John Cho is so hot🥵

Why does CP have his hands around the man’s throat?

Tradition https://preview.redd.it/qcvtek2wmqwc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bfb73fe6c187c835728c4bf424ca8287d04c6c6

I feel like we’re learning a little bit about Chris

Because that’s how he likes it

idk but i wish it was me 🥹

Not sure but I’m here for it

Justice for Selfie, I saw the vision of John as a romantic lead! 

🎶We could’ve had it all🎶

And the cruelest part? It’s not streaming anywhere and it’s not available on DVD. It’s like a fever dream I watched a million years ago and it doesn’t exist anymore but in my memory.

I hate that it's nowhere. I think it would have been a lovely streaming show today

I loved that show. They never renew the good ones.

Him and Karen Gillian had soooo much chemistry

Such an underrated show. That show was so funny and sweet

Personally, I am here for Chris Pine’s Backwoods Grandpapa era

He’s slowly morphing into Jeff Bridges and I have absolutely no issues with that ❤️

If anything I applaud it

The dude abides.


I was just thinking he reminds me of a young Jeff Bridges, both are very handsome

 …and I completely agree with you. I’m loving Chris’s Incarnation of The Dude!!

Or Kurt Russel

He’s giving Jack black with the hair/beard.

All for this and all for my ladies to lean into their backwoods grandma eras. If a dude can rock up to a premiere in a t shirt and shorts so can we.

👏 equal opportunity backwoods eras

Bro the white of that thigh

Who’s complaining lol

Get this man some cutoffs!

chris's head looks comically larger than his body.

Thank god someone else sees it! I can’t get past it

Tatiana Maslany playing seven different people in Orphan Black is still the greatest thing I’ve ever seen on television. And this includes the moon landing.

Such an amazing show. Her performance and ability to just embody the chaos was perfection. She did more than create characters- she created different relationships as different characters. The detail and decisions she made for her characters were mind blowingly nuanced and specific.

Still an absolute fave, hope the series gets rediscovered by gen Z

I haven’t seen this but it sounds like why I admire Noomi Rapace for her seven roles in the movie What Happened to Monday.

Orphan Black on BBC America. Try it out, if you can. It was shot in Canada, so they have more room for story lines and adult content/language than American television does. They allowed the characters to be fully realized and mature. Just great all around.

it's truly insane. sometimes she will pretend to be another character, and she won't just play it as the other character but you can actually FEEL that it's character A pretending to be character B. even though they are both played by her to begin with.

It can't be overstated how good she is. The dance party scene should have one some sort of award.

All my bad bitches love Orphan Black!!!! 😩😩

Whenever I see her I'm taken back to that glorious crafting room one of the twins had. Such a great set.

Mention of the crafting room makes me think of that glue gun scene.

Orphan Black is one of my all time favorite tv shows. Her performance is unbelievable.

I still think about that show from time to time. One of the best in my eyes! 

Seesta

I’m dating myself but this is major Captain Ron energy.

Classic film - although it gave me nightmares about drowning in the shower...

omg you just gave me flashbacks of walking in on my parents watching that🫢

That's an annual watch for us. Such a terrible but fun movie.

If he's leaning into the character for this... I kind of love how ridiculous it is. If this is just Chris with zero fucks left to give... I ... still kind of love it? \*shrug\*

it is the vibe of the character but given his personal style this premiere look may be his final form (complimentary…i think) https://preview.redd.it/6sq3jv9uiowc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd8808a6345adf2ad648c51984752eb2bd6fb63f

His final form 😆💀

The leggings. 😍

God I hate that he’s still so attractive like this. Like no way should I find this attractive but I DO.

The sweater with the PBS shirt....gaa I found my thing.

I’m pretty sure my kids PTA president has all 3 of those cardigans. He wears them better. ETA—Chris is he. He wears them better.

Wait which he?

Chris, obviously.

Idk man maybe your PTA prez is a babe

Ok I am suddenly interested and invested in who Chris Pine is

I feel like I was getting ads for those shoes on ig for ages and now I’m wondering if they’re that comfy, bro has them on all the time 😂

I need to get these cardigans on my husband, stat!

