daniel day lewis is not a serious person
>>215683454Cox also worked with Jeremy Strong on Succession.Strong is also a retarded method actor who goes full autismo just like Day-Lewis.How come Cox didn't have anything to say about Strong?
>>215683454>handbags-at-dawnWhat a closet homosexual thing to say
>>215683509strong? more like weak
What's the point of method acting? I understand staying in character between takes, if there's a technical issue and there's a break in the action, but at the same time you can watch actors like Ian McKellen and Christopher Lee break during serious scenes in Lord of the Rings, laugh it off, and then immediately deliver performances greater than any shoe Lewis has cobbled, and don't get me wrong, he's cobbled some great performances so to speak.I just wonder if they were really worth it, or if the methodology is necessary, or even beneficial. Seems like it would make the other cast and crew uncomfortable, but at the end of day as long as you don't use it to act like a complete asshole, or try and force it on other people, I really don't care.
Method acting is retarded but has Cox ever given an outstanding performance?
>>215683454Yeah, but that's not method, Danny, it's just being a cunt. Method is where, if you have to do a scene of a character crying over his dead family, instead of pantomiming tears by wringing your hands around your eyes,you think about shit that makes you cry. If Danny had to perform such a scene, he'd just murder his whole family and then not even cry about it. Fucking actors should be replaced with synths, we'd get more human performance out of clankers and they'd look less uncanny valley than these surgical monstrosities, anyway. Also, where the fuck do they get off making anti-union propaganda when their whole industry is a closed shop? Burn him alive, I say, the Mohicans weren't meant to last.
>Danny boy, why don't you just try acting?
>>215683454He's both right and wrong. Method acting is indeed misunderstood by a lot of people and abused by some of the undisciplined midwits working today, but it's still kind of bullshit to take it so seriously anyway.
DDL is such a faggot, lmao>>215683509how can a person look so gay in a still photo?
>>215683602Super Troopers 2
>>215683582Method acting is only worth something if it can coax good performance out of an actor who would otherwise performed poorly. If it works for actor like Lewis, great, let him do it, but otherwise it is like kissing a lucky frog before a take, it will do fuckall for someone who sucks balls (Jared Leto comes to mind).You posted great counterargument in a form of McKellen, or Lee or perhaps Anthony Hopkins. I don't see them ever giving bad performance, no matter how bad script is.
>>215683716This makes sense. I see non method actors give better performances than most method actors so I don’t see how doing all this added shit really benefits the performance. Bottom line is if you have charmaine you will captivate an audience more then not sleeping for three days to “get into character”
>>215683602Frankly I liked him the most in Troy.
>>215683509>How come Cox didn't have anything to say about Strong?He did
>>215683602Adaptation
so did he kill any injuns for real when he played hawkeye
This proves without shadow of a doubt that Cox was, is and will always be the superior actor.
>>215683602Daphne's dad in Frasier.
>>215683799>>215683622Not sleeping for three days is funny, because I never thought I will ever see a person on camera that would be unable to pretend being tired, sleepy or waking up from haze, so I never gave it any thought, but then I saw that indian chick from Alien Earth, completely unable to simulate waking up, and I reevaluated my opinion.
>>215683602he's the only reason Manhunt works
>>215683454did lewis really take off like three years to go make shoes in italy or was that some bullshit? if true hes never allowed to give his opinion on literally anything
>>215683454>the method is trying to actually feel whatever the character is feeling at that time>this means i need to act like a retard in-between takeswhere's the disconnect?
>>215683582Because some actors are really good and some need crutches
>>215683716For me? It's Michael Fassbender and Sam Rockwell. The former of whom has been in a lot of shitty movies, notably the X-Men prequels, but Jesus Christ is he giving it everything no matter how bad the screenplay is.Anthony Hopkins meanwhile was really the only part of Thor Ragnarok I liked. He goes from the comedic portrayal of Loki (as Odin), to what is quite possibly one of the best death scenes in recent history, and finally shows back up at the ending to give a great motivational speech.Without those brief sequences, that screenplay is as shitty as Love and Thunder, which in its own right could have been forgiven and even remembered fondly (despite all of its comedic shortcomings) if they had taken Zeus and Gorr seriously. Damn, I loved that ending with Infinity. Shame the scene is trapped in such a God awful film. Hemsworth deserved better than that, and playing second fiddle in Furiosa. Dude needs to fire his agent at this point and start taking himself seriously, and that doesn't mean not doing comedy, which he's surprisingly good at.
