It's a pity we can't re-attribute this thread to you Necho, sorry!
Unfortunately during the image server migrate, a few folders were lost, sorry for all the dead images.
We could lock this and start a new one if you'd like!

Ok the strangest place I ever ran across My "significant ex" was once when I went with My wife to her work. My ex-girlfriend had gotten a job there! LOL! Well she didn't last there long (the girlfriend) and since neither could stand the other it wasn't a big deal!

When actors do this I see it as them going all out to make their art perfect. An actors art is to become someone else and have the viewer forget that they are watching a person pretend to be someone they aren't.
I see it like a sculptor slaving over a piece of marble for years.
A guitar player loosing pints off blood from their fingers from years and years of practice.
A skateboarder breaking bones to perfect his tricks.
A novelist shutting themselves off from everybody for years to write a masterpiece.
Johnny Knoxville getting hit in the balls with everything and the kitchen sink.
All these people care more about their artistic expression than their bodies and minds.

Im not a fan, I find it unhealthy. doing a diet or packing on some muscle/bulk like Tom hardy I don't mind. I'd rather just have a naturally skinny actor play someone skinny, or a heavier actor play someone heavy than force it on people at the opposite end of the spectrum. Jonah hill got skinny and he's still not funny. They could have just found a funny guy in average shape.
Ultimately it's unnecessary, just a way to get big names into movies where they don't belong.
"Let's force this actor everyone knows to kill his or her body so we can cram them in and get more ticket sales."
more economics than art

I refuse to buy any food from China.
Example - the garlic I see in the shops here in Australia, originating from China, is bright white. It doesn't perish after 3 months in a cupboard. Garlic shouldn't be that colour nor last that long. .

I'm all for ideas and creativity but I think completely taking it upon yourself to redecorate should be run past the boss a bit before posting it in the forum, maybe its just me, I find it disrespectful. I see the aim and the good, but come on, this is Nicola's brainchild, she's not daft.
