talkin w/ the homies this morning in the gym


Sep 8, 2022, 10:25 AM

and yeah stubborn_tiger®, I'm comin' for them pecs brah

but my position is that Ari Gold is the greatest character in cinematic or TV series history. to the point, that I may start re-watching Entourage to sharpen up my recollection of his zingers in relation to dealing with my life and idiots on a day to day basis.



so jounge, who's your #1 character ever? TV series or movies

Respectfully here...


Sep 8, 2022, 12:15 PM

although the acting is a key part of this conversation, I think some of the characters you mentioned, and ones that are out there, were great b/c of the acting job. But if you look at the character themselves, I wouldn't say they're needle moving dudes / chicks. know what I'm trying to say?

Like, Forrest Gump was a horrible character. Phenomenal, world class acting job...great story...all that was great, but he's horrible character. I'd argue Ledger's Joker as well, despite being one of my favorite bad guys.

Also, to meat least, there's fewer movie characters that can compete with solid TV show characters as you don't get to spend as much with em, so to say. I agree tho that Doc Holliday and Jules Winnfield were bad asses
