apocalypsosJared Padalecki is going to play Thomas Kinkade. Yes, cheap-ass cheesy cottage paintings Thomas Kinkade.
How is it that I loathe and despise Thomas Kinkade and yet LOVE this? It's the paint-covered fingers, isn't it? I mean, that's got to be part of it, although I think it's the somebody's-got-some-serious-impeding-your-ability-to-walk-balls factor of writing a very serious movie about Thomas Kinkade in which at no point will he say, "Hey, let's mass-produce ugly pictures of candlelit cottages and drain any artistic merit right out of them!"
I think it's the Peter O'Toole thing. Because, you know, it's Peter O'Toole.
There's a part of me that thinks the only way this could amuse me more on some fundamental level is if he were playing Bob Ross and painted happy trees and wore a fake afro for two hours.
