I remember an observation Charlton Heston made while filming Planet of the Apes, which was filmed during the peak of the civil rights era, and contained many racial themes in the film. He noticed that no matter what race the actor was, when the ape characters were off camera in their makeup and ape suits, gorillas ate and socialized with other gorillas, the orangutans with orangutans, and chimpanzees with other chimps. Seeing that, he wondered if race is something we could ever get past.
Axel was one of the interesting characters until he got blasted in an instant.
The real quandary would be if method acting is something we can get past. The various ape types were written to not like each other very much, and method people are famous for staying in character at all times. It just takes a few to make it a “rule” since no actor wants to throw another actor off their game, even if they think their game is dumb.
Nitpick/pet-peeve: I despise info graphics that don’t even approximate proportionality. 86 is not about twice 22, and 5000 is not about ten times bigger than 1.
I was watching “Star Trek” last night and I swear I hear Capt. Kirk say “one to the fourth power” which is still one.
Heh. Recall the first Doctor Who wisely pontificating “hmmm...if x equals gamma...”
Alas, that was the most sophisticated math ever expressed on the series spanning decades.
LOL!

Please let me know if you would like on or off The Walking Dead ping list.

I have a friend who had a similar experience. She played a hooker in “Heartbreak Ridge.” Not a huge part but of course she was very happy to get the part. She said Eastwood was incredibly nice. None of her scene made it to the final cut...
The latest zombie movie I got to see was “Warm Bodies”. Watched it with the family.
I recommend it! Light-hearted comedy in the Zombie Apocalypse! It even had Malkovich in a sympathetic role (for him, anyways)...
I concur. “Warm Bodies” was a good flick!
I made an error in my post. The movie wasn’t being made in her home town but in the town she was living. The embarrassing thing is, her home town paper had a story about her being in the movie on their front page. They interviewed her and everything.
Dittoes on Andrea. Lawyer thought she could talk her way out of a walker bite, when she wasn’t doing the villains.
What did that good ol’ boy call her? “College-educated kooz”...
Good riddance, Andrea...
There was one episode where they returned to a town where the black guy was still alive, I forget his name. At the end, Michonne walked out of a store carrying some weapons and a new crossbow with arrows was one of them.........
