Opinion: Norman Reedus would make a better Kyle Reece than he ever would a John Connor.-UNR
There was this opinion going around a few years ago that Norman Reedus would make a viable replacement for John Connor. While I did, and still do agree, I think he'd play an aged Kyle Reece much better. I got the idea when I was watching T1 a few days ago, and I imagined him playing Reece in place of Michael Biehn during the Chace seen from Tech Noir to getting arrested. I think he would absolutely kill it if they ever made a modern remake.
Just my opinion.

Directors at the Box Office: Guillermo del Toro-UNR
Here's a new edition of "Directors at the Box Office", which seeks to explore the directors' trajectory at the box office and analyze their hits and bombs. I already talked about a few, and as I promised, it's Guillermo del Toro's turn.
When del Toro was about eight years old, he began experimenting with his father's Super 8 camera, making short films with Planet of the Apes toys and other objects. One short focused on a "serial killer potato" with ambitions of world domination; it murdered del Toro's mother and brothers before stepping outside and being crushed by a car. Del Toro studied special effects and make-up with special-effects artist Dick Smith. He spent 10 years as a special-effects make-up designer and formed his own company, Necropia. Eventually, he would get his chance to direct films.
From a box office perspective, how reliable was he to deliver a box office hit?
That's the point of this post. To analyze his career.
Cronos (1992)
"An ancient device. A modern discovery. A terrifying tale of the eternal."
His directorial debut. The film stars Federico Luppi, Ron Perlman, Claudio Brook, Margarita Isabel and Tamara Shanath. A mysterious device designed to provide its owner with eternal life resurfaces after four hundred years, leaving a trail of destruction in its path.
The film struggled at the box office, as there wasn't a lot of support for a Mexican film back then. But del Toro made a very good impression with critics, helping him launch into cult cinema.
-
Budget: $2,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $621,392.
-
Worldwide gross: $621,392.
Mimic (1997)
"For thousands of years, man has been evolution's greatest creation... until now."
His second film. Based on the short story by Donald A. Wollheim, it stars Mira Sorvino, Jeremy Northam, Josh Brolin, Charles S. Dutton, Giancarlo Giannini and F. Murray Abraham. Three years ago, entomologist Dr. Susan Tyler genetically created an insect to kill cockroaches carrying a virulent disease. Now, the insects are out to destroy their only predator, mankind.
While del Toro was excited over working on his first American project, he had a very rough time dealing with Miramax. When Harvey Weinstein saw early footage, there were fights between him and del Toro regarding the tone, with Weinstein claiming the film was not scary enough. It has been reported that one day Weinstein was so infuriated with del Toro that he stormed onto the Toronto set and attempted to instruct del Toro on "how to direct a movie". Weinstein would eventually try to get del Toro fired. Following an intervention from lead actress Mira Sorvino, Weinstein backed down, and principal photography would be completed with del Toro as director in early 1997. However, Weinstein still insisted on having control over the final cut. Producer B.J. Rack later compared making the film to "being a prisoner of a war camp", as del Toro was not given final cut privilege.
While the film had the backing of a big American studio, the film failed to recoup its $30 million budget. The film also received mixed reviews, who noted problems with the story and pacing. Del Toro has expressed his disappointment with the film, calling it "a horrible, horrible, horrible experience."
-
Budget: $30,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $25,480,490.
-
Worldwide gross: $25,480,803.
The Devil's Backbone (2001)
"What's a ghost?"
His third film. It stars Marisa Paredes, Eduardo Noriega, Federico Luppi, Irene Visedo, Fernando Tielve, and Íñigo Garcés. Set in Spain, 1939, during the final year of the Spanish Civil War, the film follows a boy who is left in an orphanage operated by Republican loyalists and haunted by the ghost of a recently-deceased boy.
Del Toro wrote the first draft before writing Cronos. This "very different" version was set in the Mexican Revolution and focused not on a child's ghost but a "Christ with three arms". According to del Toro, and as drawn in his notebooks, there were many iterations of the story, some of which included antagonists who were a "doddering ... old man with a needle," a "desiccated" ghost with black eyes as a caretaker (instead of the living Jacinto who terrorizes the orphans), and "beings who are red from head to foot."
The film received highly positive reviews, who noted as his best film yet. While the film wasn't exactly a megahit, it made a very good amount of money in Mexico.
-
Budget: $4,500,000.
-
Domestic gross: $755,249.
-
Worldwide gross: $6,582,065.
Blade II (2002)
"Faster. Sharper. Deadlier."
His fourth film. The sequel to Blade, it stars Wesley Snipes, Kris Kristofferson, Ron Perlman, Leonor Varela, Norman Reedus and Luke Goss. The film follows the human-vampire hybrid Blade in his continuing effort to protect humans from vampires, finding himself in a fierce battle against a group of mutant vampires who seek to commit global genocide of both vampire and human races. Blade and his human allies are coerced into joining forces with a special elite group of vampires.
After the success of the original film, New Line Cinema and Marvel quickly commissioned a sequel. David S. Goyer had planned to use Morbius but Marvel wanted to keep the character for a franchise of his own. When Stephen Norrington turned down the offer to return, Goyer personally asked del Toro, as he admired his previous films. Del Toro was a big comic book fan, and decided to accept the offer.
Del Toro was tired of the romantic concept of "vampires being tortured Victorian heroes" and wanted vampires to be scary again. Del Toro chose not to alter the script too much from the ideas created by Goyer and Snipes. According to del Toro: "I wanted the movie to have a feeling of both a comic book and Japanese animation. I resurrected those sources and viewed them again. I dissected most of the dailies from the first movie; I literally grabbed about four boxes of tapes and one by one saw every single tape from beginning to end until I perfectly understood where the language of the first film came from. I studied the style of the first one and I think Norrington used a tremendous narrative style. His work is very elegant". Del Toro usually consulted with Snipes on the script, as he believed he was the best person who knew the character.
The film was highly anticipated, and it delivered by earning $155 million worldwide, del Toro's first film to pass the $100 million milestone. But critical reception was mixed; while the action was praised, others criticized the story and lack of character development.
-
Budget: $54,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $82,348,319.
-
Worldwide gross: $155,010,032.
Hellboy (2004)
"Here to protect."
His fifth film. Based on the Dark Horse Comics character created by Mike Mignola, it stars Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Jeffrey Tambor, Karel Roden, Rupert Evans, and John Hurt. In the film, a charismatic demon-turned-investigator named "Hellboy" works with the secretive Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense to suppress paranormal threats, but a resurrected sorcerer seeks to make Hellboy fulfill his destiny by triggering the apocalypse.
Despite working heavily with Mignola, del Toro struggled in finding studios interested, as they disliked the title, script and Perlman's casting. Vin Diesel was linked to the role when the film was being proposed at Universal Pictures, and Jeremy Renner was offered the "title role" but turned it down due to having no attachment to the source material. David Hyde Pierce was hired to provide the voice for Abe Sapien due to Pierce being a "bigger name" and having a "more recognizable sound". Pierce refused to take credit, perform press tours, or attend the premiere out of respect for Doug Jones.
The film received a great response, particularly for del Toro's style. But that didn't translate at the box office; it hit almost $100 million, which was far below its needed break-even point. As a consolation, however, the film was a massive hit on DVD.
-
Budget: $66,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $59,623,958.
-
Worldwide gross: $99,378,985.
Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
"What happens when make-believe believes it's real?"
His sixth film. It stars Ivana Baquero, Sergi López, Maribel Verdú, Doug Jones, and Ariadna Gil. The story takes place in Spain in the summer of 1944, during the early Francoist period, five years after the Spanish Civil War. The narrative intertwines this real world with a mythical world centered on an overgrown, abandoned labyrinth and a mysterious faun creature, with whom the main character, Ofelia, interacts.
For 20 years, del Toro had a notebook with doodles, ideas, drawings and plot bits for an unspecified film. At one point during production, he left the notebook in a taxi in London and was distraught, but the cabbie returned it to him two days later. Del Toro got the idea of the faun from childhood experiences with "lucid dreaming"; every midnight, he would wake up, and a faun would gradually step out from behind the grandfather's clock.
The film employs some computer-generated imagery in its effects, but it mostly uses complex make-up and animatronics. Del Toro himself performed the noises for the toad. The mandrake root is a combination of animatronics and CGI. Del Toro wanted the fairies "to look like little monkeys, like dirty fairies", but the animation company had the idea to give them wings made of leaves. Disappointed with the subitles for Devil's Backbone, del Toro himself decided to make the subtitles. While the film is titled Pan's Labyrinth in North America, del Toro said the faun is not Pan.
When the film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, it was met with a record 22-minute standing ovation. It received del Toro's greatest reviews and was quickly named as one of the best films of the century, and of all time. The language barrier didn't stop it from finding an audience: it earned $83 million worldwide, making it one of the biggest numbers for a Mexican/Spanish film. It received 6 Oscar nominations, with del Toro achieving his first nomination for Best Original Screenplay. It won for Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography and Best Makeup.

