Visionary Thinking

Whutup kids? Been a minute, but I've had a bunch of posts waiting in the just-follow-through-on-them wings, and this is me manning up.

Normally when I hit you kids with these Visionary Thinking posts, it's some obscure chick you've never heard of (usually Canadian), on some show you didn't know existed (also usually Canadian). Mostly, they're pretty to look at, sometimes talented and probably not ever going to be heard from again on American soil (unless they're Supergirl - whutup Laura?) Today, you get an obscure Canadian you might have heard of and I actually think is going to be quite famous. I give you:

Ellen Page

The 20-year-old Page (Keeper alert!) should be recognized by all of you us fanboys after playing Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat) in X3: The Last Stand. She's earned a bit of critical acclaim for an upcoming movie called "Juno," in which she plays a knocked up teen broad. Also, she was once in a film called "Mouth to Mouth," and I'd let her resuscitate me any day of the GD week.


And just in case you didn't think she was also awesome, she once revealed the following to Now Magazine:
"It's juicy, man!" she exclaims. "All these characters, they have balls!

"If I read something and it grabs me, I just wanna go for it."
She was talking about why she chooses certain roles, but I'm a juicy character with balls, and I'll grab her however she likes it. Ellen Page. Ya heard it here.




Save to del.icio.us

I remember being distracted by her in X3, which did a lot to make me not like it :) But her in one of the catsuit-type superhero suits? Yeah, that wasn't so hard to sit through....

jess - I would not mind a private showing involving the catsuit. Not at all.

TLS - Done and done. Just in time.
