KK 3,304 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 He's alright. His voice just doesn't suit a Bond song very well. This category has some phenomenal performances. Vikander and Winslet being particular favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uni 306 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 See? Now that's how you do it. You would think a gaggle of actors would be able to pull off a prompted speech better than they almost always do. But when you see J.K. Simmons do it, you realize how cringeworthy the rest of that crowd is. He's just a great guy. Dixon Hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,045 Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 That Sam Smith Bond song is just awfully by by any criteria I've only seen this Alicia girl in Ex Machina, but she was pretty good there.

Uni 306 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 There are presenters who try to be funny . . . and then there's Steve Carrell and Tina Fey, showing them how it's done. So simple, but laugh-out-loud hilarious. I had a feeling Mad Max might take some of these categories. How are skirts from the 50s supposed to keep up with a look like that?

ALL the dialogue comes out of the rear speakers, which are right near our heads in the living room. It's so wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
