A few tweets coming through about HR being at BFI-LFF, but no confirmation until next week. We shall see.
Wow we have buzzed through an entire thread in a month. Anon., remember when you wondered if he would still be with EO by the end of the thread? Well he is. Or isn't. Bwahahaha!
And ... .3 - 2 - 1 ... here come the posts where he is 100% definately not with her that (insert expletive of your choice) hussy from America etc etc etc.
But seriously - only he and his beloved (or not) know.
Facing the facts, his longest and most enduring relationship thus far is with one W. Shakespeare esq.
:)
To pick up on the previous actor discussion:
I would say neither BW or ER are good comparisons with TH:
BW is an actor's actor - straight up; boy's got chops! But he prefers small parts - all of his upcoming parts are small/supporting roles - and stage work. That's how he keeps his private life, private - he doesn't play the movie star/fame game.
ER is actually behind TH in terms of 'movie star fame.' Yes, I know he has an Oscar, and his people wrangled an OBE for him because of that Oscar, but he was staring in TV mini-series and supporting parts in movies like Les Miserables and The Other Boleyn Girl when TH was doing Thor(s), Avengers, The Hollow Crown. ER's first major staring screen role just happened to be a big hit - and rightly so - with critics. So, it was like he catapulted over the fame game into the 'I'm a serious actor' job. Movies like Thor and Avengers require an actor to play the fame game - as TH did in S. Korea. Movies like TToE don't. I mean, TH is strutting around in horns with a scepter - he's going to get 'Were you feeling horny?' and 'Tell me about your big scepter.' questions. ER was in a wheelchair for most of his movie, he's not going to be asked to sing and dance or do impressions of Chris Evans.
Neither BW or ER want to or had/need to play the fame game. TH needed to for his movies. And maybe he wanted/wants to in pursuit of attention and approval - two things he likes very much.
What TH needs is a part like ER's in TToE - a part where he doesn't need to do the silly things he did on the Avengers or Thor 2 press tours. I think we thought that was going to be ISTL, but Pap Night '15 may have scuppered that - I don't know. I'm still hoping it - and HR - can earn him some acting cred.
(I hate it when my posts end up looking like book chapters.)
>>4 Well, technically, I never said they were 'together' - I've got just as much idea as the rest of us outsiders about that hazy, hot mess of a relationship!
But since she's not in London anymore, and he has to take his books on lunch dates, I guess she didn't outlast the thread!
But I know what did and always will outlast every thread from here to the END OF TIME...Pap Night '15. Never forget, never forget.
I've had taxi rides that were a hot mess. That was just a mess.
I know from an inside source that he is definitely still with EO!!
Their relationship is getting serious - via Skype and text. He's ready to settle down and have kids and so am I, I mean, so is she.
PS - I've heard really good things about ISTL and EO's performance in it.
>>9 impossible. Audrey was a dreadful singer so is EO. plus this Audrey was a rather nasty bitchy personality so I'm kinda glad they picked a bitch to play bitch lol.
>>8 I sooo wish those two would have gotten into the taxi like this.

'Yeah, we're going home to BONE - and bone hard - whatcha gonna do?! Laters, haters!'
If EO had done this, I don't think we'd have that pic of TH getting into his own car alone. Girl, you played the wrong cards. Next time, you'll know better.
>>11 I try. But I've shot myself in the foot, because now my name automatically sets to 'EO, I mean Anon.'
For Lex. Sometimes links to Torrilla's Weibo don't open for me either so here is the article on tumblr: http://lokiperfection.tumblr.com/post/127718723284/maryxglz-empire-magazine-source-torrilla

HR as a BFI Gala Screening.
Wonder why Cannes turned it down? Were they still tinkering with it back then?
>>16 yes, HR was still in post-production and couldn't make it for cannes

the poster says he is in Toronto. I'm not sure he is...
https://twitter. com/LibraGirl024/status/635838215388139521
I can't understand, is it official or based on a stupid joke from G guy back months ago?
>>20 Yeah, she's probably mistaken. I think it's a little early for him to be there, and there haven't actually been any sightings.
>>21 For some reason those Sandman rumors resurfaced again, but Neil Gaiman has denied them on Twitter just this week. So no Sandman for Tom.
>>23 oh great! I've heard that he wasn't going to be in that movie, so that's why I was so confused. but duh. the article that uses bustle as a reference... the only thing I liked is about Tom and Purseface lol. the only truth (half true) in that.
Here are a few of Neil Gaiman's tweets about it, for reference.
https://twitter. com/neilhimself/status/634078579287027712
https://twitter. com/neilhimself/status/634049202834812928
https://twitter. com/neilhimself/status/633826325187428353
>>20 >>22 Oh, we will know. There will be four sightings at Heathrow, a few on the plane, and then plenty from Toronto.
I hope that when he arrives he recreates the pap shots from CP filming - the ones where he was looking fierce in an absolutely unnecessary jacket.
Work it, TH...while, of course, being all about THE WORK.
>>26 you mean forgetting wearing his underwear? that's definitely not a fold of the cloth lol. oh, Thomas...
http://www.franchiseherald.com/articles/36705/20150826/tom-hiddleston-elizabeth-olsen-romance.htm
ah so there is a new "source" that told them she got there after the Paris fashion week to meet him. I wonder why the Purseface wasn't seen with him immediately and wasn't taken to Wimbledon. not good and smart enough.
people can't get tired of this bullshit...
>>28 not I think a new source but a rehash of the US Weekly story.
The closer we get to ISTL's first red carpet, the more "articles" of this kind we are going to get. Hardly surprising.
The comments are a must-read.
>>26 My absolute fave from Toronto is this one of him checking himself out in a window! https://www.pinterest.com/pin/171207223309311967/
>>30 sadly some of them are right. I myself know at least ten fans excluding myself who won't see the movie with the Purseface in it, and there are more. I believe Tom was caught in Purseface PR game and there will be no even friendship between them, but it affects him badly. and it's sad.
>>31 He's probably thinking, 'Geez, I know this was a freebie from Jessica's bf, but it's shite.'
He looks a little ridiculous with the huge jacket and his toothpick-thin leg. Fitted, skinny-boy, fitted.
Anon is correct - Franchise Herald is one of those click-bait,online-only sites that rehash articles from other sources. Others are Venture Post, Christian Daily? - there are a lot of them.
Unfortunately, some people think that these articles = TH or EO PR at work. Not the case. We can debate about US Weekly/Just Jared and even the DM being official mouthpieces, but these sites/articles aren't worth the time.
There are some people who think that these articles are leading up to an engagement/pregnancy announcement. Well, anything is possible, I guess. But either of these are highly unlikely. I know that Cumberbatch last year was a game changer for fandoms, but BC '14 is not the norm.
If there is a sloooowly blossoming relationship (shoulder shrug), we might get an idea of it at TIFF - maybe they'll be seen together outside of official events, maybe they'll walk the carpet together, maybe one will make a comment about actually being in a relationship with the other (shock, gasp!) Maybe, they'll show us if they show up at the Calgary FF - they will wear matching western wear as a sign to fans, obviously.
I think those pap photos from Toronto were taken when he was visiting a spa...maybe he'll show up there with EO!!
The couple that spas together, stays together - if they're together at all.
>>35 Pregnancy rumours? God. I haven't seen these. Presumably put about on the basis that it isn't implausible in the sense that they are heterosexual and of childbearing age so maybe it will come true and then they can say they predicted it all along. The BBC says it will rain in London with much the same game plan in view.
Like Mrs Marcellus Wallace he loves a good foot massage.
>>37 I think people are thinking that TH will 'pull a Cumberbatch,' which means relationship (BAM), engagement (BAM), pregnancy (BAM-BAM). Did you blink - because you missed it if you did. Thanks to BC, relationship, engagement and pregnancy just go hand-in-hand.
>>38 Do you think they charge him extra for those boats he's got for feet?
He has a thing for spa, but I think the visit in Toronto was on order from GdT, I remember Jim Beaver wrote about having to go too.
It was a translation error. Someone said that you go to a spa to get your beaver sorted out and GdT misunderstood.
>>36 so I guess the fact that the spa got shut down by the police was a sign that it was never going to work.
>>40 And how do I get the type of boss that orders me to go to a spa? Seriously, boy has got it MADE: Jim Beaver, hot and cold running beaver, free jackets - even if they are ridiculous, enforced trips to a spas.
>>36 are you joking ( I hope) . my sense of humor dies when something like that is said.
the only one true gf he had was Susannah. all the rest - forgive my French- were expensive prostitutes. the Purseface is one of them.
coach potato, now you can lecture me for harsh words.
This work spa thang is very overrated. I once went on a business trip to Morocco and got offered a free hammam with a (fortunately female) colleague. We were sitting there in our bikinis when two burly Moroccan ladies marched in. Suddenly we were laying naked side by side on a slab having what looked like builders' gravel rubbed into our titties by people who didn't care about inflicting pain. My suffering was not reduced by the fact that I have now seen a work colleague in the nude. Though I guess TH gets that without having to visit the spa.
>>46 you can't be serious about Tom.sleeping with his colleagues. or you read too much of Toby.
>>47 I think Anon just meant seeing work colleagues naked - he's done sex scenes, there was that story he told Josh Horowitz about seeing Hemsworth naked, and apparently Luke Evans' character in HR runs around naked for a bit.
>>47 Get a grip. Who mentioned sleeping with anybody's colleagues? I said I had seen a work colleague naked at a spa. I then said he had seen his work colleagues naked without having to go to a spa. Which in some cases he undoubtedly has done.
>>46 What is it with that? I had the same happen to me in Germany. Hey, Brunhilda, the towel is there for a reason - because you haven't bought me dinner and you don't know my middle name, which means you do not get to look at my lady bits.
>>47 Anon didn't mention Tom sleeping with colleagues. I think Anon made a joke - she's cheeky like that; it's why we love her. We don't know about Tom sleeping with colleagues. He may have. Lots of people have. And we've already talked about how movie sets are places where people become very close - as part of their job descriptions - and share intimate moments and emotions. Their time on the ISTL set is part of the reason why there MAY have been/is something between TH and EO.
>>45 I'm not joking. The couple that spas together does stay together...just ask my wife, Brunhilda.

I think that's why he was seen in a gym. Skull Island is happening thanks God
You know Lex, I think that not only this is not the place for you, any community isn't the place for you.
You can't go one post without insulting someone.
So, please, go away. Open a tumblr blog or something and rant there.
To everyone else, ignore her.
>>53 you know what? it's rather interesting that everyone is slowed to have their opinion except me. everyone is allowed to say what they want except me. I winder why. is it because I have a different opinion then you and call Elizabeth Olsen her real name and say the truth about the status of their relationship? is it because some people here troll me and then I'm the one who is guilty? nice, very nice.
we will see who will laugh in the end. very soon I will remind you about this every thing.
>>54 Elizabeth Olsen real name is Elizabeth Olsen.
And the point is not that you can't express your opinion, the point is that every time you do so you use insults. You seem incapable to go more than 4 words without resentment or vomit.
The truth on the status of their relationship is only known to 2 people: TH and EO. Everything else is an opinion, and opinions are by definition subjective.
Laugh in the end? Grow up, little girl.
There are 8/9 people writing here, I'm pretty sure that most of them think it most likely that there's no relationship, but just because they don't write so at every post now there's a conspiracy against you? This is being delusional and paranoid.
be sure that's my last post here.
little girl? lol. think what you want, coach potato. I told you we will see who will laugh in the end, remeber y words very well, because soon you will have it we're you who were wrong. remeber my name. you will hear it. I promise you that. and trust me, you will recognize me.
adios.
Coach potato?
Did lex insult anyone? I mean, she insulted EO, because that's what she does, and she jumped to the wrong conclusion - and too quickly - about what Anon wrote, but we've all done that (damn you, internet, for not having a laugh track or being able to convey sarcasm).
And, lex, I genuinely don't think anyone was trolling you. Most of what we write here, as I see it, is very much tongue in cheek. I don't really think that they will show up in Calgary wearing matching tassels and cowboy hats as a way to confirm their relationship - it's a joke.
And....back to TH and The Work.
>>52 I guess she was prepping for SI, Couch. I wonder when TH is meant to join? Is the prep work meant to start in late October or is the actual filming meant to start then, so that he would be required earlier? I guess in theory, he might be required right after TIFF and not be available for some/a lot of the other film festivals. Boooo.
Now I'm in two minds about the 'visuals' of this movie. We might get a built-up Coriolanus bod from TH, or we might get a 'I sweated have my body weight away in a jungle' look. Fingers firmly crossed for the former.
Hopefully, Brie will be good about documenting SI filming on her social media, because we all know someone else won't!!
>>59 if you want her around start a new thread and invite her there. In my thread you don't call people prostitute because they had dinner with the actor you are obssessed about.
>>61 the call in Atlanta was for Oct. 18th but I have no idea if TH and the rest of the cast will also start filming that day. But since they are prepping now I imagine filming can't be too far away.
I think after TIFF he will surely be at BFI, other festival are definetely a maybe.
>>62 I'm with Coach on this one. Poking a bit of fun at someone because they behaved in a silly way around some paps - ok. Calling some poor woman a prostitute because she was seen with TH - not ok. She's quick to accuse me of reading too much bycycle but that is exactly the sort of vitriolic nuttery that the loonies over there post (for example about Sophie Hunter because she got pregnant before she and Cumberbatch were engaged). Take it elsewhere.
I have a question, since Tom seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. How do things generally work at TIFF? Do they do interviews and photoshoots during the festival, or is that something the actors would go to Toronto early to do? I'm mostly just wondering when we can expect to start hearing about Tom sightings in Toronto.
No idea how things work at TIFF BUT to break up the radio silence, I will just say that the weather in London is currently woeful - I imagine that it is absolutely lovely in Bora Bora ;)
He surely has to turn up at Hamlet at some point .. unless he's going to one of the film screenings. It would be terribly rude othewise..
From the bicycle site:
http://www.classicalite.com/articles/27417/20150831/elizabeth-olsen-dating-tom-hiddleston-loki-scarlet-witch-attend-cap.htm
Sounds like a rumour tacked onto layers of old rumours... a rumour mille feuille...
>>68 Hahaha yeah, I looked up all the legitimate articles and sources and photos from that night, and neither of them was at the party. Someone at classicalite just wanted to get some clicks.
>>66 from what I remember of 2013, it's all during the festivals, because you may need all the cast present for photos and most of all some productions may not have the money to pay a long stay at a fancy hotel. I think TH will likely be in Toronto on the 9th at the earliest or the 10th at the latest.
>>69 especially since at wrap-up parties there are always paps at the exit.
https://au.news.yahoo.com/entertainment/a/29364085/international-blockbusters-bearing-down-on-australian-shores/
"Sources suggest the Marvel superhero blockbuster would shoot in Queensland early next year, with production beginning in earnest in March.
Both Captain Marvel – the first female led comic book actioner from the studio – and Thor: Ragnarok are the titles being considered to film in Australia."
"The news comes after another blockbuster – Kong: Skull Island – prepares to film at Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast for a six-week stretch.
Although majority of the shoot will be offshore, the Universal and Legendary Pictures production – which stars Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L Jackson and Brie Larsson – will film locally from mid-September."
Mid-September?!?!
That explains the early preparation.

"September 13th
Today is the best day to see Tom Hiddleston in High-Rise (9:30 PM, VISA Screening Room), because the screening will feature an extended Q&A after the movie."
We already knew but now it's official, High Rise at BFI London Film festival.
Nothing for ISTL.
>>74 A couple new High Rise images in that link! Finally, something new! Maybe we will get a trailer soon.
>>75 yes! I find the one with Irons and kids already creepy.
speaking of trailers, I'm reposting the links TIFF pages for both HR and ISTL.

>>71 Busy, busy couple of months coming up .... seriously: hope he is having a lovely holiday somewhere.
>>79 Quite. if he is preparing I doubt he is somewhere on holiday, but if they start filming in Sept. it means he might be done in Dec. Plenty of time to go on holiday later.
However, now I know don't understand why J.K. Simmons and Keaton dropped out. At Bafta TH said they were going to start filming in late summer/autumn, so it seems like they are respecting the schedule after all.
"Tom Hiddleston, Ben Wheatley and Jeremy Thomas confirmed so far to attend the UK premiere of #HighRise @BFI #LFF @empiremagazine Gala."

If Luke was present, there's going to be an interview as well.
Not sure about the shoes with that suit though!
>>103 We need a photo of the ensemble with a good light because the suit is a plum colour and in theory it should match well with those shoes.
I don't mind the colour so much as the thicker soles. He does have quite big feet. I tend to think he looks better with a more formal thin soled shoe.
a bicycle too.

Just Jared write up with the blue suit paparazzi pics:

He is busting out of that grey suit - it's tight over the arms and legs. Either the wardrobe lady got her measurements wrong or he has really been working out for SI.
little vid for CP
https://twitter. com/crimsonpeak/status/639554690271866880
It's snug everywhere.....
>>112 forgot to add, you are right though it's surely the work-out for SI. The suits for photoshoot are lent to the magazine, and they'd never risk to tear a very expensive suuit by giving the wrong measurements.
>>111 this article by JustJared is interesting.
It's a piece about fashion instead of gossip, they mention Luke's name and the fact that he is the PR agent, they name CP as upcoming film instead of ISTL. And no EO.
Nice apology from JustJared
>>116 especially when one is running...
There are 4 suits aren't there? 4 suits 4 pairs of shoes.
Striped Purple, striped grey, striped brown, and blue suit.