Budget: $19,000,000.

Domestic gross: $37,646,380.
-
Worldwide gross: $83,863,565.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)
"Believe it or not, he's the good guy."
His seventh film. The sequel to Hellboy, it stars Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Doug Jones, Jeffrey Tambor, and John Hurt. In the film, Hellboy and the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense must battle a mythical prince who plans to reclaim the world for his magical kindred.
While Hellboy wasn't a box office success, it earned a huge amount of renue through DVD sales. This convinced the producers that there was enough interest for a sequel. After Sony chose to pass on the project, Universal picked it up. Del Toro and Mignola started considering what comics to adapt, before deciding that a completely original idea seemed best for the project. Thanks to Pan's Labyrinth, del Toro didn't struggle in getting the film made on his own terms.
The film received great reviews, and some noted it as an improvement over the original. The film's hype really seemed on point, as the film opened with $34.5 million on its opening weekend, far bigger than the original. However, the arrival of a small indie flick called The Dark Knight on its second weekend heavily damaged its legs. It went from #1 to #5 on just one weekend, falling a disastrous 71%. It never recovered, and closed with $75 million domestically and $160 million worldwide, failing to recoup its $85 million budget. Like the original, it performed quite well on home media. While del Toro and Perlman were insistent that a third film would happen, it was eventually scrapped.
-
Budget: $85,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $75,986,503.
-
Worldwide gross: $160,388,063.
Pacific Rim (2013)
"Go big or go extinct."
His eighth film. It stars Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day, Robert Kazinsky, Max Martini, and Ron Perlman. The film is set in the not-too-distant future, when Earth is at war with the Kaijus, colossal sea monsters which have emerged from an interdimensional portal on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. To combat the monsters, humanity unites to create the Jaegers, gigantic humanoid mechas, each controlled by two co-pilots whose minds are joined by a mental link. Focusing on the war's later days, the story follows Raleigh Becket, a washed-up Jaeger pilot called out of retirement and teamed with rookie pilot Mako Mori as part of a last-ditch effort to defeat the Kaiju and their secret masters once and for all.
While walking on the beach near Santa Monica Pier, Travis Beacham imagined a giant robot and a giant monster fighting to the death. He then came up with the concept of the robots being controlled by two pilots, wondering what would happen if one dies. Legendary Pictures bought his script, and del Toro was fascinated by the concept. When one of his projects was cancelled, del Toro decided to focus on Pacific Rim. He introduced ideas he had always wished to see in the genre, such as a Kaiju birth and a Kaiju attack seen from a child's perspective. At $180 million, it was his most expensive film. He cast many actors based on his familiarity with other projects. For example, he cast Charlie Day because he liked his performance in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In return, the show got del Toro to play Pappy McPoyle in 2 episodes.
The film received great reviews, particularly for its special effects and action sequences. Although that didn't exactly translate into a box office hit. The film had a modest performance in North America and other territories, which was quite bad considering its budget. And so China came to the rescue; it grossed a huge $111 million in the market, becoming the biggest territory for the film and allowing it to pass $400 million worldwide. So not a bomb, but not exactly a huge hit as expected. Too bad there were was no sequel.
-
Budget: $180,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $101,802,906.
-
Worldwide gross: $411,002,906.
Crimson Peak (2015)
"Beware."
His ninth film. It stars Mia Wasikowska, Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain, Charlie Hunnam, and Jim Beaver. The story, set in Edwardian-era England, follows an aspiring author who travels to a remote Gothic mansion in Cumberland, England with her new husband and his sister. There, she must decipher the mystery behind the ghostly visions that haunt her new home.
Del Toro convinced Universal in greenlighting Crimson Peak, as they kept in touch during the making of Pacific Rim. He said he wanted the film to take the horror genre to its roots, "I think people are getting used to horror subjects done as found footage or B-value budgets. I wanted this to feel like a throwback." He wanted to create a large-scale horror film in the tradition of those he grew up watching, such as The Omen, The Exorcist, and The Shining.
The film fared solid, but not great reviews. While the film was praised for its visual style, it was also criticized for its thin story and weak characters. It also struggled at the box office; it made just $74 million against its $55 million budget. Ouch.
-
Budget: $55,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $31,090,320.
-
Worldwide gross: $74,679,822.
The Shape of Water (2017)
"A fairy tale for troubled times."
His tenth film. It stars Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Octavia Spencer. Set in 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, the film follows a mute custodian at a high-security government laboratory who falls in love with a captured humanoid amphibian creature, and decides to help him escape from death at the hands of an evil colonel.
The project was primarily inspired by del Toro's childhood memories of seeing Creature from the Black Lagoon and wanting to see the Gill-man and Kay Lawrence succeed in their romance. After failing to convince the Universal executives in accepting his pitch, Searchlight Pictures got involved. Del Toro cast Sally Hawkins after watching Fingersmith and Happy-Go-Lucky, wanting her to emulate Stan Laurel's performances. He also wanted Ian McKellen to play Giles, as he based the character on his performance in Gods and Monsters. Unfortunately, McKellen was unavailable and Richard Jenkins was cast instead.
The film received critical acclaim, quickly named as one of del Toro's best films. And despite the weird premise, it was a huge success for del Toro, as it earned almost $200 million worldwide, becoming one of Searchlight's biggest films. After winning the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, it received 13 Oscar nominations. It won Best Production Design and Best Score, and del Toro would finally get his first Oscar for Best Director and Best Picture.
-
Budget: $20,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $63,859,435.
-
Worldwide gross: $195,243,464.
Nightmare Alley (2021)
"Man or beast."
His 11th film. Based on the novel of the same name by William Lindsay Gresham, it stars Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette, Willem Dafoe, Richard Jenkins, Rooney Mara, Ron Perlman, Mary Steenburgen, and David Strathairn. It follows a charming and ambitious carnival worker with a mysterious past who takes big risks to boost his career.
The film was a huge deviation from del Toro's works, as it features no supernatural or fantasy elements. The novel was previously adapted in 1947, but del Toro was more interested in making a more faithful adaptation. Leonardo DiCaprio was eyed to star in the film, but Bradley Cooper replaced him. Del Toro stated that he and Cooper quickly connected with each other when del Toro met Cooper in the latter's house to discuss the role.
The film received a solid response, although some criticized its length and story. Despite a $60 million budget, the film didn't find an audience, earning just $39 million. Despite that, the film still received 4 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture.
-
Budget: $60,000,000.
-
Domestic gross: $11,338,107.
-
Worldwide gross: $39,629,195.
Pinocchio (2022)
