Members R Sinclair Posted January 23, 2011 Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 No, I wasn't referring to anything you said. I was referring to the fact that this will undoubtedly happen and be touted in the soap press very shortly. The way he patted himself on the back for giving Lexi Ainsworth tips on how to "get it." The way Laura Wright bragged about how he told her she "got it." The way Kirsten Storms mentioned how he came over to her an commended her acting when she first debuted as Maxie. The way he brags about "seeing something more" in Steve Burton and mentoring him. The way Vanity cackles about the way MB told her she needed to learn how to act when they first were paired together. Now we have Haley Pullos' Molly coming to MB's Uncle Sonny in a bipolar storyline. So now we've got two things in one to stroke MB's ego. A ripe, young actor he can teach how to act AND bipolar disorder which he's the expert on as well and instead they give to Sonny. The swayback nag is on the loose again?

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted January 23, 2011 Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 LOL. That really is how she says it! ROTFL!!...yeah. IMO he's not a horrible actor, he can be really good when he's trying. Most of the time it doesn't seem like he is to me though. But even when he's not trying I don't see him exactly as "Horrible". IMO the last time he gave a really good performance was when Sonny found out Claudia got Michael shot, particularly the scenes at her birthday party. Carly is stuck in High School!

Members R Sinclair Posted January 23, 2011 Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 Not even. She's that 23 year old dropout whose peers have all left to college and has no choice but to hang out with the high school kids... who only appreciate her because she can legally buy them beer. I mean, dear God! That's exactly how I feel when I see this grown ass woman in scenes towering over the likes of Sam, Robin, Lulu, Spinelli, Dante etc. The writers can't inflict her on any of the "mature" characters because they'll chew her up and spit her out.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted January 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 When he tries, he's decent. In the early 90's, he was good. In the mid 90's (Stone/Robin/Brenda/Sonny era.) he was great. He was pretty good when SarahBrownCarly and Sonny first got together. But he's been steadily worse since around 2001. For me, I could tell when Tamara Braun stepped into the role of Carly. She was giving it her all, but Maurice just seemed bored to me. He's seemed bored for 10-12 years, really. He doesn't seem to put any effort into it. He shows up and (sometimes) memorizes his lines. And yeah, that scene with Claudia was pretty good. But it's funny that the only scenes Maurice seems to "shine" in are the ones where he's screaming at and calling women whores. Makes me wonder if it's really "Acting" at all.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted January 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 Woah, am I the only one who JUST realized that they completely dropped BrookLynn/Johnny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Nope, I was thinking about that the other day. I thought she had better chemistry with him and wish they had kept them in each other's spheres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 The frozen face rapist hasn't had much chemistry with anyone but they probably think they can use her to prop up Nik. Johnny is used to prop up Lisa, since Brianna Brown has flopped ever since they made the mistake of keeping Lisa around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 I think Adrianne Leon actually has chemistry with almost everyone she works with. She was one person who actually stepped up and ACTED in scenes with LW, whereas everyone else just sits there and lets her do her snarling. Also, AL has great chemistry with JE. I think that Brook and Johnny, as well as Brook and Nik, had chemistry. Brook/Johnny was more physical. They were hot together. They seemed like the couple who would start off having beers and using each other for sex, but eventually start to feel for one another. Nik/Brook seem more emotional first. He was a powerful man who's life crumbled around him. She's a dumb kid who made mistakes. They started out as two lonely people who each had what they other needed. They developed a nice friendship, and they have the chemistry to see that progress into true emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 I thought the mad horse stomped and snorted and neighed all up in that potential pairing because she didn't want Brook distracted from breaking up Lante? It was either she forgot about Johnny and focus on sleeping with Dante, or the nag threatened to cut her off and send her packing to Bensonhurst.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Yeah, I think you're right. I'm surprised Brook didn't go after him on her own after though. Oh well. I was also disappointed she only went back to the Q house for one day. Oh well. I like Brook/Nik well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OLTL_fan Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 A bit? she looks terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 I don't think she looks bad. I don't think she looks any different, really. OF course she hasn't been on in so long, it's hard to tell. But I always remember her having a unique fface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 How long till GH kills this new black guy Shawn.
