[D] Free space

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?


Navigate:

Hey! Do not post anything outside of these threads. It will be deleted.
Go be cute and fun and fun and funny over here.

I thought Russell Crowe was fine, but not exceptional. I really like that he captured how Javert is not a villain, but a misguided man with erroneous beliefs. However, I thought his performance was a tad too subtle to suit the character. Javert is meant to be extremely intense and driven, and his presence should have the power to command a room. I was missing that conviction and intensity in his performance, especially when it came to Stars or his suicide. My impression was that he was so focused on trying to sing it properly that he missed that piece in his actual acting.

TL;DR I had absolutely no problem with his singing and he was in fine voice for the role. He did a decent job overall, but I found myself wishing he was more intense and had a bit more conviction in his performance.

Pretty much all of this. He also sounded like he was singing through a yawn constantly, which was a bit distracting.