Try this link for the HR screen caps. They came from a trailer which seems to have been released by mistake - producers have then got a bit sniffy over fans sharing, so the link may disappear soon.

The purple suit is definitely the best fit :)
When I checked the list of acotr TIFF provided I could only find TH, Irons and Wheatley but there's more for HR.
"#HighRise cast confirmed to attend @TIFF_NET: Tom Hiddleston, Jeremy Irons, Luke Evans, Elisabeth Moss, dir Ben Wheatley, prod Jeremy Thomas"
https://twitter. com/HighRise_movie/status/639338578049400832
"There’s no trailer for Ben Wheatley‘s High-Rise, seemingly in part because there’s isn’t a firm release plan announced in the UK, and no US distributor."
http://www.slashfilm.com/two-new-high-rise-images/
I am amazed by this. I'd pay good money to see TH sunbathing naked and barbecuing a dog!
>>134 me too, I don't see the connection between not having a US distributor and not releasing a trailer in Europe. I wonder if they think that the trailer might put people off it.
Bit of a cheek the producers castigating fans for blogging unauthorised pics on Tumblr. They said they knew "true fans" would want to wait to see it in the cinema - not much chance of that in the UK if there are no release plans.
https://instagram.com/p/7JtcTFLqIF/
Quite a sweet positive review of ISTL from a fan.
>>137 That's nice to hear, although a TH's fan is hardly ever going to point out flaws. But How did she get to see it, are they still doing test-screens?
>>133 Hopefully HR will get great reviews at TIFF and some U.S. distributor will jump on it, and then we can have a trailer and a release date.
One of the TIFF screenings of High Rise has been canceled, no reason given.

I guess we could say he really likes CP, of his upcoming films it's the only one he ever tweets about.

>>143 The commenters' twitter names are epic: "Tom's 12 Chest Hairs"... "TomsTieCollection"... lol
>>144 I think there's also an account named after his flatiron and his black sweater lol
So TIFF says that HR Q&A is on the 13th after the film
http://tiff.net/festivals/festival15/platform/high-rise
but HR's twitter says it's on the 14th
https://twitter. com/HighRise_movie/status/641219691273392132
And someone at CB says TIFF announced no RedCarpet for HR but I can't find the news.
HR's twitter says red carpet on the 13th.

"**Highrise Premiere Celebration
Byblos Building in the Theatre District, Sept. 13**
Host: Michael Achenbaum, CEO of the Gansevoort Hotel Group
It Brits and a California Girl: Tom Hiddleston, Sienna Miller, Elizabeth Moss, Jeremy Irons, James Purefoy
Vibe: Achenbaum takes entertaining Hollywood elite in New York to the next level (his A-List-littered Provocateur nightclub anchors Gansevoort Meatpacking) so expect unfettered greatness at this party — akin to Toronto’s Goodnight back in the day. Byblos serves the best mezze platters in the city; when Sienna and Tom dive in, my Instagram caption will read Cotswolds-goes-to-Cyprus. Will Hiddleston’s girlfriend, Elizabeth Olsen, drop in to support? As the young and the strapless descend on Byblos, “who is Hiddleston dating” is sure to be a hot Google search in the 416, as #Cumberbabe hit a trending high at last year’s opening weekend."

Toronto pumps up the volume in 2015. Stories of Keith Richards, “Miss Sharon Jones!,” Yo-Yo Ma and Silk Road Ensemble, Janis Joplin, Arcade Fire and “Arab Idol” winner Mohammad Assaf unfold. “Born to Be Blue” reimagines the life of jazz trumpeter Chet Baker (Ethan Hawke), “I Saw the Light” of Hank Williams (Tom Hiddleston). “London Road” brings the National Theatre musical to the screen.

I'm sure he will be at the HR celebration thing, not so sure about the other one. But now you know where he might show up.
So first yahoo says Thor 3 will be filmed in Australia, now this twitter account says it's Georgia. Considering the film doesn't even have a director yet and they don't start until June, they might end up filming in London again.

There are other articles about EO which I won't post, but if you read the DM's it's funny how they name ISTL as her film.
It's all about the WORK not .. though something tells me he doesn't support Jeremy Corbyn (rumoured lefty leader of lefty Labour party)

https://twitter. com/josierourke/status/641723676577107968
>>158 indeed. Can't believe it can have been correct if he was in London yesterday. Just goes to show how people assume he is around and then assume they have seen him.
>>159 I wonder what this was about. Hopefully a DVD/Blu-ray with commentary and behind the scenes footage. :)
>>160 The tweet date says the 10th at 4:56, so it might be he left London right away and arrived in Toronto in the early morning. The girl is a University student maybe she was out and about.
>>161 the NTLive rerun of Coriolanus I think, maybe they added some interviews? But I hope with you is for s DVD/Blueray :)
Flights from London to Toronto are 7.5 hours, minus 5 hour time difference so 2.5 hours. If Tom caught a flight in the afternoon he'd get there in the evening Toronto time. Toronto girl tweeted at night so I guess she could have seen him in the evening. However, the tweets from Josie Rourke and ntlive give the impression that they were working in London all day, which would make me think he was still in London, although he could have left earlier in the day while others kept working. Maybe someone will spot him in London or Toronto tomorrow and then we'll know for sure. He may have gone a couple days early to try and get over the jet lag before all the interviews and premiers and photoshoots.
You have to add travel time and check in to those times. At least 1.5 hours in the daytime by car to Heathrow from his place (I am assuming he would not go on the Heathrow Tube with all his stuff), plus 2h check in for international flights. So for an afternoon flight he would have to leave in the morning. Probably didn't hike his stuff to meet Josie so also add time travelling back from wherever they met. I don't think it works tbh.
Meh, they could have done his Coriolanus interview first thing in the morning - it probably wouldn't have taken more than an hour - he could have then hopped on a flight to Toronto in the early afternooon and arrived in the evening local time. Coriolanus interviews with the other cast members and Josie could have continued in London all day - if Tom, Josie, Hadleigh Frasier, Deborah Findlay and Mark Gatiss took an hour each to interview that pretty much takes up the entire day.
>>165 Ah you're right, I forgot about travel and check-in and all that hassle.
Let's make it 11 hours, flight+check-in+reaching the airport, and let's say the girl tweeted as soon as she saw him.
4:56 am on the 10th in Toronto less 11 hours means he left Heathrow at 5:56pm on the 9th, so he could have spent the day working at Coriolanus and still have left yesterday.
All things are possible. He could have been there for an interview. He could have done it first and left early. None of us know. My personal view is that the more likely explanation is that the fan was mistaken.
>165 You're planning that out like he's a normal person, not a famous actor with an assistant, travelling first class. The assistant can get his cases to the airport, he can hop on the tube to Paddington and get the Heathrow Express (which would take less than an hour from Covent Garden), meet the assistant to pick up his cases, he then gets whisked through check-in and security and heads straight to the First Class lounge. He probably only needs to allow an hour/hour and a half at the airport because he's not going to be queueing.
So he heads to the Donmar for 9am, is finished at 10am, makes it to the airport for about 11am, is in the lounge by 11.30am, gets a 1pm flight, lands 3.30pm local time and could be spotted out and about in Toronto that evening.
Does anyone else have a problem with timestamps on tweets? I am in the same time zone as Toronto, and if I open her tweet in my browser it gives a time of 7:56pm but in the Twitter app it lists the time as 10:56pm.
I think we are all overlooking the most important bit of that sighting - the girl did not mention Elizabeth Olsen. ;)
>>172 or a woman hiding into her scarf :)
>>170 No, I am planning that speaking personally as somebody who lives in NW London and travels internationally a lot for work, always first or business class. When you hit security there is always a bottleneck because although there is a fast track lane it is staffed by fewer people. It can be very variable.
>>170 But really, my fundamental issue with the putative "make it to Toronto in time" timetable is that it all sounds so effortful. Why not enjoy a day with your luvvie mates and travel in a more leisurely way the following day? A day like that would be hellishly stressful.
To link to a specific post without having to write the >> , just click/press on the post number you want to reply to, it will automatically appear in the reply box.
>>177 I just tried it and it works! Even on my phone!! You are so clever :))
>>176 I agree with you, but at the same time, it might be he had work to do today in Toronto that forced a stressful flight.
>>179 mine loads but I can only ever see the first page.
>>181 in theory when you reach the end of the page it should load more posts, like it happens with tumblr.
>>180 That's what I was assuming, that he would be press-junketing today and tomorrow before the premiere.
This is the guy who took a red-eye from LA to London the night before Coriolanus rehearsals started, then went straight from Heathrow to the Donmar the next morning. He's quite used to these kind of travel arrangements.
I have totally managed to get through check-in/bag-drop and security at Heathrow within 30-45 minutes before now, even travelling as a pleb, and I'm sure he gets a VIP service that shepherds him through as quickly as possible.
>>181 although that only works with the most recents posts, for the rest you need to register to weibo.
"Sony Pictures Classics Dinner
Sony Pictures Classics is hosting an intimate dinner to celebrate the studio’s six films premiering at TIFF on Sept. 12, at Creme Brasserie. Elisabeth Moss, Tom Hiddleston, and Elizabeth Olsen are slated to attend this years exclusive dinner celebration."
So, SPC's party on the 12th and HR's premiere celebration dinner on the 13th.
From the man himself, ISTL first video clip
https://twitter. com/twhiddleston/status/642009071806124033
Looks like he is concentrating hard while singing!
yeah, but it could be part of the story, like maybe the band was auditioning? He sounds good. I was expecting more stiffness in how he moved considering Hank's back problem, but again maybe at that point in the story the pain wasn't so strong.
He does sound good!
"‘Kong: Skull Island’ Moving From Universal to Warner Bros."
http://variety.com/2015/film/news/kong-skull-island-moving-from-universal-to-warner-bros-1201590301/
"Sources close to the situation say while this is not a done deal, things are moving forward and that the idea is to have future “Kong” films possibly cross over with “Godzilla” films, to which WB owns the sequel rights."
let's hope he doesn't get stuck with another franchise.
Some additional pics for ISTL.
http://www.nola.com/movies/index.ssf/2015/09/i_saw_the_light_tom_hiddleston.html
Since it was TH who posted that clip, do you think he had the scene with EO cut on purpose? lol (just kidding)
>>191 his voice is stronger than Hank's was, but it gives a more modern sound to the songs (I can't stand Hank's singing)
>>193 I can see it now - "Hey Olly, I have a job for you! Cut as much Lizzie Olsen out of this video clip as you can." I have to say it's odd to see a photo of her and Tom together without a scarf or purse covering her face. ;)
>>192 Skull Island is supposed to be set in the 70s, right? Maybe if they do further movies in the series or crossovers with Godzilla they'll be present day, and he won't have to worry about it.
Speaking of Kong, Universal Orlando is putting together some kind of Skull Island ride that will open before the film even comes out.
https://www.universalorlando.com/email-signup/skull-island-reign-of-kong.aspx
>>195 glad I'm not the only one who can't watch them on screen together without laughing a bit :)
But it is strange though, that pic of Hank and Audrey is clearly just after the end of the clip and media must have got it from somewhere, like the full trailer.
>>195 They are opening the ride now in case the film flops or doesn't get made?
>>197 Maybe they're hoping the ride will be a good promotion for it. Either that or they are much more confident in the film's success than we are.
>>198 Pity the ride is at universal and the film is moving to warners!
>>199 Universal has a good relationship with Warner - they license all the Harry Potter films from them for the Wizarding World - so they should be able to work out an arrangement for Skull Island, but it will probably cost them some serious money.
>>196 They probably got it from Torrilla like everybody else!
Red carpet for ISTL has started. Tom and EO arrived separately. Pics on Twitter and Torrilla.
Not I'd say looking very "together". He had more chemistry with Tilda Swinton for ISTL.
"Tom Hiddleston is very impressive in I SAW THE LIGHT, capturing Hank Williams voice with eerie power. I wish the film was better."

The reviews I'm sharing are a bit more critical of the film, since the very positive ones I've seen have all been from fangirl types. Not the most objective sources. :)

Hum. May explain why he has been tweeting about Crimson Peak more. Our boy's no fool and although he reasonably says he's proud of his performance in ISTL he probably knows in his heart of hearts that CP is the better film. I haven't seen a single tweet saying "meh CP".
He looks a bit subdued on the pics I've seen. Though on the bright side, his hair must have been flattened down for that suit photoshoot not cut really short. He looks nice.
Well, I was out enjoying my Friday night, I'll look everything later, but you want to tell me nobody on the red carpet asked if these two are together?
Hollywood reporter review
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/i-saw-light-tiff-review-822421
>>211 yep
I'm glad that his performance is well received. As for the film, we kind of knew it wasn't that good didn't we? Only fangirls could think that those not so good reports from the test-screens were a plot against TH.
This one's pretty bad:
www.hitfix.com/awards-campaign/review-tom-hiddleston-sings-but-cant-save-shockingly-bad-i-saw-the-light
If they did, nobody on tumblr has giffed or quoted it yet. State of play appears to be they arrived separately, no hand holding or PDA. There is one photo set of him with a arm around her (other hand in pocket!) but it is in front of the advertising board so whether it is "we are together" or "Tom poses with arm round co star as we have seen a hundred times before" is anybody's guess. Aside from the photos in front of the board I haven't seen any of them where he is touching her, or even where they are standing together save for the q&a after the movie.
And Bora Bora arm is back which made me chuckle: http://the-haven-of-fiction.tumblr.com/post/128872861103/hiddleshoneybunny-twh-news-hiddleslokid
>>215 ouch, but probably very accurate
>>216 There's one photo of them standing together at the after party, a couple of them with the cake, and some of them separately or with other co-stars/crew etc. They arrived at the party separately.
>>216 yes, I've just read EO was papped alone when she arrived in Toronto, but not TH. Given they also arrived separately at the RC, I would go as far as saying they are not even much friendly anymore, BoraBora arm is a declaration :)
Torrilla has video interviews.

>>219 Sorry should have expressed myself better. I knew he had been interviewed but I meant if someone had asked "are you together" I'd have expected it to be clipped or giffed whatever the answer.
>>218 I saw the after party pics. I didn't think they looked very together in Jose either. I appreciate they might not want to give everyone the money shot on the red carpet but if you're with someone surely there comes a point when you hold hands or something. I'd have thought the after party among friends would be that time.
>>223 Yeah. Even if they were together before (which I still doubt), I don't think they are now.
Also, there were a number of reporters doing interviews on the red carpet, but I don't think they've all posted their videos yet. I expect they'll go online during the weekend.
>>223 My bad, I haven't had coffee yet.
In that borabora hand photo she is angled away from him isn't she? not even an arm around him.
>>224 I doubt with you and add that if they were just friend, the friendship is gone now. as far as RC predictions go, we nailed the separate and hardly talking to each other part.
>>224 I am beginning to think you called it right. The body language feels very off to me. With Susanna Fielding he couldn't keep his hands off her. And with Tilda or Jess same thing though they obviously never dated. At the OLLA premiere he and Tilda were so sexy with one another I would have believed it if someone told me they were going out. He held her hand the whole time and he couldn't take his eyes off her.
>>226 High five to all the wonderful people on this board! Sometimes I feel like this is the one place on the internet to find reasonable people, at least in regards to Tom.
Well, I guess TH doesn't have to intensively promote this film at festivals at this point.
LA Times article about HR.
http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-toronto-high-rise-20150912-story.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&dlvrit=95867
>>227 He totally had a crush on Tilda, nobody will be able to convince me otherwise. :)
>>227 Tilda always hold hands with her friends, she said so in an interview, I found their behaviour very similar to how Rachel behaved with TH at TIFF for The Deep Blue See, maternal.
I mean look at this photos, she is not even looking at him.
https://twitter. com/hiddleston_news/status/642527076369702912
(I know I'm exaggerating because the photos are just an instant, but it's fun)
selfies with fans
https://twitter. com/hiddleston_news/status/642461579896848384
>>232 Yeah, but in some other photos she is pressing her body against his. I really don't get it...
>>230 I'd go gay for Tilda, I think she's wonderful! Totally agree that he fancied her madly. And she him. I thought they looked gorgeous together. Always assumed that when he was with a GF you'd see the same chemistry. When he's hot for someone it's pretty obvious. Not the case yesterday.
But whence US Weekly? I still don't buy that the May article was a total fabrication.
>>228 And yes totally. That's why I'm here. I like to think we can speculate on a fun way without being crazy about it.
And - most fun of all - bets are on for the HR red carpet....!!!
>>234 it's the thing with photos, they can trick your eyes :)
But the RC was live on periscope and from what I'm reading, they were really distant.
>>236 HR's red carpet prediction: no show for EO.
>>238 I agree. I doubt Tom would want the HR red carpet to turn into some big TH/EO speculation.
The link at Torrilla doesn't work for me so here's the direct link to the RedCarpetDiary interview

