Rob's Corner

 

These past few weeks, I have been praising Rob’s performance in The Rover. I am still in awe over how dynamic his acting is in that film. But before I get myself caught up again, let’s take a step back. Even though he has a multitude of movies coming up in the next year, I think we need to look at some of his other accomplishments that might not have been widely recognized.

For the first segment, let me bring out a character I absolutely loved, Tyler Hawkins. The movie Remember Me (2010), directed by Allen Coulter, is based pre-September 2001 in NYC.

Tyler, a moody 21 yr-old, auditioning for NYU while working part-time at the bookstore, has a volatile relationship with his father, played by Pierce Brosnan, and a loving relationship with his sister Caroline, played by Ruby Jerins.

His love interest in the movie, Abby, played by Emilie De Ravin, brings a whole other level to the complexity of Rob’s character. From being beaten up by his girlfriend's father to consoling his sister from the bullies of private school, Rob really shows many sides to his acting skills.

For those that haven’t seen the movie, I am not going to spoil it, even if it’s 4 years old now. But you will not expect what happens at the end!


This is just one movie that should have brought more acclaim to Rob!

Next week, I will take another step back in time and come up with another reason why everyone should be in Rob’s Corner!

Rob's Corner: The Rover Recap

In the past few weeks, we have been lucky enough to get back to Promo Rob. I love me some Promo Rob. Premiere’s, Late Night Talk shows, Morning Talk shows...it all works since we get to see Rob. With promo for David Michod’s The Rover, we were lucky enough to get A TON of extra clips and interviews. Who didn't smile when the saw a bendy Rob getting all giggly next to Guy Pearce on Peter Travers's interview?

I was fortunate enough to be able to see the movie 2 times so far. It is AMAZING! The acting in this movie just blew me away. Not only did Guy Pearce nail his performance, but Rob was outstanding! So go see it while you can!!!


Anyway, since promo is done for The Rover in the US, what’s next for our Rey of Sunshine (yes, I see my slip there).

Well, as I see it, we have more filming to start here shortly with The Childhood of a Leader supposedly beginning this month, followed by Idol Eye’s in October. And hopefully, Maps To The Stars will make an appearance at TIFF.

Right now is such a good time to be a Rob fan!

So in case you missed anything, here are a couple of clips from The Rover promo.

Both of these films have had huge successes at Cannes and are opening worldwide within the next few months.  I, for one, cannot wait until June 20th when The Rover opens in the US!

As for other casting news, gossip is that he has been cast in Idol Eyes, directed by Olivier Assayas, with Robert De Niro and Rachel Weisz (in talks) joining.  

Rob’s next adventure brings us to Australia for The Rover premiere before heading back to LA for the US premiere.  Exciting times ahead!!  Let's see what June has in store for us!!

Robenberg in Cannes again!

Today, for the second week of my Rob obsession, another Cannes film festival selection…..

Official Trailer

Under the direction of David Cronenberg, Rob is thrown into another role that shows his diversity as an actor.  He plays Jerome Fontana, the incredibly hot, sexy limo driver who is wanting to become an actor.

With a cast that includes many well known names (John Cusak, Julianne Moore, and Carrie Fisher) and some less known but up and coming names in Mia Wasikowska and Sarah Gadon, this film is meant to show the complex world of Hollywood and how it looks to the Western Culture.

We have seen the relationship before between Cronenberg and Rob in Cosmopolis and I think that we will see them work together again.  This movie is highly anticipated not only among us Rob fans but also the film industry.

With each new project Rob signs onto, I get more and more excited to see what will happen next.

Next week, let’s talk about one of his new projects.  Will it be Life, Queen of the Desert, The Childhood of a Leader, The Lost City of Z or Hold On To Me.  Or should we take a step back and see how Rob came to be by going through past roles?  Give me your thoughts!

Cannes here we come!!

He is known to many as either Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter or Edward Cullen of The Twilight Saga, but to us who follow his career, he is known as Robert Pattinson.  My whole purpose in writing this blog is to follow the steps of his career moving forward.  So each week, I am going to try to write about one of his upcoming films.  Granted, I could talk about him non stop, but the most important thing to me is to get his name and his movies out to the public..

The first film has been announced as a midnight screening at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival.

Under the direction of David Michaud, The Rover is a futuristic film about a loner who is tracking a gang of thieves that stole his vehicle through the Australian Outback.  Along the way he picks up Reynolds, played by Rob.

This role, for Robert, seems to be more gritty than his previous roles.  From the screenshots and teaser trailers that have been released thus far by A24 films, this is not your normal “romantic/pretty” Rob.  From his fake teeth, to his dirty clothes and his bowl hair cut, he is definitely not in a teen hearthrob role that the public has associated with him.

For a link to the amazing trailer, check out the previous blog post on www.Fandemoniumnetwork.com