Acting is ActingMethod acting is bringing that acting to you real life, if you can't left your work at your work place, you are a tryhard retard
>>215683454what do americans mean when they talk about having a soapbox?
Name one (1) performance Brian Cox has given that you couldn't envision Anthony Hopkins giving and better.
>>215684142something to stand on and presch to a crowd
>>215684043anon you are a fag
>>215684194how big of soap are ya'll using?
>>215683716>Jared Leto comes to mindThat man bounces between amazing and abysmal performances. He has no between whatsoever.
>>215684144super troopers because having a irish or whatever seeming cop is perfect and he obviously does that better than hopkins would>>215684203shut up and get your shine box daniel
I feel like if I were an actor and playing an alcoholic I'd probably get drunk for real because it's fun to get drunk and it would be even more fun to get paid for getting drunk
>>215684083>Michael Fassbender and Sam RockwellBoth of them need to flog their agents, especially Fassbender. Good on him for finding passion in racing, but I wonder if it is just cope.>if they had taken Zeus and Gorr seriouslyThis is hard to understate - Waititi had both Russel Crow and Christian Bale on hand and did absolutely fuckall with them. Never was there more deserved career death.
>>215684037ThisProbably the only reason it’s a franchise at all now.
>>215684144Hannibal Lector
>>215684223Have you seen our demographics? We don't have nearly enough soap.
>>215684227>That man bounces between amazing and abysmal performances. He has no between whatsoever.I have seen him in plenty of movies, but I swear to good he only ever gave good performance in American Psycho exactly because he wasn't trying to be method acting shithead, and he felt very natural.
>>215683454>Daniel Day Lewis gets called out for being a pretentious asshat by based Brian Cox>DDL can't resist publicly "clapping back", thereby betraying the fact that what Cox said made him seethe uncontrollablyTruth hurts eh Daniel? Stay mad you scenery-chewing faggot hack.
>>215684194Thank you
>>215683454lol what a faggotBrian is based and far superior
>>215684144agamemnon
>>215684363>Seethe much, Daniel?
>>215684266imagine if the other actors in Love and Thunder had taken the movie even a tenth as seriously as Bale
>>215683622How do you reply without sounding mad
>>215683548Seems more a "I think Brian Cox is gay and acts like an old gay man" thing to say.
>>215683454>chadiel day lewisfuck brain faggot fat ass cox
>>215683454I would've just said "If he wants to tell me how to do my job, he can," and then never think about him again.Lewis is kind of a fag for saying this.
>>215683454I can’t fault either type, neither approach is better because after all approach and process doesn’t matter, only the result. If DDL needs to embody the role to perform I don’t fault him. But I also don’t fault people who see acting as a profession which you can leave at work or even break up the monotony of on-set time with some levity.Neither is superior but you can’t help but glean an air of smugness from DDL that he thinks the other kind is being unprofessional. The only thing I would find unprofessional is trying to get a method actor to break character. Thats no game and I do think it would be more than annoying but flat out sabotage. But having fun on the set with others while you stew in character isnt and shouldn’t be verboten. As long as they’re focused and quiet when the cameras are rolling, not wasting time, there’s no should be no problem.
>>215683602Striker in X2 is the only time a capeshit movie had a genuinely good and well-acted villain.
>>215683454What happened with the whoopie cushion lmao
>>215683509And he was far and away the best performance in the show.So clearly it works.
>>215683454nigga should stick to astronomy instead of drinking my niggas milkshake
>>215683602Killzone 1,2,3
>>215683582Method generally just means “doesn’t leave character between takes”. It makes it less likely for you to have microexpressions that clash with your character. It’s completely irrelevant for theater, which is why theater and classically trained actors don’t do it. But when your face is blown up in 4K in modern movies it’s helpful.
