Those new AT&T commercials with Luke Wilson are just horrid. They are trying to connect with the audience by being "chill" and breaking the fourth wall, using Luke Wilson, who now looks as average as they come, making his speech vernacular and having him both break the fourth wall and act as if he doesn't belong in the commercial itself and it just making commentary to the other individuals in the shot.
To me, Luke Wilson just comes off as an asshole. Not only are they direct attacks on Verizon, they are poorly written, the information is deceiving, and Wilson is just a horrible spokesperson. His snide grin and impatient attitude makes me dislike him, and I think before seeing these ads I thought he was a likable guy (thanks, Legally Blonde). I know these are scripted, but even for money, Wilson is just hurting his PR. These commercials are particularly bad: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJvUshkxH-w&NR=1] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHV-6lU8lM8&NR=1]
Next topic. That dorky actor.
Michael Cera - I AM SICK OF SEEING YOUR FACE, ESPECIALLY IN QUIRKY INDIE FLICKS.
Indie Directors - THERE ARE MANY MORE DORKS OUT THERE TO ACT IN YOUR MOVIE. Please stop the Apataw trend of reusing the same actors over and over again. It gets sickening and predictable.
Michael Cera plays the same person in every film. He's the lovable, innocent nerd who's just trying to get some womanly TLC, and ends up going through some adventure (and now, going bad) to try and get said womanly TLC. He will get it.
Please, pick someone else!! And I'm sincerely worried about his portrayal of Scott Pilgrim. Pilgrim, at least in the comics, is a cute and cool guy. Michael Cera is none of the above. Losing faith, here.
In other news, I have found the perfect man. At least in my opinion. Fellow ladies, feast your eyes on Hugh Dancy, the tall, dark, handsome, and BRITISH actor:
CAN HAZ PLZ????