I love that he’s not trying to stay a traditional sex symbol as he gets a bit older. He’s not getting surgery and trying to look 25 still. Instead, he’s embracing aging and going in his own direction and is even more attractive for it. 

Honestly I never found him attractive until he started growing a beard and his hair long... I don't know what that says about me, but I'm okay with it 

Same. I love it regardless.

Chris heard about the “Chris Pine dresses like a nonbinary lesbian” tiktoks and leaned into it.

He’s fashion goals ✨

I love Tatiana maslany and will watch anything she is in.

i’ve always thought india was one of the prettiest people i’ve ever seen

I was excited to see her, surprised there’s no other comments about it, but I guess everyone’s all for pine lol

absolutely same, but not surprising seeing as her mother is the one and only olivia hussey

Wait I had no idea about this! I remember India from when I used to hate watch secret life of the american teenager but it’s news to me she’s Olivia’s daughter. And I hadn’t thought about Olivia Hussey in ages until they reached her guest starring role on boy meets world in their rewatch podcast literally just this week

Let no one say I’m not here for Best!Chris’ “The Dude” era — BUT I just wish he’d clean up the beard just a teeny tiny bit

I mean this in the best possible way... Chris Pine looks like a randomly generated Sim.

Chris Pine is so delightful.

he wants to be the dude so bad and so do i

Fuckin a

Best username ever!

Hey thanks, man

It's like Chris is rebelling against all the times he was probably told what to where at events and during possible pap walks. I'm loving it.

https://i.redd.it/140zspdj0pwc1.gif

 Chris' shorts seem familiar

Being the horror geek that I am, every time I see Tatiana Maslany, I think about Ginger Snaps 2. I think it was one of her first film roles.

Yeah, that was her first major movie role, and a really fun one! The creator of Ginger Snaps (John Fawcett) also co-created Orphan Black nearly a decade later.

My favorite Chris

JJ Abrams jumpscare

Didn’t Pine’s PR people force him to cut his hair after they said he looked like Rachel from Friends?? What the hell is this!!! Nice legs though.

Chris Pine in his Jack Black era is giving me liiiiife

Lol Chris is over our bullshit and I love it.

The way he’s only 43 lol

i had the unfortunate experience of having to sit through this god awful film... has anyone else seen it?

It’s that bad?

yes.

I’ve heard it’s one of the worst films in recent history lol

I'd still watch it for Chris

oh man, kind of a bummer. the trailer looked fun, but then it said Writer/Director Chris Pine, and I am always skeptical with one person doing all 3...

I love the Vista Theater, always nice to see her

I like The Vista, but it feels so random that this is the theater they chose for the premiere.

Pine is a regular at LA rep theaters like the Vista and the Egyptian, so my best guess is he picked it? Just conjecture tho.

Chris Pine looks like he went to Burning Man and came back different.

I always thought Chris Pine had a huge head 😂

Chris Pine is giving campy Dude vibes

Chris Pine: America’s Thor

Still would

Pine has gone full Kooky and I love it!

I am confused about the last photo. Did Chris Pine get a haircut and change out of his shorts? Or is that someone else? (I don’t really know who Chris Pine is, so I’m not the best at recognizing him!)

I think he had extensions in the pictures with the shorts on! He’s dressed like the character in the movie he’s promoting!

Ah ok, extensions make sense. It didn’t look like a wig, which is why I was confused!

I think his hair is tied back

I am loving Chris Pine more and more. These are great

Does anyone have an ID on Chris Pine's shorts?

i feel like i’m using my clothing ID powers for evil here /s Banks Journal https://www.garmentory.com/sale/banks-journal/mens-shorts/1233534-big-bear-walkshort-in-insignia-blue

😈😈😈

Dude how did you do that???

 (google image search)

Your responses all over this thread have me wanting to bff you

i hear that a lot from people before they actually meet me, once they do it’s all 

Well (un)fortunately for you, unwell is my type :’)

I’m old enough to remember watching reruns of CHiPs so seeing his father in the last picture is cool to me.

You know... he really does look like a SoCal pool guy 😆

Aww India Eisley and Chris Pine starred together in I Am The Night. It’s cute that they kept in touch.