"Love will give you life."
His 12th film. Based on The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi, it stars Gregory Mann, David Bradley, Ewan McGregor, Burn Gorman, Ron Perlman, John Turturro, Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, Tim Blake Nelson, Christoph Waltz, and Tilda Swinton. Set in Fascist Italy during the interwar period, it follows Pinocchio's life as he adventures the world.
The film was a lifelong passion project for del Toro, who watched the 1940 Disney version when he was a kid. He loved it, and by his teenage years, yearned to make his own dark version. In 2003, he discovered Gris Grimly's illustrations for the 2002 edition of Carlo Collodi's book, portraying Pinocchio as a puppet with a long, pointed nose and spindly limbs, with gestures that del Toro felt captured the energy of an unruly but otherwise goodhearted puppet. This was the vision that del Toro wanted to create, but he wasn't getting support from the studios in greenlighting the stop-motion project. Fortunately, Netflix saved the project in 2018, allowing him to fulfill his dream.
The film was acclaimed by critics and audiences, particularly for its dark tone. As it was a Netflix original film, there are no box office numbers available. Over its first seven days of digital release, the film logged over 10.91 million hours viewed worldwide. Del Toro won his third Oscar, now for Best Animated Film.
The Future
He's currently filming his new film, Frankenstein, for Netflix. It will star Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, Lars Mikkelsen, David Bradley, Christian Convery, Charles Dance, and Christoph Waltz.
Other Projects
He has written some films that he never directed, such as The Hobbit films, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark and The Witches.
He is also an executive producer on films like Megamind, Puss in Boots, Kung Fu Panda 2 and Kung Fu Panda 3. He was also a producer on Rudo y Cursi, The Book of Life, Pacific Rim: Uprising and Antlers.
In television, he created two shows. The first is The Strain, which is based on a book he wrote with Chuck Hogan, and he directed the first episode. The other is Trollhunters, which is based on his novel.
The Unrealized Films
Well, you couldn't make a post on del Toro without bringing up the projects he never got to make. So let's delve into a few of them.
-
Exorcist: Chapter 4 Verse I: Del Toro pitched a fourth Exorcist film to Morgan Creek, which would have seen Father Merrin brought in to investigate the murder of a priest by a possessed child in the Vatican during World War II. Del Toro said that Morgan Creek liked the story, but they didn't want a single exorcism in the film. Oh the irony.
-
Creature from the Black Lagoon: A longtime fan of the 1954 film, del Toro talked with Universal over directing a remake. He envisioned a film which would focus more on the creature's perspective, where the Gill-man ends up together with the female lead. The studio would reject this pitch, although del Toro would use these elements for The Shape of Water.
-
The Wind in the Willows: Del Toro started working with Disney on an animated film adaptation of Kenneth Grahame's novel. The film would have been animated using CGI animation, but the project was abandoned following many delays. He said why he left; "It was a beautiful book, and then I went to meet with the executives and they said, 'Could you give Toad a skateboard and make him say, "radical dude" things?' and that's when I said, 'It's been a pleasure...'"
-
Halo: Del Toro started working with Peter Jackson on a Halo adaptation, with del Toro writing the script with D.B. Weiss. His project envisioned a brother vs. brother story between the character Master Chief and his twin, who sides with the villain. Del Toro would leave to focus on Hellboy II: The Golden Army.
-
Doctor Strange: Del Toro and Neil Gaiman pitched a film to Marvel Studios, wherein Gaiman wrote the script and del Toro would direct. This version would have seen the character as an alcoholic, disbarred physician in the late 1920s/1930s living in Greenwich Village for 90 years without aging. It would have also been heavily inspired by the art of Steve Ditko. Gaiman was especially interested in including the character Clea, but the studio was not interested.
-
The Hobbit: In 2008, it was reported that del Toro would direct a two-part film adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy novel. Del Toro envisioned the first film as a direct adaptation of the novel, with the second bridging the gap between The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings films. After spending two years in New Zealand working on pre-production, del Toro left the project due to ongoing delays and was replaced by Peter Jackson. The films were expanded to a trilogy during production, with del Toro still credited as co-writer of all three.
-
Hellboy III: Del Toro has been trying to get a final film made, but is stuck in development hell. His film "was to have Hellboy finally come to terms with the fact that his destiny, his inevitable destiny, is to become the beast of the Apocalypse, and having him and Liz face the sort of, that part of his nature, and he has to do it, in order to be able to ironically vanquish the foe that he has to face in the third film. He has to become the beast of the Apocalypse to be able to defend humanity, but at the same time, he becomes a much darker being." Del Toro said that the project is unlikely to happen, as studios are not interested and also listed the decline of DVD sales (which got the sequel greenlit) as a big reason why.
-
Thor: In 2008, del Toro entered talks with Marvel Studios to direct an adaptation of the character. He said that he loved the character of Loki, and wished to incorporate more original Norse mythology into the film; including a "really dingy Valhalla, Vikings and mud". He would leave the project to focus on The Hobbit.
-
Slaughterhouse-Five: Del Toro planned "a more literal interpretation" of the Kurt Vonnegut novel than shown in the 1972 film adaptation. In July 2013, del Toro revealed that he and screenwriter Charlie Kaufman had planned how they had wanted to adapt the work, though del Toro joked; "How can I commit to it being my next movie until there's a screenplay? Charlie Kaufman is a very expensive writer!"
-
Van Helsing: Del Toro worked on a reimagining, with Tom Cruise attached to star and produce.
-
The Haunted Mansion: In 2010, del Toro confirmed he would make a new version of the Disney theme park ride. He said he didn't want it to be a comedy, emphasizing that he wanted it to be scary and fun. After del Toro submitted the script, Disney liked it, but considered it too scary for kids. Eventually, his version would be scrapped and a new version would be released in 2023, becoming a critical and commercial bomb.
-
Dark Universe: Del Toro got involved in a Justice League Dark adaptation. This version would feature appearances by John Constantine, Swamp Thing, The Spectre, Deadman and others. Del Toro wanted Matt Ryan to play Constantine, feeling the movie and TV show could co-exist. By 2015, he left the project.
-
Silent Hills: In 2014, del Toro was confirmed to work with Hideo Kojima on the ninth installment in the Silent Hill video game franchise. However, the video game was cancelled the following year. Del Toro has since said that he does not plan to work in the video game industry ever again.
-
At the Mountains of Madness: An adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's novella, it has been stuck in development hell for the past 20 years. Originally set up at DreamWorks, it passed to Universal when del Toro had a first-look deal with them. After delays, it was finally announced on 2010 that the film would be in 3D and that James Cameron would produce. Subsequently, he had Tom Cruise signed as the lead. However, Universal shelved the project when del Toro wanted a $150 million budget and R rating. No progress ever since. Del Toro says he hopes to eventually make it, although he is unsure if Cruise will still be part of it due to his age.

