It's a very strange (trippy) film, but he's impressive in it, especially with Sienna Miller.
It's an allegory of sorts. The first time I saw it I didn't know what the heck I'd just viewed. I recently revisited it after viewing the similarly disorienting & confusing Mother!, and was able to appreciate it much more.
Hiddleston has serious swagger and presence in that film though. He owns every minute on screen.
It's called 'North Sea Hijack' here in GB old chap.
Pardon me, old chap, but we the Yanks are ignorant on that front. ;)
One more thing I should point out is that he appears to have very good working relationships with a lot of Hollywood heavy hitters (male and female actors). If they give it to him, I'm sure he can pull in some decent talent. Just google him and Chastain and you'll see what I mean.
I can't think of him, and not remember that embarrassing Hiddlestunt he pulled with Trailer Shift.
As @MajorDSmythe rightly points out, surely "Trailer Shift Gate" has put an end to Hiddleston's chances of ever being Bond?
PS. Are you on this site 24/7 @bondjames, or do you have an MI6 Forum chip inserted into your brain, granting you quick easy access to any posted responses?
I keep changing my mind on Hiddleston. I do like him but there is something very Toffy about him no matter how bulky or rough the characters he plays are. He could be good, especially as a Roger Moore type, but he wouldn't be my first choice.
Cillian Murphy is one I thought of last night when I was watching the new Peaky Blinders. He just screams cool and dangerous in a lot of scenes. I've previously written him off because I thought his face just wasn't right for it but honestly I think he could be good enough to win people over despite that and with the amount of people obsessing over him on twitter I think he must have sex appeal even if I don't personally see it.
Fassbender is still my first choice though. I don't care if he's in his 40s. Give me two films with him over five with some skinny hipstery indie looking 30 year old any day.
You shouldn’t be watching skull island dissecting it as a great piece of cinema but rather a fun thrill ride. Because that’s what it is.
Yeah I found Godzilla disappointing but Skull Island I really enjoyed. I liked it a lot more than the 2005 one, which had some great moments but went on way too long imo.
You're not alone mate. Rambo 2 and 3 are unironically two of my favourite films.
Says the one commenting by the boatload of lines...lol i see you more than anyone in the thread, i agree though hiddleston like elba maybe were first thoughts for the role but quickly wrecked their chances by horrible movies and off camera shitty persona
I agree, Turner is a strong contender.
His languages are nice, but his accent is strong and knowing just a few words (Italian, Russian and Mandarin) doesn't count.
