It's funny, isn't it? That whenever Leo's brought up, people could only think of Titanic. Why not think of his solid acting roles in 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape', 'Catch Me If You Can', "Basketball Diaries', "Romeo and Juliet'? Oh yeah, cos' he had the misfortune of being in the top-grossing movie of all-time, therefore, to everyone, he's always the foppy-haired fellow who screamed 'I'm The King Of The World!'? Sheesh, you know what? I thought Leo was pretty damned good in Titanic too.
And Matt Damon, ah yes, a CRAPPY ACTOR? Oh yeah, right, of course, yes, let's disregard the Bourne movies, the Kevin Smith movies he appeared in, Good Will Hunting, Talented Mr. Ripley, Saving Private Ryan. Aha, Matt is horrible.
I'm sure everyone's gonna disregard their award credentials too. 'Ahahah! Lalala, I don't believe in the awards they've won, or the Oscars they were nominated for, because they were two blonde pretty boys, therefore they suck!'
Oh, and Andy Lau? He's respected soooo much? He's 5438750909830584085038504850385094850938 times better than these two actors because he's middle-aged? Right, of course, in the 100+ movies he acted in, we can just ignore the fact that 80% of them were crap Wong Jing fare or vanity projects. Right, he's Andy Lau, he's Chinese, he's asian, he's in the original film, therefore, he rocks.
Ah, and Martin Scorsese? He's only some talentless hack who made movies like Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Mean Streets, Taxi Driver. I'm sure ANDREW LAU and his partner are much much much much better than this guy.
It's fun. I'm the only person to defend the making of this film.
