^ sorry, I didn’t mean to sound negative…I don’t know if he turned down the role or the other way around, I just remembered what he said about getting rejected in recent interviews and kinda picked up on that….

Penny Lane said:

@FL : I totally understand how you feel. last night i had a nightmare about Ben losing his popularity because he couldn’t attract enough audience. He couldn’t find a good job and his last proyect was a fiasco. He was very sad, disappointed with himself and doubting about his talent.

FL said:

OMG Penny Lane that’s one depressing dream. I just hope and pray it won’t come to that. I hope he’ll snag ANYthing that sounds box office, even Vampire Academy if he has to. He has to keep his name out there to get really meaty roles.

Maiamai said:

@FL – I thought that was exactly what he wasn´t interested in?
I mean, I´m sure he could have done plenty of highly forgettable box-office hits if that´s what he wanted.
But not all actors are interested in that – and thank God for it in my opinion.

There are so many huge and over-hyped movies out there which are about as interesting as an empty goldfish bowl *cough*Troy*cough* and I for one would rather see Ben in small and interesting films than those – even if it means only being able to catch those films on DVD.

April 15th, 2011

FL said:

@Maiamai: I agree…smaller films are sometimes better, but you also have to mix it up with some box offices to keep your name out there. Colin Firth for example…he mostly did artsy films but he also starred in Bridget Jones, Nanny McPhee and What a Girl Wants. Rob Pattinson got offered nice artsy films like Water for Elephants because of his Twilight works. So yeah, big movies aren’t always bad. They can be nice stepping stones to move to more mature roles. And the griffhood movie sounds like it’s more of an indie film that big one, the kind Ben will be interested in doing. So yeah, not sure if he rejects it in favor of something else, or if he wasn’t suitable for the role. Maybe we’ll find out if griffhood speaks more about it.

Maiamai said:

OK FL. – that settles it:
We need for you to become his manager STAT! ;o)))
You seem to have it all sorted out.

Because I was thinking the same as you said… just because he ends up not doing all the stuff he´s been rumoured to be doing doesn´t necessarily mean he didn´t get the jobs – it may very well be that he decided to turn them down. One can never be sure.

However, he seems like a smart person, so personally I think he´s aware of this though.

April 15th, 2011

FL said:

@Maiamai: yeah, he must’ve known this for sure. After all, he’s got enough rejections in his earlier days. And heck, if he hasn’t learned from it, then as you said, I’ll be more than happy to become his manager. And maybe his groomer and massager too…*wink wink*

Is that the role that early this year it was rumored to be Ben’s possible next project? I remember the source was a link to the imbd boards ..

Oh WOW! just a couple days ago I was thinking of asking about this.

Agh! Forgot to add, does anyone know yet what’s the actor for the role Ben was in for (McQueen)?

Funny article on swordfighting in VoDT and PC:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1377049/The-Chronicles-Narnia-Learning-cut-thrust-Dawn-Treader-crew.html

‘Sword fighting, even in films, is dangerous,’ says 29-year-old Barnes, who first played Prince Caspian in the 2008 film, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.

‘Even the stunt people get hurt. When I was filming Prince Caspian, I spent a third of the time using a sword on horseback. The first stuntman I attacked fell backwards off his horse.

‘I then hospitalised four others before the fifth guy, who was 65, came along. At first I thought: “Oh, no, this poor man.” But he proved more than a match for me!’

and this

” ‘Will is the absolute opposite of his character,’ says Barnes. ‘He is the sweetest, most polite man you could ever meet. But if he got anything wrong in the sword-fighting sessions, he’d always say: “Oh, sorry, sorry.”

Eventually, the team leader said: “Each time you apologise, I will make the cast do ten press ups.” So everyone had to ten press ups and then he’d say, “Sorry” again!’

LOLOL

Thanks for all the links & video uploads Maiamai, Katie, Carlie, FL, Galene, moon_cake & Jem!

