God damnit. This is so much funnier than it deserves to be. I'm giggling angrily even now, and I suspect I'll think about this again before bedtime.

Yes, but let's be honest...

If not for Star Wars his legacy would much more prominently feature brown face that has not aged nearly as well.

Yeah, but he negotiated a percentage of the box office when nobody else believed in it.

He seems a lot more positive about it in this interview.

Seeing Obi-Wan in a suit is weird as hell

Unironically I will always remember Alec in Tinker Tailor before Star Wars.

But what did Chewwie eat? If he was on a planet of Teddy Bears, how did he get Door Dash delivered to him?

And got in a tug of war with Gary Oldman over who people think of when they say "George Smiley"

For some reason I pictured Gary Coleman and this post is now hilarious to me

I haven't seen Guinness as Smiley, but I recently watched The Spy Who Came in from the Cold with Richard Burton as Leames (and apparently a guy called Rupert Davies as Smiley), and holy moly was it boring. Dreadful.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (with Oldman) was slow af, but I at least found it watchable.

I thought the BBC tinker tailor and Smiley's People was really good, understated performances. But I'd read the books a few times so caught a lot of the cues.

You gotta have a legitimate British theater actor in your space wizard movie to sprinkle in a touch of authenticity.
