I appreciate the writing of "Mass Effect 2". Human supremacists bring you into the fold and hold over you the fact that they brought you back from death, flatter you and tell you you're the special person they need. And also they're the only ones who believe you and are doing something about the mass kidnappings of humans across the Galaxy. But you, the player, and (hopefully) an anti-Nazi human being go: "Yeah dog, these guys are still evil as fuck." But, you know, gritted teeth "working together against a common evil" is a great writing tool, and incredibly fun. So you go along with it. All the while the quite likable, well acted crew on your ship seem like reasonable, ordinary guys (with a couple of exceptions), like those 2 crew members Rolston and Patel just chatting about the former's daughter; you've got Hawthorne and Goldstein complaining about the quality of the food in the canteen; you've got Hadley and Matthews chatting about one of them going to visit "The Consort" on land; you've got your delightful double act of Engineers Donnelly and Daniels who just want to serve with you, and saw this as an opportunity to fight back against evil aliens. It's all very human, very ordinary enough stuff, little snippets here and there to give faces and personality to what was once a faceless selection of evil goons in the last game. That's not even getting into the excellent character of Miranda Lawson and the very much "exists" Jacob. And their silky voiced Martin Sheen leader "The Illusive Man" (an INCREDIBLE performance, like you hire Mr Sheen, you GET Mr Sheen) tells you that it's not racism or supremacy, it's just that every single race is out for itself, it's a dog eat dog world, so why can't they have an organisation after their interests? It's insidious and interesting and sinister in how it's nuanced and gets you involved and invested in their ideals, their goals and their politics. And the hammer blow comes when you're given one of the "good guys" and it's a Salarian (alien) doctor who engineered and modified a genocidal bio weapon against another alien race because his species and the others they work with play god. You start to think that these "Cerberus" guys may have a point... Pity they never made a 3rd game.

New Chapter of Overruled!

Bad movie I have Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 1969

[denimbex1986]

'From Sherlock’s Moriarty to His Dark Materials’ Colonel John Parry; Hamlet to the one-man adaptation of Vanya, Andrew Scott has been a longtime beloved actor of the stage and screen. And now the Dubliner will be taking on another iconic role as he steps into the shoes of Tom Ripley for the upcoming limited series, Ripley. The series, which is based on Patricia Highsmith’s bestselling novels, is set in 1960s New York — and follows Tom Ripley, a grifter who is hired by a wealthy man to go to Italy and try to talk his vagabond son into coming home.

But as Ripley takes the job, he falls headfirst into a life of deceit, fraud and murder.

The cast includes Dakota Fanning, Johnny Flynn, Eliot Sumner, Maurizio Lombardi, Margherita Buy, John Malkovich, Kenneth Lonergan and Ann Cusack.

All eight episodes — which were directed and written by Steven Zaillian — will land on the streaming service on April 4.

The Dubliner told Empire about taking on the role — and the importance of putting “your own stamp” on the character.

He said, “you have to be respectful, but not too reverent, because otherwise there’s no point in doing this.

“You’ve got to put your own stamp on it. Some people will like this version, and some people will like other versions, and that’s okay. What you have to do is understand why this character remains so fascinating for people.”

The Dubliner made his debut on the big screen when he was 17 years old, when he starred in 1995’s Korea opposite Donal Donnelly.

In 1998, he played Edumnd Tyrone in Karel Reisz’s production of Long Day’s Journey Into Night at the Gate Theatre — and was nominated for Best Actor In A Supporting Role at the Irish Times Theatre Award for his role in the show.

Scott had roles in Saving Private Ryan, Nora and the adaptation of Henry James’ The American — and in 2000, he made his stage debut in London with Dublin Carol.

He also appeared in Longitude opposite Michael Gambon, the miniseries Band of Brothers and Dead Bodies.

In 2005, he won his first Olivier Award for his role in the stage show A Girl in a Car with a Man — and made his debut on Broadway the next year, opposite Bill Nighy and Julianne Moore in The Vertical Hour.

Scott starred in the one-man show Sea Wall in 2008 and the next year — and on the screen, he had roles in Little While Lie, Foyle’s War and Lennon Naked, which saw him play Paul McCartney.

And in 2010, he took on the role of Moriarty in the BBC One series Sherlock, which also starred Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman.

Scott was nominated for a number of awards for his portrayal of the super sleuth’s nemesis, winning the Best Actor in a Supporting Role at the 2012 BAFTAS and Best Actor in a Supporting Role – Television at the 2013 IFTAS.

And in 2013, the actor opened up about the “extraordinary” reaction to the series.

He told The Independent, “Sherlock has changed all our careers, and I’m really pleased about that. It gives you the benefit of the doubt because executives like to see recognisable faces.

“It was overwhelming to be on a TV show that is quite so popular. That took me totally by surprise. People had an instant affection for it from the first episode. The reaction was extraordinary.”

He followed that up with a number of roles on the big and small screen over the next few years, including The Scapegoat, The Stag, The Town and Dates.

In 2014, Scott played Gethin Roberts in the film Pride, for which he was nominated for Best Actor in a Supporting Role at the 2015 IFTAS and won the Best Supporting Actor award at the 2014 British Independent Film Awards.

The same year, he starred in Locke and Jimmy’s Hall. In 2015, he had a role in the 007 film Spectre — and the next year, he had roles in Alice Through The Looking Glass, Denial, This Beautiful Fantastic and Handsome Devil.