>>215683509Bro he's not even a good actor what the hell
>>215685541if that was really the reason the method fags would just say that instead of talking about The MethodTM and its merits without ever actually explaining concretely what it is or why you should do it. instead they just complain that people dont understand it without trying to get people to understand
>>215683582It's really just a style. Probably a neurodivergent one, but everybody needs to make a living and the results can be good.
>>215685590who gives a fuck what you think about anything retard
>>215685646you since youre offering excuses now get back in front of the camera and make me laugh you dancing monkey :^)i accept your concession
>>215685541>It’s completely irrelevant for theater, which is why theater and classically trained actors don’t do it.Retard, method acting was developed by and made for the theatre. Many classic method actors like Marlon Brando started off in theatre.
>>215683509Jeremy worked with DDL on Lincoln and followed him around like a puppy dog
Why are there so many people in here buttmad over method actors as if you retards had any insight into what actors do? Lmao
>>215683509He was talking about jeremy no daniel and he respects other people types of working what he said is just his opinion
English theatre acting is far superior to American method acting.
>>215683582I love Christopher Lee but you are retarded if you think his performances are better than DDL’s. He was great at playing a specific kind of character amd had natural charisma but that’s it, he never could do something like TWBB, Phantom Thread or In the Name of the Father.
>>215685230By trying acting.
>>215685457Nah Heat’s Joker is great as well.
>>215683602Bourne supremacy
>>215684001Method acting can help thou, is like if i want to act a little drunk and i dri k a cup of wine that gets you this feeling of dizzy and you go and act, but when you go beyond is like downey said never go full retard is like fucking actually getting drunk and being unable to act the inly one who can get it right is dankel day lewis and heath ledger they work on talking walking and some abilities they characters may have along with how they would think etc and they actually act upon it still as marlon brando faggot said you only have so many faces wich less be honest you can only be yourself or versions of yourself youll never be able to truly transform your body into another person is just make believe and kinda dangerous because you end up afecting yourself like day lewis
>>215684037His Hannibal sucks ass.
>>215685457Molina was great in Spider-Man 2, his performance alone gave depth to a flat script
>>215685895Pic related
>>215684357His early career was good. American Psycho, Fight Club, Lord of War. After that he went full psycho with the whole method acting, it worked once with Dallas Buyers Club but never again
>>215685139Based
>>215683509He did. He made fun of Jeremy's method acting.
>>215684083>Hemsworth deserved better than that, and playing second fiddle in Furiosa.He was pretty much the focus in Furiosa, Miller gave him the spotlight in the same way he gave Theron's Furiosa the spotlight in Fury Road. It's funny how his main character is never really the main character nor the driving force in the movie. All that said, yes Hemsworth clearly has a lot of untapped potential that he is wasting in shitty movies.
>>215683706>He's both right and wrong. Method acting is indeed misunderstood by a lot of people and abused by some of the undisciplined midwits working today, but it's still kind of bullshit to take it so seriously anyway.Honestly his real mistake here is using this opportunity to take a jab at Cox because of something the said so long ago. Instead, maybe he should try and defend his method with still came out as a lit bit loony when he says "I choose to stay and splash around, rather than jump in and out or play practical jokes with whoopee cushions between takes or whatever people think is how you should behave as an actor." He sounds like some austistic fuck that is pretty mad normal people can go in and out characters between takes unlike him that needs therapy to remember who he is.
>>215683509Cox hatred of Method Acting comes from working with him on Succession.
>>215685895Ledger didn't went full retardo, at least not for the Joker if this is what you mean. Plenty of people mentions that he went in and out of character between takes, shame we don't have any material of this because Nolan basically hates BTS material and burns everything after the movie is done.
>>215684144The CIA guy in the bourne films and the senator/patriarch/whatever in coriolanus, he was fuckin great in that. He's got a solidity to him that hopkins lacks. I can believe hopkins in like, meet joe black as this intelligent machiavellian business guy or as a brainy homosexual cannibal, but not a man of gravitas.
