Colin Farrell’s Golden Globe win should silence the comic book genre haters
It began with the spark of a candle in 1941 related to the Max Fleischer Superman cartoons. Wait, a comic book genre?! No one was certain what to think about pages coming to life. The comic book genre has been under siege during “Awards Season” since 1978 when Christopher Reeve made the world believe a man could fly.
Recently, a different Bat signal had been emblazoned across Hollywood’s sky, and it is solid gold. Can we stop hating on this genre now?
It probably won’t happen as long as people like Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott, Roland Emmerich, and David Cronenberg are helming Hollywood. They’re so influential and vociferous against the comic book genre that it tends to make the award bureaus reconsider a person acting in spandex really isn’t “acting.” As if cosplay doesn’t involve imagination.
And so, hate continues against any visual entertainment from comic books and graphic novels.
Colin Farrell’s Golden Globe win for his role in “The North Water” should finally put an end to the criticism of actors who take on roles in comic book movies.
For years, there has been a stigma surrounding actors who star in comic book adaptations, with many dismissing these films as mindless entertainment. However, Farrell’s win proves that actors who take on roles in these films are just as talented and deserving of recognition as those who star in more traditional, award-winning projects.
Farrell’s performance in “The North Water” was praised for its depth, complexity, and emotional range, proving that he is a versatile actor capable of delivering top-notch performances in a variety of genres. This win should serve as a reminder that actors should not be judged based on the type of projects they choose to work on, but rather on the quality of their work.
So to all the comic book genre haters out there, take note: Colin Farrell’s Golden Globe win is a testament to the fact that great acting transcends genre. It’s time to give credit where credit is due and acknowledge the talent and dedication of all actors, regardless of the type of projects they take on.