In 2017, he played Hamlet on the stage — and was nominated for the Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. The stage show was filmed and broadcast the following year.

Scott starred opposite Anthony Hopkins, Emma Thompson and Florence Pugh in 2018’s King Lear — and that summer, it was announced he would be joining the cast of Fleabag.

He captured hearts around the world for his portrayal of The Priest, and was nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries or Television Film in 2020.

During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers earlier this year, he opened up about being cast in the show — and stepping away from some of the more villainous roles.

He said, “when I was in my 20s, I had a little baby face and I felt like I had this kind of darkness inside me. And I was like ,‘why can’t I get a part as a villain?’

“And then that happened — and then there were loads of villains happening, and I was like, ‘why can’t people see the real me?’

“Phoebe and I had done a play together in London that nobody saw, and she came a knocking — and that’s where the Priest came from.”

The same year, he played Lieutenant Leslie in 1917 and had roles in Black Mirror — which he got an IFTA and Emmy nomination for — and Modern Love.

Scott also took on the role of Colonel John Parry in the BBC’S His Dark Materials, an adaptation of Philip Pullman’s trilogy of the same name. The series ran from 2019 until 2022, and Scott was nominated for Best Supporting Actor (Drama) at the 2021 IFTAS.

On the stage, the actor played Garry Essendine in the revival of Noël Coward’s Present Laughter — and won the Olivier Award for Best Actor. The following year, he played Patrick in The Three Kings.

In 2021, he played Lord Merlin in the three-part adaptation of The Pursuit of Love and Terje Rødlarsen in the film Oslo. The next year, Scott played Lord Rollo in the Lena Dunham-directed comedy Catherine Called Birdy.

Last year, he starred in an adaptation of Vanya which saw him play all of the characters in the show.

He also starred opposite Paul Mescal in All of Us Strangers, which saw him nominated for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama at the Golden Globes.'

I know it's you, Kenneth Donnelly.

Confession: Matriarch Benezia. Samara. Flemeth. Fiona. All the wisened ample-breasted objects of my ardent affection. I have a type, do I not?

[diekaduwee]

I personally believe that Dr Chakwas was an Alliance/ Hackett plant in Cerberus. I think this is hinted at in ME2 as the Dr doesn't wear the Cerberus logo, but that could just be the model they used. Much stronger evidence comes from ME3. When you meet Dr Chakwas in the Citadel you discover that unlike many of the Normandy Cerberus crew, such as Kenneth Donnelly, Gabriella Daniels and Joker Dr Chakwas was court marshalled or thrown out of the Alliance but given a post secret research post under Admiral Hackett. The sort of post only a very trusted member of the Alliance would get and not one given to ex-Cerberus, unless of course they were never truly Cerberus after all. It is clear that the crew of the Normandy was hand picked by the Illusive man to make Shepard feel comfortable and build trust. The crew is full of ex-alliance personal and those with close ties to the colonies under risk. Other than Miranda all the crew has "cleans hands" so speak, as that none of them have been involved in the nastier parts of Cerberus. Even in Miranda's case she believes (probably incorrectly) that worse parts of Cerberus don't present what Cerberus truly is.

Hitting up Joker and Dr Chakwas fits into the recruitment strategy perfectly. How did Hackett know about Shepard to set this up in time. Well Liara was aware of Cerberus attempting something like this, and Liara also works closely with Hackett (see her presence on Mars at the start of ME3) so she could easily tipped off Hackett. As for the recruitment efforts well there are numerous way that could have been uncovered, from Alliance intel monitoring ex-Alliance to Chakwas herself contacting Hackett after Cerberus makes contact.

[zet-sway]

YALL what do you think Joker and Cortez are doing after the war? Gabby and Donnelly? Traynor?

Throw anything at me here. I'm in my post-war shit again.

[queercraftingchonk]

Summary: Normandy relief efforts are in full swing for the last surviving settlement of Inta'sei. Tali hears a juicy rumor from Kasumi--but some tension with Shepard, a returning nightmare, and an unexpected 0300 hour discovery keep pulling the quarian away from investigating the scuttlebutt.

Honestly I think my favorite Stupid Problematic Idiot is Kenneth Donnelly he is unacceptably terrible and inappropriate and no one should ever put up with his misogynistic garbage but somehow he’s kinda adorable (Though Gabby could still do better)

[lilcooldude04]

Gardner: Just whipped up a gore may dinner! Osteoporosis!

Donnelly: This 'bon appetit' meme's turned into some sort of bizarre telephone game where each incarnation sounds more and more different than the original. In what way does 'bon appetit' sound like 'osteoporosis'?

Shepard: I don't know but it's cracking me up every time I even think about it.

Daniels: Bon appetit > bone apple teeth > bone ??? ??? > osteoporosis.

Chakwas: Osteoporosis - bone atrophy.

Joker: This has layers, man.

[dyonomnomgod]

[luimnigh]

Okay, Donnelly wouldn't be calling it Scotch, he'd be calling it Whisky.

Though it's correct that a Scot would lambast someone for drinking Bourbon (which is a whiskey made from corn/maize instead of barley, and is aged in charred barrels) over Whisky.

(And I'm calling it Whiskey, with an e, because that's the Irish spelling.)
