Alan Rickman in space quest

A bit more sad: Sir Ian McKellen having a breakdown during the making of the hobbit.

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 29 points 5 months ago

Wow....that is really really upsetting....

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 29 points 5 months ago

Production of The Hobbit trilogy was a fucking mess. You should watch Lindsey Ellis' video series about it.

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

Idk if I wanna man.....the world is depressing enough right now. Can you just give me the teddybear TL;DW?

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I don't think I can do it justice tbh. It's a 3 part series with total runtime of just over 100 minutes.

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

That'd cover it.

[-] ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

Is there more context to this?

[-] MrGerrit@feddit.nl 20 points 5 months ago

If I remember correctly Sir Ian McKellen was saying something to himself like: "this isn't why I became a actor" commenting on that everything is green screen and you hardly act off against another actor.

Here's a link to an article about it for more context.

The sheer audacity!

Basically, the skin of melons is called a rind. The “outta your rind” sentence is a play on words on “outta your mind”. Watermelon doesn’t think that this play on words is good enough, and starts to doubt his time or effort to take part in this acting job because it seems that Watermelon especially went to theatre school in London to prepare for this scene. Watermelon has an existential crisis while the rest of the people involved in recording this scene are confused about Watermelons reaction.

I dont think Watermelon went to theatre school in London just to prepare for this scene, just that they think they're a better actor than this

[-] Mbourgon@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Agreed, should have been “out of your gourd”.

Apple tv is getting desperate.

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 8 points 5 months ago

Tbf, a pun-based show with gratuitous fourth wall breaking is the kind of desperate I would actually love 😁

[-] TheRealLinga@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

That sounds like Paradise P.D. in a nutshell

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 5 months ago

How did they stand on the cliff if it was just a background? Are harnesses involved? Sounds over-engineered.

Talking fruit, however, is totally normal.

Fun fact: Cantaloupe 🍈 is called "Sugarmelon“ in German.

[-] VanHalbgott@lemmus.org 5 points 5 months ago

Clever take on Hollywood itself!

[-] 342345@feddit.de 5 points 5 months ago

I feel strangely meloncholic now.