He made 12 films, but only 11 went to theaters. Across those 11 films, he has made $1,251,880,292 worldwide. That's $113,807,299 per film.
The Verdict
Inconsistent.
Del Toro has crafted an impressive resume. Even his weaker works still have their charms. The problem is that he has been struggling with the budgets, and that in turn prevents his films from breaking even. As he said, DVD sales were the reason Hellboy II was greenlit, but it was the decline of that market that made it more difficult to get a third film made. And that's before we even get to the amount of unrealized projects. A unique director that simply struggled in having the box office success he deserves. And that's a shame, as you can tell he is very passionate about his work.
Hope you liked this edition. You can find this and more in the wiki for this section.
The next director will be Todd Phillips. Very fitting, considering we just had a teaser trailer for Joker: Folie à Deux.
I asked you to choose who else should be in the run and the comment with the most upvotes would be chosen. Well, we'll later talk about... Wes Craven. A horror legend.
This is the schedule for the following four:
| Week | Director | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| April 15-21 | Todd Phillips | Who's laughing now? |
| April 22-28 | John Carpenter | Is that really it? No more films? |
| April 29-May 5 | Danny Boyle | It was a long wait, but 28 Years Later is finally happening. |
| May 6-12 | Wes Craven | A horror legend. |
Who should be next after Craven? That's up to you. But for that week, we have a theme.
And the theme is: Actor-directors. And I'm not talking about directors that occassionally act, some just in cameos. I'm talking celebrities more known for acting, that regularly direct. So there are two requirements here: the director must have a prominent acting career, and he must have directed at least 5 films. That means actors like Kevin Costner, Bradley Cooper, Greta Gerwig, John Krasinski and Jordan Peele are ineligible here.
So what actor-director should be?
Howard hates Norman Reedus?-UNR

Does anyone else wonder why they don’t find this story more confusing? -UNR
I’m typically not one for convoluted plots but for some reason this game hits a weird tonal sweet spot for me where I’m hanging onto every word in the cut scenes. It’s the same with the Metal Gear games for me — how do you describe the cognitive effect of Hideo Kojima’s games, where they simultaneously are self-aware, self-serious, and aggressively ridiculous? I don’t like technobabble, I don’t like characters spouting exposition at each other (a miserable preference as a gamer), but I fucking love this weird ass game. My favorite thing so far is when Norman Reedus suddenly breaks the 4th wall so he can aggressively point at his toy soldiers. Fuckin genius.

