I just didn't know that people loved Eddie Redmayne
Yeah, what did you see him in that made you love him, Ruddo. I just browsed his filmography and I haven't seen any of it and none of it looks very appealing.
Jupiter Ascending
Theory of Everything
Like Minds
The Danish Girl
Also was great on Broadway in the revival of Cabaret

Have you been watching that The Day of the Jackal series? He's great in that
Yes i love it!
Cool! I'll stop mentioning that series in replies then......don't want another Kneecap fiasco
I have no interest whatsoever in The Day of the Jackal. But I do love Eddie... sell me on the show.
I feel like this is a trap
Here's the thing, I fucking hated the 1997 (or whatever) movie. That's my only frame of reference. That movie made me want to die. That's why I had an instant eversion to the show. But I honestly love Eddie Redmayne's work. Do you think it's worth watching the show with all that in mind?

Are we talking the Bruce Willis film here? I didn't like that one much either - this is a much better take on it all. More a modern day Bond type thing perhaps.....or maybe it's just the intro song that causing me to get that vibe

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Haven't watched a Bond film in a few years and somehow never started the Craig era.
This was a good bit of fun and I definitely preferred the tone over the Brosnan era. This is also awesome: Craig was also asked to dye his hair brown for the role but he refused calling it "out of the question"; he instead suggested to cut his hair short for more a "brutal appearance"
