I gotta tell my dad, he's the biggest Sparks fan. We went to see them a couple years ago when they came to Montreal, place was empty but the show was great.

what if its a new and uncommon subject, and the talking heads are talking about the thing in a new situation that surprises you?

I figure, I'm here for information and storytelling, not personality. If the subject is interesting then why do I need to a famous person to jazz it up while pulling attention away from the subject? I just couldn't give less of a poo poo about watching a celebrity geek out about something, especially with what appears to be forced enthusiasm.

I just can't stand that sort of thing, definitely my biggest documentary pet peeve.

Oh weird, I was wondering why I had a dream about "The Sopranos" a couple nights ago, despite having never watched it. I'd forgotten the show came up in this thread, guess reading the posts about it here planted it in my head, no idea why my subconscious decided to latch on to it though.

I'm actually disappointed my brain didn't work gabagool into the dream (that I can remember) considering this is pretty much the only Sopranos-related media I've watched:

Look at Bruce Willis when the character motivation is revealed "you'll be reinstated" and look at his reaction. Listen to how the sound drops out to try to imply a "YEAH IM THINKING IM BACK".
loving hell Bruce just retire

His reaction is that one face slider on Elder Scrolls called like "glabella depth/ratio" that doesn't seem to do anything without it going from 0->100

Do other actors think Bruce is lazy? Do you think on set Frank Grillo doing push-ups before the shoot to get veiny and screaming 100% with his shlocky charisma (I'm a fan) see Bruce "im loving leaving use the other guy unless it's a close-up on my face" Willis and think "wow I'm starstruck what a legend"?
I know they might tell a news rag that, but I think on some level even the extras and stuff or the dude holding the lights is like "gently caress this guy is lazy", right?

I'm sorry I'd make Bruce take another shot at that reaction to being reinstated, that is borderline loving trolling the production

E: I'm trying to puzzle if it's better or worse if everyone around the set doesn't give a gently caress, or just the headline actor giving 01% so inappropriately around lesser known actors trying real hard (or is that giving them too much credit?)

Grillo takes jobs. He’s already done a movie with Willis and I forgot where he said it, maybe in the Ralphthemoviemaker video on Willis but, that it was just a job.

Yeah, I recall an interview with Grillo where he was pretty open that he can’t believe he has a career, and will do whatever is open because hell, why not.

Every line Bruce Willis has in this trailer sounds like it was delivered by an AI that's trained to mimc bruce willis's voice

Also, seems like it would be the kind of movie where you can tell from the trailer that they only had their "big star" for like a day or two of filming (see also: the Money Plane trailer with Kelsey Grammer or the 10 Minutes Gone trailer with....Bruce Willis)

Watching the whole trailer it seems like this ISN'T that kind of movie.....but it still feels like it is

Didn't Willis get replaced by Harrison Ford in Expendables 3? I remember Stallone came out and said that Willis was lazy. I may have that backwards because both of them checked out a while ago.