Kojima on Elle Fanning's character on DS2-UNR
https://twitter.com/naven0m/status/1621128277501923328
Translations:
"I really can't share much, but it's very, very important personal. And yes, I created the character with Elle in mind, and I was very afraid that she would be rejected, and I would have to cut many important scenes."
"Kojima mentioned that he changed a lot in the script after seeing the movements and nature of actress Elle Fanning in the photo sessions, and even added completely new scenes"
So, as happened on Death Stranding with Norman Reedus, Kojima will not just use the actress to give life to her character but her life and acting carrier. Fanning will be the character and the character will be Fanning. Reflections.
Eyes Wide Shut - Hidden in plain sight-UNR
https://boydrinksink.squarespace.com/eyes-wide-shut-hidden-in-plain-sight
A long but great reading about the Kubrik masterpiece. What does it have to do with Kojima's work? Everything. From a superficial level to what you "cant' see". Kojima's universe does not end once their games do, and this article will help you to understand the job of these other collaborators around him. It's all a big canvas that include multiple media, multiple styles, but they all share one purpose.
Once you understand the basic principles of how his multiverse works, you won't ask yourself anymore things like: "why does ads for Death Stranding or from a Norman Reedus tv show appear inside the game itself", "why does a game actor character needs to parallel his real life" or "how all this little details seem to have invaded many other unrelated products".
Thanks to tekfx19 for pointing out the whole symbolism behind Eyes Wide Shut.

Some random thoughts on TWD-UNR
Over the past couple of months I binged the entirety of TWD and these are some thoughts and observations I had during my journey:
Possible Spoilers Ahead
- Walkers in the early seasons of TWD were much better: During the early seasons of TWD, especially S1/S2, the Walkers were much more ambulatory, agile and aggressive. In my opinion the Walkers were much more terrifying that way. And the reactions to Walkers were way more justified. But later the Walkers seemed dull, slow and much more cliche generic zombie types, yet people reacted to them the same way, which felt kinda forced.
- The rules of the Dead don't seem to really apply: I noticed at times that there were dead people around that didn't seem to be reanimated or never did. In later seasons, this wasn't such a big thing because maybe they had been stabbed/shot in the head by someone else long ago. But in the early seasons, it didn't make much sense to me why some people just died, and didn't reanimate. Case in point, in S2 E1 when Carl finds the melee weapons in the truck on the highway, there is a dead guy inside. Completely dead, doesn't reanimate, he is just dead. Based on what Jenner said at the CDC, it seemed a universal constant that if you die, you reanimate, until you get put down with a brain trauma. But that apparently isn't the case?
- Norman Reedus/Daryl Dixon is 100 proof awesome: Since I only binged TWD this year, my only previous exposure to Norman Reedus was as Anton Hesse in "Hawaii 5-0" whose death resulted in the murder of John McGarrett, Steve's father. So right off the bat I was predisposed to disliking Daryl. And Season 1 didn't do a lot to change that predisposition. But then Season 2 opened my eyes. The way he took the search for Sophia as a personal quest and how he really became a member of the group was so awesome. But what really put him over for me was the Cherokee Rose speech he gave to Carol. That scene is definitely in my Top 10 of all scenes for TWD. Not only is Daryl my favorite character in the entire TWDU, but is also in my Top 20 of all fictional characters, period.
- Governor/The Saviors are the best villains in the entire TWDU: Both Governor and Negan/Saviors delivered what I consider to be the ideal villain for the post-apocalyptic setting of TWD. Especially so with The Saviors, the whole Mad Max / 3rd World Warlord vibe really fit with the feeling of TWD. At least to me, they were far more believable in the setting of TWD than Commonwealth or CRM. And Jeffery Dean Morgan as Negan...he certainly delivered the goods. I remember sitting through Season 7, my teeth clinched most of the time out of pure anger/hatred for Negan.
- If you ask me, CRM caused the apocalypse: Total tin foil hat conspiracy theory, but the only way CRM could exist the way it does is if they knew what was going to happen before it did, therefore making them the prime suspects for triggering the apocalypse. The thing that I find so jarring is their weapons and war material. It doesn't appear to be repurposed US Military equipment. They have their own uniforms, special equipment, experimental weapons and tons of vehicles that were operating long after the rest of the country went to horses and wagons. The only way you can explain that is if they were manufacturing and stockpiling BEFORE the apocalypse. Their existence feels akin to a Bond Villain's nefarious scheme to remake the world in their own image. I know Beale told a story to Rick (in TOWL) about the origin of the CRM, but frankly I think he was lying his ass off. None of the cities in the CRM could provide ALL the manufacturing and refining capabilities needed to create the CRM army after the apocalypse. To my knowledge, no US City is so complete as to offer food processing, fuel refining, weapons manufacturing, Tech research and vehicle manufacturing all in the same city. And Philly, Omaha and Portland together doesn't account for the totality of their needs either. Furthermore, how was their existence kept so secret, even in the early days of the apocalypse? Unless of course they were prepared for it before it even happened.
- Commonwealth just baffles me: Part of the Commonwealth society makes total sense. They took over a town, they were effective at scavenging it. They set up an economy based on the old world, and they run it like the old world, but with more disparity, to the point of a caste system. But then you have the military arm of the Commonwealth, which is running around in brand spanking new stormtrooper armor, brand new vehicles, and fully & uniformly armed...it can't be readily explained. Had Commonwealth been shown using repurposed SWAT body armor, surplus military equipment (like they raided the National Guard armory) and driving repurposed Humvees and MRAPs, it would have been much more believable. But just like CRM, they seem to have been equipped out of thin air with technology that didn't even exist before the world fell apart, much less built/manufactured after the world fell. So was Milton part of some secret society that knew the world was about to fall, and thus began prepping before the apocalypse actually occurred? Did Milton splinter off from the CRM to run her own little empire? Why wasn't Commonwealth wiped out and stripped of it's resources by CRM?
- TOWL should have been Season 10/11 of TWD: The story of what happened to Rick, and what Michonne's life was like while searching for Rick, was too important to be crammed into 6 measly episodes of a micro-series. Furthermore, the CRM and Commonwealth are so similar in nature, much of the TOWL story (overthrowing oppressive post-apocalyptic regime bent on ruling all) is redundant. So why not tell the epic story of Rick's fate and Michonne's journey in a full season of episodes? Please keep in mind I didn't read the graphic novels, so I don't know what could be omitted or not, but in my mind CRM was a better focus for that kind of story-telling, and was cross-seeded with FTWD, so having CRM and Rick/Michonne be the focus of the final season(s) of TWD makes the most sense to me.
- There are so many that should have been part of the finale of TWD: I get that in a show where lots of people die, it is a tall order. But through flash backs, dream sequences, whatever...there were so many great characters that built the franchise who should have been there for the end. Herschel, Glenn, Abraham, Lori, Carl, Shane, Andrea and Sasha to name a few. I know Herschel would have been hard since Scott Wilson died in 2018, but could have been covered through reusing some previous footage. But these characters (and many others) were an important part of the foundation that took TWD through 11 seasons, and seeing them again if only briefly would have been awesome.

