Regarding the movie, I thought it was much better than expected, likely owing somewhat to Lopez's involvement. I found it funny, sexy, romantic, well-written, and not nearly as cringey as it could have been.

The poster you're responding to is famous for having strong opinions about what should and should not be discussed on this board.

Oh please. Talk about an exaggeration. If you're referring to me, please find the last post where I told people what they can or can not talk about (not this one because fyi I did not tell someone they could or could not discuss the topic, I just said it was a silly question. Which I apologize for. It's fair to ask).

I probably should have minded my own business and I'd rather not escalate! I accept that I was probably putting words in your mouth with my comment.

His voice is fine.He could pull off a Mamma Miaor Britney Spears style jukebox musical. But I don’t know if he has the range for more challenging roles.
He'd be kinda perfect for Sky in a revival of Mamma Mia though. Get Carmello belting Winner Takes It All again, opposite some ingenue or new up&comer for Sophie (Caroline Innerbichler perhaps) and maybe a couple famous Hollywood names and you have the perfect show ready to go.

His acting was just fine in the Kissing Booth series. He was natural and sexy. He was not directed very well in Red, White and Royal Blue. Even Uma Thurman gave one of her worst performances. An experienced director would have made the actors look better. Taylor was anticipating during the scene work like he was uncomfortable. He was also pushing too hard.

Thank you. I appreciate that. You're much better than the others who constantly berate me for my comments and say I tell people what to talk about? They completely exaggerate and it's enough. Like they can block me, I can block them. They need to move on. I can post on here, and if they can't take it maybe they should be the ones who don't post here. Sorry it's just insane that they never own up to what they do and I'm the one who's constantly apologizing. Ugh.

Here's what Taylor Zakhar Perez told Newsweek about his love of theater and performing: ''As an actor, we want to suspend disbelief, right? That's why I got into acting. I loved being on stage like in Guys and Dolls or On the Town; those roles are just so outside of myself that it was fun to get ready for it every time. And so bringing that into the TV and film world, I mean, Kissing Booth was exciting because I got to show singing, dancing, guitar playing and being a Latin addition to an already successful IP [intellectual property]. That meant something and the amount of times people have come up to me on the street, like young guys with their girlfriends, young guys with their boyfriends or whatever, they're like, "You're my favorite character in the Kissing Booth. I watch it with my girl. I never see anybody on TV that looks like me." That's awesome. I didn't expect that to happen. ... Like I want to do something that when people leave the theater or leave their TV room, they're like, "whoa," and they can't stop talking about it. This ['Red, White & Royal Blue'] is one of those projects, and I'm really looking forward to what's next.''
