Here's hoping it's better than The Buster Keaton Story.

Casting not terrible.

Script might be.

[–] Levtones (594) 2 years ago

You for real? Casting is horrendous. Buster wasn't Egyptian.

[–] Otter (24464) 2 years ago

Rami Malek is American, he was born in LA.

And did you know that a lot of silent movie stars were European or Mexican, and left Hollywood when sound came in because they had thick foreign accents? True! Hollywood has been loaded with immigrants since the get-go.

Being born in LA to Egyptian parents still makes him Egyptian.

[–] Otter (24464) 2 years ago

No, it makes him an American with Egyptian parents, troll! Fuck off.

[–] Levtones (594) 2 years ago

He still isn't white whichever way you slice it.

The script will apparently be based on the new James Curtis biography which is a well-researched, non-salacious work of scholarship, so I have some hope that this won't be The Buster Keaton Story 2.0. Hoping, praying-- not going to hold my breath though.
