PICSPAM: james dean & james franco

Oct 24, 2008 01:25


I made this little picspam because I'm a big fan of both James Dean & James Franco. I've always thought they looked strikingly similar to one another (it's almost errie!). Then I saw Franco's performance as Dean in the 2001 tv movie about James Dean's life. I thought Franco was perfect! He captured James Dean wonderfully, from the look to the ( Read more... )

HOW DID MY LIFE EXIST BEFORE THIS MOMENT???

This picspam is what I have ALWAYS WANTED for my two favorite James...es. The grammar of love is difficult, clearly. But seriously, the pictures you chose and how you presented them, I literally had to double check each one to be sure of who was who and I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT. Beauuuuutiful work.

Thanks, glad you like it! I had so much fun making it. I hadn't seen one of the two of them before (I don't know why!) so I thought, "why not!"

James Franco looks like James Dean and has the same name. But he doesn't have his talent, and he will never be Jimmy.

I think James Franco is extremely talented as well, but that's you opinion :)

I'm not saying James Franco is a bad actor. He's got talent. But he can't be compared to James Dean just because he looks like him. Jimmy was unique, and James Franco is nothing like him. He doesn't have his charisme, his sensitivity, and the thing that made Jimmy so special. I hate the James Dean movie he did. I don't blame James Franco, but this movie was really bad. James did try too much to be like Jimmy, and he did it wrong.

But I don't have anything against James when he's not compared to Jimmy. He's an handsome actor, with talent, even though I think I only saw Spider-Man ^^ I've always wanted to see Tristan & Isolde, but I nerver managed to =/

I understand completely. I just did this picspam because I happened to really enjoy the James Dean movie that Franco did and am a fan of both of them. I wasn't just comparing them because they look alike, it was mostly based on the movie. Of course, Franco's not going to be exactly like him. However, if anyone had to portray James Dean, I really believe Franco is the best choice. Everyone has their opinion though :)

Honestly, Spiderman is not a good movie to see, as far as to show James' talent. Tristan + Isolde is wonderful, I highly recommend it!