http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/large/6e14d388gw1evzfcrnjdsj21dl23odvu.jpg
>>239 me too. Though that was my prediction when we first discussed it!!
>>242 you know you're right, to make it more interesting we should add motivations, no show because there was never anything going on, because there's nothing going on now or because they don't want that kind of chattering?
Though after last night there's hardly much doubt left and TH's didn't mind the chattering when he was with SF at TIFF.
Maybe we could shift our predictions to HR's dinner party?
>>243 I repeat my post 903 on the last thread (sorry don't know how to link to it)!
Duh I mean 904. Though qaz was also bang on the money in 903.
>>244 Oh yes, and I used your 1 motivation for my prediction if I remember well: there was never anything going on.
We really were quite thorough in thread3, there's basically everything :)
I reckon something went on during filming. The break up of her engagement, him going underground and all method-y, and the original US Weekly article all to my mind point to some intense connection and time together. Whether sexual who knows. I think like most holiday romances once it got into real life it was utimately doomed. Pursegategate looks in retrospect like the last hurrah. I think after that encounter only one person thought the relationship had legs. I imagine its demise has been hastened by the knowledge that the film is a stinker.
So I still go with no 2 on balance - just.
Oh and by the way WHAT is Elizabeth Olsen wearing? She is pretty with a good figure and yet she appears to be wearing the drapes from around Morticia's dressing table. Why?
>>248 Hahaha I know! The dress is awful, and so are the shoes. She looked nice at Deauville a couple days ago in the white dress, I'm not sure what happened between then and TIFF.
variety review's where they compliment EO, a lot.
http://variety.com/2015/film/reviews/i-saw-the-light-review-hank-williams-toronto-film-festival-1201590446/
Tonight is SPC's party at Creme Brasserie, 2nd public occasion before HR.
smiling at TH standing one step ahead of everyone else during the q&a. he did that 2 years ago too didn't he?
oh, did EO gibe TH during the q&a "he's so much more eloquent than I am" as in "he talks so much"?
>>251 ouch. not a good review at all as far as the film as a whole goes. Despite the individual performance being praised I doubt they will get the nominations since the film seems by common consensus to be poor. These are the worst reviews I have seen of a project he's been involved in. I feel so sorry for him after he invested so much emotional energy into it.
>>255 yes, much as one can be happy about his work, it's difficult to promote a film nobody likes.
Did someone understood what was said at minute 19:55, when a fan says something to TH and EO jumps in and then says sorry? I can't hear anything.
*understand
>>259 Thanks! Anything else of interest? I no longer have the energy to wade through all that "my husband on the veranda" crap that those CB threads get swamped with.
Random thought on the q&a - if nobody knew the history would anybody look at them and think they were together? If they are in a relationship they are hiding it unbelievably well.
>>261 nobody, but actually, that's problem I have with pap night, if we didn't have the usweekly article in May, we would never have taken that for a romantic date, the body language was all wrong.
Yeah they looked to me almost like they'd had a row.
Against my better judgment I had a peek at CB. The party line over there seems to be that they are together but because he is a Good Person he is not using it for publicity and/or not baiting the fans with it. I must say I really don't get the logic there. If they are together, wasn't the whole point of pap night to get it out there so the fans could get over themselves and/or as a prelude to the RC so it didn't look totally manufactured? And I still would be surprised if he could keep a lid on his feelings. I would expect this at the very least http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=14kv32r&s=5#.VfQ2WYZ4WrU
Or this: http://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/actors-tom-hiddleston-and-tilda-swinton-attend-the-news-photo/169457816
Aren't they just adorable?
>>265 or like with Lara Pulver http://i.imgur.com/E0Z0r5H.jpg
There's absolutely no logic to that line of thought, it doesn't even take into consideration the fact that after pap night they spent more than a month apart and it's not like they were especially busy (and since we had an almost weekly sighting of him we know she wasn't with him).
Besides, we are focusing on TIFF, but TH has other festivals and RCs to attend and then he'll be off filming so not spending time together at all makes no sense.
>>266 Though I always thought the hug for LP was just solidarity with someone else who thought orange was a good colour for foundation....
>>267 lol
I remember the DM not even reconizing her and calling her TH's new love and she tweeted about it, because she had a bf and making fun of them because they couldn't spot her unless she was naked.
Am I right that TIFF Is the only festival outing for ISTL that he was slated to attend? Then I guess the U.S. premiere whenever that is, if he can make it with filming commitments. Not actually many more opportunities for us to see them together. And I shall be interested to see how much SPC pushes it after those bad reviews, and how he copes doing publicity for it. Just posting those OLLA links and comparing the thousand watt smile to yesterday made me see a real difference. Or comparing yesterday to ComicCon when he looked like he was having the time of his life.

And we are back with media using the romance to promote the film

There could be others. I can't believe they are not going to use TIFF to either squash these rumours.
That Daily Mail article was awful. Most of their articles are awful. Plus some of the info was wrong - that sneaky tumblr pic was taken only a couple days before the paparazzi incident in July, not all the way back in May.
Unless they outright deny that they are dating, the media will keep reporting on the "relationship." Romance gets people to click links and buy papers. And I don't think they're going to deny it - I think they will let the press use the "on and off screen couple!" angle of promotion since the reviews of ISTL have been so bad save for their performances.
Commenter #51 on Celebitchy is thinking along the same lines as I am.
"#Selfie of the century with Tom Hiddleston. 😍"
https://twitter. com/crackliffe/status/642831321996390400
I guess this is at the SPC party? First pic I've seen of Tom in that suit in Toronto.
"At EW's annual 'Must' party held @ThompsonToronto this aft: Sandra Bullock, Bryan Cranston, Jessica Chastain, Tom Hiddleston, et al #TIFF15"
https://twitter. com/shinangovani/status/642851683916079104
So it was an EW party.
Here's one of Tom with Jessica Chastain: http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/actors-jessica-chastain-and-tom-hiddleston-attend-ews-must-news-photo/487934946
Elizabeth Olsen was there, but so far no photos of her with Tom.
>>282 I think saying nothing may be the smartest thing he has done in ages. What can he say to make it better? No we were never dating makes her look really really bad (US Weekly loser article). Saying we were but we aren't now is hurtful to her - and as you say loses the only angle anyone is currently interested in. Saying we are dating - doesn't appear to be true. Every article about the relationship angle is going with the pic of them together in front of the advertising board. I still haven't seen anything of them together looking like a couple as opposed to co stars.

" I still haven't seen anything of them together looking like a couple as opposed to co stars." Indeed, including last night
Look at how he greeted Elizabeth Moss

He is definitely dating an Olsen. Peggy Olsen that is.
It was suggested on tumblr they arrived separately "but walked the red carpet together." This appears to mean that they posed in front of the advertising signboard for about 3 photos.
>>298 According to that logic he's also dating Elisabeth Moss, Jessica Chastain, and Marc Abraham, and he's married to Eddie Redmayne.
>>299 according to that logic, he's married to Eddie, friend with the other three, and barely in touch with EO ;)
Yeah, he really hearts Eddie!
>>283 Yes I get that. Also though I see the force of one of the replies, that Just Jared and co have precious little to write about given that the film is pants so they will use the "romance" angle to generate click bait if they can't write "Oscar shoe in".
I bet it's the first time he's seen Eddie this year - I reckon there were some Oscar congratulations going on there. Looking at the Getty pictures they shook hands with one hand each, then moved to the double-handed handshake, then went into a full-on body hug.
Similarly he probably hasn't seen Elizabeth Moss since last year when they finished filming, and Jessica Chastain since Comic Con.
I'm glad to see him looking happy - he has seemed a bit subdued to me recently.
>>302 yes I don't think that particular poster was saying TH and EO are using again the romance to promote the film, but the media are. And I also thought so, since they are gossip outlets - with the exception of Hollywood Reporter.
However it's annoying, because it's the film that received bad reviews, not the two of them, but unfortunately to people that don't follow him it will look like it's TH and EO using their romance to support their film.
>>303 He was in school with Eddie so it's hardly a mystery that they are friends, though maybe not close ones - based solely on the fact TH wasn't at Eddie's wedding.
You can't really see from the torrilla pics but that jacket is knitted! He should wear it with the tie...!
>>307 you can, if you enlarge it ;)
He is not as fit as I thought he would be, or maybe it's because he was slouching, especially in that snapchat/gifs video.
>>305 Yes, I know. I always get the impression they're more like Facebook friends than friends-friends - they keep up with what each other are doing, they know all the same people, and they're happy to see each other and chat in real life, but they don't really make an effort to hang out socially.
I don't think they've ever been spotted together outside of a work context.
>>308 I thought that. I wondered whether it was because the t shirt is a bit drapey and clingy. He does like those rather diaphanous v neck t shirts. Do you remember the almost transparent one?
>>310 yes, but it seems like he bought a new set fall/winter collection.
>>309 indeed, but it's nice that he goes along so well with his colleagues.
>>313 I think she was talking about EO as she was replying to a comment about tablecloth dress (which I confess I liked!)
I'd say he is more excited to have his arm round Brie (ahem) http://cheers-mrhiddleston.tumblr.com/post/128996046657/hiddlestonredalert-marcandrewsmith-great
I'd say that like you pointed out yesterday, it's one thing to not make a show of a relationship on RC and Q&A if you want to keep it private, but never be close or spending time together at parties it's just not natural or normal for 2 people who are dating. And there were fans at those parties who would have spotted them.
(I take it Brie isn't anymore with her 2013's bf?)
>>316 I think I mostly like it because she is wearing decent shoes and has brushed hair and proper makeup. She looks really pretty with a classic eyeliner and a red lip but that smudgy gothy eye makeup she had the day before does nothing for her.

too lazy to post all the links. You guys know how to get the HQ version by now.
>>320 He has gone mad with the new clothes hasn't he? New jacket, new top, new shoes. Still we'll be seeing that t shirt 1,000,000 times over the next few years.
>>321 And he was wearing that photoshoot's lilac shirt last night, with striped suit. I don't know if we can handle so many new outfit in one go.
>>322 Suits he buys quite a few of. But he has had a casual clothes explosion recently see also the weird grey jacket at comic con (inevitably with white v necked tee). I notice he has been true to form insofar as he wore a new coat to Letters Live which he was still wearing in the sneaky bicycle pics in July! If you look at the knitted jacket on the gif it is about as like a grandad cardigan as a garment could be while still being a jacket. Bless.
>>323 that's true about the suits, but I was surprised by the change of colour, lilac was unheard of so far. New coat to replace the quilted ones, knitted jacket to replace the old sweater. New set of v necked tshirt. New vans!
What will the future bring? Please let it be new boots.
>>324 Fat chance with the boots I suspect. He wore them to pursegategate with the Letters Live coat. They are his one true enduring love.
He perhaps feels trusting of the lilac shirt because he was enticed to wear it in the photo shoot. Everything else is still black white grey or navy! He is adorably useless at casual dressing.
>>326 that chemistry was so much in evidence yesterday!
>>327 Totally! And she mentions this detail, that in 2011 when TH had a gf they had perfect chemistry, now that there are rumours about them being a couple (which MTV reports).
If there was a leak to USWeekly, she was so behind it. I can see why that CB poster said EO has a sense of entitlement.
>>328 She still wants it so bad. No wonder he looked very awkward on the first night. Probably the first time they saw each other since PurseGate.
new clip for Crimson Peak (I haven't watched it so I can't say if there are spoilers)
https://twitter. com/crimsonpeak/status/643106903308898304
>>329 I don't know about her still wanting it. It seems to me that she's taking revenge where she can. Yesterday at the Q&A with that gibe about his eloquence, here she goes after his thoroughness "I feel like when you’re always that thorough you always have that expectation and other people have that expectation".
>>331 I agree. I think Elizabeth's saccharin-sweet comments about Tom are just her way of passive-aggressively setting herself up to be the "poor girlfriend" when this thing finally ends. Very odd that they were interviewed separately.
>>331 I think we are agreed that all is not well in the garden of shag! I wonder if he met her for the first time when he got out of his limo.
I see even CB, which usually casts quite a jaded eye on life, is buying (or click baiting) the "they are together and posed as a couple" - what????
Help! Two couch potatoes!
>>330 watched it. No. But could the full length theatrical trailer be any more spoilery anyway?
Sorry, the not-Couch Potato is me. I don't know why it posted like that.
>>336 I think if you forget to put a name in it calls you CP automatically. I am aware mine is not the most original or distinctive but nobody else uses the same (amazingly!) so it seems to have stuck!
>>336 It's okm the board gives the name Couch Potato to any post where the Name space isn't filled. Mine is blue to mark the difference in case of occasional poster :)
>>335 I have such a good feeling about CP. Instead I'm a bit tensed for HR.
>>338 Ahh, ok. Well, I guess I've got a board name now! Anyway, I just looked at MTv Josh H's Twitter & pretty much all of his TIFF interviews are group interviews. The Martian cast, Trumbo cast & on-screen couples were interviewed together: NHoult & KStew, JasonS & AlisonB. Kinda sticks out that Tom & Lizzie weren't.
>>340 Even at Comic Con he did group cast interviews. Tom, Jessica Chastain, and Mia W were all interviewed together - which we still haven't seen video of.

Hey, nippers. Dropping in to say Hi and deliver this gift:
http://www.refinery29.com/2015/09/93890/elizabeth-olsen-i-saw-the-light-tom-hiddleston-tiff
For those that don't want to wade through.
There have been a lot of links between you and Tom Hiddleston, about you two dating. I don’t know if that’s something you confirm, but how do you feel —
"I mean, we definitely are friends and we've known each other for about four years. And we happened to be at a restaurant at a wrong time having dinner. We all go out to dinner."
How do you react when you see that in the press?
"Well, apparently, I'm dating Chris Evans, and apparently, I've dated Jeremy Renner, so I guess that... I don’t react to it."
So you're not dating Tom?
"No. I mean people can think what they want to think."
Just about to post that from the Lipstick site.
Answer to the last question btw:
"No."
Missed you guys. I've been on holiday - up in the mountains without internet or even cell coverage! Back to work.
Seriously though ... his longest lasting public relationship after SF has to be with - Luke.
(I'm running away now as the flames reach my feet)...
Well, I was wrong - I thought they were just going to let the speculation ride.
>>358 Hahaha either Luke or that one sweater from the Live Below the Line and Loki'd videos.
God. I go out for dinner and come back to this?!!!!
Good for you Couch - you called it right!
This leaves me even more fascinated by the U.S. Weekly articles. Where from? I still find it hard to believe that was a total off the wall fabrication which she had nothing to do with.
>>359 I too am amazed that she admitted it. I wonder if she let the "no" out slightly by accident as in "no. Er, I mean, people can think what they like."
PS you can't keep the new favourite Letters Live jacket down!! http://m.weibo.cn/page/tpl?containerid=1005051846858632_-_WEIBO_SECOND_PROFILE_WEIBO&itemid=&title=全部微博#showPic
>>360 As she pointed out in that interview, someone (cough her PR cough) has a history of linking her to famous actors in the press, and then she denies the relationships a few months later. This is actually something that went on with her even before she was engaged to Boyd Holbrook, so I think it's part of her PR's strategy. Though I'm still not exactly sure what they're trying to do - make her look desirable? like a victim of the press? just to keep her name out there by suggesting she's romantic or hooking up with her costars? Of course there's a chance that maybe something was going on between her and Tom and it's not anymore, therefore denial, but I don't think so.
>>362 I wonder if there was something, fairly new or casual, that got killed by the publicity. Or that somebody (guess who, cough cough) wanted there to be something going on.
Anyway a lot of gossip journalists will be eating dirt tomorrow. Celebitchy suggested she was pregnant under that peplum!
>>360
Why do you find that hard to believe? It wouldn't be the first time a gossip site has made up a story!
'People can think what they like' is celeb-speak for 'I don't really care who random strangers think I'm dating'. That's exactly why the gossip sites get away with just making shit up - they know most celebs don't think it's worth getting upset about, as long as they're not actually accused of cheating, which would be libel. Hence all the gossip sites being so careful about saying there was no cheating going on.
So that's that, I guess. Weird that Lizzie just let the rumors grow & grow & grow for almost 9 months & then acts all indignant that she's actually asked to clarify. Whatever. But I gotta say, now that it's pretty clear Lizzie won't get any award nominations, I wonder if that's why she wanted to put the rumor to rest. This rumor no longer helps Lizzie, it only helps the film & possibly Tom.
>>364 Because she is known to use US Weekly as her PR organ of choice. As for example Clooney uses People. It was fairly extensively discussed on (I think) thread 3.

