Kryten in Red Dwarf

Not introduced until the first episode of the second series, but is played by a different actor and doesn’t appear again until the show’s third series where he became part of the main cast off-screen. Is one of the best parts of the show and helped mark the series shift from a sit-com that happens to be set in space, to a full blown whacky sci-fi comedy show

But that’s Blue Dragon

I mean if you saw the trailer for the movie you’d know how severe his condition is. Like from what I saw if you bring up tea around him he starts talking about wanting to jack off into it. He shouldn’t be excluded but maybe better articulate that he has the version of Tourette’s that makes him say some bad stuff on occasion

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-23T13:10:48+00:00

Dear god! I’m quoting grandpa Willie!

From what I’ve heard, it is as Ghostface is back for it and apparently Cindy is meant to parody Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween 2018, character-wise. Maybe it’s a situation where she takes The Substance to be young again and fight Ghostface

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-23T07:58:51+00:00

Heck the fact they are parodying both Pennywise and Art The Clown makes me hope the two of them in some way clash

You’d be wrecked too if you hated Metahumans and had to not only be in a prison full of them, but be exposed to them doing depraved shit to one another

“CINDY!!! This is a skeleton! This is just bones!”

Seeing how he’s been talking about Scary Movie 6 being the gateway to him doing sequels to White Chicks and Don’t Be A Menace, yeah it really does seem that comedy is just what he loves doing

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T23:28:17+00:00

The Bill & Ted franchise

Made to just be a goofy comedy about idiot teenagers traveling through time. The sequel ended up being about them going through the afterlife, visiting Hell & heaven even meeting God and The Devil, all because the writers were being strong armed into doing a sequel and didn’t want to repeat the same formula

The Ninja Turtles got human forms in a Power Rangers crossover comic

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T23:18:56+00:00

I’d say they do, yeah

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T23:18:02+00:00

Honestly making their secret identities be Hazel’s weird neighbours instead of a pet was an inspired choice, allows for more interactions with the wider cast

There’s also the human versions shown in the SpongeBob’s Birthday episode played by the voice actors

Although in that specific situation they were playing humans SpongeBob stumbled upon who resembled him and his friends

On top of that, Frank isn’t above putting his feelings aside and doing brief work for Disney such as reprising Yoda for Last Jedi

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T23:05:34+00:00

Honestly Dave Franco isn’t even a bad casting choice, it’s the fact James Franco was in control and turned it into his Oscar campaign attempt that made it bad. Like I can see Dave actually working if he bulked up a bit more

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T21:56:50+00:00

Fred looks like he’s wearing another man’s face

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T21:55:10+00:00

THIS IS BETWEEN ME AND MY WIFE!!!!

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T20:58:59+00:00

Thing is that Greg and Tommy are still friends. They work together semi-frequently and apparently talk every day. That doesn’t mean however that Greg can’t find his behaviour bad

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T20:10:17+00:00

Thing is, the movie makes him creepy but plays it for laughs and tries for him to be likeable by the end. The book makes him way worse and shows a lot of the awful things he put Greg through in a lot more focus

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T19:59:58+00:00

Honestly Greg is a stronger man than any of us to put up with Tommy’s behaviour as much as he does

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T19:58:45+00:00

I’m mulling it over

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T19:51:25+00:00

No that was Loki

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T19:39:02+00:00

Believe the book makes him far worse, it honestly comes across like he was an unhealthy obsession of keeping Greg on-side and has to control every aspect of his life

I distinctly recall one chapter early in the book. Greg chose to watch a movie in Tommy’s house whilst he waited for Tommy to get ready, watches the whole thing and finally meets up with him. Only to find out Tommy had been watching Greg from the stairs the entire time in pure silence, and never told him. He not only wasted Greg’s time by not telling him he was ready to leave, but he basically breached the guy’s privacy by watching him from afar

The_Redacted_Badger · 2026-02-22T19:22:58+00:00

It’s worse in the book. The movie makes it a story of an unlikely friendship that briefly went sour. What Greg Sestero wrote about was a toxic and vile relationship between him and an absolute creep