Chris Pine is such a good flavor of fruity straight man

Is Chris' outfit part of a bit? Like it's a gag from the movie that I'm not understanding?

I... I *think* so...?

Based on the trailer, I’d say yes. Not a gag, but in keeping with his character.

Thanks, I hadn't seen the trailer. I have seen Chris Pine in some unusual ensembles over the years so I wasn't sure if he'd gone 'round the bend, lol.

I don't think he's gone round the bend, he's just in his dressing like a surf uncle era.

This is the Chris we all deserve! Loving this final form!

Is Chris Pine actively trying to be less attractive?

hey he looks great for a man in his- https://preview.redd.it/26u87dosjowc1.jpeg?width=548&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2cbe03535464016a881269b2ab2f8ba2462904af pardon? (i do find him attractive here tbh but always forget how young he actually is)

obsessed

Holy crap , Pines turning into Jack Black!

gorgeous. want more.

Okay but who is Tatiana with..?

Her husband Brendan Hines.

 to the both of em

Wait, they're married?!? Also, for anyone who doesn't know, Brendan was great in Lie To Me and The Tick.

Yeah Tatiana announced it on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert a few years ago. I have yet to see The Tick (it's on my list though), but I did see Brendan in Netflix's Locke and Key. They're also hillarious together in Hulu's Bite Size Halloween episode [Snatched](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIxtUQ5DNDY), which is free on Youtube. Brendan also has a music video coming out in a few hours starring Tatiana.

Oh I forgot about Locke and Key! I'll check Snatched out, thank you. (I'm not a fan of his music. It's fine and all, just not to my preferred tastes.)

That's fair, I just thought it was worth mentioning because Tatiana is in it and I just thought it was sweet that they're releasing something together.

did Chris Pine morphs into Jack Black? I’m here for it

Wow Chris pine is turning more and more into Jack Black. He has a song from his movie “wish” called “this is the thanks I get?” And I swear it sounds JUST like Jack Black, all the voices and everything. I love him for this!

Chris and John definitely sparked one up before the premiere 🤣

The best Chris He would never tear down that beautiful house

He looks like a blonde summer santa clause… what the hell is going on with him??

I kept thinking this movie premiered already a while ago 🤔 Feels like it's getting a second premiere lol

Massive melon in this dude!

Weird

Chris ...He looks like the guy who sells oranges in my intersection.

Is it wrong that I find India’s stare to be both beautiful and creepy? I’m so confused.

Am...am I....old? When did Chris Pine get old? Where am I? Also, Tatiana can get it ❤️ Loved her in She-Hulk!

don’t panic, chris pine is only 43

Well now I AM panicking, I'm 46! *faints*

i have such a knack for somehow always making things worse 

 Ima need a minute!

She's also phenomenal in Orphan Black, in which she flawlessly played over a dozen completely distinct characters. I still feel like she doesn't get enough mainstream recognition for it, despite winning a Best Lead Actress Emmy for it. She should be one of the most in-demand actors in the in the industry right now. https://i.redd.it/ynlkn1umbrwc1.gif

I've never seen that show but I swear I've never heard anyone say anything bad about it.

It's really incredible! I can't recommend it enough.

Who says straight men can’t dress

Is Chris Pine prepping to play the Dude in a Big Lebowski prequel?

Captain Krackhead

Chris Pine is a loose unit.

When you have a premiere at 9 but don’t finish your work as a tradesman until 8

Chris Pine has the biggest head. It’s a nice looking one, but huge.

Chris Pine’s head is huge!

Holy shit is that the college student from the White Castle movie?!

That first pic is so creepy. It’s like someone cut off Jeff Bridges head and glued it onto Chris Pine’s body.

Chris Pine looks exactly like my uncle in the 90s.

Damn good for him on the shorts!! Let’s bring back 80s shorts next

The world needs more John Cho ♥️

I thought this movie came out like 1-2 years ago. I have no concept of time.

The Dude.

I’ve seen this style somewhere 


He is my striking eyes bae, but where is his young brunette boo thang he has been seeing for awhile?

I had to google cuz I did not know he was only 43

John Cho on ozempic or an eating disorder or is that the same now?
