It was on last night.

It was bad.

Really bad.

(And I don't mean that in a good way.)

No offense, but Summer Glau is not a good actress.  She gets her roles and attention from her looks.  When they begin to fade, so will her limited prospects.

Nonetheless, she was, far and away, the best, most highly talented star to appear in The Cape.

It would be nice to see if she can act in a role that isn't either robotic or insane.

I'm amazed that anyone on APS has been noticing her acting  :P

I'm as big a Firefly fan as the next APS'er, but sadly I suspect if she could act other then insane, robotic, or roboticly insane we'd already know.  Some actors just need to stick with what they can do.

After all nobody wonders if Jason Statham can do Shakespere.

Well, maybe nobody did before you brought it up.  Now I'm thinking of several characters he might be good at.

Sure, he's not likely to be the next Patrick Stewart, but I'm betting he can do it better than you can spell it :D

It would have to be better than that first Transporter flick. Ugh. I fast-forwarded the last hour of it.

I'll bet dollars to donuts he would be better than Keanu Reeves in "Much Ado About Nothing."

Well, she is very smart, you know...  ;)

Also, she can kill you with her brain.  :P

Then he would also be better than Denzel in Much Ado About Nothing.
