The Invisible - discussion, etc.
I wanted to post these air dates, and was surprised to see we don't have a thread yet for The Invisible.
According to IMDb, it will be airing twice this week on FX:
Wed. Apr. 21 10:00 AM FX
Thur. Apr. 22 8:00 AM FX
This is one I haven't seen yet. So, I'll be recording it this time.

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
thanks, Lilly....this I have on DVD....Alex got some decent air time and I liked the premise, but there were a lot of unanswered questions at the end

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
I watched this movie the first time for Alex, but I was surprised at how much I ended up liking it.
I'll be curious to see what you think of it, Lilly.

Have to admit, with this one, I started watching, got bored, and ended up surfing for Alex....HE was quite good. Er, bad...er...good at being bad.

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
I actually liked the movie, but I didn't like the character Alex played at all. And this is one time I definitely didn't like the way Alex looked. I realize it was the character he was playing but it was a total turn off for me in terms of his looks.
Thank you Coco for the lovely banner.

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
this was the first time I saw what I thought was a "teen" movie in a long time. There were faces I recognized and I admit you have to look past the gritty Marcus to see the actor Alex inside.
There are some fan fics out there, which surprised me, YET the movie left some unanswered questions.....Did Marcus die? Did he ever find redemption?? Annie was a "hot mess"

Oh enjoy it, Lilly! Very different character for Alex, and very cool performance. Albeit small role.

Grateful to Alex for Mick, Andy, and McG.

It's a great movie. I watched it the first time for Alex, but ended up loving the movie for itself.

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
I went to the Intense Study tumblr site today and they have a mystery on their hands that I've never heard about.
http://alexoloughlinintensestudy.wordpr ... hairpiece/
They have discovered a tattoo on the back of Marcus' head!
Now the big question is whether it's real or for the movie like the bluebird tattoo.
I can't figure out exactly what it is. Can anyone else?

I don't believe for a second Alex has a tattoo on his head.

Re: The Invisible - discussion, etc.
I agree. It is most likely for his character Marcus. If Alex had a "real" Tattoo on his head I'm sure we all would have had record of it long ago.PNWgal wrote:I don't believe for a second Alex has a tattoo on his head.
As often as he buzzes his hair off for hiatus someone would have noticed I'm sure.
Also Alex has admitted to the # of Tattoos he has and this one is not one of them. (7) including the now vanishing forearm tatts. Only a huge change made to the back tatt and the small change to the buddah shoulder tatt were note worthy.
Like the cross from feed and the swallow on Marcus's neck this one is fake IMHO.
