Ben has grown on me over the years. Thought he was great in The Outsider (and Ready Player One).

I think he’s the best Star Wars villain yet, though Dedra Meero is growing on me.

Except for when he randomly went from being some badass to being a pushover, all in the span of a few minutes iirc.

Errr, that was his character though? His character was never a "badass", he was always a whiny, narcissistic, brown nosing psychopath that wanted to appear to be "badass" while always just being kind of pathetic.

Fantastic job on that though, giving his villain a ton of depth while still making him a fun villain to hate, while all the two main leads just look a bit lost.

Watch Bloodline. Netflix. One hell of a cast, and this guy manages to steal every scene he’s in. Season one.

1st two seasons of Bloodline are wonderful. He’s mesmerizing.

Gotta check out The Place Beyond The Pines if you haven’t yet, he’s amazing in that

I absolutely love Ready Player One, and in the same vain Alita, they’re just fun movies. I can’t wait for both sequels
