Channing Tatum. Tatum Channing. I never get his name right because he's got two bizarre last names for a name. Also, I really don't get what the big deal is with this guy. I've only ever seen him in Zmagic Mike and Zi really don't see the appeal.

I think he's a pretty terrible actor. I've been able to tolerate him in a couple of movies (Haywire and Side Effects), but I really don't see how he gets so much work, and even more, why Soderbergh keeps casting him in all of his movies.

And let's remember Monk likes everything. So how terrible must he be? Really, really terrible

I liked him in 21 Jump Street, but I would've liked anyone there; that movie is great.

I enjoy his comedies and was surprised by how much I liked his Die Hard homage (White House Down). He can take a joke and isn't afraid to make fun of himself (This is the End).

But I'd prefer having the John Carter guy return as Gambit.

Yeah, after John Carter & Battleship, they're never letting Taylor Kitsch be the lead in a big franchise pic ever again.

My thoughts exactly.

Not sure why they're making a Gambit movie in the first place.

Gambit was one of those characters that came on like gangbusters with a lot of potential. I remember being wowed by the character and Jim Lee's early art on the character before his pencils became conjoined with Scott Williams' inks. Something happened to the character in the 1990s because he seems to have become just a parody of himself.

He's terrible. Has the kind of good looks that seem to say "dim-witted pretty boy in small town, can't hold down job, all the girls crush on him but drugged out loser by age 30." A very un-interesting manner about him. He would be best suited for playing heels like Biff Tannen or Chet from Weird Science.

I don't understand how he was made People's Sexiest Man Alive. I don't know how anyone could have thought that his story for Magic Mike was even remotely interesting. His success boggles the mind. He is the Rob Liefeld of Hollywood.

He has some pretty fierce competition, but I tend to agree. :lol:

Because the X-Men film rights are a cow that needs to be milked.

And yet, still no Dazzler: The Movie.

I mean, c'mon Hollywood! What's wrong with you?
