>>750 A tweet that is both sarcastic and shady at his fans. :) And they proudly reply with embarrassing glee.
It's a shame that many of the girls invested in the Loki/ Prince Charming image are too young to see HR.

"Russell Brand, Benedict Cumberbatch and Gillian Anderson return to Letters Live "
http://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/feb/05/russell-brand-benedict-cumberbatch-gillian-anderson-letters-live-2016
TH isn't listed but neither he was last year and this takes place mid-March so you never know.
>>760 Well, so much for the Letters Live mailing list! Not a word in my inbox about this. I looked on the ticket website and plenty are still available - but at about £80 a pop, or £130 for "premium" seats. Ow. If TH wants to talk about access to the arts that might be a starting point.
>>761 Doubtful that is the reason, this festival happens after the Oscar, the big contenders aren't even listed, in fact SPC is also bringing its other music biopic flop, Miles Ahead. I'm also doubtful if by March 6th TH will be done in Vietnam.
>>762 very expensive if it's just for 1 day.
>>765 that's crazy! Makes you wonder how much they pay the Thespians participating.
Speaking of TH schedule, a little reminder that tomorrow are the Evening Standard British Film Awards, for which he has a nomination as Best Actor (if memory serves).
Going by his PA's instagram, they were still in Oz this week, so if there's filming planned for Monday, I don't think he will fly all the way to London. On the other hand, they might take a week break before starting in Vietnam on the 18th, especially Brie since she has BAFTA next weekend.
>>767 not really, bu to be fair Miles Ahead received way better reviews than ISTL, the score at metacritic is on par with CP, around 66% while ISTL has a meagre 45%.
AMC Brazil TNM tv promo, by torrilla
http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTQ2NjczODM4MA==.html
Brief review of the first episode of TNM by a writer who attended a private screening: http://akbenedict.com/the-night-manager/
tl;dr: It's very good, faithful to leCarré's writing, well acted. There was a Q&A with Hugh, Olivia, director Susanne Bier and others.
>>771 Ooh good spot! I love it when people post these random links that you might otherwise never find. Review is very promising. I can't wait.
I don't remember if this was posted back in Oct. but in case it wasn't there's an interesting bit about Skull
http://www.fangoria.com/new/exclusive-qa-tom-hiddleston-talks-crimson-peak-and-kong-skull-island/
by the way, my memory did not serve, the only nomination for HR at the Evening Standard Awards is as best film.
>>774 No, you didn't dream it. He was on the longlist: http://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/film/evening-standard-british-film-awards-the-full-list-of-nominees-a3142661.html
We haven't heard from Anon., anonsy or qaz for a while. Hope you guys are ok.
>>775 phew I'm not getting old after all.
so he didn't make it to the short list, ouchy
>>777 I feel for him, I really do. He picked three interesting and varied projects for 2014 and none of them quite came off. HR will presumably be eligible for BAFTA, Oscars etc this coming year though, due to the March release date.
It may be that ironically TNM and the BBC will make him a truly household name here and in the States - as tv shows did for so many over the last decade or so, eg John Hamm, Damian Lewis and earlier people like Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Laurie. It really is where so much creativity has been in recent years.
>>778 It's surprising that he didn't, HR is in the shortlist as best film but not a single actor/actress is, strange.
I don't expect HR to make it to the Oscar, after what happened this year the Academy will stay away from a film about classism full of white British dudes.