Review by William Bibbiani, Crave Online:
http://www.craveonline.com/culture/900741-tiff-2015-review-high-rise-impressive-erection
Well I got it right but I thought they would ask him since he is the homewrecker. I guess Luke made it clear to press that TH won't answer that sort of question:
I think as a strategy it goes along with what I said about her and her gibes at TH. I'm with Anon that she went a bit JA and tried to create a relationship and since it didn't work now she is the one talking. Again she says they have been friends for 4 years, so she didn't cheat on her fiancè.
This is why I thought it would be better for TH to squash the rumour first. Now since EO talked I wonder if he will too.
I take her presence at HR premiere in that fashion as work, mainly because given their behaviour these past 2 days, what else could it be?
this is from CB, a collection of twitter comments for HR fromthe audience I guess.
“HIGH-RISE isn’t SNOWPIERCER in a condo, it’s COSMOPOLIS.”
“HIGH-RISE is a wonderfully mad piece of cinema. Super faithful Ballard adaptation, both to its benefit and detriment. ”
“#HighRise: fear and loathing on the social ladder. above and beyond; unforgettable experience”
“Well that’s 2 hours I’ll never get back. Polite tepid applause for Ben Wheatley’s #HighRise, worst film I’ve seen at #TIFF15 so far”
“High Rise was kind of like Snowpiercer but awful”
“I would like to have my two hours back please, High-Rise.”
“High-Rise was… interesting. Not my cup of tea, but then it did have Tom Hiddleston dancing and in various states of undress.”
“HIGH RISE: like a nightmare you can’t wake up from; incoherent, irritating and something you’ll hope to forget.”
“#highrise is more interested in metaphors than story. Too bad I like my movies with less ironies than character developments.”

About EO and why she is talking now, together with saying that it's because she knows nothing will ever happen and she moved on, obviously it might also be that they were always just friends, though why just friends wouldn't hang out together at parties it's a mystery.

Hi guys, I had a busy weekend and missed all the latest news :)
So, if anything was happening at all, it's apparently over.
>>363 I do wonder if there was something developing or if there were at least attempts to start something.
TBH, I have a hunch that maybe there were, only we don't know what exactly, and obviously not the "they are talking all the time and dream of family and babies" thing gossip rags were blabbing about.
>>343 The boots are back, yay! Lol
>>373 And now I'm eagerly waiting for HR!

"We shot it very fast, we shot the film in 38 days, it's long yeah and it was longer. I was in everyday and in every scene and so I just, I didn't really have time to be myself."

Screendaily article about HR
http://m.screendaily.com/5093065.article
Btw, EO arrived holding hands with....ISTL's director Abrahams
http://wthanon4u.tumblr.com/post/129054588225/so-to-stop-some-of-the-silly-fan-girl-fantasy#notes
with knitted blue tie
http://ww2.sinaimg.cn/large/6e14d388gw1ew1rpkjpuxj21kw2l0e81.jpg
>>391 And TH, a kind soul that he is, was acting as a decoy to help her hide the relationship with the director, and not with Chris E.! Lol
>>391 who is HE?
>>396 no anonsy, MY bad, i've been skimming and posting so many things while also working that my brain clearly can handle it anymore. You were perfectly clear :)
>>397 Haha I understand, I spent so much time on Twitter the day of the ISTL premiere and saw so many hashtags that when the reviews came out I could barely read real sentences anymore.
From the Screendaily review, do not read that review if you want to avoid spoiler.
"In Tom Hiddleston, the director has found an actor who can deliver the central character’s essential distance with the right mix of sympathy, intelligence and raw carnality. The film sings, and, frequently, dances; it feels alive."
See, watching the variety studio fandango video you can totally say "they were only just friends". EO says that she met with TH 4 years ago and they kept in touch all these years. So to me it makes no sense that they'd wait so much to crazy fall in love with each other. And when watching the hollywood reporter video even my own speculations about EO throwing gibes at TH make little sense.
But I'm so happy we are done with this, I swear this is the last time I join the speculation game about his love life.
>>401 Oh what a load of absolute bollocks Kaiser is spouting. She is covering her back because yesterday she ran a "pregnancy?" story. And if she believes the "photographed together multiple times in London" story then she is out of her mind. There were 2 occasions: creepy stalker fan shot and pursegategate.
By contrast this sounds plausible (also from CB):
"Old and cynical party of one here to propose a theory:
Someone’s PR team leaked the dating stories ahead of the film festivals to garner some press. The same PR person likely tipped off the paps re: the posh dinner “date”, and probably planted the stories on the gossip sites that they’ve been an item since filming.
Jump ahead to the film festival, where the only good things being said about ISTL are the reviews of Hiddleston’s performance.
So, this film isn’t going to be a contender, neither actor is likely to be nominated for a major award. (Or a leg lamp, for that matter.) Therefore, no more reason to play the “are they or aren’t they” game, hence the flat out denials about dating. If the film were getting better reviews, I have no doubt that this would’ve played out differently."
Makes some sense of the U.S. Weekly article.
>>402 I don't know what's worse, her writing that bs, or people reacting to it. If they were a couple she would have said nothing, to avoid looking like idiots in the future. Now that she talked others will maybe ask her.
>>403 yes, I think we even covered it in thread3, but I don't see TH playing this game, since he probably already knew the film was so-so. So it'd be her PR.
I know we said as a joke, about EO and ISTL's director, but isn't it strange to hold hands with the director of your film and another film's première?
>>404 It is fun to speculate when it is ambiguous pics or gossipy articles (even if seeming to be planted). But when it comes from the horse's mouth in clear terms I tend to say "ok game over". I know celebs do lie - Clooney denied dating Amal and then got engaged but the interesting thing was that he had never commented before (save I think to confirm known relationships were over). But EO has commented on rumours before and was keen seemingly to get the accurate story out about her breakup with Boyd. She was asked and she was pretty direct about TH.
>>406 yes, me too. But if you read CB posters they are writing the most absurd plots and things that can't be proved just to go on talking about it. Oh well, it took how many months for people to stop with JA? It's going to be the same here.
>>407 And I say this all as someone who thought they were. I still think they may have been, and she didn't exactly say they never had. But as to what is going on now - all the evidence points one way. Also, as others have commented in a not so mad way, I'd they are dating why not just say MYOB? There is no downside to that response either way - don't engage and let people in, and keep the rumour mill going.
I notice that in the opposite "believe EO" camp, US Weekly, previously supposed to be founded on verified "sightings" between Jan - May, is now considered to be vicious and inherently unbelievable rumour. How did we ever fall for that? I think the truth may lie somewhere in between. Not that we will ever know.

High Rise Telegraph review
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/film/high-rise/review/
again do not read if you don't want spoilers
>>401 Ugh. Has the reporting on CB always been this bad? I know they're a gossip website, but it seems like they've gotten more ridiculous over the last few months.
>>415 TH's always were a little more on the news then trying to clickbait people into posting. Not anymore. I guess they need more money.
>>416 I'm not even going to bother with them anymore. I used to check celebitchy for Tom and a couple other celebrities, but it's completely pointless if the articles are going to be so terrible and the comments are going to be about Colin Firth being locked in someone's trunk or making pancakes on the veranda or whatever.
In the meantime there a parade of blues to admire
http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/large/6e14d388gw1ew2k2a7xhgj21kw2fbb29.jpg
more at Torrilla's
>>419 very much, and it's pleasant to talk about it.
>>415 >>417 They were always more or less sensible and skeptic over there, IDK WTH happened.
Don't even get me started about husbands and verandas, it was maybe somewhat funny two years ago when the old posters (who had better imagination and sense of humour and who do not visit anymore) started that "imaginary life". Now it's just so tired and boring.
I don't really know this site, it seems another gossip one but she had an interview with TH and EO
http://www.laineygossip.com/Interviewing-Tom-Hiddleston-and-Elizabeth-Olsen-TIFF-for-I-Saw-The-LightInterviewing-Tom-Hiddleston-and-Elizabeth-Olsen-at-TIFF-for-I-Saw-The-Light/40630
>>421
Oh, that still makes me laugh, mainly because I think it's a sly way of commenting on the general nonsense and conspiracy theories some people over there spout.
There's no more imagination involved in the picnics on the veranda than there is is the convoluted conspiracy theories about pap walks and PR set-ups and co-stars being FWBs, etc.
>>421 >>424 I seem to remember it all starting with the Tom Hiddleston Jaguar commercial, where he puts a mysterious bag into the trunk of his car. People joked that it was Mark Strong in the bag, since he was the other "villain" in the first commercial. Then Strong was hiding in the trunk, somehow Colin Firth ended up in there, and now two years later we have a whole harem of male actors serving brunch and mimosas. Which, yes, is probably more realistic than a lot of what gets posted in the actual articles on CB lately. ;)
It's refreshing to see people with a sense of humour, because some of the over-invested fans over there scare me a bit!
As it happens I think they would have made a cute couple together, but if they say they're just friends then I'll take their word for it over the speculations of people who have never met them based on a few seconds' worth of photographs.
OK, is it my imagination, or does their comments in this really make it sound like they've been reading celebitchy comments and going 'whaaaat?'
LOL
>>427 Now CB are debating EO's relationship with her director.. poor girl.
For whatever it's worth though, it sounds like both parties are denying anything other than dinner on that pap night.
More fire on the flames - isn't JA turning up to the HR premiere in London in support of Clint Mansell?
Looking forward to seeing all three films, in any case.
Don't get me started (again) on Celebitchy. Seems like for every individual covered there is nowsome queen bitch telling everybody what the party line is. What has happened to the TH threads? When I first discovered TH I read back some of the more commented upon articles and they were hilarious: very affectionate but they also saw the funny side of his foibles. Nowadays if someone expresses any view no matter how anodyne some loon will leap on it disagreeing and flog it to death. I personally think all this crap about verandas is no more than a way to police views expressed on the board (if you're not in my gang etc). It's not so much mimosas for everyone as disagree with me and I will chuck you into my crocodile infested bayou.
Much more importantly, why has a film featuring both Luke Evans and TH cavorting naked, with bonus Jeremy Irons and James Purefoy, not acquired a UK distributor?
>>427 thank you.
"“We went out to dinner in London, and everybody [assumed],” says Hiddleston with a laugh.
“Apparently you don’t go out to dinner at that restaurant,” Olsen chimes in. (The restaurant was London’s elegant The Wolseley on Picadilly.)
“Mustn’t do that,” adds Hiddleston.
“We happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time having dinner, and people have dinner, and then it becomes a lot of things,” says Olsen, clearly amused. “I mean, I’m apparently in lots of relationships right now.”"
TH addressed it! Now I got it right! haha
But I think both parts decided to do this and that they are friendly but not friends anymore, because like that Lainey reported:
"But for what it’s worth, I can tell you that at the I Saw The Light after-party, aside from posing for photos together, they barely had any interaction."

>>428 As I wrote, I admit being a bit puzzled by the holding hands - especially when I remember that EO is 26 years old, 1 year older than Emma Watson - I found it odd in that occasion, and it's true that Abraham was married when ISTL filming started and he isn't anymore, and by what he said during ISTL press conference it was a costly divorce. And look at thewrap video, EO and Abraham have some interesting body language.
However, unless we'll have a future article claiming those 2 are a couple and their love started on ISTL set, I'm ok with not caring about it :)

From what I read of HR's script so far, from what I read of the Q&A and what they said at the press conference, I think the Guardian's review is the most accurate.

This is a very interesting article about Legendary Universal and Skull Island
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/hollywood-gorilla-warfare-s-universal-823715?utm_source=twitter
While here it's about problems regarding CP, which may explain the absence from festivals and all these prescreenings.
"Now that Legendary has moved Kong, that settles a brewing argument over the script's references to Monarch, the secret government entity in Godzilla that employed the characters played by Ken Watanabe and Sally Hawkins. Obviously, the inclusion of Monarch in Kong is a move to tie the ape into a hoped-for Godzilla "universe."
So, if I understand well what THR is writing, now Kong is back being a sequel and it takes place in modern times? Otherwise how can the same organization from Godzilla exists in the '70?

>>477 it is a shirt that looks like one your grandad would wear. Apparently over at Mr Porter this is a selling point!
Here's Tom in a grandad cardigan:
http://tomismonochromaticallyfabulous.tumblr.com/post/77054536702/quilted-jacket-yup-check-seen-this-enough
And another one (he has a lot of these): http://tomismonochromaticallyfabulous.tumblr.com/post/79184786873/holy-shitting-cow-look-at-this-cardigan-it-seems
And the one with the zips which I thought for a while had been grafted onto his body: http://thetomhiddlestoneffect.tumblr.com/post/69636128158/ruvenlock-documenting-tom-hiddlestons-love
This is funny, where I live these cardigans would never be considered that way, but actually very elegant in a csual way, while the grandad shirts would just be considered badly cut and cheap, no grandad would ever wear a shirt like that.
And this, though doubtless Ralph Lauren and very expensive, is a grandad jumper. It has a high round neck and a big cable knit pattern. He looks very cute in it but that's him and not the jumper. I am sure my dad (in his 70s) has a jumper like this (not from Ralph Lauren): http://m.weibo.cn/page/tpl?containerid=1005051846858632_-_WEIBO_SECOND_PROFILE_WEIBO&itemid=&title=全部微博#showPic
>>482 With all the effort he put in having new stuff to wear - I wonder, if all of his new wardrobe for TIFF was offered by RL how many of those he is going to keep?
Quite a few of his clothes seem to be stolen from photo shoots or given to him (the boots, the Loki scarf). He only seems to know one shop - the one that sells V neck t shirts. I imagine he will keep them so he doesn't need to shop for the next 5 years!
>>484 true, if you need a V neck tshirt TH is your man.
>>483 I assume Tom will keep the new clothes. He's been given suits for premieres before. Armani or some designer stitched a tag w/ some 'expressly made for Tom Hiddleston' thing in the suit given to Tom for the War Horse premiere. What's weird is, female actresses don't get to keep the premiere clothes they're given, but male actors do. LOL, what's up w/ that?!?
>>486 The suits I have no doubt I was mostly wondering about the casual outifts - Probably because nobody gives men grief for wearing the same suits to multiple RCs while women must always look different, for some obscure reason.
>>486 maybe because women's RC outfits are so expensive relatively speaking.
I get that actors get more red carpet mileage out of 1 suit than actresses get out of 1 dress, but still seems like actresses are shafted. Their rc dresses are sample sizes (another reason why they starve themselves, so they can fit into sample sizes). For actors, their rc suits are custom made, cost a fortune & are just given to them. Actors aren't shamed into forcing themselves to be model thin, it'd be nice if actresses weren't either. But to get back on track, I like how Tom looked at TIFF, even tho he could repeat some of theses suits at future red carpets, I hope he gets a few new ones & tries some different rc looks.
>>489 maybe actresses should just change the game for themselves.

Vanity Fair - Tom Hiddleston Explains How He Learned to Loosen Up and Yodel - I Saw the Light - TIFF 2015
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvtWIlA8QrI&feature=youtu.be
This is an interview with James Ivory from the NY (sometimes CB is useful) at some point he confirms that his next project is RIchard II with TH
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/11/t-magazine/james-ivory-house.html
(this is a bit OT but I found it mentioned at CB and it's a photo of EO walking, on her left is TH but on her right she is arm in arm with Abraham, the instagram poster confirms it in the comments. https://instagram.com/p/7vJcHdHVrJ/
so, in the end I think that EO and TH being just friend was really true.)
>>500 He says he is "working on" - this one I think has been in the pipeline for a loooong time. Not sure TH has ever even mentioned it. I think I mean even JI may not be immune to voicing celebrity casting aspirations.
>>502 Actually I thought the project was dead so I was a bit surprised he mentioned it again.
>>503 I'd heard that. Perhaps it is hard at his age to admit he is basically retired.
>>501 Don't tell the bicycle. After a comment on here from anonsy I took a look last night and she is in terminal meltdown, screaming and calling everyone nannies for believing EO! Her reaction when TH also confirmed it was hilarious. Her latest theory is it's an elaborate cover up and that a cumberbaby equivalent cannot be far away.
>>505 lol a sore loser.

