He was... acting.  :P

In a show about pagan gods. Seems the sort of thing that would really annoy conservative Christians

How many conservative Christians do you personally know that are annoyed by campy TV shows about Homeric Greece?  Be honest.

I don't know any conservative Christians so....
I have however seen their moans about Harry Potter, D&D and the like.

Oh, so you don't know shit then....

:lol:
Your gotchaism is so cute.
My logic is valid.
The guy claims he can't get good roles because he is a conservative christian.
Yet he had no trouble launching his career with a role that thoroughly goes counter to conservative christian beliefs.
Something seems fishy.

No, it's not. You are generalizing based on a few instances which you haven't even observed closely.

He's claiming people won't hire him because he's Christian.  Not that he can't do un-Christian roles.

Uh, hello.  Have you ever seen me post moaning about any of that stuff?  No, you haven't, because overall it doesn't bother me, at least not because of theological reasons.

new thor trailer looks like it'll be good.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Looks like they realized nobody cares about Jane Foster, and people want to see more of the cosmic stuff. :P
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

:P she thinks she's too good for comic book movies anyway. I like the light hearted stuff. Not taking yourself too seriously ( DC main cinematic fault)

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Watched Factory Girl, the Edie Sedgewick story.  Not a very good movie, but Sienna Miller looks really good in it.

Took me a long time to place the actor that was playing Bob Dylan--Darth Vader!

I think the laconic Warhol is the best part. Like when he says why he comes to confession and notes that well it is a sin not to.
