but the human beings love him.

Movie stars don't really seem like stars but like reusable industry plants

This would be so fucking wholesome

>Pedro Pascal as Indiana Jones

Oh, just do it at this point. The brand is dead as fuck, it will never replace the trilogy, and I want to laugh at how hard it bombs.

The industry is marching to the algorithmic beat, that's why.
They used to have to gamble on possible trends, now they just consult data.

Has he ever put his hands on another dude?

>>212704104 (OP)
His last of us season 1 role was the latest role to give him a boost I think Pedro is hot rn baby

Did it? Taylor Kitsch, Miles Teller, that guy from Avatar were all about as forced as Pedro

I have Pedro Pascal fatigue

Glen Powell

Never seen mr pedro outside of narcos and him playing some gay dude in game of thrones and i doubt anyone else has

>>212704104 (OP)
They'll tell you it us who makes those decisions, not them.

>>212704104 (OP)
It is and it isn't.
Hollywood has forced actors for years, but they used to at least back down once they realised they'd backed the wrong horse, and eased off when they realised people were getting sick of them.
Actors like Pascal and Zendaya are noteworthy because they were starting to face pushback even before the latest projects were in the pipeline, and hollywood shows no signs of stopping.

For me the big difference is old stars used to do real movies inbetween block busters, look at Pitt's career, Depp, even Cruise. Now it's boring franchise slop with them forced into it.

Eet beelongs een a mooseam Mein! Handit over now, essay.

>>212704104 (OP)
The key difference is that forced actors nowadays are also paraded over social media and/or won’t shut the fuck up for attention.
You used to only be exposed to celebrities on their terms, or if a scandal dropped, but now you’re not only seeing them being plastered on adverts for six projects a year, but you also get the social media astroturfing too.
It makes them seem more prevalent than they are.

>>212704104 (OP)
he's hot though so I don't mind

>>212704104 (OP)
I'm sorry sam worthington

>>212709101
He was good in those, and was a decent pick for Mando, but TV seems to be his level. Larger than life movie roles dont suit him.

>>212709101
in the last three years he's in star Wars, a video game adaptation, and capeshit, and that's what most people here watch. So it feels like he's everywhere to them

I think he's trailblazer for being one of the first heterosexual actors pretending to be gay for roles. now all those failing actress come out and get career in return

>>212708418
>be norwegian
>be gay
Many such cases
Sad

Only thing I like about Pedro is that in his 'friendship' with Dakota Johnson she just endlessly bullies him like he deserves.

>>212704104 (OP)

It´s called the star system and it´s pretty much been the essence of Hollywood since the beginning. Stars just used to feel bigger and shine brighter rather than give the feel that anyone could become one regardless of looks or talent/skill.

Same for genres. Back in the day they oversaturated the market with westerns now they oversaturate it with capeshit. The genre changes but the M.O is the same and it will presumably lead to the same results.

In time authors with unique visions will be the only way to stay afloat. Just let things run it´s course.

>>212705848

They´d probably do it had Solo or Dial succeeded but if they learned anything they´ll just bite their lips and let that go of that idea. There is 0 chance the audiences will accept anyone but Ford as Indy right now, they´d be better off shelving off that idea or killing Ford, waiting 75 years and then using AI to make movies with his likeness.

I am indeed Norewgian, but I don't remember making that post. It expresses distaste of paying roughly 200 bucks to smell farts, so if that makes me gay, then okay.

>>212709372
He's mostly in smaller movies. He just did the Materialists movie that came out a few weeks ago. Fantastic four and the Mandalorian movie are the first time he's really a lead in a big budget movie.

There is a difference here. When westerns were being shat out, they weren't being shown in every theatre unless they were the high profile ones. Though I suppose capeshit on tv has a similar niche

>>212708919
Indiana Jones for sure
