He looks like a black person's racist caricature of a white person
literally me
Jarod the jawless
>hetero couple
So a normal couple?
bought one of those online to wear at the gym, everybody including the manager thought it's fricking hilarious but I had to take it off after some kegel dyke kept complaining at the front desk
this one?
literally fricking me
I always thought he looked like an albino half-black guy
Is that why I dont like him?
Theres something about the dude that always put me off despite not really doing anything wrong as a bit actor. Its like an uncanny valley affect.
IOi you got a loicense for that there ray-cist picture?
>Refusing work because of muh magic sky daddy
Cringe
The number of coomers in this thread who treat sex scenes as ever necessary is actually saddening.
They are almost never necessary, I gave one of the only times I think it is.
"Necessary" isnt the the metric. "Director wants it in the story" is.
I think it is stupid to get fired because you dont want to simulate what you think is bad, while simulating all sorts of other things you would need to think are bad based on your framework of morality.
What it really shows is that he is incapable of acting in that situation without mentally cheating on his wife.
I suppose we should be proud of him that he can be so aware and honest about his weakness, and not let the allure of money put him in a tempting situation.
>What it really shows is that he is incapable of acting in that situation without mentally cheating on his wife.
he doesn't want his wife and kids to see him with another woman
But he's fine with his wife and kids seeing him as a violent, murderous criminal.
But not sexy. That would be a lie too far.
Better my kid thinks I killed a man than thinks I slept with someone.
The analogy would be like your kids seeing you point an actual loaded gun at someone's head instead of a fake gun. When you act out a sex scene it's your real bodies, you're wearing very little, you have to kiss and grab and grind and thrust with your real bodies over and over until you get the shot.
>like your kids seeing you point an actual loaded gun at someone's head instead of a fake gun.
There is no difference between these for your kid watching the scene on TV, idiot.
Again - the difference is in the man's mind, because he is weak and because he is controllable by pussy.
Jesus told him if his hand were to sin he should cut it off, so that's what he's doing.
Cant control his hand, so he is cutting it off.
>There is no difference between these for your kid watching the scene on TV, idiot.
That's why it's an analogy moron, there's no perfect analog. The fact that there is no analog with violence is part of my point, I'm presenting how it might look if you could make the point with violence, but you really can't. Presumably your kids know the difference between fantasy and reality and know that none of the people are in danger, but unless if they use CGI for the whole sex scene, they also know that's really daddy rubbing his practically nude body against some starlet.
>That's why it's an analogy moron, there's no perfect analog.
No, the analogy is fine, it just disproves you. The idea that it's out of consideration for your kid that you are fine being portrayed as a psycho killer is fine but being portrayed as capable of sex is taboo is nonsense. If your kid cant figure out that the sex scene is acting, they are too stupid to figure out the gun is fake.
No, the analog isn't fine. Pretending to do a sex act as they're shown in movies requires actually doing a more minor sex act in real life which is obvious on film. I'm not saying no actor should do them but it should be the actor's decision whether they do it. Turning it into this bizarre mental strength test just isn't necessary.
>No, my analogy sucks!
lol
> Pretending to do a sex act as they're shown in movies requires actually doing a more minor sex act in real life which is obvious on film.
Violent scenes actually take violence, anon.
It's not all CGId.
you are only proving my point - that christianity has your mind so muddled you think acting out a kiss is worse and more evil than acting out murder.
>>No, my analogy sucks!
>lol
We've been over this. I'm demonstrating that the analogy of violence to sex, while you can get it closer, is not perfect. The analogy that YOU made, by the way.
>Violent scenes actually take violence, anon.
Yeah but he hasn't made a lifelong commitment and trust bond with someone to never punch anyone else.
>Christianity
Not a Christian. Just don't see why you have such a problem with an actor making this decision for himself. Who cares what belief system got him there. Is loyalty to your wife so bad? There are actors who don't take violent roles by the way, do you have problems with them?
