I heard it was so that people would buy him as “complex” because on the one hand, yes lots of people died but on the the other hand we got to hit pots and pans in public on Thursdays.
His House of Gucci performance is just incredible. He got paid big money to do what they could have got some old Butlins comedian to do for next to nothing... A ridiculous lazy Italian stereotype going "Mamma Mia. Me lika the pizza ad the meatballs.". It made Andrew Sach's Spanish waiter look like an accurate portrayal by comparison.
Same could be said for Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford or two dozen golden age Hollywood stars. Why would you pay Tom Cruise $20m dollars _not_ to be Tom Cruise. There's good actors and there's good film stars. Sometimes, rarely, both. That said; good art endures. Will anybody be watching Morbius in twenty years time? No. Will anybody be watching Chernobyl in twenty years time? At least one person, touch wood.
@@synchc While I mostly agree with you, I do have one little counter-point to throw in: When you pay Tom Cruise to not be Tom Cruise, you get Les Grossman from Tropic Thunder, and that is flat out the most entertaining thing he has ever done, in my book, so sometimes it works out. But usually, yes, you pay that sort of actor to do their thing because they are damn good at it. Problem with Leto, I guess, is that he just doesn't seem to have the warm charisma that someone like Cruise or Smith has, and that goes a long way towards likeability.
I wonder if Limmy knows about Mark Kermode reading out the letter from James Corden’s parents after Mark slated his role in a Peter rabbit movie or something
@@SeanS102 Me too... it was a bit hard to hear. Doesn't really change how I feel about James Corden in my own right, but makes me want to needlessly shit talk celebrities in general a lot less.

That’s because he tows the perfect middle ground between over acting and nothing at all. Effortlessly embodying the character of a window cleaner so much so that you don’t even realise he is an actor, so you don’t even realise he is Brian “Limmy” Limond.

I feel like Jared Leto was perfect for his role in the new Blade Runner. Ironically, his robotic acting added a lot to his character. His replicants felt more human than him. That felt like a very deliberate choice, by the writers and casting director.
The comic geeks completely rejected him as Joker, so considering these movies are made by comittee the way they are, I cant fathom why they put him in this film. You'd think there would be experts with their fingers on the pulse when theres $100 million movie, but this was very short sighted.
I’m not a comic geek but his joker was like a gangster and not a manic character it was absurd and also didn’t have much screen time to flesh the character out more
His portrayal of joker hardly had any screen time anyway. The problem with the Joker from that shitty suicide squad movie was that he had tattoos. It makes zero sense for a maniac who truly doesn't understand his own goals or motives to sit in a chair and get professional tattoos on his head that say "damaged" lol. As if he has self awareness of his own condition. Truly ridiculous.
I think the 'charisma vaccum' comment hit the nail on the head, there is nothing there to like and so that's why he usually comes across as shit. I think it's also why his better roles are the ones like in Blade Runner when he's meant to be a bit of a weird, distant freak because that is who he is. Part of me thinks he might be a complete psychopath who doesn't feel a thing which is why he always seems like he's faking all of his very little emotion.
He was defo the lead in Chapter 27, the film about Lennon's murderer. Did his "method" bulk-up and all - he's pretty unrecognisable in it. Good performance.
The dude seems so self absorbed, being an actor doesn't give you the freedom to go ballistic and make everyone on set around you uncomfortable or to delay production bc you insist on wearing crutches at all times. I feel like a good actor knows the separation and doesn't have to make it bleed over into real life to make the performance good.
The marathon man interview between Dustin Hoffman and Lawrence Olivier perfectly sums up the pretentiousness of so called method acting if you've never seen it.
I mean no one could do anything good with that super clichéd dictophone dialogue but Jared decided to do his best nerdwriter impression just to make it that much more obnoxious.
Ok this one just reeks of contrarianism. It's not that Leto is the worst actor in history, it's that he's mediocre at best but utterly convinced that he's on par with Daniel Day Lewis. His overconfidence is extremely off-putting & it seeps into pretty much everything he's done since Requiem. He also runs a cult and loves to pointlessly annoy castmates with idiotic antics on set.
Jared Harris was by far the best part of this film. And they cut a lot of his screentime out, could sense there was a lot missing from his scenes and he definitely would've provided more emotional depth to the shallow film, he's such a good actor. They wasted him in this movie and I don't see what for
There was this one Jared Leto film that I genuinely enjoyed. It was called Mr. Nobody. A very... weird movie, but I was fascinated by it when I was younger.
Jared Leto brings it upon himself by acting high off his own farts, taking himself wayyy too seriously, and is coasting by on a few decent roles from like 20 years ago. I hate when the general public and media overpraise celebrities as these tremendous talents when the only roles they haven't fucked up were bit parts, forever ago, or them just playing themselves.
Limmy's "utterly without charm" line reminded me of the possibility that Jared Leto could be watching Mark Kermode, a (somewhat) stuck up radio presenter, destroy him in a review, in almost exactly the same way Limmy's work was attacked by Lloyd Cole and that whatsherface stuck up radio presenter. Just goes to show Limmy is utterly without sympathy; utterly without charm.

