I'd love to see you back up this statement. One best actor winner in the past 10 years won for playing a gay character. Two winners were non-white, and won for movies that only an absolute fukktard could call woke, including the one about the gay character. (Are you about to out yourself as such a fukktard?)

But I guess 1/10 is a real shoe-in to you, huh?

There was a legit debate around 2010-ish between Aronofsky and Chris Nolan.

DA was in line to direct a Wolverine movie and/or a Robocop movie, and both would have been incredible.. But the projects fell through and now we're here.

so, apparently, fraser got a 6 minute standing ovation after the movie was premiered in Venice.

All of the hate for this movie aside, it's good to see that fricker get some love. My kids grew up on his ridiculous movies and they were entertaining for the wife and I as well.

The Rock tweeted a congrats to Fraser and thanked him again for welcoming him into the Mummy franchise and giving him his start as an action star.

When will overweight straight actors stop stealing roles made for gigantic queer actors? Are you telling me there's not a single 600lb gay man this part could've gone to?

Airheads, Encinitas Man, Bedazzled, Blast from the Past and Mummies are all a big part of my teenage years.

Happy to see him have the comeback, even if it’s a movie I have no desire to see.

The initial viewing of the film had Brendan F. in tears. Reports say it received a 6 minute standing ovation.

Movie looks like a good one. Not sure what you're talking about.

Probably will be his best performance of his career.

A fat obese gay man who abandoned his child. Nice. You do you Hollywood.


Damn, didn't know he went gay in the movie.. yep, you're right.. hollywood.

Lol it's even in your comment.. I went right past that word...

I will say the trailer looks good. I like a good dialogue and acting movie. Wish this was just the case of him leaving his family and trying to reconnect without that other premise.