>I'm demonstrating that the analogy of violence to sex, while you can get it closer, is not perfect.
Then you are wildly off topic. The analogy you gave was about simulation. Being focused on what is simulated isnt the point.
We can get back to that.
I was never making an analogous comparison betrween sex and violence.
I was saying BOTH are sins, and to say he wont do one out of moral objection but not the other is the stupid double standards that Christianity produces.
You then made a very bad analogy and tried to say it's because there is less simulation in one and not the other, which is wrong.
>Just don't see why you have such a problem with an actor making this decision for himself.
Then you arent paying attention, whic h is obvious. I gave my take. You can go back and read it, or you can ask what it was again because you didnt read it last time, or you can deny that I did and look like an idiot when I copy where I did.
>Then you arent paying attention, whic h is obvious. I gave my take. You can go back and read it, or you can ask what it was again because you didnt read it last time, or you can deny that I did and look like an idiot when I copy where I did.
Haven't read the whole thread and I don't care to but I believe you, happy?
>happy?
Sure, it's fun to laugh at him, but I can laugh at him and you.
You're very uncharitable and I think it comes from insecurity and a need to be better than everyone
Projection.
You are wrong in your assessments and are foolishly arrogant about your ability to ascertain people's character over Cinemaphile, a judgemental tendency that comes from those that actually do feel better than everyone.
>Jesus told him if his hand were to sin he should cut it off, so that's what he's doing.
>Cant control his hand, so he is cutting it off.
That's not what he's doing. That would require him to first cheat and then stop doing sex scenes. Another thing the Bible says is to avoid placing yourself in a situation where you might sin. This is more akin to that. T. not a Christian but you should at least know what you're talking about.
>That would require him to first cheat
>but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
As I said - Christians are brainwashed.
>What it really shows is that he is incapable of acting in that situation without mentally cheating on his wife.
Imagine thinking that a married man rolling around naked while making out with a woman who isn't his wife is only wrong if he "mentally" cheats (whatever the frick that means).
Congratulations on being brainwashed by israelites into accepting degeneracy.
Would you like it if your wife/girlfriend kissed another guy for an acting role?
If yes, you're cucked.
If no, you're a hypocrite.
Pick one
Darling, it’s called acting. Might as well be mad when someone plays a married person and holds hands with their fake-significant other.
I wouldnt like it if my wife/gf was an actor because no one with class should be lying for their profession.
If HE doesnt like acting, he should quit not be a petty b***h. This is the same as the b***hes that sleep around to get roles then complain of what it takes to be an actor.
Boo hoo. Do your job then go frick your wife, or stop trying to be an actor.
Thoughbeit that sex scenes actually are necessary for a retelling of le morte d'Arthur, or the matter of Britain in general.
No problem with pretending to kill people and take and sell drugs, though...
He always gets punished for it, though.
So get kicked in the balls after the sex scene.
Ultimately its his career but I laugh at his decision making.
Sex bad violence good.
Ummm.....you have to cheat on your wife to prove you're not a heckin fasharino
His logic is that it's fantasy. Make believe. Everyone he kills on TV gets back up after the director yells cut. Simulating sex with a partner who isn't your wife isn't as clear cut.
>Simulating sex with a partner who isn't your wife isn't as clear cut.
For the idiot, THIS is what mentally cheating means. And yes - israelite taint is what fricks up Christians. The whole thing is a thousand year psy-op to destroy Roman and European values.
A man dedicated to his values? In Hollywood? Diamond in a stack of hay here.
Use body doubles. With current technology it should be trivial to deep fake if your so artless that you can't shoot/edit around it.
Has a sex scene ever added anything to a movie besides titillation? I'm not even a zoomer, but I've felt they were necessary.
Excalibur's sex scenes are 100% vital to the movie.
Yes. When done right and it serves the story sex does add substance. Lars van Trier’s Nymphomaniac needs all the sex scenes or it wouldn’t work.
It's a natural part of everyday life and it's just like depicting anything else in life.
