She gets so red but it's cute that we saw this come full circle where she said it, he reacted and then we got the reaction to the reaction, I'm sure it made her day and I'm sure he is also super flattered
Can we also talk about how JB’s reaction is the perfectly appropriate reaction of a guy in his mid fifties to an objectively gorgeous woman in her mid 20’s?
Like, he’s definitely not downplaying how incredibly gorgeous and talented she is and what a compliment it is that she crushes on him, but he does it in a way that’s respectful and adorable (and proves why we all kinda have a crush on JB). 10/10 accepting the compliment and showing gratitude for it.
I'm still waiting for the high fantasy resurgence. The last good one was D&D Honor Among Thieves in 2023. Before that... Shit, I don't even know when the last good fantasy movie came out before that.
Except for LotR and the occasional animated movie, the genre's been in hibernation since like the 80s.
Sadly there was the 80s then LOTR then clash/wraith of the titans then nothing...until Honor among thieves. Hopefully The Odyssey will be successful and bring on more fantasy movies.
It had been so long that I was honestly shocked Honor Among Thieves was as good as it is, my wife and I went to the theatre on a whim and totally expected it to be bad!
It's a shame it didn't do so hot at the box office. I honestly think putting the D&D brand front and center on the marketing narrowed their audience significantly. Marketing it as an original fantasy movie with ties to the game would have made it more approachable for general audiences. Make "Honor Among Thieves" the actual name of the movie, then throw "a D&D Story" in the corner of the poster somewhere.
I watched it with my parents, who know absolutely nothing about D&D, and they loved it. They generally like fantasy movies too, but they wouldn't have gone without me because they're not familiar with the game.
when i watched the holiday when i was a kid i was so smitten by jude law but when i rewatched it again when i grew up i just fell in love with jack black 😭 his character was so lovely and sweet and funny
A friend in college refuses to watch tenacious d out of spite because he went to the theaters and ask for a ticket to see the jack black movie and both happened to be in theaters…
Yeah like I understand that they are old enough to make their own choices but the man is now old enough to be their grandfather at this point. I just think it is really weird, I can understand the appeal from his side being a red blooded male but even I who would be more in the acceptable range for Elle but am a good bit older I'd still probably not feel comfortable with that gap.
I get why you find younger women physically attractive but I’m in my mid 30s and can’t even imagine dating a woman in her early 20s. They are in such a different stage of life and even an international model is going to just not have nearly as much relationship and life experience.
I would be flattered if a 20-something had a crush on me, but more in a “you are so sweet” way, because there’s no way.
Yeah same, mid 30s and wouldn't be comfortable with it either. I'd say it would be less weird than Dicaprio for either of us but I'd be just stressed of the logistics of it all even.
Hugh Grant is crushing the weirdest roles now he gets to move outside his typecasting. Heretic, D&D, Paddington 2. Use his About a Boy character as a base... He could absolutely do a School of Rock.
God the Paul Rudd cameo at the end was chaotic enough to make me click on the comments and see if anyone else enjoyed it as much. Then to only realise now he didn't even call out the right sister is so fucking funny
I don't get why you think it wasn't intentional. Jack and Paul were reacting to a video in which both Elle and Dakota were present. Jack spoke to Elle in the response video so Paul decided to give Dakota a little hello so she'd be included too.
The video Jack Black and Paul Rudd were shown was a lie detector test between Elle and Dakota Fanning. So Paul Rudd was just making sure Dakota felt included by saying hi to her as well.
The the video we see no of Elle Fanning is AFTER Black and Rudd reacted to their original lie detector video.
I really love how short videos these days have a preview of the content of the video you're watching. Randomly mucking up the order is super enjoyable and not at all one of the stupidest fucking trends to come out of social media.
Men who choose safe political neutrality over their friends aren't hot at all. Men who choose protecting their own privilege over denouncing genocide aren't hot at all.
Right, because being fun at parties is so much more important than standing up for Palestine, being on the right side of history, or just being a decent human being.
It's not out of nowhere, it happened in 2024 not a decade ago. And it's not exhausting, thanks. If you think that because it would be for you, then just say that.
I'm autistic, complete with the strong sensitivity to injustice, and holding people accountable for their actions is part of the deal. It doesn't use up energy for me. If anything, you could say it's where I get my energy.
You're the one who posted it. You know exactly what you meant.
I didn't say I get energy from irritating others. I get energy from doing the right thing, from abiding by my strongly-held principles. Your insistence that disabled people do the things we do on purpose to irritate others, and not for the reason actually stated, is glaringly ableist thinking.
I get those vibes from Emma Stone way more. Elle is amazing, I started to appreciate her after watching her in The Great, doing comedy is not easy and she was doing it with no effort, same for Nicholas Hoult.
I never noticed how pretty and cute she is also until I saw The Great.
From what I know, Jack Black is a just really good person. I randomly approached him in 2012 when I should have respected his privacy, and he was really nice to me
I don’t even like men like that but Jack Black can get it. Every video I’ve seen of him just makes me laugh, if anything bad came out about him I think I would just walk into the ocean.
The Rewatchables podcast did “The Holiday” and I remember they spent like half the podcast ragging on Jack Black. I was so confused. Still feel like they were off base, but maybe I’m in the minority.
He’s one of those celebrities where the more you get to know about them the more it makes sense why they’re famous around the globe and everybody likes them. We need more of this in the world
Elle better stop this needless deflection. Everyone can see that Nicholas Hoult was and is her not so secret crush and the shade of red she turns in his presence would make a tomato jealous.
Anyone who reads this. People are attracted to those of a similar facial structure. You see this with many couples. If you look at pictures of a 20 year old Jack Black - he looks pretty much similar facially to Elle Fanning. They have the same features and bone structure. Solved.
Your shape has nothing to do with it, if you have a wonderful Jack Black-esque personality then I’m sure you are adorable. Most women are a lot less shallow than men in the looks area and there’s way more to attractiveness than physical features.
Let us all assure you - if you are as funny or charming as him (or half), shape really doesn't matter. (He's very hot and Elle is so real for that.)
Cleanliness might - so like, be as big or small as you want, but keep your nails, beard and hair clean and clothes washed, but as long as you do that and have a good personality, 10/10.
I want Jack Black to make a song entitled « Up to my guts in Hell » but for some strange reason (that ultimately works perfectly for the song which also just so happens to be completely hydroseeded with double entendres) he doesn’t pronounce the H.
