The Dark Knight Rises

Poor Leo. Forever Alone. Oh, and Ellen Page. Is it too late to shoehorn Ellen Page into TDKR?

If Batman crashes into an architecture class, she could make a cameo. And there would be endless debate about whether TDKR was a dream.

Bane can sit through all the Twilight movies without getting violently ill.

Laughed so hard I peed a little (I didn't I just want to express how much I laughed at that idea)

Lots of people bring this up as a knock on Nolan but I have no problem with it.  Lots of directors have a trope of actors they work with over and over because they work well together and it makes the shoot easy.

Yep you want to act with people you know you have chemistry with, 'twas ever so, even before we had acting in pictures what move.

I'm definitely in favour of shoe horning Ellen Paige into something.

Yeah i was reading a book the other day that was saying the latest research leads experts to believe that Shakespeare wrote most of his plays to be preformed by the same group of actors and the same actor may have played the leading man in everyone of his plays.

Roaring Boys? If not, read that one too.


Yes many of the streets in Stratford are named after members of Shakespeare's troupe (including Richard Burbage, the man who played the protagonist in most of the plays, my #1 girl from back when I was 10 lived in Burbage Avenue).  One of my ancestors was part of that group around the time Middleton was the manager of the company, he played the comedic roles.

You mean shoehorning something into Ellen Page?

Wow that is cool.

I will have to see if I can find that book.  The book I was reading was just a book with some of the plays in it that had a really long forward that had a bunch of information about Shakespeare and his time in it.  I am going to see if I can get that book out of the library it sounds interesting.

A little, my girl Kate had the cooler ancestor though.

Here are the two covers I know of:





The edition I own has the top image but I think the bottom one is from the more recent printings. It goes over a lot of the personalities in the world of theatre during the late Elizabethan and Jacobean period. It's a nice accessible history book that can act (if somebody wants it to) as a springboard for more in-depth reading but doesn't have to and is still a satisfying read.

Yup, two is the number I came up with also.

Young Frankenstein/Blazing Saddles?

I'd put History of the World in there as "OK".
