Comments on: Benicio del Toro doesn’t consider four-hour ‘Che’ epic ‘quixotic’ http://www.celebitchy.com/26770/benicio_del_toro_doesnt_consider_four-hour_che_epic_quixotic/ Stylish celebrity escapism Tue, 14 Feb 2012 10:14:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Miss Ellaneous http://www.celebitchy.com/26770/benicio_del_toro_doesnt_consider_four-hour_che_epic_quixotic/#comment-168316 Miss Ellaneous Fri, 19 Dec 2008 04:22:25 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=26770#comment-168316 This is sounding like an episode from "Entourage," where Vincent made that film about the Columbian Drug Lord, in subtitles...wonder if Benicio's movie's fate will mirror the TV show. No way a subtitled, four-hour movie is going to make it commercially right now, not in this economy. Love Benicio but, seriously.

This movie looks like something he's really proud of creating. I respect actors who feel that way about their work, esp. on topics that are more "intellectual" and that is not made with the intention of smashing blockbuster records all around the world. Rather see Benicio's movie than Valkyrie! Benicio’s an amazing actor. This movie looks like something he’s really proud of creating.

They're disabled now but you can use ascii smilies and they'll get converted to little pictures.

It was the damn smilies! I updated Wordpress to a new version over the weekend and for some reason all the comments with smilies were getting sent to moderation. The smilies have been disabled for now and we'll have to do it old school from now on. 8) I really hope that's the issue at least. We figured out the moderation issue! It was the damn smilies!

I'm less likely to get distracted and wander off or listen/engage in chattering. But I'm going to head for a cinema I know has super-comfy seats. Thanks for explaining Mod, I thought it was just me. It seems to happen in every post more than two lines long. Howeryeh Ava :wink: You enjoyed being all official – admit it!! :P

I adore Benecio and Soderbergh, but it just seems like this movie is overkill.

Agree with Mairead, what's with the subtitle angst? Have been to Cuba and fell totally in love with everything about it so would love to see this (although agree, irl, dvd not cinema) and since Benicio is probably centre stage for most of it, they could extend it by another 4 hrs and it still wouldn't be too long for me! :D Benicio! *swoon drool* Thank you, Kaiser!
