Matt Damon, you are being replaced. Jeremy Renner was announced today to be the next Jason Bourne, which seems like a pretty badass choice to me. The Bourne series apparently has nothing to do with the Robert Ludlum books, but is quality action movie viewage nonetheless. Not only that, but Renner will also be making an appearance as Hawkeye in the new Thor movie. I could give two craps about Thor, but I am happy to see such a great actor getting some roles.
That actually brings me to the main reason of this blog. Here's a clip of Renner 20 years ago in a junior college play, The Wizard of Oz, as the Scarecrow. So there you go. Kids from community college can do something with their lives. I, however, am the exception.
Anyway, if you watch this clip and wonder what the hell the guy in the black suit is on the left side of the stage on all fours, it's the poor shmuck who had to play Toto. Because a real dog just would've looked STUPID.
It's funny that you said he's blowing up this year, with his role in Hurt Locker and all. ;-) And watching that dog dance is hilarious!
