Yes.

The ads for this make it look like a lot of fun, or horrendous...........or both.

Eddie is so cute.

1) I am convinced I will actually really enjoy this mess of a movie.
2) That costume is... kind of hideous, right? Is that metallic olive? Is this a "Dune" reboot?

Hello, Norbit!

January 31, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterBob B

It's a bit Ming from Flash Gordon.

"I will haaah-vest that planet tomorrow before I let her take it from me." I hope you do, Eddie.I hope you do.

He is not going to age well. He looks great for 30 whatever he is, but his lips and skin will do him no favors,

Fish mouth. I hope Keaton is victorious on Oscar night.

There's something so "evil queen" about Eddie in the trailers that i'm totally living for. I'm so going to watch this. Between this and Fifty Shades of Grey, I'm turning my brain off in February.

That costume looks something out of a gay version of the fashion show from The Women. Those shoulder pads are very Adrian. And it must be lounge wear because he is barefoot.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterHenry

He is SSSSOOOOOO hot!

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterBhuray

Well I'm inspired. Those abs by the end of the year! Thanks, Eddie.

The paycheck must have been really good.

Velvet Goldmine 2? Yes, please.

Whenever I see Eddie Redmayne I think about that line in Mean Girls where Cady says Regina would look like a British man if she cut her hair and apply it to Jessica Chastain/Eddie. Hope that doesn't come off catty/mean because I just think they look alike, it's not a diss!

Anyway, this movie looks messy as all hell and I'm here for it.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered Commenterthefilmjunkie

He is very ugly. And have very ugly foot. I am not foot fetish lol

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterAdam

Tired of him already.

This role, this look are soooo camp...Tim Curry could and would and should play the sh*t out of this part...do you think Tim is available to play this part in the musical of Jupiter Ascending? Actually, can we just get a Tim Curry cinematic revival period? BTW, Eddie is so handsome and adorable in his Katie Couric interview.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterMB76

Prayer-cupping the bulge.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered Commentercatbaskets

Every line he says in the movie he says in whisper or screaming at the top of his lungs. And I don't remember him being shirtless in the movie.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterYonatan

Yikes.

February 1, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterTroy.

Well Eddie did have to fund a honeymoon, after all.

I hope he loses.

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterJon

Very Vegas, all he needs is a white tiger.

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered Commenterbrookesboy

My reaction was OH.MY.GOD. I'm very surprised to read so many negative comments.

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterIvonne

Yes, that was what my ::eyeroll:: meant, Ivonne.

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterPaul Outlaw

Horrible costume, squinty is not Eddie Redmayne's best look, but let's be honest - I'd still hit it in a second, and so would 99% of the people posting here.

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterRoark

Did Harvey have anything to do with this?

February 2, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterPatryk

@3rtful -- I was thinking more Trouty Mouth.

From the THR review of Jupiter Assbound:

".......while Redmayne can hope that balloting for a certain prestigious award is finished before voters get a load of his melodramatics on display here."

Are there other reviews out yet on this? This one just made it sound dull.

(I like Redmayne, so not hoping to see his fall, but everyone does roles that they would like to forget and obviously he signed on to this before Theory gave him is own ascending.)

February 3, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterHenry

I hate him more than Hathaway.

February 3, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterCarell.
