Don't shoot the messenger {nm}

Posted by: HarryWarden on Mar 17, 22:22 in response to Jane_Citizen's post You kill me, honestly.

So is the talentless Channing Tatum now an A-list star? HarryWarden Mar 17, 20:49

There are shallow man who watch trash movies too ;-) {nm} karspov Mar 17, 21:09

This isn't about trash movies per se. It's about a terrible actor becoming a draw without any talent. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 17, 21:17

Fire up the presses. First time this has ever happened in Hollywood. RotoHockey Mar 17, 21:30

Doesn't mean it's right. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 17, 21:31

You kill me, honestly. Jane_Citizen Mar 17, 22:03

Don't shoot the messenger HarryWarden Mar 17, 22:22

Am I understanding the messages correctly as: Jane_Citizen Mar 17, 23:08

I thought you said you weren't going to bite? {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Mar 17, 23:09

He gets mad at me when I respond, but I can't imagine that a post like that isn't intended to be provocative. Jane_Citizen Mar 17, 23:23

ROFLOL! accountant_4_Jesus Mar 17, 23:41

just for the record Andre C Mar 18, 01:50

He holds 10 stocks and has less than 2m and last trade was 11/11/11...his game is the forums and provoking responses most of the time. {nm} Catzan Mar 18, 02:07

Oh look forget it, I don't want to get into it. {nm} Jane_Citizen Mar 17, 23:09

You clearly don't understand that adage... {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 04:34

What I said was true. I was just voicing what no one else has the guts to say regarding Tatum's popularity. Unless you actually think he's.. SeekingJusticeInTheatresNow Mar 18, 05:04

But if we disagree, we're not "shooting the messenger," we're shooting the person who wrote the message as well. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 07:01

I haven't seen a CTATU film, so I don't have an opinion. But you haven't defined your terms. And I think SSODE's decision to cast him... second gary Mar 18, 05:30

Do you think Michael Bay would be a popular director even if he didn't put lots of explosions and underwear models in his movies? And since RogerMore Mar 18, 05:52

The Vow was overwhelmingly female whereas the Transformers films are more evenly split SeekingJusticeInTheatresNow Mar 18, 06:29

All that says to me is teenage girls will see boy movies, while teenage boys won't be caught dead at a girl movie. RogerMore Mar 18, 07:08

Yes, between half-wits and quarter-wits, it was more evenly split. But, as Vince McMahon says, 'morons are profit centers, too.' {nm} DTXbro Mar 18, 11:04

And even the bad reviews usually acknowledge that Bay has technical skill as his films are very distinctive in look and style. {nm} SeekingJusticeInTheatresNow Mar 18, 06:30

Yeah, everyone went to see TFRM3 for the editing! And the sound mixing! {nm} RogerMore Mar 18, 07:09

Well, it did get nominated for Oscars;) {nm} SeekingJusticeInTheatresNow Mar 18, 07:15

And at least one can understand Bay when he talks. Tatum's nickname should be Marblemouth. {nm} SeekingJusticeInTheatresNow Mar 18, 06:41

TATUM 2012 [nm] Nwani Mar 17, 22:22

He is bound to be nominated for his performance! Amazing actor! {nm} Catzan Mar 17, 22:24

I was saying the same thing 2 hours ago. Then I walked in on a little movie called 'Abduction'... KHalloway Mar 17, 22:59