well, Torrilla has all of them and it was boring.
>>510 Too right they were. I felt like asking why is the latest "teaser" revelatory of the minuscule amount of plot previously remaining secret?
BTW I think we may have had a visit or two from some of the celebitches. They were talking rather defensively today about how much they love sitting on their verandah. Strange coincidence, huh?
>>495 I fear that with one of his idols so close (RDN), TH may be in danger of letting his nerves get the best of him.
I just don't want him to do something titish! And, God, please, no dancing. No dancing, and no singing.
Just low key class and brief, intelligent answers with touches of humor.
>>512 Don't think so, in one of the numerous TH's threads of this week a few people posted against that so it's probably about those posters. Tbh, I think it's very rude to do so, it's one thing to write elsewhere why you don't like CB anymore, one another to go there.
>>513 I hope not mainly because it would look old? But I don't know this show, is it humorous like the Chatty Man? Because I guess that the host might comment on him dancing in High Rise and asking him to perform, and then what can he do?
Crimson Peak Interview - Tom Hiddleston
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-W1-reorrSs&feature=youtu.be
Tom Hiddleston talks Loki in the Marvel movies and King Kong: Skull Island!
http://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/614493-exclusive-tom-hiddleston-talks-the-future-of-loki-and-king-kong#/slide/1
>>515 Graham Norton is fun and anarchic (though unlike Chatty Man he does not completely set my teeth on edge). I would say dancing is likely.
>>514 I would never go on CB and tell those particular posters what I think. As I think qaz said on a previous thread, everyone comes to the fandom in their own way. On the other hand, it swamps every thread because it is brought up as a response to every comment seemingly. It seems reasonable enough to point that out and say "a bit less please." As I write this I marvel at my naivety expecting people on the Internet to behave in a moderate way!!
>>517 if Norton is like that, it's a good thing we don't have a HR trailer yet, imagine all the gifs on tumblr about his sex scenes and if he were asked about them.
>>495 Oh, finally, I like this show a lot, the host is great (in my opinion), he somehow manages to make his guests relaxed and entertaining, and I was wondering mildly why TH was never on it. I've even seen some musings from other people that maybe GN didn't like him personally, or smth. But probably just because the projects where he was in the lead weren't considered big enough, and huge franchises, like Marvel movies, had other bigger names in them who were invited to promote on the GN.
I do hope that they will not make him dance or do other silly stuff.
>>515 I watched the very first GN shows when I was living in London. Mostly, he made fun of the audience, asking them to share stories and pics. I think he still does. I like the show.
However, some of the stuff he does with stars can be cringe-tastic. I remember him sharing fan fiction stories with D Radcliffe. I think he read the summaries of some of the crazier ones. He also likes to share fan art like Chatty Man did.
I - even if it does seem old and stuffy - don't want TH to have to confront fan fiction summaries. Or anymore fan art.
There are other ways to be funny and entertaining.
>>520 I hope so and it's not really about being old and stuffy, simply it'd be a pity for his upcoming films to be reduced to sex scenes and what his fans do on tumblr.
>>520 Oh yeah, he likes to do that. That's the only thing about the show that I have a slight beef with. Well, the most of TH-related fanfiction probably involves Loki, and he's promoting entirely different movies now (I guess apart from multiple gifs there's not so many fanfics or fanart of those already?), so let's hope GN won't bring it up. Although with him you never know.
>>521 Please, God, do NOT let GN bring up his tag. Hopefully, Luke will put the kibosh on that sort of thing. Time to disassociate himself with Tumblr.
Speaking of the publicist that must not be named. This is from a TIFF best and worst list. It came under the 'weird' category.
'Even Tom Hiddleston’s unflappable personal publicist, Luke Windsor, has his own rabid fan following, including Tumblr tribute sites and hashtags. Celebrity has come to this.'
I don't even want to know what this woman witnessed that led her to this knowledge.
>>524 Not long after I became interested in TH and was reading various and lots of stuff on Tumblr, I've seen a couple of blogs dedicated to LW. Some fans were saying that they even tried to get his autograph (SMH). He declined, though, so I give him props for that.
>>524 I wonder if he has fans because it's a sneaky way to get closer to TH, or people are just too stupid to know better. But of course fans started a fan account on fb I think for TH's security person/driver.
The Graham Norton show has changed a lot since the very early days - you still get the odd silly skit, and the odd embarassing website about one of the celeb guests, but not so much anymore, and generally on people's 2nd or 3rd appearance when they're running out of good stories.
I'm pretty sure with De Niro and Branagh on the couch they'll have more than enough to talk about. I expect some impressions will be trotted out, but dancing seems relatively unlikely - especially as he'll be promoting Crimson Peak.
If anything I feel as GN has become more of a celebrity in his own right, he talks too much. So less time for shenanigans of any kind. I am surprised they put 3 big hitters together on one show. Maybe they too want to see TH struck dumb with admiration!
And now back to JA (kind of). She is a piece of work, that one. Meanwhile the nw3 has just gone silent - hasn't shut down or deleted, just stopped posting. Weird. I'd have thought she wouldn't be able to keep quiet the last week.
>>530 I can't remember if we discussed this or not, but there was a Twitter user, vinividi with some numbers at the end, who was tweeting screenshots of nw3's blog posts to Luke Windsor and Tom. Nw3 said it didn't bother her but stopped posting shortly after vinividi started, so I assumed it at least scared her a little and maybe made her take a break from the blog. Also around the same time a couple of names got thrown out on Town Bike of who nw3 anon could be, and maybe nw3 quit posting because one of them was right.
>>531 I don't recall we did. The cessation was quite recent before TIFF as far as I can see. After the drama of shutdown 1 it is odd she has just stopped without deleting anything. Also this time around she was much more careful, not posting any actual gossip, just as far as I could see mutual abuse between fans!
Schedule for High Rise at San Sebastina Film Festival

Tom Hiddleston and Josie Rourke create Coriolanus audio commentary
https://www.thestage.co.uk/news/2015/tom-hiddleston-josie-rourke-create-coriolanus-audio-commentary/
>>533 No no I meant that the link showed that the bicycle can't let her JA conspiracy theories alone! Not you!
And that the bicycle was a piece of work.
Her aunt?!!! Curiouser and curiouser. I always thought that her profile was more akin to some of the CB commenters, a middle aged woman. with probably an admin job at a theatre that allowed her to say with some truth she was in that world. If she is worried about her aunt telling her off then she is more likely to be a 19 year old Tumblr girl like all the rest.
I have to say that I howled with laughter at the other anon comments! "If you're just here to get more compliments from your ass-kissing followers..."
I'm not sure why this is considered unusual - actors don't normally have any contact with the people doing the music on their movies, so he may not have ever met the guy before. With so many of his friends and castmates there it would have been weird if he had been getting pally with Clint Marshall.
>>539 TH and Mansell know each other and follow each other on twitter, Mansell's agent is JA and Mansell was RT things related to TH before BoraBora. That's what the bycycle's poster was hinting at.
I find so unusual that the SanSebastianFF would release to the public the time TH and the rest will arrive at their hotel today. Is the check-in part of the festival?
Yes, I'm quite a regular London theatre-goer and I have to say she hardly ever posted anything about theatre itself, or that made me think she was in theatre circles and knew what she was talking about. Her general commenting audience didn't seem to know very much about London theatre, so her vague statements were accepted at face vlaue.
She claimed not to know who Tom was before 2011, when he was quietly generating buzz within the theatre world long before that. It's quite a small community, so people tend to know each other - that seeemd odd. But then her whole attitude towards Tom is strange - she's not a fan of him, yet runs a blog off the back of his fame, which mainly talks to and about his fans. I can believe the 'not a fan' bit becausse she rarely displayed any interest in his actual work, she seemed more interested in stirring up drama and petty arguments among fans.
So we assume he knows the guy, at least slightly. They might just be acquaintances, though - following someone on Twitter does not mean much, Tom follows a lot of people he works with on Twitter and some random people he doesn't know (like most of us do).
My theory is that he uses Twitter to DM some people rather than give out his phone number, which until recently meant you had to be following each other.
Even if they're really good friends, not being incredibly pally with him when he's actually working is not exactly strange. Co-stars are expected to publicly interact with each other at these events, and to some extent are performing for the cameras when they do so. Or he even could have had a long and enthusiastic conversation with him before the event that just didn't get photographed.
People really do over-interpret photographs and Twittervto fit their conspiracy theories.
>>544 For example the makeup lady on ISTL - I guess on the basis that if they are in the industry they won't be too mad. Even if he doesn't as far as we know interact with them again he doesn't tend to unfollow. Again not surprising as once you have a big list of stuff you're following going through and deleting is a hassle. I agree - I don't read anything into him having followed CM.
Following and unfollowing JA within a few hours of the Wimbledon debacle - rather different!
>>543 My secret shame is that I had no idea who he was up to and including watching him in Coriolanus, despite going to the theatre a lot. I realised later that I had seen him in Ivanov and Othello - but hadn't watched Thor/Avengers etc as it wasn't my thing, and didn't bother with the Hollow Crown because I had fairly recently seen an amazing production at the RSC and I thought the telly version would just bug me. So I never really realised he had gone onto bigger things especially as he had been out of the theatre world for a long time since Ivanov. Then a friend said she had front row tickets for Coriolanus and I said "oh ok sounds nice. Who's that bloke?" She said later she thought I sounded most ungrateful!
Well, since it's always better to see for yourself, here's the High Rise q&a video that somehow I didn't post. Mansell is the one in green.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8W1BkIwyHk
Mansell is just in the intro in this video, he wasn't actually there for the q&a, although there is an extra chair. If the bycycle poster was basing their post on just this, meh.

>>548 It's not just meh! It could be JA masquerading as CM.
Think about it! TH knows professional make-up artists. What better way to hide his secret wife than by having her changed into CM with the use of prosthetics.
Sure they would have to removed and replied for every day of TIFF - time consuming.
Or, they would have to be left on for the whole week - very awkward sex.
But that's totally what's happening. Open your eyes, people.

This gif is from the VF interview. The moment comes right after he's confirmed that he sings all the songs himself.
He's such a proud little bubby.
So, neither ISTL in Special Presentation nor High Rise in Platform won at TIFF. Hardly surprising, especially for the first.
http://tiff.net/festivals/festival15/awards
Where are our check in photos though? TH with his washbag and Luke trying to score an upgrade. "Tom I know I am only your agent, and I know I look 12, but can I please have a room with a double bed this time? Please?"
>>551 have they airbrushed his laughter lines and forehead?
>>560 If you look at some of the other photos on his IG, I think it's safe to say that there is some photoshopping. Very rarely is there no tinkering at all with photos. But his is minimal.
Article from the Calgary Herald about ISTL
http://calgaryherald.com/entertainment/movies/i-saw-the-light-looks-at-the-grey-areas-of-hank-williams-life
An interesting quote from Marc Abraham about the TH/EO tabloid gossip stories:
"I teased Tom one day when someone was writing about it. I said ‘Dude, I would pay people to write that I was having an affair with Elizabeth Olsen’ He said ‘Yeah, but you ain’t me.’ But I was just trying to keep him light so he didn’t worry about it.”
Doesn't sound like Tom was too happy.
>>563 that TH wasn't too happy was clear at PPG, but I wonder, the first article about them was in May, so they talked about it at TIFF?
>>564 Either that or Tom called Marc Abraham and said "Hey man, stop calling in phony stories about my love life to Us Magazine."
>>566 Paparazzi Purse Gate? Purseface Paparazzi Gate? Something like that, I think.
>>566 sorry Anon, it's PGG maybe? haha
>>567 duh.
Both articles and the real crazy pap stuff has happened before TIFF so it doesn't surprise me if they talked. I can't imagine he spoke to Abrahams earlier.
Yeah it's the initial "one day when someone was writing about it" that I don't get. One day? This interview was probably given at TIFF or soon after that, Abraham wording makes it sound like this happened while they were filming.
I think he meant just general one day which could be either May article or July catastrophe.
In lack of photos from Spain...

Can anyone help me how to download the Coriolanus commentary? Supposedly on iTunes but not showing up on any search!
>>593 You have to download it through National Theatre's app, but from what I can tell on Twitter a lot of people are having trouble. I haven't tried it yet.
https://twitter. com/DonmarWarehouse/status/646965099996028928
>>593 I just downloaded the app, tried to purchase the program, and it's giving me a message that says "no purchase options available." Not sure if it's something to do with my location, but I can't get it. :(
I haven't downloaded or purchased, but apparently, you must have at least iOS 8 to download the app. Also, if you've previously downloaded the NT app, you may need to update that app before the Corio. purchase will show/download.
I've also heard that downloading on an iPad is more straightforward than a phone.
People in the UK and US have mentioned it on twitter, so I would think that it's available on both sides of the pond - and likely in all other countries.
Technology - eh.

I was one of the people complaining on Twitter about this! Yes, you need ios 8, I couldn't find a way to get hold of it without it. I was hoping that someone would manage to rip the commentary and make it available online, I can't find anyone who has done so yet. It's very frustrating because all the press made it sound like you just needed iTunes.

So GN has taped. Doesn't sound too bad. Fingers crossed that there's no
cringe-iness.
I'm worried about the 'mega fan girled' part.
>>601 In a recent Vanity Fair Espana article, he mentioned being in a war zone in Africa. I'm sure there will be some sort of UN campaign regarding this trip soon.
I don't want to sound cynical, but the timing is interesting: trip in March, but campaign comes out much later in the year...say, just around the time his movies premiere, award campaigns start...maybe it's the UN's timing, not his.
PS - I see you, Luke. I see you and your UN campaign default mode.
Lol .. but it is probably a mutually beneficial relationship: Hiddleston has movies to promote .. the UN have a S Sudanese emergency to raise funds for plus the release of yet another set of prettily sloganed "goals" that most likely will not be reached and just replaced by another lot in a few years.
He just tweeted about the UN Global Goals or whatever, so yeah... I sense a UNICEF blog coming up. In all fairness, S Sudan is a lot hairier than Guinea and the kids in really dire shape (they just had yet another emergency with displaced people a month ago).
Finally .. where on EARTH is Luke in those photos? It just doesn't seem right ..
urgh.. I also see that the photos are now on tumblr without any context, though I suspect that there are busloads of fangirls madly googling "Jonglei" :\
Luke just out-pr-red the UN..

