cyberghostface: (Joker)
[personal profile] cyberghostface posting in [community profile] scans_daily


The Clown Prince of Crime's wave of success continues as Joaquin Phoenix was just awarded the Golden Globe for Best Actor for his portrayal of Mistah J. In addition Hildur Guðnadóttir won the Golden Globe for Joker's score.

This is the second time an actor has won a Golden Globe playing the Joker, the first being Heath Ledger. As a bonus their performances are the only times an actor has ever received a Golden Globe for playing a comicbook character.

Interestingly, if Joaquin Phoenix wins, it will be only the second time two actors have won for playing the same character, that is Vito Corleone from the Godfather films.

It's kind of hard to sort of root for this a comic book thing, fact though it is, as even (maybe especially) its biggest boosters are all "No True Scotsman" about it.

I don’t know, as much as the idea of something like a Scarecrow or a Poison Ivy or a Bane movie done in the kind of introspective way this film was done intrigues me, I kind of hope Joker gets to remain that’s own little thing.

News marred by stories of Jaoguin being a method acting ass behind the scenes.

Yeah. I heard horror stories about method acting, of actors who were locked in water tanks until they almost drowned, others who were sent rats and (used?) condoms, others who were hit in the face until they bled. So when I heard that this guy did method acting, I expected the worst. And... it turned out he was just fussy and annoying to work with.

And Henry Cavill taking his Witcher outfit off set to wear at home...and to sleep in.

I think that's less Cavill being a method actor and more that he's a massive, massive nerd for the Witcher franchise.
