@Story: By all accounts, he's a nice person in spite of a genuinely sad life story.

Yeah, I think he's a decent person, really. He can actually act...it's just the script doesn't give him any proper range.

Here's a good example:

Yeah, it's less that he's a bad actor, just that he gets typecast into roles without much of a range. After The Matrix, everybody started seeing him as The Stoic, so he keeps getting cast in those types of roles.

@Marcen Ah I see, but then again I don't remember many of his films where he played a comedic role and the one I can think of are Bill and Ted but those are only two movies unless I'm missing on some films where HE DID play goofy roles. And it's funny cuz the next episode of MLP that I'll watch a bit later IS about time travel!

Speaking of typecasting, it was really weird for me seeing Elijah Wood in Eternal Sunshine since the only movie I had seen with him before was the Lo TR trilogy.

Speaking of Elijah...does anyone else here watch Wilfred?

@Wilfred watch: Nope!

@Cheese not being my fault: Ah'm glad ah didn't start this cheese ball!

In any case, I'm headed for college, where the internet's iffy. Hopefully, it'll be up to par, and ah won't be back at home until about 9:30 P.M. where ah'm at fer a tabletop game.

Take your time!

Try seeing Wood stab Jon Stewart in the eye with a ballpoint pen full of cocaine sometime.

Yeah, I saw that movie...it was decent.

♪ He's especially good at cake deeeecoraaaating... ♫

the last production i saw Elijah Wood in was Tron Uprising.

The last thing I saw him in was playing the Sigma ai in Red vs Blue season 10.

Ug Tron. I feel like those movies would have been way better if they focused more on the real world. But I guess that's kind of the opposite of the point of those movies.

Finished It's about Time. God after the mean spritied episode that was Putting your Hoof Down in my opinion, comes a much better episode this time about Twilight again. The ending was a real cop out move because it essentially it achieved nothing and I really felt that it should've ended when Twilight found out she was worrying for nothing which made Twilight time travelling to the past A.K.A the scene from the beginning of the episode seem redundant and like I said pointless. But it's really a nitpick than anything cuz it really doesn't detract from the entire episode. Pinkie Pie I have to say is on top form with this episode, that been she was really funny in this. After so many episodes of making Pinkie Pie out of character or be annoying for the majority of season 2 they finally got her right in this episode. And oh her scene when she was telling Twilight's future. Absolutely priceless.

Regarding the "rainbowfied" ponies: Looks like '80s nostalgia hit Equestria hard.

Applejack: Gee, Rarity, I don't think this is such a...
Twilight: Shh! Just let Rarity get this out of her system! We can wash these stickers off in a day or two.

I personally don't think the Tron movies are masterpieces. They're flawed but they're fine. I watched both movies in one day and the plots aren't anything special but they can be enjoyable.

@story: If you think that's weird, the first thing I noticed him in after Lord of the Rings was in the Sin City movie, where he plays a psychopathic cannibal serial killer.

Have anyone noticed that all the stickers fit they cutie marks expect dr.Hooves?

That would make a funny gag for an add. In a bit of inverse toy-selling, the rest of the Six are varying levels of exasperated with Rarity as she decorates them. Aside from Rainbow, who loves it.

yeah, to be perfectly honest, though i enjoyed both, the Tron movies are more of a special effects showcase with an Excuse Plot.

Pinkie would probably enjoy it too.

Ahoy!

I honestly like the effects for the 1st one better than the sequel...which was also good. Maybe because I liked how dark it looked. The 2nd one looked way too light for my tastes.

But the first Tron movie didn't even have good special effects! The funny thing is that at the time it was noted for its use of CGI, but it's actually almost entirely live action with a bit of traditional animation thrown in. And then they went and made it Black and White for some reason.

The best that can be said for TRON: Legacy is that it doesn't make you want to gouge your eyes out like the original.