UN and UNICEF are not the same thing - global goals I think is a UN initiative and the trip to Sudan was separate through UNICEF.
The latter organisation did mention the trip to S Sudan in March it seems, and when TH went to Guinea they didn't hold details of that trip back for 6 months IIRC. It would be a weird thing to do if they needed to fundraise straight away in March - and would they really let TH manipulate them and the news cycle to that extent? In fairness to TH the person who revealed more was the photographer who may have seen a retail opportunity for his pics because TH is in the news.
I should have said, I mean, I know they are from the same origin in the 40s but UNICEF works and publicises itself separately from the UN so support for one doesn't necessarily imply working with or supporting the other. I think Angelina Jolie is a UN special ambassador or something but not really involved in UNICEF.
>>611 Yep, they are 2 different things especially in the results they obtain. Besides, the UN video is a video with many celebrities, not just him, and like TH says in the VF interview he was invited, trips to war zones aren't organized to fit film promotion.
"Has the ‘Kong: Skull Island’ Plot Been Revealed?"
http://screencrush.com/kong-skull-island-plot-details-revealed/
>>614 That sounds shite. Group of adventurers arrive on island on one or or another flimsy pretext (who really cares what) and end up doing battle with - surprise! - creature that lives there which isn't at home to visitors, even if one of them is TH wearing hot Indiana Jones style explorer gear. Disappointingly generic in my view. Why does TH think this is a new and exciting treatment? Obviously he has read the script (or one of the many versions) but I wait to be convinced on the advisability of this project.
>>615 Maybe TH means it's great because of his character? Like when he kept saying the script for ISTL was great and Abraham was great but in reality script and direction were panned and what was great was his performance. Of course, Jurassic World was bland too and had great success, so let's hope the film is enjoyable and it doesn't bomb.
>>616 I did think of ISTL - another project suggesting his instincts aren't 100% strong. I think that whatever he says he may be guilty of chasing both Oscar and commercial success instead of doing what others say is the best way to achieve those things, namely choosing the best projects and letting critical and commercial success take care of itself.
>>611 The UN and UNICEF are - for all intents and purposes - the same organization. UNICEF's parent organization is the UN - the general assembly votes on and oversees UNICEF protocol and campaigns. It is part of the UN's common system. UNICEF does not work independently of the UN.
All international organizations that cross borders - except for the CIA and similar ones - must details the movements of their employees and operatives in an organizational circular.
These circulars are different from any promotional campaigns that may happen at the same time or later.
>>617 But as far as he was concerned, his instincts were right. The role was challenging but he did great and received great reviews from important critics, all in all it was a win for him, even if the film is a fiasco. HR didn't do so great either with critics that count, but here too it's on the director.
To me what looks iffy about Skull is the director, the number of script-writers they changed so far and the fact that Universal didn't stick with the project.
They are also equally alike in that both use celebrities to promote their policies. And celebrities use BOTH to promote themselves.
The UN general assembly is rather infamous for inviting celebrities to speak before it. Leo DiCaprio spoke about climate control at the UN...before getting on a private jet to fly off on holiday. TRUE. George Clooney had been angling for a full assembly speech for the longest time, but only got a security counsel speaking gig - and then resigned from his 'peacekeeper' position. He said it was because he no longer had time - he'd never spent much time on it, anyway. Likely, it had everything to do with the UN not giving him a more high-profile part in UN PR.
The UN and UNICEF use and are used for PR.
Jolie is probably one of the few UN/UNICEF celebs whose role is completely PR-less - and I say that not being her biggest fan - at all. The number of trips she undertakes is 10x that of other ambassadors. And many of her trips are not reported - except in UN circulars.
As for results, both are similar as well. For the time, effort and money poured into the UN and UNICEF - their results amount to nearly jack all.
But then an organization with that many member states and such a large mandate - it's not going to be able to accomplish a 10th of its programs.
But NATO - raise your hand if you work for NATO (raises hand) - there's an organization that gets shizza done!!
>>614 We can disagree on UN/UNICEF policy and TH's PR - but we can all gather around the fire over this one.
Shite. And double shite.
Was he high when he read this script that it makes his fizz with excitement and it blew him away with its unique vision? Unique?!? I want to trust you TH, but you're making it so hard.
Is Luke vetting these scripts?
>>621 About Dicaprio you forgot the renting of a yacht to go back and forth for the world champion of football in Brazil. But let's save the seas, sure.
Anyway, I think what Anon meant was that while UNICEF is part of the UN, and while I'm sure UNICEF from some countries make use of celebs for PR, UNICEF does practical work on the ground that actually achieves something, while the UN have Shakira concerts and useless meetings on how to better ignore international crisis.
In that VF Spain interview he also say he will soon talk about this trip to South Sudan (unless my scarce Spanish failed me)
>>625 Not ironic AT ALL - she screams. We get shit done at NATO!! Keeping the Ruskies from the gates for over 60 years - thank you very much.
In all seriousness, NATO has disaster relief missions, logistical support missions in non-member states and crisis management missions...just like the UN.
What we don't have is celebrities taking professional photogs to the war zones.
And I honestly don't have celeb-envy...not that much!!
I think you're right regarding his instincts regarding the overall challenge of the ISTL role and the stretch it would give to his talents.
However, he read the script - which has taken a pasting by critics - and still said yes. Actors do that - they say yes to crappy scripts thinking their AWESOME performances will make it better. But that's not how it works. OLLA anyone - that script - did it even have a script?
Which is why I'm side-eyeing the hell out of that Kong script. Which has had more re-writes than my grad school thesis.
>>624 I have such distaste for LdC. From his desperate Oscar bait-ness to his insistence on using the Victoria's Secret universe as a mail order catalogue for girlfriends - younger and younger, blonder and blonder girlfriends.
TH ain't perfect - Lord knows - but he's a million miles away from LdC.
>>627 As someone who lives in a country that is member of NATO, that's the side I respect.
I am aware that there is a relationship of mutual back scratching without which most charities would get much less support from celebs. I still find it implausible however that he could fly to S Sudan in March and insist that this was not publicised until it coincided with his publicity for ISTL etc. If the UN wouldn't give Clooney the speaking gig he wanted then it isn't a total pushover is it? Clooney is a bigger star and for several years donated his Nespresso fees to monitoring the human rights situation in Sudan. TH has no profile like that to speak of and is nowhere near as big a star. I imagine it has something to do with the I agree totally pointless and narcissistic global goals - which can't possibly have been engineered by Luke to coincide with this month as they involve so many people. Also fundamentally Luke is a shit publicist. Does he really have the wit to do this? And even if he did does TH really strike one as such a calculating and conniving arsehole that he would say "yeah I'll go to Sudan but only if you release a licky press release just when I am pushing for an Oscaaaaar." I don't believe that of him - yet.
>>631 That is exactly the sort of agreements that are made with these partnerships. LdC made his speech in late September of 2013. It coincided with the start of his award campaign for TWOWS and DjUc. He joined IG on the same day. It was covered by broad and tabloid sheets. The Wall Street Journal was one of several big outlets that made mention of the opportune timing.
As I understand it, Clooney was refused a full assembly speech because he wouldn't commit to more trips on behalf of his position. Yes, there were negotiations to that backscratching program. And his 'spy program,' which was funded by most of his proceeds from his coffee commercials, was separate from the UN. Yep, GC ran a spy program - it really was just a single satellite that kept track of a man accused of crimes against humanity - like most of GC's movies.
eh .. UN anon here... to clarify: UNICEF (like the WFP, UNHCR and a whle lot of agencies) are, at the end of the day, entities / part of the UN.
I think that we need some sort of forum like the UN but I think years of working, have led me to be a tiny bit cynical about the trumpet blowing that all of the agencies do. UNICEF is actually one of the more productive UN agencies on the ground tbh.
To the best of my knowledge, no agency/organization is obliged to publically announce visits or anything of that nature .. UN / UNICEF probably have their own rules. I can assure you that many times, the organisation I worked with did cross borders and the only people who might have been aware, were the bosses in the HQ.
That set aside... back to Mr Hiddleston. :) I can only guess that they / he are waiting for an opportunity to raise the profile of the country with his visit. Perhaps it was better in terms of security, that he wasn't blogging everything he saw there. Perhaps he was a bit upset by what he saw there.. who knows... perhaps the S Sudanese kids were just really glad to have a visit from Loki. If they had electricity... and a telly. It just seems rather funny that the details of his visit were actually out there for 6 months before anyone got wind of it in the fandom :)
I am really not sure what to make of the script .. I can only guess that as a working actor who still has to audition for parts, he is happy to accept what he can get (which is fair enough) and / or he is really keen to break out of a stereotype English uptight character. Whatever the case, I would be confident that he will bring the same class, professionalism and enthusiasm that he has shown for his other projects so far.. fingers, toes and nose crossed..
>>631 The thing with Luke is that he seems to have only two default modes for publicity: society and humanitarian.
With people like Douglas Booth and Gemma Chan, it's been society - those two will show up to the opening of an envelope. Parties and catwalks - they'll be there. And their pics will end up in the DM.
With his higher profile clients, it's humanitarian. UN for EW and UNICEF for TH. That doesn't mean that they don't care for their respective campaigns. I think TH does - anyone willing to eat - not really live - on a quid a day, has commitment to a cause.
But, as you say, there's a strong mutual relationship between these charities and their respective supporters. So, It could very well be the case that Luke/TH and UNICEF decided that now would be the best time - for both of them - to talk about this trip. Otherwise, why not give it full mention - not a blurb in a circular - in the month it happened?
>>634 But he's pretty much finished with the press junket as he is about to vanish into filming ShitMovie, and he mentioned it once, and not directly. He has hardly been saving it up so he can yap about it during the last month.
I dont thinkt that they have talked about anything to do with the trip ... from the sounds of it, Couch Potato found the photographs online by accident. The mention in the internal UNiCEF circular had the depth of a page 6 byline.
As a 'high profile" supporter, this was a very low profile visit...
And I very much would like to hope that Tom isn't in the "find me an NGO" crowd and that he genuinely has an interest in the work that UNICEF are doing outside of the favourable aura cast on his "brand" as a result. I may be a bit naive however..
Hello, UN anon!
I know that NATO is required as an international organization to note 'publicly' - newsletter and circular - the major/key movements of its employees. That includes troop movements, although those can be VAGUE - like 'western hemisphere' vague if security is a concern. If a member state doesn't wish for its troops' locations to be mentioned, NATO will bend to those requests. I'm sure you're correct that the UN has its own rules.
The UN is well-meaning, but just needs to rein it in. 'Let's end global poverty!' What? How? It's the equivalent of saying, 'Let's turn copper into gold, or air into gold!' Small steps, UN, small steps.
Knowing that NATO employees are so well-versed in celebrity gossip and have so much free time on their hands certainly makes me believe in bright future of this organization!
I'm obviously not on the diplomatic scale! I work for the organization - but not even in Brussels (more's the pity! - I love me some waffles and moules et frites!).
I get my weekends, and have only travelled twice for business in the past year.
And I know plenty of UN-related gossip. Whenever the UN launches one of their high-profile campaigns, we gather in the office and mock them: 'Leo's man-bun ends acid rain,' or 'Hermione says it's okay to cry.' On Monday it will be Beyonce's leotard ends poverty.
>>639 Yes we are.
NATOAnon, UNAnon - it's horribly reminiscent of nw3anon, save only that her friends were laughably low powered by comparison (coffeeanon etc).
I think that this needs it's own thread :) .... I think that I am cynical wrt the yet another bleedin' slogan side of UNICE/UN and the fact that often, there is so much pressure for someone.. anyone to reach these goals that the details are sometimes fudged.
Does this make me neutral? ;)
And ehh... lets give the guy a chance to be in the movie before designating it to the shite pile. I guess he's really really pushing to break it in the US outside of the Avenger franchise.
I have high hopes for Crimson Peak!
(and I go back to being truly anonymous) :)
>>642 Don't mind me. I have an ironic turn of phrase, sharpened by the fact that I have been working this weekend. We can call it PossiblyShitMovie to keep our options open!
Hey, CouchPotato (the blue and original one) didn't find that by accident, but on Torrilla! That's very high profile! ;)
ShitMovie, lol poor Kong
We'll all eat crow when he wins an Oscar for Kong:Shit Movie - official title.
He's done some really serious, artsy-artsy stuff, I guess he's allowed to wear a fedora, carry a whip and fight a big monkey.
I'm saying it now - I intend to buy a FULL price ticket to 'Kong: Shit Movie' AND 'Godzilla vs Kong: Shit Movie II.' This is my promise.

>>645 I stand by my prediction. A thousand (!!) or more posts ago before Pursegategate I said I had a bad feeling about ISTL being a well meaning pile of poo and to judge by the reviews I was not wrong.
Yes, but what ISTL is missing is a giant CGI monkey!!
Once Godzilla vs Kong: Possibly Shit Movie II rolls around, the recipe will be perfected; it will have everything: TH, giant monkey, giant lizard, EO, MA to write the script and direct and produce!
They'll likely just cancel the Oscars and give them all to GvK:PSMII. Best actor: TH, Best Actress: Godzilla, BSActor: Kong, BSActress: EO.
How about Kong: Ape Shit? Or Shit Island?
In really important news - NATO, UN, world poverty, pfffft - the release dates for HR are worryingly far away. Important news - read: nearly nude sunbathing scene.
Besides for FFs, France is listed at 2016, Germany as September...2016, on IMDB. I've seen March 2016 for the UK - but unconfirmed. Nothing, of course, for the US.
>>649 I love the pun, but somehow Shit Island wins it for me.
Couch - or as you'll always be to some of us - Coach Potato, don't worry, I didn't think that rather sassy post re:NATO >>638 was from you!
I'm going to assume it was Ban Ki-moon. He tends to scour the internet looking for people badmouthing the UN and TH. Like all South Koreans, he too fell in love with TH's rendition of Man in the Mirror!
>>638 I see you, Ban Ki-moon. You're not fooling anyone.
Okay, I downloaded the NT Corio. commentary. The app itself has some interesting BTS photos (most already seen) and some short essays about various aspects of the play. There are also a few video interviews - many already seen too.
I'm going to listen to the commentary. I'll let you guys know what I think tmr.
PS - I downloaded it on my iPad (4) first, but it passed to my iphone (5s) and works there as well.

Some nice pics from ISTL. The white ensemble is fairly atrocious!

Corio. Audio Commentary:
It was good - not great. I think HF and PDJ stole the show as far as commentary went - they had plenty of funny and insightful moments. TH and DF were alright, but - say it with me - nothing to write home about. JR has got it going on! She's bright, thoughtful, funny and confident.
There were a lot of silent stretches in the commentary. Most commentary I've listened to has a running dialogue. This one certainly had a lot of quiet time to listen to/watch the play. More BTS info and discussion would have been welcome.
TH has some insightful comments. And he mentions his hips being in a harness - a very cheap thrill, but worth the download price!
Finally, when asked to translate 'anonna plebis,' he got it wrong. It's probably been a while since he's translated any Latin, so I'm more than willing to cut him some slack, especially since he's a hot piece.
If you must have all things TH or Coriolanus, download it. If not, you'll be fine passing this one up.
>>666 I know. My eyes, my eyes. Also the musical notes ensemble was a shocker. This involves much more suffering than losing shed loads of weight.
>>667 My husband has a PhD in ancient history, also from Cambridge, and has been learning Latin since he was 5. He is currently sitting at our kitchen table surrounded by Latin texts writing an article for a journal. He couldn't translate it either without some thought. What's that about?
And ah, Peter de Jersey. Saw him in Sejanus at the RSC some years ago now. He played Macro. He was terrific - and I met him in the pub afterwards and he was great - smart and funny and very cute! Happy days....
>>669 I have a BA in Classics - my MA is in Government with an emphasis on International Relations, however, I did graduate work in Classics when I could.
Annona is just one of those obscure Latin words that you don't run across a lot. It means 'share' or 'portion' - so that 'annona plebis' would be 'the share of the plebians.' It's referring to their grain share - or corn dole, as you Brits would call it.
TH got the genitive 'plebis' correct, but translated 'annona' as 'grain price.'
Like I said, I'm going to let it slide. He can mis-translate whenever he wants!
>>670 The only laugh-out-loud moment in the commentary - for me, at least - comes courtesy of him and JR. It's hilarious. He is a cutie.
That is interesting. My hubby translated it as "corn portion". I could see it was not a literal translation but it sounds as though he was bang on in terms of its actual meaning.

I agree, though I suspect it was heavily edited and that TH actually said a hell of a lot more than we heard.
I think they were worried about people watching the play for the first time with the commentary (hence trying to avoid plot spoilers), and spent a lot of time glossing the plot and the themes at a surface level - sort of like Cliff Notes - rather than getting into the interesting technical details or even funny anecdotes about the experience of the run.
I doubt anyone is going to listen to the commentary the first time they watch the play, it'll surely mainly be listened to by people who have seen it before or listened to in isolation after people have seen it for the first time. So I think they probably pitched it wrong. Still, it's an interesting innovation and I did like hearing the few backstage details we got, like the wire and the harness - both of which were completely invisible to me - and about how they adapted the text for the production.

>>702 She is this 19, or 20, french girl that was doing a year of stage in London and TH followed her on twitter (that's how she got fans attention), because she was friend with someone who work at the Donmar theatre or with an American journalist (I truly don't remember). Every time TH starts following someone she does too - she tweeted to HR's assistant costume designer after TH followed her, telling her that they should be friend. If TH gets involved in something, she starts tweeting about it too. When she was in London for her stage, she was always going to G&W, the nw3 woman had a internet argument with her.
I was just reading at the bycycle that she went to Paris for CP premiere and she was staying at the same hotel as TH&co and as a result Olly now follows her on twitter - no idea how they know it was the same hotel. So I was expecting a twitter/tumblr mob against her (it happened before). Look in the 2nd or 1st thread there was more as well as her name.
>>709 She's on the nuttier end of the fandom but fairly harmless. I think she hopes that if she bumps into him enough he might one day accidentally fall on top of her. She was hated with a passion by nw3 and her little coterie of flaming torch carriers.
>>710 yeah, I agree. But it probably wasn't wise, your PA following her as well, you know how the bycycle loves to claim the beanup story was true and that TH sleeps with his fans.

>>731>>733 And that's probably the only reason I wasn't advertising!! It didn't exist.
I remember wearing a Metallica t-shirt because the guy I liked was in love with the band. I wore that t-shirt once a week for half a school year! Cringe. My punishment for not being true to myself was that he then invited me out to a Metallica concert...and I had to sit through a Metallica concert! My ears still haven't recovered.
Now, social media is the Metallica t-shirt of this generation.
>>731 That first submission - where the poster says she has a forehead bigger than TH - oh god, how?
It made me think of the SNL character:
So, she may be trying hard, but I don't think TH would sniff around a 20 year old. And if diversity attraction is a real thing, then he's not looking for someone with a five-head to match his.
I stayed at the Plaza Athenee in NYC for a weekend (my banker ex-boyfriend paid for it as a birthday gift - I couldn't have afforded to breathe the air in that place!).
I don't know if the one in Paris is connected to the NYC one, however, if she did stay there, she's keen and well-heeled...my Metallica shirt only cost me 20 bucks!
>>745 I also suspect he wasn't 15 years older than you ;)
But really nobody with 2 brain cells would think along those lines, as I said it was about the opportunity of his PA also following her, exclusively because I knew how that would look like and how it could easily degenerate and potentially become another beanup-like story.

"Marvel Studios has found its director for the third Thor film, and it’s a bit of an unlikely choice. Per The Wrap, Flight of the Conchords director Taika Waititi is in negotiations to take the helm of Thor: Ragnarok."
>>751 Well I watched it. Old wine in new bottles I felt. The Owen Wilson impression. Heat (scene between RDN and Al Pacino). The Campaign for Moah Male Nudity in CP. TH had the grace to go a little pink at doing his impression of RDN in front of RDN. RDN was pretty monosyllabic, but good natured, gracious and slightly bewildered at having him and KB fangirling all over him. AH gave good value and came across as pretty norma. Overall as far as TH was concerned it was a superficial "greatest interview hits".
The funniest part by far was Graham Norton's impression of Ian McKellen using a self-service checkout in Waitrose (British supermarket).
There was a bonus clip of shirtless Ken from Frankenstein. God, he looked buff. Rawr. His current beard is a bit too much Captain Birdseye for me though.
>>753 and a little more than pink when asked about his fans. I read they cut the bit where he was singing as Hank. But yes, it was a harmless funny interview.
>>754 They must have cut a Hank impression - I watched it on bbc I-player as broadcast and it wasn't included in the show.
When TH says "it's an expression of admiration, just to be clear" did his accent become more posh all of a sudden? Especially on the clear?
>>752 (shrugs shoulders) Okay then. This sounds like a good idea. Does he need an action, ensemble background to direct? Apparently not.
What could go wrong when a comedy direction with a few low budget indie films under his belt directs a big budget, big action blockbuster?
Let's watch and see.
>>745 he was a senior and I a lowly freshman...so I stretched to 3 years. Scandal.
>>753 what would you give it on the cringe-meter? One being, I can watch this. And ten being, put it in the vault and don't look back.
>>757 So far the most harm with the Thor franchise came more from Perlmutter&co than the directors, he can't do worse than that.
>>759 To me it was funny, nothing new but funny all the same. The cringe was AH's impression, but not because of AH, it just wasn't good at all.