@@terenceflynn5125 I appreciate that, Terry, it means a lot but look mate, if I'm honest, Rach gets some bird around twice a week to do me hair. I wouldn't know the first thing about it.
Leto is disliked because he's bought into his own hype and is now some kind of cult leader who thinks he's Jesus and acts like his method acting transcends art
I began wondering if he was Elizabeth Olsen (The Olsen Sister’s) and Zac Efron’s Dad. Coz he’s older than he looks, maybe not that old. But we’re all salmon swimming up the same old streams. 🐟♾ you’ve got a bit of James Mcavoy and Jim Kerr, not much but a wee smidge from time to time. If you know the Norwegian Rockstar Toschie Roed from Audrey Horne, a bit of him to.
The thing is, big name directors keep putting him in their films. You have to think, after they've watched his performances in other films, and directed him in their own that they would know why people dislike him. They keep casting him, and keeping his role in the film, so can we really even blame him at this point.
I know Exactly what you mean by "can't he just Be the person and not be caught in 'this is important'". I feel like there something empty by Jared Leto, that's not likeable.

It’s a little-known fact that Jared Leto caused the Covid-19 outbreak with his “method acting” in preparation for this film

@@upon-fe2720 I thought he was from Barcelona.
@@upon-fe2720 He isn't I'm afraid. He is incredibly clumsy though.
Butlins 😂 that brings back memories.
His best ever performance was in American Psycho, because the role required him to be this indentikit corporate empty vessel. He was sublime.
Where his only redeeming feature was his business card.
He wasn't acting in that one to be fair
No Dallas buyers club but yh after that American psych
Do you know I’m utterly insane
Was he the guy that got his face smashed in in Fight Club? That was alright.
Jared Leto wasn’t acting in Blade Runner 2049. They just went round his house and filmed him.
Lol I did get a chuckle out of that
I thought he lived behind a boulder in a cave because he always dresses as Jesus
Aye, seems right 😁
And he was terrible in that and completely unbelievable as a business magnate
@@rossl5908 I don’t know, he is quite attractive
You can sense the PTSD that comes with Limmy watching critics on the radio tearing into something
I see he can remember stuff, he does have an intelligence of a certain kind after all
“The state of this fucking foam…” laughing already.
Jared Leto is older than Limmy.
had to google it, holy shit
Doesn't have Limmy's looks though.
Method acting knocks decades off of you.
Blood of virgins. Seriously.

"He canny just be the person" is very accurate. Jared Leto always plays Jared Leto being a person.
Thats how I've always felt about Will Smith.

"Let's see Paul Allen's Batman"
Solid f**king gold right there

Brian has the Beautiful Mind thing but instead of equations he has celebrity facial recognition scanning. It’s a heavy burden.
Limmy and kermode crossover, never thought id see it☺️
I just realised Limmy was the window cleaner in IT Crowd.

That’s because he tows the perfect middle ground between over acting and nothing at all. Effortlessly embodying the character of a window cleaner so much so that you don’t even realise he is an actor, so you don’t even realise he is Brian “Limmy” Limond.
I jus got that video recommended to me too!
Wasn’t the recipient of two Scottish BAFTA awards for nothin.
saw that recently and only just realised too!
He looks far more like 90s Courtney Cox than Jennifer Connelly.
Jesus I just watched Scream and you’re so right
so much so it’s actually insane
This comment fucking bangs
No way
i swear half of limmy's streams are him wondering how words are pronounced or realising he's been pronouncing words wrong his whole life
He's slowly realising he speaks Scottish rather than English.

It's boring af tho, easily the worst part of that film
I liked it. I found his character to be really unsettling and uncomfortable to look at.
That was the point. To be unsettling
It’s style over substance fir me. Just like Thatcher
He was easily one of the worst parts of the movie.
Why is Thom Yorke trying to convince me that Jared Leto is the double of Jennifer Connelly?
Never noticed the Jennifer Connelly resemblance but he's totally right
Doppelgänger

"Doon tu du mooth." Literally a poet, Limmy we love you.
Theres a reason they cast him for Bladerunner in that role as an unptight egocentric god complex man.
If there was a lead in Requiem For A Dream it was probably Leto. Although the lady who played his mother got a fairly big chunk of screen time.
You mean the MOM from the Exorcist, perhaps the best actress ever, Ellen Burstyn? She ain't just some lady
