Pick 397

Spoiler:



Chaz Palminteri


Best known for his work in A Bronx Tale, Usual Suspects, Mulholland Falls, and his academy award nominated performance in Bullets over Broadway, I think Chaz helps diversify our heavy comedy loaded studio. He Wrote the play A Bronx Tale, and turned it into one of the most successful mob movies ever. His academy award nomination was in the Woody Allen Film Bullets over Broadway which also makes him a good fit for our studio. And he did show he could do comedy in Analyze This. I think Him and Stone can make a hell of a mob movie together if we decide to go in that direction

Pick 398

Spoiler:



Pierce Brosnan


Wat? We already have the best James Bond ever, why add another one? It doesn't hurt to add another sexy man to our studio, to costar with most of the sexy women we have. Plus having Connery and Brosnan in a James Bond Movie together might be awesome

Besides his James Bond films ( 'Goldeneye', 'Tomorrow Never Dies', 'The World is Not Enough', and 'Die Another Day'), he starred in and produced the Thomas Crown Affair, had a Golden Globe nom for best actor in The Matador, and starred in and co-produced Laws of Attraction. I think he adds some more diversity to our comedy laden team, although he showed he can do great comedy in Mrs Doubtfire

but you admit she's a good value and a good fit for our studio right? I mean if we didnt already have Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz, Goldie Hawn, Demi Moore, Reese Witherspoon, etc I wouldn't have considered it. But she can act, and has won awards for it; she can sing, and has won awards for it in movies and outside of movies; she can direct and has been nominated for awards for it. And she not only directed and produced Yentyl, but she Wrote it too. and it won numerous awards.

oh and i forgot to add this:
From a period beginning in 1969 and ending in 1980, Streisand appeared in the annual motion picture exhibitors poll of Top 10 Box Office attractions a total of 10 times, often as the only woman on the list.

there is one actress who can do everything that Streisand can, but better; well except being an average director.

actors that direct (and even more so produce) carry little weight in my book with some notable exceptions.

Pretty sure I know who sightless means. She is better than Streisand in many ways, including being annoying

I'm pretty sure I know who you are talking about. I've thought about her but she doesn't fit in my studio.

Add babs to my hate list btw right below carrey and drew.

with 41 picks, having people that can do multiple things should help studios

or at least i will obviously argue that

us having 12+ people that can direct is an advantage imo

im pretty sure i know who else you are talking about too. i didnt think of her; streisand is probably a better fit for us anyway

I considered Brosnan after my Connery fail, but I think Daniel Craig is just all around better, and brings pretty much the same thing

both are awesome, if a little different. The thomas crowne affair is one of my favourite films for entertainment, although his scottish accent is painful in the like one place he does it. Craig is a little more serious, but brosnan can do musicals, it seems