@Krystal lol at finding his shoes *XD–that’s a sexy pair of shoes haha–I remember him saying he wears a “size 11 & a half English” *;P

@danielle He wears size 11 1/2 English! lol

@Katie I never thought about that, hearing your voice through the speakers… that must sound weird! You start speaking & then your voice is all magnified! Scary business *x_x. Oh & that was a really good question!
T H A N K S for uploading all those parts of the itunes video podcast to *whispers* “…youtube…” ;)

W E L C O M E ~ B A C K ~ C A R L I E ! You’re always on top of it with the Ben vids! Come rain or shine or hail! ;) Thanks for all your *drops voice low* “…youtube video uploads…” ;)

@moon_cake T H A N K ~ Y O U for sharing all your footage! Very cool! xxx ;)

@Danielle What are you talking about, Girlie! You only commented once or twice on this post! LOL! But I went ahead & responded to BOTH of them! Happy? *8) hahaha *XD

I finally watched those 50 minutes of “Meet the Filmmakers” *u* ! Too much funny & lovely parts too type about but I will say this:
I SO wonder what goes on in his mind… what is he thinking about… when he’s just staring, daydream-looking, while someone speaks… looks like he’s listening, thinking about something, & lost in thought (probably thinking of something good or funny to say next… but I still wonder). I know, this sounds so nosey & curious, ah well…
I really liked the movie clips! They were so funny! & why is that ‘Some Kind Of Loving” song so catchy! *X_X haha

*;)

@FL Haha! That, about the VoDT & PC article, is so funny! *XD

Carlie said:

If I had to rank B’s songs from KB, I would have the following list: 1-Kicking off again, 2-WWWTB, 3-Play dead and 4-the rest of the songs LOL But it’s very subjective :)) Hard to rank songs when they are so different LOL

April 16th, 2011

Lucia said:

@Krystal and Bleep:
In a level, yes! But in another level, it’s about existential angst!
LOL!

My favorite songs are Kicking Off Again, WWWB (both versions), Play Dead, Some Kind of Loving (both versions), Great Beyond (both versions).. and the rest.

The song I usually skip (after I heard it 2 or 3 times) is “Stop the World”. When I checked the song’s credits I remembered something Ben said that they took “their crappy songs (Some kind of loving, Sleepwalking) and made it (slightly?) better” O.o
I thought he was being -candidly- harsh about it. (I will look all the interviews again to hear the exact phrase (Haha! As if I need an excuse!) but coincidentally or not, the songs I like least are STW and Sleepwalking.

April 16th, 2011

KeyKey2DaBenz (aka bleep!) said:

@FL! Haha! & it’s stuck in my head too!

@Carlie It’s really fun that they’re all different! ^u^ They’re like a bunch of different roles in singing/vocal form *u*

@Lucia! Hahaaaaaaaa! *((:D)
“On one level, yes! But on another, it’s about existential angst!” That was so good! I clearly heard his voice in my head while reading that! “…a noother…” *XD Good one, girlie! *X) hahaha
& maybe I should “help you” look for that exact phrase too! *x) Ah, the dreaded footage of BB interviews I will have to go through to find it! *XD j/k

@Danielle What’s up? *8( I talk to yaaa, I talk & talk & no response! I think you can’t see me… hmm… maybe I should take off my invisibility cloak! *X) hihi *((;D) Where you at? *e_e,,,

Karaoke Sing Along….LMAO!!! ^_^

*Chorus*
Oooooooooooooo…..7x

She staggers in the garden throwing up amongst the flowers. Drunk on passions poison after closing hours. She didn’t know his name, she didn’t know his address. Never took a second look til he was tearing off her dress. A bash in the dark and then you forget her. But some kind of loving lasts forever.

Some kind loving, turns to some kind of hatred. Some kind of loving, it gets you sooner or later. Some kind of loving, locks your heart behind a brick door. Some kind of loving, is no kind of loving at all.

Repeat Chorus.7x

Slightly sharp soiled. She’s trying to understand that everything she called her own is turning second-hand. And the second-hand keeps ticking something’s kicking deep inside. She’s walking in the shadows of a night she can’t abide. You don’t have to remember…NO! But, some kind of loving, will last forever.