Get your HD cameras/electron microscopes ready for relationship analysis.
>>780 You're back!
We should submit a question jointly!
>>782 Now we are sure he won't be at the awards tonight.
Has any other movie been promoted so much way before it ended?
>>780 Egads. We'll have to wait until March 21st for that one.
"Just seen a preview of the first 2 eps of #TheNightManager. Brilliantly filmed with great performances. It'll be a big hit for @BBCOne."
https://twitter. com/rogermosey/status/696312201364316160
Booked to see one of the HR previews with q&a in London. Very excited!
BTS photo from HR - appears to be from a weird party scene that's in the trailer but not the book: https://mobile.twitter. com/mr_wheatley/status/696643388330872832
>>786 excellent! Can't wait to read your review. Which date?
>>787 11 March at the British Library. Ben Wheatley will be there as well as the producer and JG Ballard's daughter! Apparently the BL holds the Ballard archive, hence the screening there.
>>789 He still looks so spindly running into the sea! He really is a skinny ribs.
>>790 MTE. I wonder what it's like to have metabolism that's so fast you have trouble keeping weight (muscle too) on over even short periods of time. Then again, maybe he didn't have the resources to weightlift during filming given all the places he had to travel.
>>791 Torrilla has a pic of him with Roper's arm round him, taken from behind, and you can see his little skinny arms poking out of his t shirt. He has a little bicep on the front but no tricep at all. I never believed the story that he gained 20lb of muscle in 6 weeks to screen test for Thor. My personal trainer, who has a body like Chris Evans, doesn't gain that kind of muscle mass in a year, and he gains muscle mass easily.
>>789 The vimeo has since been made private. It was a nice trailer though, while viewing lasted.
>>792 I'm going to say that he did appear to gain something for the Thor audition. It happened during the break between the 1st and 2nd seasons of Wallander, and the change in his body between the two seasons was visibly obvious. You can't tell if it was as much as 20 lbs, but his shoulders and chest were broader, and his butt/thighs larger.
It was not that Coriolanus level of noticeable bulk (or so it appeared - I didn't see the play in person).
>>776 Here I am! :)
>>793 I'd say Coriolanus was the only time we've ever seen him really bulked up. Since he seems to be someone who has a hard time putting weight on, I've wondered what kind of fitness and diet regimen he must have been on for Coriolanus. He had to be eating a ton of protein and lifting for hours every day, or at least lifting really heavy.
(Happy birthday, Tom!)
>>793 Here's a youku video from torrilla of the trailer: http://cheers-mrhiddleston.tumblr.com/post/138934592469/the-full-night-manager-trailer-via-torrilla-on
>>793 >>794 I do actually have a small anecdote about the Thor audition. A friend of mine worked with someone who knew him. The someone was married to Emma H's best friend. The someone attended a BBQ shortly before the audition. TH spent the whole party showing everyone his new muscles and saying "have I got bigger? Have I got bigger?" Apparently the biceps rivalled a sparrow's kneecap in size....bless.
I suppose before Coriolanus he wasn't working on set for ages so he had time to bulk up. Before TNM he lost a lot of weight for ISTL then had to gain it back in Jan-Feb for filming in March. Bit of a tall order especially for someone who is naturally skinny.
Tom has tweeted since it's his birthday. Only the HR trailer which we have seen before so I haven't linked to it.
I tell a lie! It is not at all the same trailer!! We see a lot more balcony scene!!!

>>807 speaking of cats....she has the sinister egg pic as well, and 7 followers, to whom she has chosen to tweet this gem!!!
Sorry for multiple posts. The board is messing with me tonight, telling me I have put in the wrong code and then posting anyway.

In the past, short, brunette, curvy shoppers were allowed, but he now accepts thin, blonde customers as well.

>>822 I guess if he's not been nominated and he is on the other side of the world it's a long trip back. Has filming finished in Oz? Maybe he will come home to the UK if he has a few weeks off, but there are a lot of island paradises on the way from Australia to Vietnam, and I know what I'd do faced with the choice! Bali with EO! (Just kidding - but Bali alone would still be amazing).
>>823 I read Brie was in LA the other day, but she has an Oscar campaign to run so it's a bit different.
I agree that it's a long trip considering he has no nomination and filming in Vietnam starts on the 18th for actors, but he also has 3 products to promote and BAFTA is his turf, so if he was asked to present an award he might use the little break for that.
Or to get a change of v-necked tshirt!
>>824 Maybe! Will a trip home be the cue for nw3anon to start blogging again and/or for some less regular visitors here to surface saying they have seen EO in Hampstead?!!!
Slightly off topic, but I did laugh when I recently came across this, on the topic of whether one should tweet one's celebrity sightings. The comedian Robert Webb's response to being tagged in the usual moronic "I just saw @[celebrity]" tweet was hilarious.

