which is something I blame Lucas for.

maybe it was also the green screen/s. For classically trained actors like Portman and McGregor, acting in front of a green screen with almost no physical marks proved to be quite a challenge...
Hayden was just a kid...
And the scripts didn't help, either.

"And the scripts didn't help, either." Well, Lucas is responsible for that too, since he wrote them. ;)

... fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony. :|

This just renewed my hype for the movie. :D I'm guessing he's playing the captain?

I still want Joseph Gordon-Levitt for Arthur. :|

it was the only role left to be cast, so yeah, I guess too.

hey, the way this movie developed, until they really start filming, anything 's possible...

And yeah, I can definitely see Lawrence Fishburne as the captain. I also expect at least one Matrix reference in that movie now. All those passengers asleep... surely we could get a brief glimpse of someone named Tom Anderson?

... that would be awesome
think Spaihts reads here? :D
or maybe we can send him a tweet ? :D :D

'Thomas Anderson. Actor, biker, or computer programmer?'

Of course I'll watch it, whenever it's gonna be released.
Then I'll see if it works or not...

Although, there's always gonna be the question 'how would it have been if? '

which means you've got some expectations (you've got an idea how it should look like)

do I ?

1) 2 big box office stars means that they'd be great together - that's always true, isn't it? Not.

2) Keanu hasn't had an enormous hit in the year since John Wick?
ummmmmm... I'm sure there was a point intended. Or maybe not. Because ALL successful actors have a mega-hit every couple of months? Not.

3) "Lawrence possesses an understated sexuality" Lawrence possesses an understated everything, unless you count looking pissed off and sullen. She'd be great with Hayden Christensen. or not. But chemistry with Keanu? Seriously? I don't get it. Once again, not.

4) "fashion n style" as film analysts / critics? Not so much.

JMHO,YMMV

Adam Carolla podcast with Keanu and Gard.
at minute 53:49, Passengers is mentioned.

Keanu: " I couldn't do it, they didn't want me" […] "they made it, just not with me"[...] "I'm not in it, but it's cool, man, the story got told. It's a great story"