>>215683602Succession.
>>215684144Also RED was amazing and he was great as this cheshire cat of a russian agent, every scene was indulgent. I haven't seen red 2 though I just assume it will suck because it's a sequel.
>>215683509He did. Brian Cox has one million opinions. Also Jeremy Strong in Succession, especially season 2, was the single best performance on TV I've ever seen.
>>215683454>Christian Bale, The Machinist>Monster, Charlize Theron1. this >>2156836222. this >>2156837163. this >>2156860844. Acting > LARPing off camera and off the clockMKULTRA for actors that aren't in on the joke that they were typecast regardless.>>215685828Golden Age Hollywood had the maximum quantity of stage trained actors, and it only gets worse over time.
>>215683454whenever i hear the phrase method i think of picrel
>>215683716I think as a whole, brits are less enthralled by celebrity. Specially those older actors, they really seem to think acting is not only just a job, but a kind of silly one at that.
I don't simp for Cox - altho his Hannibal is canon and if you don't agree watch it again - but he's right here. DDL carried his rifle everywhere for a year while making Mohicans. Etc. He's the last actor on Earth who can deny how extreme the Method is.Also, in that quote he's referring to Gibson, Clooney, etc who are famous for pranks and tomfoolery between takes.
>>215685895You're druk right now
>>215683548"Pistols at dawn" refers to being challenged to a duel. He replaced pistols with handbags because that's the kind of fight a bitch like Cox is always ready for.
>>215685802>Marlon Brando>method actingHis whole thing was he didn't take acting all that seriously and just showed up acting cool doing exactly what he wanted. He didn't adjust himself to the role, he adjusted the role to him. From Streetcar to Godfather to Apocalypse Now to Dr Moreau.
>>215683553Right, those shoulders are pathetic.
>>215683716Jim carrey in man on the moon also comes to mind
>>215685828This is the coded dispute at the heart of this drama, really
>>215685938Requiem for a dream was a high point
>>215683509Probably just tired at that point
>>215683602Super Troopers was his Gangs of New York, you bastard.
>>215683454Daniel Day Lewis is fucking meme tier. Cox is certified Kino no matter what he's in. DDL is a coward by taking so much Oscar Bait rather than being like Cox and starring in fun stuff like X Men and The Campaign. Now he's fueling his nepo baby son's shitty film.
>>215683602you ever wanna see a depiction of charisma, watch his performance in Nuremberg.
>>215688782>Now he's fueling his nepo baby son's shitty film.eurghjust what we need MORE nepo babies
>>215685938yeah you're right he was only good in like 11-12 movies, and won an oscar so he pretty much sucks right guys
>>215684227>>215684357early on he was a rockstar bro who was trying to make it as an actor so he didn't overdo it.Then he won is oscar for playing a tranny and it went to his head and now he goes over the top while clearly being unable to deliver. If his talent was half as big as his ego he would be DDL tier for sure.
>>215689927>early on he was a rockstar bro who was trying to make it as an actor so he didn't overdo it.by the time he got into music he was already a successful actor retard
>>215683490I chuckled
>>215689927>If his talent was half as big as his ego he would be DDL tier for sure.he's easily as good, people like you just don't like him because he's really really good looking
>>215683454Headline: Daniel Slams Cox
>>215683454
Daniel Day Lewis is literally the best living actor so idgaf what anyone else thinks but him.
>>215683509I just wanna know specifically what Strong method acted so hard in Succession to make Cox go "what the fuck man". I think he just started openly doing meth or something cause Kendall did.
>>215683602he was great in scrubs
>>215686047>He sounds like some austistic fuck that is pretty mad normal people can go in and out characters between takes unlike him that needs therapy to remember who he is.kino
>>215683454>I choose to stay and splash aroundWhy? Why not cut the method shit and save the acting for when the director says ACTION? What other job would you "stay in character" 24/7? It's not like bus drivers spend their lunch break driving a bus around because if they don't they'll forget how to drive buses by the afternoon. Holy fuck I hate method actors.
