Title: Topher Grace.
Post by: Stefen on June 10, 2005, 07:50:33 PM
I just finished watching In Good Company (what a fantastic film, eh?) and was really impressed with this guy. I was only familiar with him on that 70's show which I don't really dig, but he was really good in In Good Company. Definetely suprised me. I think if he keeps an eye on picking good scripts and working with talented people he's gonna do really well. He's got the talent, I think.

I realised he wasn't an idiot when I watched Traffic.  This guy is really talented... and he couldn't have picked a better time to leave That 70's Show (actually, he could have... but whatever).

I think he has a big future just because he is picking the right films and not jumping into anything just for publicity like Ashton Kuchner did...

The guy is a very good actor, and seems like a good guy... I wish him the best

i like him too.  actually my girlfriend and her family always said i reminded her of him on that 70's show.  

word of advice: if you're flipping HBO and you see Tad Hamilton on, keep flipping.  DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES stop on that channel.

I wish I would have seen that warning earlier...I stopped to watch.

It was awful.

But I was really impressed with Topher Grace in "In Good Company". If he keeps on playing things right, I really think he could go far...

I remember saying after the first few episodes of That 70s Show that he was the new Michael J. Fox.  Since then, he's shown that he's so much better than that.

I just saw In Good Company last night, which I liked and I'm liking it more as I think about it more.

And good for him for telling Kutcher that he won't sign a Punk'd release so don't bother trying to get him.

As long as Steven Soderbergh stays obsessed with him, he'll always have a proverbial couch to sleep on.  His "Ocean's 11 & 12" cameos were the funniest parts of both those movies.  And, of course, "Traffic".

He was great in "In Good Company", and amazing in "P.S.", despite that being a really well-intentioned misfire of a movie.  It'll be interesting to see how "Spider-Man 3" treats him.
