MemberOvomorph02/12/2012Thoughts on Michael Fassbender...
Okay, so to me he doesn't seem like the typical Alien guy character. In the movies I've seen, his character is generally emotionally withdrawn (Edward Faitfax Rochester) or without a concience. Much like an Adroid, but also not, as he often falls in love and develops deep emotions, put of the ability of an android.
Any thoughts on the general "existence" of Michael Fassbender's character?
What do you all think he'll be like?

MemberOvomorph02/12/2012On Fassbender himself - personally I really rate the guy as an actor. He is extremely versatile and I have enjoyed his performances in many films ( Hunger and Inglourious B***ards in particular).
Regarding his character, he has already stated that he based David on Blade Runner more than any of the synthetics from the Alien franchise, he also modelled the character's physicality on Greg Louganis, bizarrley enough.
Therefore I expect a performance with
a) very correct posture and
b) A detached and intriguing personality type, similar IMO to Rachel (Blade Runner)
I also expect a sinister turn of events in David's character and I am sure Fassbeneder will do this very well.

MemberOvomorph02/12/2012Both him and Pearce can play everything ...from the hero to the evil guy to the android ...everything . Actors like that are rare..often famous actors like Bale , Crowe , Depp plays always the good guy ( and on the long run they are predicable ) but Fassbender have chosen to be different and i like that choice .

MemberOvomorph02/12/2012Ueah, it will probably be a lot like Bladr Runner, and it's cool becausr Noomi, Michael, and Charlize are all versatile so it should be interesting to see how the characters act, and if they are as complex as Noomi Rapace says in interviews.
