also that movie took some time to get going and had a totally different cast at some point:

IDK why, but I irrationally dislike Joel Edgerton, so I am fine with him being recast.

[wastedaudio]

I rationally dislike Joel Edgerton bc he wrote and directed a movie where his character's revenge against his former bully was to rape and impregnate his wife and leave him wondering if his son is his or not.

[squirrels_oh_no]

Yeah, that helps solidify my decisions LOL. Also, he's just such a MEDIOCRE actor and writer and director. It's just baffling he got to where he is.

I don't know if it's worse, but we don't actually know if he did sexually assault her, he cut the camera before Jason Bateman's character could see anything - it was the revenge in that he'll never really know, even if the child is tested to be Jasons that she may still have been violated.

This would've been such a a downgrade. Wow.
