Karl Urban movies

[ladyjanelly]

 I'm watching Chronicles of Riddic now.  I think I saw it in theatres or something.  It looks real familiar, 15 minutes or so in.  Sami thinks the box is amazing and wants to eat it.  Karl's nose is very distinctive.  

Pathfinder was better than expected.  Karl in a loincloth.  Nice action, not a horrible  Hubby liked it too.

Bourne Supremacy was great, but not enough Karl.

Doom was pretty bad.  I really liked Karl's character though, and the moral slide another character had.  The best parts of the movie were like 70 minutes in though.

Commanche Moon: (bought but not yet watched)

Lotr: TtT and RotK: Also great, also not enough Karl.

The Irrefutable Truth About Demons: Haven't seen it, Can't find it.  Is this Karl's "Devour" type movie?  

Star Trek: Started this damn Urban obsession in the first place.  A fun movie with the stupidest plan for a bad guy ever.  It hurts my brain to figure that was the best that Nero could come up with.  The man is not a military genius.

I like 'The Truth About Demons' in ways I can't bring myself to like 'Devour'. It's quirky and the Karl whump is phenomenal! I've even started a crossover fic with Supernatural.

You need the Director's cut of Riddick to fully appreciate it.

In Pathfinder I thought he looked beautiful. Doom is the same, Karl seems to make an awful lot of movies where his acting talent far exceeds the quality of the material. He says more with his eyes in Doom than the second rate script could ever convey.

He's wonderfully intense, don't you think?

I saw you had a crossover but I thought I'd find the movie first.

I've got the DC of Riddick, watching it here and there with headphones while I hang out with the baby. Maybe not the best way to appreciate a film.

He really does bring a whole new level of intensity to otherwise mediocre movies. I also like the variety of movies he's chosen to be in.
