Blanchett, except for this year has had like 2 movies every year since 1999. Marion wasn't even a movie last year so that already there breaks the comparison and Marion has been cast in supporting roles for all of her upcoming films (unlike Blanchett)- and with the exception of Nine, she's playing what the character's nationality requires. In Public Enemies she was half french, she has a French movie coming out this year, and since Inception takes place in several countries, including France and Japan, I'm assuming the character is french.<br /><br />On top of that she's not exactly being cast as an elf, nazi, southern ballerina, British Monarch, legendary Hollywood star, or a man.<br /><br />I may be being a bit defensive over her since I love her so much, but when I see a lousy comparison I'll point it out.Miss Tufsynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-24000438494332762592009-08-21T10:55:51.508-04:002009-08-21T10:55:51.508-04:00WHATS WRONG WITH ELLEN PAGE!!?the people who comme...WHATS WRONG WITH ELLEN PAGE!!?the people who commented first need to chill, shes a very versatile and impressive actress. Shes only been in one "quirky" role unless you also count "smart people" which really isn't that "quirky". Anyway, I love ellen and I think she standout from the cast, she never does high budget movies besides x-men but she wasn't in that long unlike this. I think she's an unusual actress thats great and has a natural talent for this. Now, I think the rest of the cast is great and I can't wait to see this.

And La Marion is in this too, so double yay from me! I hope that expectations aren't too high for Christopher Nolan though. It must be hell (in a good way) having to follow up THE DARK KNIGHT, and some might have their claws out (but then they always do). Hopefully it'll be great. If this is "Memento" level, then I'll be a happy camper.Daveynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-80210625568047356432009-08-21T10:38:37.550-04:002009-08-21T10:38:37.550-04:00Did Cameron seem "spooked"?

Anyway, releasing a follow-up to a blockbuster after 12 years is enough to convince me that Cameron may be getting desperate. Especially after he charged money to see some snippets of footage of Avatar. Man's ego seemingly can't take a hint.<br /><br />Inception sounds good though. And it's got a cast that will definitely hook me in: Leo, Ellen, Ken Watanabe, Cotillard, JGL, Michael Caine. Nolan just churns out good movies, whether they're blockbusters or not.

Ellen Page did annoy the happy hell out of me in JUNO (and did that same schtick in SMART PEOPLE) but i'm trying my best to not hold it against her after seeing her in HARD CANDY. It's quite hard. Seeing her included in this almost awesome cast is not helping things. <br /><br />and with Leo, i've just recently decided that he's one of my favorite actors. Oddly during REVOLUTIONARY ROAD. I'm still quite hurt that he didn't get much praise for that film. He was great. I can't wait to see him in SHUTTER ISLAND.

Just watch An American Crime with the great Catherine Keener, or even Hard Candy. She just HAS to stop playing the "indie, quirky" girl role. Hopefully, her role in Inception will be something new and refreshing. <br /><br />I'd much rather see her in this film instead of someone like Megan Fox or Sienna Miller.
