eastbound & down/danny mcbride

thought the last ep was amazing. incredible montage.

had so much more of an emotional connection with this and far more end of series sadness than for breaking bad. which is a little worrying.

Fuckin hoverbike motherfucker

do I have coke on my chin?

Just watched the last episode. So was the whole season Kenny's screenplay?

no

who knew you could bottle the smell... of boner

Wow. That KP transformer with the big robot dick was intense.

LOS ANGELES, May 28, 2014 – Danny McBride, star of the hit HBO comedy
series “Eastbound & Down,” will return to the network in the comedy series VICE
PRINCIPALS, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, HBO
Programming. The show is slated for 18 episodes, with the debut date and number of
episodes per season to be announced as they are confirmed.
“Danny McBride and Jody Hill have created a smart, rowdy and unpredictable style
of comedy that we can’t get enough of,” said Lombardo. “The idea of them setting their
minds on high school was irresistible.”
“HBO was the perfect creative family for ‘Eastbound & Down,’ and we’re excited to
pack up the van for the next adventure,” notes McBride.
“When the idea for the new series became too crazy to keep to ourselves, we
knew HBO was the perfect place to unleash it,” says executive producer David Gordon
Green.
Created by Danny McBride and Jody Hill, who were also the creators of
“Eastbound & Down,” VICE PRINCIPALS tells the story of a high school and the people
who almost run it, the vice principals.
Concluding its four-season run on HBO in 2013, “Eastbound & Down” starred
McBride as irrepressible former major league pitcher Kenny Powers.
VICE PRINCIPALS is executive produced by Danny McBride, Jody Hill, David Gordon Green and Stephanie Laing, who were also executive producers of “Eastbound &
Down.”

awesome

yay!

great news

part of me wants to see danny mcbride play against type for this but most of me just wants more of what he does best

otm

Has he ever played against type? "All the Real Girls" seems like the most "against type" Danny McBride performance and that was like his first movie.

not yet. doesn't really bother me tbh. Feel like Observe & Report role should've been his too.

Yeah I'm fine with him just doing his thing. I can't really imagine him being good at much else. Even at the beginning of the last season of Eastbound where he was the mild-mannered family man, it didn't really work.

i disagree, when a DMcB character attempts to behave against type, thats some of the best DMcB

that was one episode where he was mild-mannered family man and it was hilarious

he punched a dozen donuts

also just like little moments at other parts in the series where KP fronts like he is a polite/refined person

he was p in character in Observe & Report imo?

I meant he should've had the lead, if that wasn't clear. I forgot he does have a bit part

he was originally going to be the cop iirc but then something came up (tropic thunder i guess) and he wasn't able to do a part that big

He's in the Franco version of As I Lay Dying which I imagine might be slightly outside his comfort zone. Not that I'll ever watch it

He kind of plays the straight man in Clear History

i think he pats clooney on the back and says something like 'family is more important than money man' to george clooney in up in the air.

Love danny

weird reading all the nitpicky 'this episode isn't as good as the last one but the one after is 10% better' stuff above. just watched the whole thing and it all worked as a piece. midway through s1 hit amazing heights and pretty much stayed there til the end. couple of blips with the bizarro will ferrel/geisha thing and ali g's dismal performance in the last ep but 99% flat-out brilliance.

a pox on anyone who dissed the music too, greatest use ever.

my qu though, how much of danny's performance was improvised? some of it seemed so natural and off-the-cuff it *had* to be. and not in that wearying CYE way where it ends up with two people shouting at each other for way-too-long while trying to hide their smirks.

outtakes seem to indicate quite a lot of the dialogue was improvised

ah great, i'll check out those outtakes. i've only got a bunch from s1 though, are there any from the other seasons?

idk just seen some on the youtubez

lol @ the ads for this new Bradley Cooper movie featuring a bunch of zingers from McBride and zero lines from Cooper

you have clothes like a fuckin dickhead

The funeral is still my favorite thing, I still crack up whenever I hear that fuckin song

http://youtu.be/zuTvPkIz7Y0

Can I wear the scream mask? The mask from Scream. When I do you from behind.

^^^ for some reason this floats into my mind occasionally and I giggle

loool

lol at all the above
esp funeral

I heard "Goin' Down" on a radio blues show tonight, which once again reminded me this show had the best cold opens EVAH.

INSTANTLY I REGRET SAYING THAT
I'M VERY UPSET WITH HOW I'M ACTING RIGHT NOW

music supervision on this show was amazing, hoping it made Tindersticks a bunch of money ("The Organist Entertains" was all over s1)

two words: jetpack showdown

we need a fap where we spend a week holed up somewhere with a fuckload of booze & watch the whole series

oh and individual jetskis

are you inviting me over? I go to the best nightclubs, lived a life of luxury, and I don't honestly know what you could offer me. But if you want me to come over and show you how to drink your booze and handle your affairs, let me know.

ok stevie I gotta run cause I got priors. if anyone asks you were driving thanks bro
