The Muppets (2011)

[Abraham Smashington]

FUCKING MARTINEZ. BLOW ALL THEIR ASSES OFF.

[Captain Russ]

That's the sort of terrible acting that I love.

In Day, it was just one of those "who can be the loudest dildo here" contests.

[Abraham Smashington]

THAT.

[Abraham Smashington]

Plus every character in Day (except Bub) was a piece of shit.

[Bobby Bear]

Bingo bango.

To be fair, the Ming-ness of his hair probably contributed to my suspicions. Under the harshness of the light on that rooftop + the film's aging.

I mean, am I alone? I thought sure I heard somewhere that was true.

Whoa whoa WHOA!

Tension's running high so, of course, there's a fair bit of voice raising, but not everyone's unlikable. In fact, the vast majority of non-military types are believably conflicted. In that kind of scenario, who's going to remain completely sympathetic? Take Logan: if using the military's corpses could help save the world, would that be so bad?

Many a rumor willis had been thrown about for a while, I'd assumed something was off in general, and then the commentary finally revealed the truth.

And as far as the "loudest dildo" contest is concerned, I was referring to the military specifically. But Romero being a pinko-commie-liberal, of course the non-military would come out smelling of roses (sort of sarcastic, but still true).

Agreed.

I love you guys, really... but if we were dropped into a scenario like this? Well, don't let the fact that I love you dissuade you from seeing the bigger picture.

Some of you would be on the table.

[Captain Russ]

Yeah that's fine and dandy, but don't let the scenario cloud the fact that the actors were fucking dreadful.

Polito had his charm, so don't nail that hang-up on me. His was a believable break, while they were acting like schoolyard bullies with the knob broken off at 11.

Joe Pilato is a master thespian.

Even he says so. Who are we to argue?

Yep. *brofist*

Just the very fact of there being uncertainty says so much. Thanks. Curious to listen to the commentary now.

Agreed.

I would become a gun-nut in that scenario, most likely.

[Captain Russ]

I thought the cartoony reaction he made when he opened that hall door to his demise was his only misstep.

[Abraham Smashington]

I need to get a screencap of my favorite acting moment in DotD. It's the cop asking about smokes when they are taking the helicopter. That cop is AMAZING.

Saying the actors were "dreadful" is a massive exaggeration. It's a genre flick. Day and Dawn both are, but even so there's a world of difference between the kind of stuff Liberty and Cardelle were bringing to that of their predecessors. Even the line or two supporting players are vastly superior.
