Óscar bait? Is this his Saving Ryan‘s Privates? Tom Hanks rode that movie to an Oscar. Or is it his 1917, a losing picture? Will Pete even be believable as a soldier in a war movie? Or will he be like his character Chad and just say “OK” at every command?

OP, how does Pete Davidson pass as Asian?

How can Hollywood executives be so dense after all the yellow face furor time and again in recent years. Have they not learnt their lessons or do they think the certain controversy will help film publicity?

Tom Hardy and Pete Davidson!

he's not playing Vietnamese, he's playing a soldier in Vietnam.
and Tom Hanks didn't win an Oscar for Saving Private Ryan.

This will only work if Linda Hunt plays his dad.

He'd do well as the soldier who terrorized Vietnamese civilians in the middle of the night as he trick 'r treated while threatening them with a gun.

I have no issue with Pete's career. More power to him. Cash those checks. But, while I get the big dick energy and all, I just don't really see any talent. I just Pete Davidson.

He must have enormous personal charm, because otherwise I cannot see why he keeps landing great gigs. His stand-up is not funny, he cannot act in comic roles, and although he has nice features, he always has dark circles under his eyes and his body is not muscular and is heavily and unattractively tattooed.

So many of you dummies saw that headline and thought it seemed accurate? Really?
Nothing about it seemed off and made you think to click the link to check if that very suspicious headline was reflected in the article? No? This is why we can't have nice things.
From the linked article: They're ALL playing AMERICAN soldiers in the Vietnam war.

I don't get why we have to keep hearing about him. He was trending on Twitter too.

R16 Larry David's daughter just released a book in which she devoted a whole chapter to her infatuation to Davidson. Hence the new twitter buzz.

Please, the OP wasn't lying.
They were just being really stupid.
You know how stupid people are.

Great looking BDF and legitimate sizemeat, but the tattoos are so hideous. Could he really be in any period piece with those tattoos? Soldiers in hot and humid Vietnam would have a lot of skin showing, sleeves rolled up, shirts unbuttoned, shirtless in their downtime. I can’t see him fitting in.

r12: let me get this straight--you're blaming the OTHER posters and not OP for his misleading headline.

R12, r5 already said that.
For Datalounge, that's pretty quick turnaround. I've seen threads like these get to over 100 posts before someone steps in and corrects everybody.

R12 here. Yes R21 I am blaming people for not using any critical thinking skills when reading an obviously strange headline on the internet. Especially when there's a linked article right there to check the facts.
What a bunch of maroons.

9/11 boy’s expiration date has expired. He’s a walking talking downer with zero talent and major drug habits. He’s just 9/11 boy. Nothing more, nothing less.

And yet he’s in an A-list Oscar bait Vietnam movie and you’re not. He’ll be accepting the Oscar before you.
