Be fair Datun Tim Curry is a fucking high bar to set.

One of the problems, of course, is that Izzard is no Tim Curry.

It's one thing identifying as a woman. It's quite another to put yourself in a movie which makes you look like you're doing the exact opposite.

Yup. God, Tim Curry was beautiful.

I've just watched the trailer for this and it looked to me like a (really badly done) French and Saunders spoof.

I watched portrait artist of the year a few years ago

eddie did not look at all happy with any of the portraits…..the artists had painted exactly what they saw, not what eddie sees

Nope.

Crikey. And they generally use all the best bits for the trailers.

They used the name Eddie on the promotional clip. I presume that means he was paid in boy mode.

Seems fair.

The jowls missed the girl mode memo.

I thought Peter Griffin had a side job.

So only trans people should play trans characters but trans folk can play male female and trans.
Seems fair.

That trailer is hilariously awful.

UnalterableSpaceCadet · 13/10/2023 13:33

What fresh hell is this.

Giggorata · 13/10/2023 13:31

Perhaps some women will sticker the cinemas that show this piece of shit.

ArcaneWireless · 13/10/2023 10:19

Aye. That’ll be a pass. 🤣

Quite,parsnips to peel and all that.

anythinginapinch · 14/09/2023 19:42

I won't be going.

Fuck no

LizzieSiddal · 13/10/2023 12:43

Oh that trailer. The film looks so shit! 😂

SirChenjins · 13/10/2023 11:09

I'm going to buy a tester pot and paint the wall just so I can watch it dry instead.

ArcaneWireless · 13/10/2023 10:19

Aye. That’ll be a pass. 🤣

No words, just yuck!

I thought this thread was going to be about a diagnosis of a medical disorder 😂

fabmaccawhackythumbsaloft · 15/09/2023 15:36

So the films original lead was a man
Now being re written as a woman
But with a man playing the women

Emperors new clothes . Load of bollocks . Do they think they're being hip by getting a man to play the man playing a woman being a man ?

As Nan would say
What a fucking liberty .

FrancescaContini · 15/09/2023 14:52

Will also swerve this. Can’t stand the man.

HectorSalamanca · 15/09/2023 14:51

Such an oppressed minority 😂

Heliotroper · 15/09/2023 14:48

There will be three in this film. He meets them in the toilets when he is changing.

Heliotroper · 15/09/2023 14:47

On the balance of things, I would rather have him making crap films than be in parliament