It's just kind of something everyone can relate to, it's like depicting scoring the big touchdown, or your first kiss with your highschool sweetheart, or all your friends throwing you a party, or the birth of your first son. These are things everyone has experienced so it just kind of helps the world feel more real.
Ok where are the pooping scenes
>Dumb and Dumber
>Pulp Fiction
>Pink Panther 3
>Weird Science
Poop scenes are shown in movies.
>willfully block yourself off from a large amount of mainstream roles
>"HURRRR THEY'RE BLACKLISTING MEEEE!!!"
He's not complaining. Just stating facts. He works with Angel Studios now and they are profitable.
>hey i want to be an actor but i refuse to act, knowing its all pretend
Hollywood actors never stay in a life long relationship. Have you ever wondered why?
Fricking idiot.
you'd be surprised (because you're stupid) how much of acting is just "actually do this thing"
do you think when people kiss during a scene they're not actually kissing or something
He looks like a Neal, he has a Neal face and his face is what a Neal should look like.
sex scenes are almost always completely unnecessary and movies that include them are actually worse because of it. however female nudity always enhances kinos without exception.
I think the sex scene in the original terminator works on a number of levels and is necessary to the story. Most movies are not the terminator though.
Truth. Sex scenes are pointless and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to feel watching them. Happy? Aroused? Jealous? Nothing? Nudity can actually enhance a movie in some cases, or at least for me it does. It's less cringeworthy for sure.
I spy with my little eye, a couple homosexuals who haven’t seen Cronenberg’s movie Crash.
I'm inclined to go with they are generally unnecessary and maybe even detract a little. Overall most things we do day to day other people might be nearby, except that, so it's odd to watch. And it's not even sexy, just weird humping in the blankets. You might as well make it more graphic like Versailles if you're going to do it. Overall there's better ways to show something sexy if that's the point. Besides that I rather see a neighbor hear a couple have sex after they were informed somehow the relationship is going poorly and hearing that means they made up.
what is it with these fricking zoomers and sex scenes
grow up incel
hes also a pretty shit actor
Good. I lost ALL respect for john cena when he started doing it.
get the dad from Euphoria to be his stunt wiener then, they kind of look the same
Cuck grow a pair
sex scenes shouldn't be in movies in the first place.
they're all pointless
A hundred times this, if I'm not having it then nobody should be even if it's just on screen simulation.
>he refuses to perform sex scenes
Has he tried acting them instead?
But genocidal maniac Damien Darkh is okay?
Even Darkh loved his family and didn't have sex outside of marriage.
but he still plays married man and stuff in lots of movies and tv shows.
i think it's more disrespectful than doing random sex scene. pretending to be married to 100 different random women
>pretending to be married to 100 different random women
for him, it was tuesday
trad husbando
I don't understand this joke. Acting is work. Like any other. Imagine that a plumber refuses to turn the nuts out of respect for his mother. Or the electrician will refuse to repair the electrical panel out of respect for his father. Complete idiocy.
>Imagine that a plumber refuses to turn the nuts out of respect for his mother. Or the electrician will refuse to repair the electrical panel out of respect for his father.
cant tell if this is bait or some people are really this moronic.
It's more like a doctor who refuses to do heart surgery on women because he'd have to touch a titty.
Does he think God doesn’t know what acting is
More like his wife doesnt know, and it sounds better to be pussy-whipped by God than by your wife.
>I want to go back to a trad society of values and mores
>Whaaaaat he doesn't even wan't to pretend to cheat on his wife? lmao what a pussy
>I want to go back to a trad society of values and mores
Who said that? Do you say that? I didnt say that.
If that's what you want, then you should be for shutting down all of hollywood, no matter what the scene is.
Has he quit acting for a good, trad job?
Or did he go to a company that just scams the religious out of money for shitty productions?
>All the people calling him based
Why do zoomers hate sex scenes so badly?
nobody's falling for your shit, you despicable israelite
I wanted this guy to play Judge Holden but I think he's too old now