I can't decide if this is rehash from old interviews like I thought, or it's recent.
I can't believe he would actually say in an interview, right now, "Oh look, I live near very famous people and I'm so exotic" not counting the rest.
>>762 I don't want HELLO to do a half hour with TH, I want the full blown, through the peephole version of a HELLO interview. I want TH 'relaxing on his spacious bespoke leather settee.' I want him 'hiding away from the world in his luxurious footed bath, complete with bubbles.' I want him 'cooking organic quinoa and free range eggs in his modern kitchen.' Come on, HELLO.
>>760 How so? Marvel's frugality, script direction, comics v. movies, grand plan for all the franchises and tie-ins?
>>764 isn't that why Disney recently gave Feige sole control over Marvel's future films?
>>762 No I think you're right, I'm almost positive it was put together from previous interviews.
The HELLO article seems new to me. He mentions MA in one answer, saying that he said something to him 'the other day.'
Also, the War Horse London premiere (Jan. 2012) is referenced as 'a few years back.'
I think it seems old because TH recycles answers - like most actors who give interviews 50, 100, 200 odd times a year.
His clothes aren't new and his answers aren't either.

http://thetownbycycle.tumblr.com/post/130429998072/theo-ma#notes
The bicycle woman tries hard to prove Elizabeth and Tom lied about not dating each other. I'm totally lost in her theories, and have no idea what they are trying to say there. Why is she so invested in that?
>>770 I didn't know whether to mention this, so glad you did. I think that she/he scored a little "coup" with the sneaky pic of the two in his neighbourhood (more so after it was leaked to a local rag of a paper). The crowing went on for awhile as her site had the "exclusive" or whatever.
I guess that it is a tad humiliating to be proven incorrect, hence the persistent fixation on proving that THEO are a thing... anyway, good luck to her. I think that at this stage (with both categorically denying anything), she is clutching at straws.
I stumbled upon the TBC when I first got into the fandom. I read it for a while, then drifted away. I also found the teatime blog and read it for awhile before stopping.
I stopped reading both for the same reason - their MO is to post any and all submissions and then add their - usually baseless and uneducated - opinions. They both do it. The blogger on TBC posts everything - the out-there theories tend to come from submissions - and then she'll agree or disagree. It's all wild hypothesis and pure opinion. I like speculation as much as the next, but it's only speculation - real grain of salt stuff.
Also, I sometimes think that some of these blogs like to shock-jock along to get/keep followers and readers. She's probably not invested in TH (I noticed that her header now has every male star under the sun!), but in her number of followers and hits. I'm sure those can be a real drug for the right kind of person.
Now for bed, it's been a LONG week.
>>771 well they try to prove that they are dating because of Hello article. And I noticed one poster says even something like " Tom confirmed he is dating Olsen in hello article, why did she denied it?!" I laughed hard at that because Toby readers are sometimes ... not the cleverest people with lack of understanding what they read, but that's how the rumor mill starts.
I bet poor Brie is next. They already started it.
Nah. I say: four way love quadrant - Tom, Brie, Luke and King Kong .. aka "The love that dares not speak its name".
Imagine the headlines! Imagine the red carpet!
Anyway .. onto the LIFF!
>>771 Yes this.
The Bycycle began life as a blog called antisusie devoted to writing pernicious and libellous stuff about his then girlfriend Susanna Fielding. It had distinct hints of the more mad stuff one sees about EO (calling her bitch, whore etc).
Then the writer abandoned that blog and moved to its current location in ?2013 about the time he was seen at Wimbledon with JA. No particular party line on her though TBC did have a "source" called "nw3anon" and debate has subsequently raged about whether this source and the later blogger were the same.
At that time (late 13 early 14) TBC had one or two "dishes" from anons that sounded pretty well informed - and at least one utterly inprobable line that had in turn been fed to the anon supplying it by someone who was emailing her pretending to be TH. In general the party line was that TH was a recreational class A drug user and sex fiend with a serious commitment problem and a devotion to porn. The stated object of the blog at that time was to debunk the Disney prince image (why, who knows).
She developed a side line in publishing and debunking the madder Cumberbatch allegations about how there was no baby and it was all a sham, when TH went dark in late 2014 and there was nothing else to talk about. Also at about this time nw3anon blog started and took some of her followers so she started calling them all nannies and invested (and God how I hate the use of this word outside the context of financial instruments). She carried this line (you are all crazy nannies not to believe) over into the EO story without really missing a beat - current "thoughts" are exacerbated by the fact that the pic was her scoop and greatly exacerbated by her calling everyone who didn't believe nannies for the last 3 months.
>>771 PS I love the definition of The Daily Mail as a "local rag of a paper". It's a national newspaper with a giant circulation! It is a rag I agree....
Americans seem to have a hard time getting their heads round this. The New Yorker, despite all its fact checkers, still persists in calling The Times "The London Times" which is neither its name nor an accurate description of its circulation.
>>768 my problem is that the whole article is in contradiction
"the other day with MA" means TIFF, but at TIFF they denied dating so why would Hello say he doesn't want to talk about it? And is a teenage mag as Hello even going to be at TIFF?
Then there's TH saying all his family lives in London, but all his family does NOT live in London, except for his little sister.
This is why it sounds a bit fake to me.
>>770 she doesn't like to be wrong. Her stance on things is the one that is most annoying to fans, and she changes it accordingly. If tomorrow we were all going to say yes he is dating EO we are so happy, she'll be hell bent to prove they are not. She did the same with JA or Sian or SF.
(with no intention of reopening the matter because ot me is closed, but since it was mentioned, EO is in Paris for fashion week ;) http://www.gettyimages.it/detail/fotografie-di-cronaca/actress-elizabeth-olsen-attends-the-christian-fotografie-di-cronaca/491001916 )

>>781 I know I know, when I said mentioned I was referring to the bycycle's post, sorry for not being clear.

http://weibo.com/2150852464/CDxVNrBTH
great photos
I think it's a cut-and-shut job - they've mixed together some quotes from TIFF interviews with some older interview quotes to make it sound like they actually talked to him. It's quite common for these kind of magazines and websites to essentially cut-and-paste from other sources, as long as all the quotes are genuine and they make up some copy around it they can get away with it.
It's also one of the reasons why magazines that genuinely get interviews tend to shoot some video for their website at the same time, and why reputable websites point out when the were involved in a round-table interview - it makes it clear that they were genuinely there and not just copying from other sources, since the actor is likely to be saying much the same things in every interview.
What's left of the calendar. Though I suppose he might attend CP's premiere in LA before Kong.
BFI London Film Festival: HR Oct. 9
NBCS The Today Show: CP Oct. 14
>>777 yes you are right. The trouble is that the people who read Toby don't bother to check his interviews, they take her as the only source of news. I personally recognize the quotes from Elle interview and others as well. But now they say "they change the replies! THEO is still on! What 're they trying to do!" I'm just amazed that they can't accept the fact that sometimes tomato is a tomato and nothing more, and there is no conspiracy theory.
>>773 Nah - he'll do what he always does: fall in love with his director. The Kong director has already made him vibrate with excitement.
I don't know for certain, but I think TNY probably calls yours Times 'The London Times' so not to confuse it with The New York Times, which they often refer to as The Times...because, you know, NYC is THE most important city in the world, so there's clearly only one 'The Times.'
And TNY shouldn't be legitimized by their fact checkers, but derided for the fact that now they only get a mention for their cartoons.
No one likes to be wrong, so that's certainly part of it. I also think that she may genuinely believe that they were/are together. Some people will take their denial at face value and move on. Some people will continue to wonder, and some will just flat out not believe them. People, like the TBC blogger will continue to fight their side no matter what - that's human nature. Some people believe that TH is gay, and even though he's said he isn't, and others have as well, they still refuse to think otherwise.
>>786 The real surprise would have been if they had noticed that it was old quotes mixed with some fake ones.
Of course chances are some noticed but went along with it for the "fun" of annoying his fans, the bycycle woman isn't the only one playing that game.
>>789 Genuine and the bycycle blog shouldn't exists int he same sentence :) It could also be a case of "we'll make this true but constantly repeating it is". It's what some fans were doing with JA, but in that case she decided against it. It's like when she insists TH and SF broke up in nov. 2011, it's not true, but everyone goes along with it.
>>776 I think the DM is rag-ish, but it has its own unique qualities. And while I'm American, I have some insight. I used to live in London during the early 2000s. I lived in Edgware and worked near Whitehall. Every morning I would pick up the DM, The Sun and the Guardian and read/skim them on the tube. The British suits in the office thought is was an amusing mix of news sources - didn't stop them from catching a free peek at Page 3.
I got just as much 'news' from the tabloids as the broadsheet. The DM and Sun have real news - it's presented with their own leanings, like all papers, but it's news. They just happen to have a generous helping of Big Brother/reality star articles, WAG and royal coverage, and 'leggy display' rubbish as well.
>>791 Ohh, I totally forgot that some people still think JA is 'around.'
See, people will stick to opinion even in the face of a lot of evidence!
>>792 It's widely read - internationally as well now it has such a successful website. The reason I call it a rag is because it purports to report news but is frequently factually inaccurate, in a manner which leads me to think it is deliberate. There's about as much commitment to accuracy in the "news" as there is is in the celebrity stories, but it hides under this cloak of respectability which makes its inaccuracy (in my view) more pernicious because harder to spot.
Also it supported the British Fascist party during the 30s and remains covertly and at times almost overtly anti-Semitic in its editorial line.
>>788 Call it the UK Times then - but I think it is more that there is just no notion of a national newspaper in the U.S. Hardly surprising given the logistics of printing and delivering one paper throughout the country. Whereas the UK is so small that we can all stand together and read one copy of a broadsheet.
>>794 Oh, it is definitely anti-ferener (foreigner). And their current coverage of the refugee/immigration crisis does echo the general anti-Semitic talk of the paper in the 1930s. Strangely, it tends toward the pro-Israeli side on international issues.
If you're talking in general/specifically about the Miliband article - unfair on all grounds, in my opinion - I think that was a matter of the DM's anti-leftist sentiments rather than outright anti-Semitism. Their follow-up editorial, however, oh, yeah, that was anti-Semitic.
PS Psst, TH is totally anti-Semitic and racist, and a horn-dog and - whatever else. Pass it on!
>>794 I find the website so interesting! I often look at the US and UK tabs just to see how they are presenting stories to their different target audiences. Usually the tabs have different main stories. I've found that only royal stories tend to show up on both pages, but still the headlines will be different. There's A LOT of media analyst hours going into some of those decisions.
PS Psst. TH always read the DM and writes comments under the name of Lord HIddlesworth. Pass it on.
>>796 Weighing in ... The Daily Fail/Mail whatever is the flagship of the Murdoch press (together with the Sun).
Imagine Faux news on, printed on paper or online with a UK bent. Absolute tripe. The editorial team do not even bother to check for simple spelling errors before publishing (let alone factual accuracies). One example being the utter rubbish they printed about Tom's Oxford visit with EO (when the stalker photos were taken in London). Actually .. they published the bicycle's stalker photos - so - I take all things from that source with a mighty pillar of salt. The sentiments are: anti-Muslim anti-Polish (Pole being the most readily targeted pre-representatives of the scary "Europe". Pro UKIP / anti Europe and only marginally on the border of the stuff being sprouted by Radio Television Libre des Mille Collines (google it) imho.
The comments sections are a useful barometer of often the most ignorant sectors of the British population .. oh ..and the BC tea party brigade.
And one Lord Hiddleworth (the 2nd) ;)
The Mail isn't as Murdoch paper, its majority shareholder is Viscount Rothermere. It pretends to be high-brow compared to the Sun and the other tabloids, but their political views are quite similar - very right-wing (for the UK, which is not as right-wing generally as the US), conservative, and xenophobic.
Murdoch owns The Sun and The Times.
Hey, nothing is as bad as Fox News - nothing. ;) And the DM isn't inciting genocide - yet...fingers crossed!
Psst, TH votes UKIP...pass it on.
I don't go in for the whole 'oh, my ovaries' or 'he's trying to kill us' responses to his photos. But then I see photos like these and think, this bastard's trying to kill us. He is quite beautiful - American quite, not British quite!
>>801 We use "quite" in both senses ("somewhat" and "extraordinarily").

>>804 Tom apparently has no clue how old he is - he mentions he's 32 (this was filmed in 2013), but he says he was 14 when Much Ado was in theaters in 1993, and says he was a certain age in another year (I can't recall it off the top of my head) that would have required him being born in 1980 rather than 1981. He has admitted to being terrible at math so I suppose that's probably it, but do you think he could have been born earlier than 1981? Fibbing about one's age isn't exactly unheard of in Hollywood.
>>811 no because the year of his birth is also listed on the Peerage website as 1981. I just think it's a matter of memory even more than bad math. Like when he told that story about surprising his gf in Paris and missing an audition, and everyone thought it was because he got the station wrong.
>>810 who on earth would ever buy a red carpet?

Eh.. so here is my High Rise impression - the film is def out there - very challenging source material and very very very dark humour. It now has a distribution date in the UK but it will 110% not appeal to the average family /Marvel devouring public (or probably most of the public, to that effect).
Lots of Tom bonking and actually everyone bonking plus a (for me) extremely disturbing scene with Sienna Miller. Tom, Sienna and especially Elisabeth Moss were amazing - I didn't even recognise Elisabeth in the first scene she was in (her accent was very good). The analogy to A Clockwork Orange (the film) is accurate to some extent, though with the sex and violence turned up to 11. I was actually rather glad when it finally ended.
Others have reported on the Q&A: about 20 minutes with Ben Wheatley and the cast taking the stage. Questions asked were (wisely perhaps) chosen from twitter in advance and were relatively tame: "Where any real dogs damaged?" "Where the cast psychologically affected by what they were filming" (answer no to both). "Why did you choose to film inside Bangor Leisure Centre" (1970s building) and so on. Ben was the person who suggested that Tom do his Northern Irish accent (which he did) and bless .. he certainly seemed sure of himself on stage and was a tiny bit verbose , though his costars also had the chance to talk. Sienna Miller was actually rather funny and seemed less restrained on stage. Elisabeth Moss seemed very shy..
and on a snark-free note: Frenchie and friend were there as fans... they def don't deserve the abuse heaped on them last week (imho).
oh .. also: Luke Evans was in turns hilarious, disturbing and sported an extremely 70s moustache (in the film) - major respect. It was also somewhat strange to see audience members done up tot the nines sitting next to people in jeans and t-shirts :)

Tom Hiddleston to appear on The View on October 14th, 2015. Via @ABCNetwork

Many critics have given the film high praise! Mark Kermode tweeted that he's firmly in the LOVE camp.
I saw it last night, and as suspected some of the confused critics from TIFF mis-read it because they're astonishly dense about class (honestly, they keep describing Laing as a man who fits in with the upper floor residents and the lower floor residents - this is not true at all, he is kicked out of the penthouse party!) and expected a conventional story structure. The Snowpiercer comparisons are way, way off - it's nothing like Snowpiercer, which has a logical structure and premise. High Rise is not like that at all - it's a darkly funny satire. It's absolutely batshit crazy and doesn't attempt to be accessible or logical.
It's a dream-like experience - time is compressed into montages, we jump around from event to event and floor to floor, and people do things that are simply bizarre as if they're completely normal.
I loved it. Not everyone will, though.
>>869 I doubt the journalist of the Guardian being British is dense about class system. Critics at TIFF come froma variety of countries.
The main critic moved to this film is based on a book and the film fails to represents the book, the book isn't a funny satire, at all. That's why I was asking specifically about that.
I hadn't read the book before (and not sure that I am in the right frame of mind to read it now that I have seen the film), so I just saw the movie as a member of the non-Ballard reading class (though I did love "Crash" in it's own demented way).
The film is really really out of mainstream, so I think that the people to whom it appeals may not necessarily be the ones reviewing it. I thought that Tom and Luke's performances were outstanding (as well as Sienna Miller's) so on that note, I would recommend seeing it. Jeremy Irons was good though with his smock he reminded me of his "Dead Ringers" character.
The only performance that struck a slightly off note, was James Purefoy - he seems to specialise in nasty upper class characters and though he was essentially comic relief, I thought he was hamming it up a tiny bit at certain times (I could almost see him smirking).
I forgot to mention how cool Clint Mansell's score was and the wonderful, wonderful way he appropriated everyone's favourite 70s Swedish pop phenomenon (SOS is still in my head).
For Frenchy - innocuous as any other somewhat rabid fan. But that .. an excited fan. Even if she weren't (and I am NOT suggesting this) I personally don't support the vitriol directed against anyone Tom might be linked with as it is slut shaming of the worst kind.
Finally: I didn't want to mention this last night as the event was still on but the afterparty was held at .. The Royal British Institute of Architecture! I thought that was extremely clever ..
Is it JA with his sister?
https://twitter. com/bonniealba/status/652519732755759105?s=09
>>872 No, that woman's face in one of the photos on Torrilla and it's not Jane. I thought the same thing when I saw the ombré hair.
I thought it was. One on the left I think looks nothing like JA.
>>871 thanks I will watch the film and see for myself, my curiosity as I said is whether or not the film managed to portray the essence of Ballard's book.

