Valkyrie

[dangermousie]

I am kinda psycho excited about Valkyrie, coming out next summer, based on a true story, about German army officers’ plot to assassinate Hitler. (They came very close, but it failed).

Stars Tom Cruise, whom I confess to liking, nut job or not (I am not his family, why would I care if he needs happy pills?). I think he’s hot, is a good actor, and was in a lot of movies I like.

Anyway, the trailer looks AWESOME:

I'm psyched too about it! I mean Kenneth Branagh is my ultimate favourite actor of all time. He already played a nazy high rank soldier in HBO!Conspiracy and he was chilling. I'm looking forward to this movie.

I don't say as much as needed how awesome you can be ^^.

Heh. *blush*

Kenneth Branagh is amazing. I mean, Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing? Especially, Hamlet. I finally actually liked the play because I finally got it. I remember being almost dizzy from the movie.

I've been excited about this one since I first heard about it, both because I'm a WWII buff and I adore Thomas Kretschmann. I don't like Tom Cruise, but since he does look the part, I'm willing to accept him as the price I must pay for the good stuff.

Firstly, that is the best icon in history of ever.

adore Thomas Kretschmann

I like him as well. He is also going to be in 'Wanted,' I think.

They are making another WWII movie, btw, with Daniel Craig.

The one about the Bielski brothers, right? I'm really looking forward to that one, too.

Yup. I read the book it's based on and it was wonderful.
