I meant he should've had the lead, if that wasn't clear. I forgot he does have a bit part
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 22:54 (ten years ago) link
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
― balls, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 23:03 (ten years ago) link
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
― Number None, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 23:06 (ten years ago) link
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.
― NI, Tuesday, 10 June 2014 17:26 (ten years ago) link
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.
― NI, Tuesday, 10 June 2014 17:28 (ten years ago) link
outtakes seem to indicate quite a lot of the dialogue was improvised
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 10 June 2014 17:30 (ten years ago) link
ah great, i'll check out those outtakes. i've only got a bunch from s1 though, are there any from the other seasons?

I don't know if I ever posted about this on ILX but I befriended a temp at my old job who once told me (TOTALLY UNSOLICITED that her husband liked to fuck her from behind while wearing a Jason mask and positioned in front of a mirror so they could both watch).

I caught a part of the movie where all the apatow dudes are in franco's house during Armageddon recently and was reminded of just how much I love McBride. I mean, sure, he sort of always plays the same dude (give or take a couple variations) but he plays that dude so well that I can't help but love him.

weird that the ILX hivemind is all on this recently - I was dippin into s1 a few weeks back, so good.
McBride and Franco's argument about porn in This is the End is amazing

Yes! That movie had some really good moments imo.

yeah can't help but love mcbride toolol at temp storythat's a haunting image
― drash, Tuesday, 29 September 2015 15:27 (eight years ago) link
he is the best. he even shows up in that bizarro as i lay dying movie franco made (which is not good and also not half as bad as people probably imagined it) and is completely convincing as a good ol' boy of that time period
― slothroprhymes, Tuesday, 29 September 2015 15:27 (eight years ago) link
he's in the new Bill Murray movie too apparently?
agree he is the kind of guy/character I will always give a pass because of this show, even when he's appearing in garbage

One of my fave musical moments was riding ATVs in Mexico in slow motion to "Let's Go Everywhere" by Medeski Martin & Wood and there is no video of that online anywhere apparently :(

mcbride just nails that guy so well. just total south georgia. it's not even a case of 'i know this guy', it's 'i know these guys'. maybe i'm forgetting something but i would have to think this is easily the most underrated hbo show, as hbo comedies go i'd only put larry sanders and maaaybe curb above it (and i LOVE veep and silicon valley).
― balls, Tuesday, 29 September 2015 20:46 (eight years ago) link
I do think that S1 dwarfs the other seasons by a fair amount (tho S4 is probably second best iirc)