>>880 Yeah, even though JA was there (http://iconosquare.com/viewer.php#/detail/1092224818217977843_374064), that's not her.
So Emma is the woman on the left? I wouldn't have recognized her. Anyway, it's great that his mum and sister were there.
>>882 I can't see the photo!
Yes I had no doubt she was, since Mansell was, but I somehow doubt it there was interaction, especially with Th's family around. I can't say if that it's his sister or not, she might be.
Woman from the back, now from the side, just to put it to rest.

She also say this
http://zhora -salome.tumblr.com/post/130882589021/i-wish-i-had-gotten-a-photo-of-that-lukeemma-hug
(this fandom is so small, if read this blog you recognize so many names, someone even from here)
"At the risk of sounding like a broken record: Tom does look better in person than on photos. He’s very tall, very slender (without being thin), has a really slim face (somehow I’m always struck by this fact), and his smile is just radiant. There were lots of autograph hounds where we were standing, and they all stuck their big glossy pictures in his face…and then there was me with my Coriolanus play text. When he saw that, he looked up at me, beamed like a lit christmas tree and said “Wow!” at which point my brain flatlined and all I could stammer was a thank you. Emma was there, and she and Luke greeted each other with the longest hug. It was so bloody sweet. Diana was also there, as were Olly and Faisal. There was another big hug for Luke when Tom arrived. And I mean a BIG hug. I loved seeing that. Luke looks really gorgeous himself, by the way. Tom was the last to arrive and things went a bit nuts when he got out of the car. There could be no doubt whatsoever who was the star of the evening. He wore his glasses during the Q&A, but you’ve already seen that of course. I filmed the whole thing, by the way, but I think it’s already up on You Tube anyway. LOL Sienna Miller is totally smitten with Tom. She was awfully touchy-feely during the Q&A, hanging onto Tom’s arm all the time. Tom wasn’t really responsive to this, which I found interesting. She was lovely, though. Funny, self-deprecating, obviously really happy to be a part of this. Ben was cheeky as always. There was applause as the end credits rolled. Oh yeah, and I loved the film."

>>889 Is there anyone from here on tumblr? I have wondered from time to time as sometimes we (mostly you!) find stuff before it appears there. Disclosure: I have a tumblr account but I don't post. Only have it because you can't use the app without one.
>>891 no I don't have tumblr, I just check a few twitter accounts, torrilla, CB and when I have time and patience (like last night) tumblr.
Mind, mine wasn't a critic to people posting on multiple places, I just realized that when we talk about fans writing and discussing TH, we are probably referring to the same small group of people.
"Sexy BOGO: Came to see Benedict, and Tom Hiddleston is two rows up from us!"

"Not only took pictures of Tom, also got his most growly face when I got caught! Oops..."
https://instagram.com/p/8rKO0NqXTV/
>>892 No I didn't mean to criticise either. I just hadn't spotted any crossover of names between here and there. Here and CB yes.
We have said before how small the active fandom is on here and elsewhere.
>>894 In CB too? I've never noticed, but then I never read usernames or comments much, just look for links :)
It was just one user here and on tumblr, but I truly didn't expect so many crossovers on different socialnetworks or boards, so much smaller than I thought.
I've got a tumblr account but I don't post.
Buff Tom at Hamlet:

Also, this is cute:
twitter(.)com/brielarson/status/652747784513277952
I'm on tumblr but I avoid anything to do with Tom on there now - there's too much mean-spirited drama and wild gossip in the Tom Hiddleston tag and on the fan blogs and it stresses me out. I check Twitter if something interesting seems to be going on, but mostly I just hang around here and Torrilla for my Hiddleston fix. :)
>>896 That is cute, and you can tell she is new to the medium. So I also feel like wishing her good luck, I have a feeling she'll need it.
>>897 Yes tumblr is stressful, my way is finding a blog where fans sends anon posts of sightings, although it implies skimming through plenty useless stuff. Right now it's the teatime blog.
>>897 There are a few nice blogs. From hiddles with love is one and there is also cheers Mr Hiddleston and enchanted by hiddles. These post nice photos, their own gifs/edits and infos without the drama. I have found you don't need to follow more than 2 or 3 sane ones to get what you need as there is a lot of reblogging. I also follow 2 that are irreverent and naughty but affectionate and make me laugh without crossing the line - tomismonochromaticallyfabulous (devoted to his unusually small wardrobe) and flappyhappyhiddles (devoted to his unusually large other attribute).
I miss Torrilla on tumblr. Thank heaven for weibo. And thank heaven for here. Our little boat has sailed close to the rocks of fandom once or twice in recent months but we sail merrily on. I like you guys. It's a nice place to hang out.

The role is up for grabs and for the first time in awhile, his name is being mentioned. The Night Manager is a hell of an audition tape..

>>901 are you commenting a news or it's a general comment? :) I hope he doesn't, it seems one of those franchise that can block your acting career even more than Marvel's films.
General comment after reading news:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/34448870/tom-hiddleston-is-enjoying-the-possibility-of-being-james-bond
I have a feeling that he would be gunning for it but it is a very limiting (and almost outdated) formulaic franchise.
>>904 I think Craig actually said the other day week to TimeOut London that he'd rather cut his veins then do another Bond film, and that if he had to it'd be only for money. That's why I don't think TH would go for it, too demanding in terms of time and too little in terms of acting.

The Today Show is live from NYC, but I think sometimes they will do a pre-recorded segment or a satellite interview. I believe the others are all taped ahead of time, but I'm not sure how far in advance - maybe a day or two, or the morning of. The View, Colbert, and Trevor Noah are all based in NYC so that's where he'll be this week.
There's a Crimson Peak event happening too with GDT and the cast... odd that Jessica Chastain is being billed as the top celeb guest.

>>911 that's why we need better journalist for these press tours, someone that could ask "didn't you say you believed in ghosts?".
Thanks, that's a lot to pre-record, I hope they'll be good interviews. Maybe because Jessica is more popular in the US?

What the journalist was referring to in this video >>888
"Across the street and down an alley, Tom Hiddleston was a true British gentleman at F-Stop. When I arrived at the party, he was dutifully standing in the rain on the steps, making sure the gaggle of photographers outside didn't go home hungry. This on a night where many an A-lister skipped film and party red carpets, possibly due to the weather. Inside the bash, Hiddleston was immediately surrounded by a flock of women who migrated with his every move. Impressively, the high-cheekboned heartthrob took photos and the time to talk with just about everyone. One proud mother encouragingly screamed "whooo!" and "you go girls!' at her daughters as they posed with the actor. How embarrassing, mom!
Around the corner, Hiddleston's rumoured love interest and costar appeared at the second after party for their film, I Saw the Light, at The Addisons Residence. Yes, sometimes films have not one, but two or more after parties. Unlike her other half, Olsen was not in the mood to make nice with party guests, instead keeping to herself in a booth."
>>914 that seems like an old thing, I mean the interview. EO is still mentioned as a half of TH. Don't tell me it started all over again.
>>915 It is old, the article it's from TIFF - When Anonsy mentioned the video this morning I watched it again and then I saw this article and thought the journalist in that video probably witnessed the "flock of women", hence her comment.
>>916 ah I see now. Sorry, lack of sleep made me see only last paragraph and I nearly choked thinking they started it all over again.
>>917 it happens :) (I just copy&paste in a hurry so I forgot to cut it out, I have to remember there's a preview post button I can use)

From what I sort of read of the reviews, the ones that gave a good ranking did so mainly for the visual.
No wonder Universal didn't want to pay for budget, this might actually bomb at the box office.
And I thought this film was the safest one.
So it might be that TH statement about Loki and Marvel have to do with the fact that Loki won't be such a presence in Thor3
http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2015/10/13/thor-ragnarok-has-marvels-darkest-script-yet
>>926 They could be rather mean and have Loki as Odin/ Anthony Hopkins for 90% of the film. I don't buy that Marvel didn't call him for 2 years story since as many have noted, he was filming the extra scenes back in January.
>>927 I hadn't think of that! But it wouldn't be mean, just logical, a king can hardly spend all his time in isolation.

Kermode and Mayo's Film Review with Tom Hiddleston
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06gpy5r
“It’s not set in the ’30s,” said Hiddleston at Wednesday’s premiere of “Crimson Peak.” “There’s no movie director with a map. There’s no out-of-work actress down on her luck. All of that stuff is respected, we’re just trying to do something new with the myth because Kong is an icon of movies. I think he’s someone people want to see again.”
"Hiddleston didn’t spill about whether or not the film would unfold in the 1970s as some news outlets have reported, but he did say he was flying to the set on Sunday to begin shooting."

'The love story between Thomas and Edith is contrived; a multi-second shot of Hiddleston’s ass flexing as he’s inside Wasikowska duringtheir first consummation helps salvage some of this.'
'The closing fight scenes are ridiculous, but the final scene introduces new levels of special effects that were so laughable I wasn’t sure I was in a movie theater anymore, so much as one of my usual erotic fever dreams about Hiddleston.'

>>956 Hilarious! I've seen the sex scene on tumblr and:
(a) it reveals precious little beyond what we saw on the trailer. It is BY NO MEANS a Fassbender-esque blow for equal nudity.
(b) it attempts a little bump and grind but about 8 inches higher than it ought to be so it looks most unrealistic.
(c) he has this weird rumba like round and round and side to side motion going on.
(d) no pokey stick. Guillermo, we knew you were trolling us at ComicCon.
(e) it is very romantic with slushy music to help us understand that they lurve each other. Rather to my surprise the kinky predatory throwdown hinted at in the trailer is missing.
A Southern accent at the start, and talk of his hands at the end. Watch the gun show going on in his shirt as he lifts his hands!!
b) Is he trying to have sex with her belly button? Maybe TH IS a virgin like some of his fans think - I mean, if he's going to town on her navel.
c) You just know he's totally one of those 'round the world' types - as I call them. Hips every which way and then some. Not a bad thing, but sometimes unnecessary.
>>959 (b) No, I mean 8 inches of height between him and her so he is obviously thrusting into thin air.
(c) I know this type. Also on this evidence arching the back a lot.
Should I post the link? I kind of assumed everyone had seen it....
>>960 Go ahead. People can click or not.
Personally, I'm staying away from Tumblr and twitter, they've probably gifed the whole movie by this point. I'm going to wait a week or so to hit this one in the theatre, so I'm going to try to stay away from specific spoilers.
Here it is. Not a spoiler unless you didn't know he gets most of his bum out in the movie, or feel you will enjoy him doing so the less for having previously been able to watch it repeatedly on a loop while waiting for it to come on general release!

I think this may be connected to the Nashville premiere of ISTL. Looks like both EO and TH will be in attendance.

A hot minute with TH. Does anyone like rhubarb? Ugh.
Weird, right? Uncomfortable, yes? This is the sort of thing to which he should be saying a quick No...if he had the ability to say No.
That's it for me - there's a sushi boat waiting for me - and a dark 'n' stormy or two.
Couch will pick up with her morning shift tomorrow! There'll be Colbert and this Nashville premiere thing (maybe there will be pics - who knows?).
Nighty-night.
>>948 thank you, I appreciate it. I'm possibly the only person who likes him and is happy he is going away for months, I'm never going to follow another press tour like this.
SPC must think us all idiots. Up until TIFF, when we all knew TH would start filming Kong from mid-October questions about an Oscar race were ok, after TIFF, they move the release date because of his schedule. Truth is SPC isn't willing to bet on TH's performance. But let's say it's schedule.
Does this mean that if TH gets a nomination for the Evening Standard Awards at the end of November he won't show up? ;)
Here another article

>>962 so all this talk about the sex scene being about her and this is the result? A sex scene out a man's mind? Not to mention incongruous with the story.
>>963 Are they promoting the Avengers in Nashville now? Because if this is for ISTL the guy is a bit confuse about the story lol
>>964 didn't he say once that his favourite season was Autumn? I think it was in a print interview in 2013.
>>965 the music makes it even worse.

Oh watch the AOL video first if you haven't, smell the breast LOL poor TH
if you need to watch the Huffington Post interview, I suggest the katch.me link, the quality is inferior but it's from a different camera.
>>972 Wasn't that great! He misspeaks so rarely, and then bam! The panel has been archived, and is at the bottom of the page.
The Late Show with Colbert
I can't watch it for geographic reasons, hoping in Torrilla
A more complete article on ISTL and its new release.

>>967 All of this. I feel like I have been given a bottle of champagne and a box of truffles and have gorged them all in one sitting. I need some time off!
And yes, ISTL - how stupid exactly do they think we are? They must have known his schedule for months and anyway, looks to me like he just fitted in the press tour before he started filming - except they then decided not to release ISTL.
>>969 So now we know - feminism means woman on top. Don't get me started. To me also her being clothed and him partially naked just felt silly, like those scenes in Sex and the City where Sarah Jessica Parker is in bed with her bra on.
>>974 I know! He was so embarrassed
>>978 not to mention a virgin young girl in Victorian times, who probably has never seen a penis, knowing perfectly well what to do with it and that there is an on top position. Such good instincts.
Poor TH also in the Huffington interview, the Hiddlestoner questions make him so uncomfortable - for good reason.
No it's for ISTL. TH and EO will be in Nashville today for a premiere of some sorts...as the film is now several months away from release.
Here's a follow up tweet.
https://twitter. com/BrandonDavisBD/status/655254040415195136
But she's so moderne this little feisty one! She writes with a typer-writer and thinks and wears glasses...she must know how to ride cowgirl style!
>>982 I know I was kidding :) - that lazy guy could have made the effort of finding a still from ISTL.
Kudos to EO for finally showing up to promote this film. I get it that festivals in US cities don't compare to Paris fashion week, but a little effort goes a long way.
I think this group needs to be official disbanded and banned - like the Japanese govt. does with certain religious cults.
I agree that - as a group - they do some very good things: the UNICEF fundraising was generous. But, I also think that it wasn't purely philanthropic. They seemed to have made a very big show of their fundraising: tweets, videos, special letters to UNICEF - all that was missing was the giant cheque. Self promotion should not be a part of true philanthropy. Methinks some attention seeking was in the off.
As it is, a majority of them now think of themselves as some sort of TH vanguard. If he's in an online poll - they send out the word to vote, vote, vote. SNL innocently asked who should host the show - every Hiddlestoner on twitter bombarded the account - for days. They tweet The Tonight Show and Jimmy Kimmel accounts, and the Ellen show as well - don't the producers of these shows know what their missing by not having TH as a guest?!?
At this point, they're addicts. They tweet to get him on shows so they can watch him on shows and then tweet/tumblr about the shows. They're chasing the dragon.
>>984 I wouldn't be surprised if Loki and the Scarlet Witch are brought up - as he seems to be a comic book guy.
A longer version of the Hot Minute interview. If you have a TH using foul language fetish - hold on until the end of the clip.
>>985 If there was any philanthropy it was just to hide their obsession. I think the reason why TH is mentioning UNICEF - as jokingly pointed out by Jessica in the Huffington video, before she realized how uncomfortable TH was with it - is to shift the focus from their obsessive behaviour.
All they do it's childish manipulation.
That woman at the Time Talk asking for a hug and saying "don't worry I have a husband" manipulated him, she asked something she knew she'd be refused so she added a semblance of normality.
The irony is that the more they behave like this, the more he gets asked, the more he gets annoyed at them.
>>976 This article is pathetic. Here are 4 million reasons to release it in March which we should have known about all along except that y'know, we are Sony Picture Classics so we've never released a movie before.
We all know it is being re-edited by a person who knows what storytelling is to try and make it the sum of its parts. Or that it is beyond hope and come March will actually be released with minimum fanfare and an after party in a youth hostel.
They're banging the right drums: we'll do it justice Oscar run-wise, we'll re-release in December, we'll give it a push.
The proof, however, will be in the pudding. Maybe, if it can be salvaged with a re-cutting, SPC will tick off the promises on that list.
I wonder who that black woman is that appears around Tom in NY. You can see her on Torilla photos.
What's really annoying about SPC, aside from treating us all as idiots, is that they are blaming TH's schedule, i.e. TH. for their bad choices. They are lucky he is a good person, other actors wouldn't have agreed to promote the film after something like this.
Nashville? NYC? Who knows. What I do know is RC works a denim jacket like no one else.

>>991 Going by what she was holding in her hands in some photos I'd say staff or a PR person to tell them where to go.
Am I the only one that finds Jessica's attitude toward TH is almost sisterly and not flirtatious? Never mind the fans that are totally convinced they hooked up during CP, some people are just hopeless, but it didn't seem to me she was making it look like there was something going on. Maybe it's because I saw her in another press tours and she is always friendly.
US rep. from some corner...Legendary, WM agency, HH...or his SECRET LUVER!!!
No, she looks like she's working.
>>993 probably Nashville because Rodney has a concert tomorrow in Tennessee
JC's default setting is F&F - fun and flirty. And she does it so well, I think that's one of the reasons she's so likable. She was just as F&F on The Martian press tour as on CP's.
You're right, she's not making it seem like a thing - others are.
Slightly unhinged fan on TH and ALL of his female co-stars: They were meant for each other. Oh, their babiezzz will be butiful!!
And now he has that blue serge shirt glued to his body along with the boots....
>>997 You'd have to have been severely beaten with the ugly stick to make unpretty babiezzz with TH.
>>998 the boots will fly to Hawaii! At some point the boots will write a diary or their adventures.
