Yeeeeeessssssss!!!!!
Yaaay! I thought he was unfairly snubbed for Brothers and he should’ve gotten much more recognition like 10 years ago when he did Cider House Rules and Wonder Boys. This is a pretty plumb role and it seems like he’s so over Spider-Man.
AND David Fincher?! Wee!
I so agree with you Kelsey! He deserved Oscar noms for ALL 3 of those films!
=)
no wayWell…he’s gotta have something to do since his Spider Man days are over…
I hope they don’t shy away and show Bobby Fischer as the awful human being that he is.

Go frak yourself.