IJW: Boondock Saints (1999)-UNR
I was looking for something mindless to watch and saw that Boondock Saints was on Amazon Prime and decided "why the hell not." Now I don't really regret my decision to watch but I am disappointed. Is it a bad movie? Yeah. Is the the worst movie ever? No. Is it nearly two hours of wasted potential? Definitely.
That is what makes me so confused and disappointed in this movie. There are slivers of good ideas and interesting story. Willem Dafoe seems to be having the time of his life acting in it. The chemistry between Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery is pretty believable. The general idea could've been something it just isn't. A modern crusade against gangs, mobs, mafias, ect. Could be an interesting story to tell. The ball was just dropped then popped. I think if a better writer and director got ahold of the same basic idea and had most of the same cast something good could've been made. I'm not looking for Godfather or Goodfellas level storytelling but give me something so I'm not so confused and disappointed. I went in with no expectations and left with what-ifs.
My main gripes with this movie are not as many as a lot of people who critique it but I have a few. Like a lot of people I find Rocco pretty annoying but he's not more than plot item. Funny Man. Because everyone is laughing at you not with you. Why the fuck is Ron Jeremy here? How is the big bad such an incompetent group of Italian stereotypes? Not once did I really believe any of the gang shit going. Did the director see any mafia based stuff. Papa Joe felt like someone saw 30 seconds of Tony from the Sopranos and ran with it. Also he barely says a damn thing the entire movie. I do not believe this guy is the head of a major crime family at all. The pointless and tasteless racism and sexism is very just mind-numbing and painful to sit through. Racism could've been used as a plot device if they went with the Irish-American and Italian-American fighting that was very prominent in the mafia settings. Instead of slurs there could've been something compelling made out of it. I just see so many half ideas that could've been something.
Now the humor. Rocco isn't funny. The rule of thumb joke, I don't see why it's been praised by people. It's pretty dumb. To me all the humor in the movie came from Willem Dafoe. The walking oxymoron. The homophobic gay man. This insane, eccentric, eclectic. mad genius, who is just killing every scene he's in. I found myself doing 10 second skips a lot during the movie but when Dafoe was on screen I was dialed in. That investigation towards the end where he's tearing his clothes off, crawling in the dirt, screaming like a child was so hilarious to me. He delivers his lines perfectly in every scene. After watching it I feel like I understand his Green Goblin portrayal even more. I honestly think if the brothers took a back seat and this was a detective drama with Dafoe as the lead actor and all the Saint stuff being in flashbacks as Dafoe describes the crime scene similar to how it already is in the movie it would've been so much better. I don't need to follow Rocco fuck Rocco. I wanna watch Dafoe tear down detectives, describe a crime scene with almost prophetic power, and then decide that the Saints are in the right and help them towards the end. We can keep the idea that the Saints are "good guys" but now I just want Paul Smecker movie.
At the end of the day I think is a mid and a bit heavy handed. I'm all for over the top action but this felt like a Seagal movie that hired better actors.

Have you ever wondered what signs fictional characters are?-UNR
I love doing this with TV shows. Specifically I like to guess what their placements are, like a group of what placements their sun/moon are and also rising/mercury sometimes too. I did this while watching Impractical Jokers, I know that’s not a fictional show but I was able to pretty accurately guess what signs they were. Joe and Sal were easiest to guess for me: Joe is a Gemini (obviously) and Sal is a Scorpio Sun and Taurus Moon. I knew he HAD to have strong presence of fixed signs, specifically Scorpio or Taurus because of his tendency to obsess over his appearance and material things, as well as his incredible resistance to doing embarrassing things. Murr and Q were harder to guess. I thought Murr was either Aquarius or Gemini because he’s pretty weird, turns out he’s Taurus Sun Gemini Moon (which I guess was pretty close because fixed + Gemini). I couldn’t guess Quinn but turns out he’s a Pisces Sun and Leo/Virgo moon depending on what websites you check (time of birth not exact).
Anyway have you done this with actual fictional characters? I’m watching the Walking Dead right now and wondering what signs Daryl Dixon might be. He’s extremely private and doesn’t show his emotions, but he’s also not afraid to get shit done. Though he seems hard on the outside he’s incredibly soft inside. I’m thinking, if he were real, he must have some Scorpio in his chart, as well as Cardinal signs (specifically Aries or Capricorn) and possibly some Virgo in his chart too.
I just love to think about this stuff lol. IRL Norman Reedus is actually a Capricorn Sun, Leo Moon and Scorpio rising. It makes total sense when you see videos of him off screen, he’s such a goober lmao. But because of his Scorpio rising he can really get into the intensity of his characters and I think that’s why a lot of people are so obsessed with him. He’s just alluring and mysterious.
Anyway what do you guys think? If you’ve seen TWD, what signs do you think the characters are? Have you personally done this with any other tv show’s characters? And if so what is your SMR? (I’m a Gemini moon and I’m constantly thinking about random shit lmfao 💀)

