benicio vs brad

I have always had a suspicion that Benicio Del Toro
and brad pitt sort of resembled each other facially. Especially around the eyes and nose. Of course , mr. pitt has been around a little longer than
Del Toro, but it doesn’t matter. The moment I watched Benicio, I was taken with him. He’s very enjoyable to watch and he’s VERY: INTENSE, FASCINATING, BEGUILING etc.. When it came to
brad pitt, I always held the opinion that he was a competant actor, believeable in his roles . Of course he was very handsome too. But the truth of the
matter is that he NEVER set me aflame; he never made me tremble with his talent showing passion, intensity or even bravado. He never swaggered, or made me want to swoon ( to date myself ).. He was just kind of nice
( good job there, as I pat him on the head , sort of thing).

Sometime next year, Del Toro is going to be headlining a picture (a remake) of the original ” Wolfman”. The one and the same pic that movie legend Lon Channey made famous. I’ve seen the pics on the site of Entertainment Weekly . I’ll be honest with you - it scared the stuffing out of me. If one can gather buzz about a movie just from seeing the stills of some pics , THIS one is going to. Del Toro looks ferocious and just plain scary!! I’m pretty sure that it’s going to be some movie, because Bernicio is VERY instense.

Now pitt made a scary movie way back called “Interview With A Vampire”. I only saw it once, but it was scary too. I mean Tom Cruise and Kirsten Dunst were in it along with pitt. And pitt being younger, who had long blond hair was handsome indeed. But back then just as now, pitt didn’t cause me any huge reaction. He was good-looking, he was believeable as a vampire (especially with his fangs), but I was never moved by his
presence. Nothing is ever out of the normal with pitt. he’s a very linear actor. All on one
wave length. It’s really not what an actor should be. He needs some major shakeup. But I don’t think that it’s coming with pitt. And no-when I say shakeup- I don’t mean jolie! Yikes- now that’s scary!