>>215689985>literally the best living actorRoughly equivalent to being the best living prostituteA valid profession I might add so that isn't really a criticism, I'm actually a big supporter of prostitution
>>215686094THIS. Anyone who believes the “Heath Ledger got killed by his method acting for the Joker” story is either a jeet or a conspiracy theorist. IIRC it was his dedication to commit to the Terry Gilliam flick following TDK. The conditions were shitty and he got sick while filming and insisted on continuing. His health worsened and that got him back to chugging painkillers, which ultimately killed him.
>>215683509ddl is a bait taker and cox knows that
>>215683602him as hogan in the first few sharpe movies was kino
bumping based brian
>>215685492Yeah. I don't give a shit how actors go about acting, whatever works for them. And however Jeremy Strong went about it was clearly right for him because he is phenomenal in the show.
>>215685230by acting like you're not mad
>>215685230Dear boy, why not try not getting fucked in the ass by Danny Kaye?
Cox plays the same grumpy old man character since forever, lewis at least tries to le act
>>215683622Hoffman said he was coming off a divorce and had stayed up late partying at Studio 54 using that "method" bullshit as an excuse, and also some people who worked on the film said he was fucking with Olivier throughout the shoot, even though Olivier was old as fuck, just because of some ego bullshit. Manlet Hoffman always wanted to compete with every other actor.
>>215683454hell yeah, get himCox legit bullied my number one boy, JStrong
>Daniel Day-Lewis, who I've always loved, the way that he works, I don't know that he would call it "method", but it's what I consider the idea of method, which is that... you know, he played that thing with the guy who got thrown in prison, the father... he actually spent like 5 days in a prison with guards waking him up all the time, dehydrated, because he wanted to experience that... and I was like... I mean, that's amazing, right? But also kind of useless, because his experience in that is not the character's experience in that. If I'm a hardened gangster and I'm in prison for 6 months, if I actually go and spend 6 months in prison... I'm a wimpy theater actor, so my reaction to prison is gonna be different to the gangster's reaction to prison, so the one to one doesn't actually work, whereas the analogy is what works, which is: gangster is to prison, what David is to what? Because it's my blood, my flesh that is gonna react.DDL BTFO yet again by American chad David Harbour
Lol DDL does take it to meme levels. His antics are treated as fun and bizarre trivia for the movies he does - if DDL pumped out a movie a year or even every two years, the shit he would get up to behind the scenes would be treated with the sort of curiosity as to what insane stunts Tom Cruise gets up to for his movies.
>>215691868>he actually spent like 5 days in a prison with guards waking him up all the time, dehydrated, because he wanted to experience that... and I was like...For In The Name of the Father yes? All he really had to do 'prep' wise is not sleepy for 24 hours before the cameras rolled lol. Because the character was sleep deprived under constant interrogation. I think when I read about that first years ago he also had cold water splashed on him too during his Soviet-style prison LARP
>>215683623>watch video of his brief cameo in Gandhi>comments about how Day-Lewis actually burnt down a whole town of blacks, lynched men, etc. to get into the character's head spacekek
>>215683706give me your hat
>>215683454Brian Cox is wearing lady's glasses. And the other guy's wearing earrings. I assume they've had raunchy gay sex and this is a lover's quarrel.

>>215683454Cox is a decent actor but the majority of the time he just plays himself, an angry old socialist and shabbos goy.
>>215690464From what I heard Ledger was mixing weed, booze, painkillers and sleep medication, and that mix killed him. You don't fuck with sleep medication, that's the killing factor here, but since he was divorcing his wife (if I'm not wrong) and just played the Joker people assumed he went mad, but it was just him being careless with his health
>>215689982Top kek
>>215689985He's pretty good indeed, however he lacks range - he's always playing the same type of autistic fuck that stare at clouds in different settings - and he's a insufferable faggot to be around. Kirk Lazarus in Tropic Thunder was 100% a jab at him
>>215692308There is the reverse of this which is Liam Neeson, story goes that he wanted to smash Lewis' head because he would not talk to anyone if not adressed as "Bill the Butcher".