15 Actors Who Left Such A Lasting Impression On Writers, They Ultimately Had Roles Created For Them-UNR
- First, in Parks and Recreation, the role of April Ludgate didn't exist before Aubrey Plaza came in to audition. Allison Jones, who cast the show, called creator Michael Shur and said, "I just met the weirdest girl I've ever met in my life. You have to meet her and put her on your show." April was then written for Aubrey.
- In Bottoms, the role of Josie was written specifically for Ayo Edebiri by writers Emma Seligman and Rachel Sennott. However, Ayo recalled being asked to audition. She said, "I'm still slightly salty about it. I don't know who made me audition, but I passed."
- In Barbie, even before Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig approached Ryan Gosling about playing Ken, Greta wrote the role for him. She even wrote "Ken (Ryan Gosling)" in the script. Greta recalled, "I thought I was writing it for Ryan Gosling, even though I don't know Ryan and have never met him, but I imagined him in it."
- In Euphoria, creator Sam Levinson wrote Ali for Colman Domingo. Colman said he feels "incredibly blessed" because Ali has been a dream role. His work on the show earned him a 2022 Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series.
- In The Holiday, writer and director Nancy Meyers revealed she wrote the role of Iris with Kate Winslet in mind. At the time, Kate told Nancy that having a part written for her had never happened before.
- In Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Stephanie Beatriz originally auditioned for the role of Amy Santiago but was then asked to return for the role of Megan. Eventually, Megan turned into Rosa Diaz thanks to what Stephanie brought to the role. In particular, Rosa's coming out storyline was mainly inspired by Stephanie's own coming out journey.
- In The Shape of Water, writer and director Guillermo del Toro wrote the role of Elisa with Sally Hawkins in mind. He was so determined to have her star in the movie that while drunk at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2013, he spotted Sally and ran right up to her. Guillermo recalled, "It's the first time I see her. I say, 'Sally — Guillermo.' I hugged her. And I said, 'I'm writing a movie for you where you fall in love with a fish-man!'"
- In Gilmore Girls, after initially auditioning for Rory Gilmore, Liza Weil had the role of Paris Geller created for her after the casting directors and creator Amy Sherman-Palladino loved her so much.
- In Fleabag, while creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge knew she wanted to explore religion "very, very early on," the priest character became who he was after she "imagined Andrew Scott in that role." By writing the "Hot" Priest for Andrew, Phoebe was able to make "this man complex and three-dimensional, and sort of a match for Fleabag."
- In The Last Song, author Nicholas Sparks was beginning to work on a new story when he heard Miley Cyrus loved A Walk to Remember, and Disney producers were looking for a story in a similar vein for her to star in. While Nicholas had an idea for The Last Song previously, Miley's interest prompted him to focus "more intently on it" and create the character of Ronnie with her in mind.
- In Anatomy of a Fall, director and cowriter Justine Triet wrote the leading role for Sandra Hüller, with whom she had previously worked with. She even named the character Sandra, hoping to convince the real Sandra to say yes to the movie. The role ultimately earned Sandra an Academy Award nomination.
- In Pulp Fiction, writer and director Quentin Tarantino created the role of Jules Winnfield for Samuel L. Jackson. After Samuel auditioned for Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino remembered him and said he was writing something for him. His work earned him an Academy Award nomination in 1995.
- In The Walking Dead, Norman Reedus was so in love with the original pilot script he came in and read for Merle Dixon, even though the role had already been cast. Creator Frank Darabont reportedly loved Norman so much that he created the character of Daryl Dixon, who doesn't exist in Robert Kirman's original comics.
- In Bridesmaids, Brynn reportedly didn't exist in the original script until Rebel Wilson came in and auditioned for Melissa McCarthy's character. While she didn't get that role, they added her in as Brynn. Rebel said, "There was never supposed to be two roommates, only one."
- And finally, in Frasier, the original concept for the series did not include Frasier Crane having a brother. However, casting assistant Sheila Guthrie came across David Hyde Pierce's headshot and clips of The Powers That Be and suggested it to the creators. They looked at the footage and "fell in love with him." Thus, the character of Niles was created.

Unpopular Opinion About A Future Reunion-UNR
Unpopular Opinion: I like Daryl but I don’t think Norman Reedus is that great of an emotional actor, he’s off by like 5° in every emotional scene so with that being said, a reunion with him and Rick wouldn’t be as fulfilling as some would assume…. Seeing them both on the same show, in the same scene would be enough but this fanbase HAS to see Rick reunite with Daryl in this emotional “you’re my brother” way. It’s just a no for me. Even within the TWD storyline and the years spent apart between him and Rick, Daryl isn’t ‘that’ relevant. People want this emotional encounter between Rick and Daryl then a hug from Carol

Romance with Single Mom and Biker?-UNR
Hi there! The book I'm looking for involves a (blonde?) single mother with a son who's not a baby but not fully grown either. Her ex husband/lover/father of her kid has partial custody. He's always put her down. The MC is either a biker or mechanic with a Daryl Dixon/Norman Reedus vibe to him. They meet by chance, and don't have a prior connection that I can recall. He's apprehensive because of her kid but persistent. This is a romance with smut and there is a scene with her...bent over the back of a car seat. That is all I can recall from it. I've had someone suggested Reaper's Legacy by Joanna Wylde already, but from the sample I read it doesn't seem to be it. Any help is appreciated! Thank you!
Help?-UNR
Hi, I'm new here and to reddit in general. I don't know if anyone can help me, but I am looking for a specific book. I don't remember the title or character names. I've been searching for it on my own with no luck. It is romance and has smut in it.
So here's what I can remember: The fc is blonde (I think) and has a son (not a baby but not grown). Her ex and her are not on the best of terms as he's always put her down. The mc is a biker (I think, or at least mechanic). He gives off Norman Reedus/Daryl Dixon vibes. There is a scene with them in the back of a car...and that's all I got.
I had read it on my friend's kindle many years ago, and for whatever reason it's popped into my head and won't let me forget it. She doesn't have access to the account so she can't get in to tell me the title. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

For me, it has to be: 1. Andrew Lincoln 2. Jeffrey Dean Morgan (mostly season 7) 3. John Bernthal 4. Michael Rooker 5. Maybe Norman Reedus?
I know Shane and Merle weren't in the show as long as many actors, but they both absolutely killed their roles. When I think of season 2 I think of Shane, and Merle always stole your attention and time he's on screen.

