Not Colin Farrell. And the chick they chose to be "Melina" (or whatever they call her), she is too "styled" for my taste. This looks more like a dog and pony version of Total Recall, emphasizing style over substance. The effects look awesome, but this acting pair might ruin it for me. Why do these people think that having certain actors are what makes people go to see a movie? The actors themselves are overrated. Even A-List actors cant improve a bad movie, so I think this movie will be expensive beyond belief, yet will be only "meh" at the box office. Lots of people wont go see it because of Colin Farrell.

Yeah I find him a turn off. To be honest I thought he had peaked years ago so I'm a bit surprised he's still getting lead roles. It's hard to sympathize/empathize with a character when they are being played by a drunken, loutish jerk like him. I just don't buy him as the hero type I'm supposed to root for.

Ah, I've missed your wit and wiles here on this forum. Somehow I don't picture you as a corporate drone working for the Man.

I know I'm putting the door wide open here, but, how do you picture me?

Anyway, will you be doing a Total Recall rewatch tonight?
