. No chemistry with anyone, and dat man face. The guy who played Nightcrawler was prettier than she is.

>>69905597
Im not complaining, i enjoyed her character a lot. Hyped for next xmovie
>>
>>69900987
Eh Pompeii and The Forest didn't really have a chance to be good
>>
>>69899362
Because people go too see them

Is that so hard to understand

My normie friends dragged me to xmen cause dud it has sansa lol we should gooo

>>69904320
He just barely was there at all. They could have chosen pretty much any other actor, but they needed someone that would raise the hype, even if he had maybe 10 lines in the whole fucking movie.
>>
Some of the actors had good roles before GoT sunk them down

Pretty comfy movie.
>>
>>69906395
Based Bobby Carnivale

Her hairstyle annoys me, I don't know why. Like they were trying to make it look practical but that somehow ended up making it even more impractical? It just looks awful.
>>
>>69906395
Sean Bean, Lena Headey, Maybe Carice Van Houten in some obscure Netherlands movies and Tyrion's whore in her porn days. The rest had all shit roles.

>Natalie Dormer in The Forest

Is actually a pretty legit horror film and her acting was pretty good in it.
