Why, Eric, Why?
I know that I haven't blogged in a while, and I know that some of my dedicated fans have been waiting for the next installment so I want all of you to know that this is important. This is a topic that has riled me into writing again, and the need to express this emotion in print is essential.
Why did I just see an add for a Romantic Comedy with Eric Bana? Why? There is something remarkably beautiful about Eric Bana. Anyone who can take a film dedicated to the representation of Brad Pitt's glorious body and own it with an irrevocable ease is a creature of great and stunning beauty. I am, of course, speaking of "Troy" and how the most amazing performance was provided by the subtle and thoroughly believable portrayal of Hector by the remarkable Eric Bana. I hate to see him reduced to romantic comedy. After films such as The Incredible Hulk (don't scoff) and Munich, why a romantic comedy? Sigh. I just...it's just hard for me, that's all.

Eric wanna get paid.
True, but also "romantic comedy" is a misnomer. There can be poignant truths in a really good RC.
I take it this Eric project is not the next "American President"...?
Of course impossible to tell this early. I only saw the one preview. It's just that he was a paragon...it seems somehow horribly, horribly wrong even if it is well done. Sigh. Maybe it will be wonderful and change my outlook on RC forever....
Looks like Eric's going to be in The Timetraveller's Wife with Racheal McAdams. Interesting casting. I...I like it.
OMG THAT'S PERFECT!!! See, why can't he focus on projects like that? With meaning, and influence. That will be a gorgeous film.