Do you think if the Archangel Michael is brought in as a character in this show, Troy Baker would be a good pic to voice him?-UNR
He's voiced a few well known character. Joel Miller from The Last of Us. Joker in Arkham Origins and other Batman media. Grime from Amphibia. Loki in various Avengers cartoons and a bunch of other stuff. Recently he's become a recurring VA for Hideo Kojima games. He voiced Revolver Ocelot in MGSV and played the villains Higgs Monaghan in Death Stranding and is set to reprise his role in 2025 sequel. Death Stranding 2 on the Beach. Troy has shown to be able to sing. He even sang BB's theme in the reveal trailer for DS2. I do wonder if Micheal would be Lucifer's twin brother in this universe, so would they get a new actor or just have Jeremy Jordan do a different voice for Michael.
I also wonder if they'd give an instrument or if that would be too much like Adam. And he had a guitar like Higgs does in DS2 if it would make him too much like dickmaster.
When Western Energy came out and we learned due to Norman Reedus' Walking Dead commitments and not DS2 (Which he likely did the mo-cap for awhile before recording or not who knows) and was replaced with series regular Ed Bosco. I suggested it would've been funny if they got Reedus' co-star from Death Stranding to voice him.
I just like Troy Baker and think he'd fit the Helluvaverse. Same with someone like Susan Egan.

Does anyone else ever think about the cancelled Silent Hill game by Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro that was gonna star Norman Reedus? I think about it at least once a day and get so sad lmao.

This is why you don't use Google when looking up a cast for an upcoming movie.-UNR
Games with well-known actors ruin immersion-UNR
I'm looking mostly at you Death Stranding.
When I play a game, I want to project my own fursona onto the character. I want a customer characterization screen or just a plain ole dude throughout the experience. Not a triple-A actor from a movie or television show.
The worst moment in gaming for me personally was in the Silent Hill trailer when it revealed Norman Reedus face. I'm like, wait, that's the guy from Walking Dead. That kills it. I'm glad it never came out.
Then come to find out he's playing the lead in Death Stranding. I just can't. All I see is him.
This goes for any game that features a Triple-A celebrity. Why? Why would you ruin a persons gaming experience just to show you know cool people? It sucks.

To Higgs, Amelie is the Angel of Death required for his plans against BRIDGES. To Sam, Amelie is the big sister who always took him to the Beach / Adoptive Mother. To the UCA, Amelie is the face of American Reconstructionism. To BRIDGES, Amelie is the main objective of the Chiral Network.-UNR

My fan cast of a RDR movie or shows-UNR
The deeper plot in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is that various groups are breaching the Blackwall (AI Hell) and placing AI/Demons into vessels or even human shells, with Maelstrom trying to rebirth "Lilith" into a human shell; This is why Johnny is important, he's a bridge to the most powerful.-UNR

The new players so far in Death Stranding 2: On The Beach-UNR
DRAWBRIDGE
Civilian company founded by Fragile after BRIDGES that's being funded by a generous patron that has lots of access to plenty capital and tech. The DHV Magellan is being provided by this same generous patron, as mentioned by Hideo.
Their goal is to help reconnect places outside of the UCA to expand the Chiral Network.
The Magellan is definitely not based on anything from Metal Gear.
The Crew so far:
- Fragile (Lea Seydoux)
- "Ahab" (George Miller)
Ahab is definitely influencing his character.
- Tar Kitty
- Living Doll (Fatih Akin)
- Yellow Boots (Shioli Kutsuna?)
- Sam (Norman Reedus)
- Lou (Elle Fanning)
Automated Public Assistance Company / APAC
Hinted to be the bot manufacturing operation Higgs is running which is responsible for shipping autonomous weapons around the continent.
APAS
Nothing is really known besides the acronym, which may hint as APAC / APAS being shell companies of a larger company.
Red Cult / LC
LC comes from the initials seen on the Coffin, Higg's guitar strap and Higg's Hood.
The only LC that comes to mind is from the Ruse / NBGO, where the source of the image was found.
The idol the cultists carry that's also seen on the coffin.
They're likely responsible for attacking Fragile and Lou based off the colour of the pistol used, though it may have been BRIDGES / UCA looking for Lou in the bunker as Sam did go off the grid.
They appear to worship Amelie, much like Higgs did in DS.

Coffin's Mission
Coffin, Fragile's mother, was a new addition in the Director's Cut.
She grew sick of BRIDGES BBs experiments on BBs and set out to become an ANTI-BRIDGES terrorist group with the goal of freeing BBs from their pods. She ends up becoming trapped in the facility after BRIDGES self-destructs it, and ends up dying of cancer after raising a BB she saved from a pod that ended up passing away 5 years in.
She entrusted the mission to rescue the BBs onto Higgs, who later meets Amelie and ended up being influenced by her control over BTs and ended up submitting to her power as her Herald of Darkness.
The new Q-PID looks a lot like Coffin's Necklace / the Red Coffin

Sooo who else?-UNR
Sooo who else thinks TWD: Daryl Dixon is pretty lame?? I've seen the first 4 or 5 episodes and the whole time I'm watching it I'm just bored and annoyed. It's nothing like the walking dead universe, it's like they made a cheap French zombie ripoff series and then just dropped Norman Reedus into it and said it's in TWD universe. For 1: they speak wayyyy to much French in it, like I get it's placed in France but it's an American show so wtf?? And 2: it's no where near as exciting and attention grabbing like TWD I can't even remember any of the characters names after 5 episodes, it's just boring!! I'm so disappointed in it, I thought it was gunna be a badass series about Daryl fuckin up walkers in Europe but all he's doing is helping this lady and her special kid that I have no idea yet why he's so important?? Does anyone else feel this way? Or do I need to really pay attention to it and it gets better? 🤔

[The Walking Dead] Comment Daryl a-t-il mis la cicatrice sur son œil?-UNR
Ok donc j'ai remarqué que cela se produit dans le saut de six ans. Norman Reedus l'a-t-il IRL? J'ai essayé de le chercher et je me suis confus .. et s'il l'a obtenu IRL, quelle était l'histoire derrière cela ainsi que l'excuse de Daryl pour l'avoir soudainement.

Why are some people saying Alan Rickman was "gay" or "Bi"/ect-UNR
I've seen some post on many websites and I've seen comments about it on post about people getting his book. (Please note I'm not against the LGBTQ+).
He was married to Rima for around 4 years and with her since he was around 19...So why are people saying he's anything but straight?, I've also seen a comment about Alan saying he was "Attracted" to his Co-star Norman Reedus? Is that true??? or are people pulling this stuff from nowhere.?
This isn't a hate post I'm just confuzzled
