Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted July 18, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2017 It's at the point where I can't watch any films or tv for fear that someone in it has been in something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 18, 2017 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2017 Acting should be like jury duty, and that way you'd never see the same actors more than once. It would everything loads more believable and realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members herbie747 Posted July 18, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) It's not unusual to see theĀ same actors in different things though. That's their arena. Paul Kay looks nothing likeĀ Dennis Pennis in it. The guy with the eye patch doesn't look like the cop from Fortitude anymore, etc. But if Bono turned up, it'd be fucking weird. Regardless of howĀ good his acting was - don't say it wouldn'tĀ throw you for a second. Especially if he started singing.

Members SuperBacon Posted July 18, 2017 Members Share Posted July 18, 2017 With Paul Kaye, it's less him reminding me of Dennis Pennis, more the football hooligan character he played in those clips and vids. Also, was that Jim Broadbent in the first episode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Yes it was. And that's the thing, you didn't see Roy Slater, but that was clearly just Ed Sheran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Actors act, singers sing. Ā That's why Ed Sheeran turning up in Game Of Thrones is jarring, because he is famous but not an actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted July 18, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2017 I have to agree with those saying it was pretty jarring. It was more like a cameo in an episode of Friends where the guest actor is basically just playing themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted July 18, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2017 The problem isn't having singers in GoT, they have been in before. Sigur Ros were singing at Joffrey and Cressida's wedding. Gary Lightbody out of Snow Patrol sings as one of the Bolton soldiers in Walk Of Punishment.Ā Ā The problem with Sheeran is that he isn't very good.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 18, 2017 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2017 Nah. He was fine. No one knows what Sigur Ros look like or who the fuck Gary Lightbody is. Also the camera really lingered on him like some bad product placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