>>825 lol likely on both counts.
>>827 I wouldn't want to discourage any lurkers from joining in on a regular or occasional basis. I was one once! But I do raise my eyebrows a trifle when I see a post from someone new saying, "I am not really a fan, but on my way through Belsize Park I happened to spot a bloke I vaguely recognised as that Loki chap having sex with a small blonde in a phone box outside G&W. Didn't stop for a closer look because, y'know, I'm not kinky that way, but I did coincidentally find my way to this board to let you all know."
>>828 it's surprising the number of people that find their way to this board only when they have that kind of info to share.
>>825 Does anyone speculate on who she really is? (I don't know but someone claimed she was the best friend of the Blessed Ave J, or someone whose nickname starts with a b, ends with a p.
>>818 TNM - I'm so excited for this. Everything we've seen so far bodes well for a great series. I might even forgive them for substituting Devon for Cornwall!
>>830 It has also been said she was a relative of someone well known in the theatre world. Who knows. The whole thing is so fishy. My current area of north west London is quite village-y and full of slebs but you can go for years without seeing any of them even though they mostly seem quite normal and probably do their own shopping and walk out to get a coffee (eg Emma Thompson). To see one particular person every day you would need to be a genuine stalker, i.e. do what nw3 criticized all the fsngirls for - sit in G&W all day waiting for him to appear.
>>831 And we get to see it first! (unless everyone Stateside is using a proxy server)
>>824 BAFTA attendees so far - press release from today. No TH. It is looking a bit thin TBH. http://www.bafta.org/press/press-releases/attendees-confirmed-for-this-sundays-ee-british-academy-film-awards-0
>>834 They are even enough to cover all the awards! It says "to date" so I expect others to be added, otherwise who is even going to watch it?!
>>835 *not even enough
>>833 Can't wait. We're doing the long drive from Cornwall back to London that day, I've already warned my husband he needs to make sure we are back in time!
>>837 I've been busted by my husband. He is a Ballard fan and so has watched the trailer in advance of our trip to see a preview. I mentioned yesterday that I was keen to watch TNM and after a long pause he said "who is this Tom Hiddleston fellow?" I feel that my casual responses failed to convince!
>>838 Mine is fully aware of the 'other man' in our marriage. He finds it quite funny I think.
How did my response come up as Couch Potato? Sorry! Not very good at this
Just to clarify, 839 was me.
>>840 If you forget to put your name in the box you are named Couch Potato!
My husband located the Observer magazine interview and read it rather grumpily, pointing out that he has a double first in classics from Oxford ("a much better university than Cambridge") and is taller. His permitted celebrity crush is Rosie Huntingdon Whiteley who is so unlike me in every conceivable respect that I find it funny. The problem with my crush is that there are too many similarities!! Men are funny creatures.
>>842 Ahah! I understand now. Ish. My husband is v similar in build and exact height, his father and grandfather are classics grads from Cambridge. My OH is the first rebel in the family to go to another Uni :-)
It's funny how many of us on here are married, or about to be. Qaz is too, and Anon. is engaged. It's not the demographic I expected. A friend of mine went to the Nuffield q&a last year and said she was the only woman in her thirties more or less - all the rest were 20 year old emo/goth/geek girls - or grandmas! With one or two sad-looking spotty geek boys, each following a love object who was completely oblivious and thought the boy was just a cool really supportive friend who liked Marvel.
>>845 I guess I'm the outlier - I'm divorced. My ex husband also has a similar body as Tom, 3 inches shorter but the same build.
