[Silvermoth]

Urgh I hate these people but this film looks so good!

 

[psylockolussus]

So eerie how close she looks!!

i don't sseeCharlize Theron in any of those photos.

 

[OutOfBoose]

How did they do it? Megyn Kelly make-up is impressive.

 

[terry78]

That's not Charlize, it's a clone.

 

[Sawyer]

This is why I hope the movie toys with what we'd expect from a biopic like this. They get to the end, they play up the triumphant uplifting musical score and then... one of them whips around and they're on their main stage, looking directly into the camera and warning the audience about Muslims pouring into their neighborhoods.

Making it clear to the audience that they were the "good guys" during one particular battle, but overall... not so much.

 

[terry78]

To about half the country they will always be the heroines of their own story, and partly due to the latter.

 

[Silvermoth]

Yeah but that’s sawyer’s point, to remind people they really weren’t perfect people or even acceptable people even if bad stuff happened to them which shouldn’t have

 

[terry78]

yeah but there will be those who won't care is what i saying

 

[Silvermoth]

Oh well I’m afraid that happens with all films. I definitely think it would be worse if it portrayed these three as plucky paragons of virtue worth emulating

 

[Prison Mike]

Am I only one who only saw Charlize in the trailer? I saw YouTube comments about how they only saw Megyn but I thought they were being sarcastic.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

 

[terry78]

That is a lot of Becky right there.

Bombshell: Charlize Theron And Margot Robbie Are An Oscar Revelation

Honestly, just based on the trailer, I believe it with Charlize. Just from those looks she was serving in that elevator, you can tell she's killin' it, lol.

 

[James.B]

 

[scarlet-witch]

Charlize looks great but the voice is definitely not Megyn, it's all her.

Like others, I'm torn. It looks super intriguing but Megyn Kelly is awful.

 

[samsnee]

Yeah these women aren’t heroes. They only looked out for their own self interest.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

Wow at Lithgow's transformation. I didn't think they could top Crowe as Roger Allies in the makeup department, but he looks great in the role already. After watching The Loudest Voice I am definitely interested in this, especially with this cast attached. Charlize looks almost unrecognizable.

 

[Dark Raven]

Charlize looks great but the voice is definitely not Megyn, it's all her.

Like others, I'm torn. It looks super intriguing but Megyn Kelly is awful.

Definitely still sounds like Charlize, although she has physically transformed into Megyn completely. Couldn't she do something more with her voice? I think it's too deep for starters. Otherwise it makes it look like someone dubbed Megyn's voice. I think with Charlize's voice but such a close Megyn look, there is more of a disconnect than if she didn't look that much like her.

Also, Kate McKinnon still looks like she's doing an SNL sketch.

 

[Hurm...]

This is why I hope the movie toys with what we'd expect from a biopic like this. They get to the end, they play up the triumphant uplifting musical score and then... one of them whips around and they're on their main stage, looking directly into the camera and warning the audience about Muslims pouring into their neighborhoods.

Making it clear to the audience that they were the "good guys" during one particular battle, but overall... not so much.

That's how I feel about this film as well. Great idea btw.

 

[terry78]

Considering who's directing it probably.

 

[Schlosser85]

Yea, McKay is no fan of Fox News .

 

[flickchick85]

Given Jay Roach’s previous politically-charged films as well, I’ll be very surprised if these women are treated like heroines. They probably created Margot’s character to be the more sympathetic, “relatable” one.

 

[dark_b]

the music in the trailer makes it look like a comedy .

 

[terry78]

It's a satire.

 

[Schlosser85]

the music in the trailer makes it look like a comedy .

It sort of is, in the same way that The Big Short and Vice were.
