Next Lambert?



Once there was talk who would be new Schwarzenegger after Arnold. Then, Sly Stallone after Stallone or Bruce Willis after Willis. However, there never was any mention of Lambert after Lambert. Being fair and all, I thought we ought to give it a go. It's only reasonable now that Christopher Lambert is no longer that awful (an actor) what he used to be back in the Highlander days. And that's what we're trying to mimic here.

I only have two unfortunate nominees (so far) to be replaced as the next Lamberts.

1. Thomas Jane
Proof of Lambertism: Punisher



The look and feel. He's way better than this. It's a shame this movie sucked.

2. James Purefoy
Lambertism pick: Solomon Kane

(trailer removed due to dead link)

Ok, let's hope not. This fine specimen can actually act (Rome anyone?) and speak (with a lovely accent too). Let's also hope this movie is a tad better than Highlander 'cos that what it appears. Not to say it wouldn't be fun in a twisted kinda way but let's hope Purefoy doesn't get typecasted away and lands on more ..hmm.. top-notch movies. Or maybe I'm just overreacting and this movie what it is, will be his opening to big screens!

LAST MARKINGS..

Both nominees (left: Jane, right: Purefoy)

Nominees introduced & all said, I actually do hope than none of them ends up being the next Lambert because they have much more in them. So no more Lamberts please, especially since the one has cleaned up his act (see Southland Tales and pick him up there -acting!-).

  1. Lambert sucks. Sorry, but that's a fact.