Some kind loving, turns to some kind of hatred. Some kind of loving, it gets you sooner or later. Some kind of loving, it locks your heart behind a brick wall. Some kind of loving..is no kind of loving at all.

*Repeat Chorus*3x

Accuser! You leave your thumbprints all over her life. Accused! I didn’t mean to leave so much. Reporter! Don’t call it some kind of crime. Call it some kind of love.

Some kind loving, turns to some kind of hatred. Some kind of loving, it gets you sooner or later. Some kind of loving, it locks your heart behind a brick wall. Some kind of loving..is no kind of loving at all.

*Repeat Chorus*4x

Yeeeehh!!!
wooohh ooohh!!! 4x

The sun is shining on the sea today
You’re living your life the easy way
You left behind
The world again
So, be a tourist
Hear the call and you’ve been saving your money
You can spend it all and you can come away
With me today

Free from all you’re meant to be
Come on baby
Jump right in
Cause tonight
We can right here
Where we want to be

Come away
Come away
Get away

All your life
You’ve been running from dreams
From the blue and the red
And the orange and green
The times have changed
But, you’re not free

Take it all in
You may never be back again
Living your life
For you can do anything
Anytime
Any—thing!

Free from all you’re supposed (meant) to be
Come on baby
Feel the breeze
Cause today
We can be dancing under lemon trees
(we can be right here, where we want to be)

~Ooohhh ooooh~

Come away
Come away
Get away

Save yourself!

Free from all your history
Come on baby
Feel the breeze
Cause today
We can be right here
Where we want to be

Chorus 3x
We can be right here
Where we want be

End *scream* Heeeeiii!!!

@Krystal

Oh you are a star! So much typing! Thanks for taking your time to do that for us here and in forum.

Speaking of song:
My favourite has to be “Kicking off again” (love Ben’s voice in it)
2. WWWTB (both versions)
3. “Play Dead”
4. “The Great Beyond” Rob’s version.

@Krystal & Bleep
And then comes the catchy “Some Kind of Loving”
as in the song:”Some kind of loving, it gets you sooner or later.”

Anyway, it’s difficult to choose when songs are all different.

@moon_cake

LOL!! You’re welcome!

I read in a post a while back someone asking for lyrics. I was bored, so, figured I’d do it. *shrug* ;D

Yes, in Kicking Off Again, he sounds like a rock GOD! *_^
Some kind of Loving….hehehe
When I hear it, I instantly think of the scene from the movie w/Ben (On one level, yes! But on another, it’s about existential angst) Hilarious!!

3 of your faves are listed in the forum. Will be adding “The Great Beyond” soon. =o)

April 17th, 2011

wooo Krystal!!! *claps* you’ve got a sharp ear! :D I’ve managed to jot down WWWTB lyric after I asked for it, and glad to see I got most of them right :D But Some Kind of Loving is quite tricky, especially since he sang parts of it like talking LOL. So thanks for getting that down pat! Such a weird song LOLOL but surprisingly very catchy :D

Thanks for transcribing them! *claps again*

You did all that! W O W! Like FL said, you do have a sharp ear! Good job! I looked & couldn’t find KB OST lyrics anywhere! T H A N K S! Haha we like group sing alongs over here, don’t we *XD hahaha.
SKOL has really comical lyrics! I don’t see how it could be taken seriously! *;P
For WWWTB if it is a sing along then some of us are acoustic & some not *XD haha–I was singing the upbeat version! *8)

There is some AWESOME person who posted more of the soundtrack somewhere, in video form, & I got to listen to the other songs fully! Ben sounds so sexy! *X_X Now I can agree with you all that ‘Kicking Off Again’ & ‘Play Dead’ are so good! He’s a really good singer & sounds extremely sexy! Oh my damn! *0_0 I can’t wait to buy the album when they sell it over here! *;) I must buy the actual official album/soundtrack!

BTW I know I look weird for only listening to the previews, clips, & songs that people post but I am too chicken to download a song I didn’t pay for! *x_x

@moon_cake haha Yes it does! ;)

@Carlie Thanks for the vid! ;)
