What changed with Melissa McCarthy?
I loved her in Spy and Only Murders in the Building but I haven’t seen anything she’s been in for AWHILE otherwise
They/them NB
The most annoying thing about being famous is having to tell everyone how famous you are.

The only two things I can say that I enjoy her in are Spy and Only Murders in the Building.
In both cases the rest of the movie/show carries her but she doesn’t actively make them worse like she does with 90% of the stuff I’ve ever seen her in…
You’re right! I fully forgot about penguin!
Both would be fine options tbh. I personally find the blender one to be functional but a bit clunky since it’s clearly not the main focus though so it’s probably the lesser of the two options if that’s all you’re doing
I think that’s honestly why I think he’s fun. His king Arthur movie is a hardcore guilty pleasure as someone who enjoys the actual king Arthur myths…
Why the fuck did they try to make him a superhero???
It’s just blind stupid fun but they don’t have an ego attached like the rocks movies do
I disagree heavily with Collin Farrell! He sucks when he’s in a big budget movie but he’s fantastic when he does his little art films.
Check out In Bruges as a great example.
The rule I’ve always gone with is that if the average person knows the movie exists he probably sucks and otherwise he’s fantastic.
A lot of actors are terrible people but Kevin Spacey specifically seems to play it up irl for some reason?
After he got booted for the whole thing he started making videos on his YouTube channel telling the world that he would come for them and that they would regret hurting him while in character as a villain from projects he’s worked in in the past.
He’s the only actor I know of that knows exactly why people don’t want to see him and continues to play into that specifically for some reason…
Chris Pratt is one of my big ones… Can’t stand the guy
Dungeons and Dragons, Heretic, Paddington 2…
He’s been doing a lot of villain movies recently and he is FANTASTIC at being the bad guy!
I agree that he is awful as the main character though… I want to see him defeated!!!
Holy shit idk how I forgot to mention Kevin Hart!
Wouldn’t that mean they need to go more off the rails instead of chill out?
They could make it WAY more fucked up instead
I watched it more recently and a thought it was really good foreshadowing.
Spoilered for those that don’t know discovery.
The person who said this stuff is secretly evil.
He’s exactly the type of person Edison and Elon are and so him just naming his favorite scientists and 2 of them happen to be actually evil just made me go “maybe this guy sucks” and Boom! Plot twist! He sucks!
Him aspiring to those terrible people was a good writing choice imo… Even if it might not have been intentionally a good writing choice
This could be uploaded to a shitposting community with no changes and do quite well
This makes me think that you might need more space
Spy was a movie that felt like it was making fun of her other roles in a way that made me enjoy it. The subversive aspect was good. I fully understand why it wouldn’t appeal to someone else though since it literally is the same character she’s played in a ton of other stuff.
