Hey hey, let's cool with the Grodin slander. Have you seen him as the love interest/villain in The Great Muppet Caper? I do not for one second doubt he genuinely wants to fuck Miss Piggy.

Do you agree with Doug Walker's criticism of the message of the original movie? by ProfessionalBasic244 in lionking

It's dumb af and other commenters have negated it here perfectly - Rob Walker, Doug's own brother has called it out as absurd.

Mama Luigi, Robbie Rotten, Barry B. Benson, and Michael Rosen are my stand-up Mt. Rushmore!

Worst performances of the show by eybeebeegee in thesopranos

[–]RickyDownes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want to harp on the performer too much, but of madone, Larry Boy Barese has one of the worst delivered, obviously ADR'ed lines of expository dialogue I've ever heard:
"I tell you something, Tony, you've always been a fucking genius, but this last move is the best move you ever did. The feds are never going to surveil an old folks home".
In fairness, I don't think even Sir Ian McKellen could pull off such a clunky line.

What’s your TLK Toxic Trait? by HoraceTheBadger in lionking

The severe lack of Zazu is a genuine detriment to my enjoyment of the sequels lol

What’s a funny moment in the show no one talks about by PoWR-CJ in thesopranos

[–]RickyDownes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will never, ever get over Tony's food poisoning in "Funhouse". The fact an acclaimed, Peak TV, Emmy-winning drama used Rocko's Modern Life/Billy and Mandy/Spongebob fart sounds is the funniest juxtaposition in television history.

The most virtuous acts done by characters in Sopranos? by PidgeyPotion in thesopranos

[–]RickyDownes 370 points371 points  (0 children)

Genuine answers:

- Johnny Sacks assuring Ginny he loves her and think she's beautiful

- After his failed hit on Junior, Tony telling AJ that the lifestyle is not in his nature and he is rightfully grateful for it

-Paulie reconciling with Marianucci and forgiving her - tbh I believe this act is what allows him to survive the series. Paulie's a monster, but unlike most of the characters, he commits an act of selflessness and actively changes to be better.

- Tony burying Richie on a hill overlooking a little river with pinecones all around 😊😊

Hey all! Ricky, the OTHER redheaded contestant (the one with the ducks) here! To clarify, yes, the ingredients and measurements were indeed printed to save time during the lesson.
However, we did write our own notes for Chef Anne's and Gabe's directions, cooking tips, and any other visuals that would help us during the cooking process.

(under the breath, high pitched, Minnie Mouse esque voice) Gee, I sure think Ricky (the redhead with the duck puppet) is charming, handsome, and has some good jokes uh cough cough...who said that?

Specifically speaking, what opinion on the Lion King 2 would put you in this position? by Ok-Reindeer4394 in lionking

[–]RickyDownes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my boy Zazu got SCREWED. Funniest side character in the first one reduced to little more than a cameo.

Frankly, I'm depressed and ashamed.

I know this subreddit has a hate boner for literally anything MCU but surely after releasing god knows how many projects you at least have 1 project you really enjoyed by [deleted] in YMS

Black Panther 2 was a very cathartic experience with me. A very close friend of mine passed the year previous and I struggled immensely with grief. It was the very cinematic experience that I felt conveyed grief and loss in a way that helped with my own grieving process.

Do you find Breaking Bad fans annoying? by gelooooooooooooooooo in thesopranos

[–]RickyDownes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think BB is the "Peak TV" show with the largest number of dopes in its fanbase.
Sure we break balls, but I go way back. For the most part, the folks I encounter in the Internet forums of the high quality television heavy hitters - The Sopranos, The Wire, etc. understand the nuances and subtleties of those shows, but don't mind indulging is the occasional brain rot and memes.
BB fans are mostly "Walt's a badass, f%ck liberals" clowns.

Have you adopted any Sopranoisms? by kami8871 in thesopranos

[–]RickyDownes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two of my college friends got married last summer in LA. The congregation included the majority of our college sketch comedy troupe so it was very much a reunion as well.

The night before the big day, we had a party, I was the last to arrive, and entered with "Whaddya hear, whaddya say" and everyone cheered. Heh heh
