      I don’t know how you are able to say that with a straight face.

      Muppets Movie - Muppet Origin Story

      Muppets Caper - Muppets but jewel heist

      Muppets Take Manhattan - Muppets run a Musical

      Muppets Christmas Carol - Really?

      Muppets Treasure Island - Really?

      Muppets From Space - REALLY?

      The Muppets - The only ‘normal’ movie and it references all the nonsense from the previous ones

      Muppets Most Wanted - Criminal muppets

      Sir, every single Muppet movie has a freakin’ gimmick.

    An entire movie with half being lip synced live action sounds awful to make. That’s a lot of lip syncing.

    But I’m sure there’s a bunch of tools and talent out there that could make this happen. And it’d be a fantastic movie.

        There’s lots out there about him being a creep behind the scenes on GOT, him being a drunk asshole on aqua man, him treating staff like shit on Minecraft, i myself have a personal experience of him fucking over an entire con crowd. Lots of stories also about him being a dick to restaurant staff and using the “do you know who I am?” Line

        Look it up, he’s one of those guys who uses celebrity to treat service staff like shit, was a creepy asshole behind the scenes on GOT to the female costars, drunk and yelling on the set of aqua man, there’s also a new story out about him being an asshole to the crew of Minecraft

          Look it up

          Translation: It’s utter nonsense and I cannot find any reputable source to back up my claims.

          Bro, you’re making the accusation here. I’m not going to go around and do your legwork for you. I’m just going to assume what you said is bullshit. ESPECIALLY when co-stars from Game of Thrones have said the dead opposite. Emilia Clarke has come out and said he was a joy to work with. The closest accusation I can think of was some extremely badly judged joke he made in 2011 that he openly apologiezd for.

          Also, I heard about the Minecraft thing. It was from a single person who said they saw it happening to someone else. Their accusation was that they’re yelling. I am not going to be jumping on a bandwagon of “Fuck this dude” unless I know the reason as to what was going on. Like two actors got given a ton of shit for yelling at people in the past and I am perfectly fine with those.

          Why? Because sometimes yelling at someone isn’t abuse, it’s telling them off for fucking everything up for hundreds of other people. Christian Bale losing his mind at a dude who openly walked through a filming zone when they had very specific timing to do it, were under pressure like a motherfucker, it requires resets and that dude had been told off before about his actions? I’m fine with that. Tom Cruise yelling at someone for endangering the entire filming crew of a movie during COVID? I’m fine with that. I have no idea if I’m fine with Momoa doing it or not because I don’t have the context and neither do you.

          Put up or shut up. I am so tired of this gossipy horseshit of “Oh he’s a terrible person because of <something I’m half remembering from years ago>” and considering all your other comments in here, that’s all your accusations are. Half remembered.

            Can I ask - what’s this about the filming conditions for Terminator Salvation requiring specific timing and being dangerous? This is the first I’ve heard of that.

              That’s on me. For some reason I remembered the yelling thing as being during a desert scene. There’s another behind the scenes bit of trivia I’m just remembering about a scene elsewhere in the movie. Edited

            I couldn’t care less about this actor. Don’t even know who he is.

            That said, yelling at people you work with is never appropriate man. That’s verbal abuse and “they screwed up” is not an excuse. As the power differential grows between two coworkers, it becomes even less acceptable.

              Really stupid take, given context. I’ve seen people do shit that could kill their coworkers or bystanders. A good yelling at is the least that’s deserved, sometimes.

              Nah. Hard disagree. If you’re doing something stupid and are told politely several times to stop doing it but then continue doing it? Especially when your actions are wasting thousands of dollars and putting people at risk due to the environment you’re in? You deserve to be yelled at.

              If you believe your own personal decision gets to trump the financial and literal health of someone when everyone had to make extreme sacrifices to be able to do this and you just didn’t want to? You deserve to be yelled at.

              Politeness has its limit.

                Or, you know, you handle it like a healthy, well adjusted, adult with anger management skills. That’s also an option.

                If someone can’t handle mistakes being made without screaming, they have no business being in management and need to spend a little more time in therapy.

                  You’re assuming they haven’t tried that road. Again and again and again.

                  Or, you know, they value human life enough to actually get emotional instead of being clinical as hell.

                  I’m sorry but if I work somewhere and find out that a coworker nearly killed me after being politely told not to a half dozen times, I’m going to be furious. I’m going to become murderous if I then find out management were super polite and wore kid gloves about the dude nearly killing other people after they’ve been told a half dozen times that they’re nearly killing people.

                  I agree that yelling shouldn’t be the first thing but there is 100% a point in which case you deserve to be yelled at if you’re ENDANGERING LIVES or you have repeatedly been told to stop wasting everyones time and money when you’re out filming in the middle of the fuckin’ desert.

                  Valuing manners over teaching someone a lesson so someone else doesn’t get killed is never an argument you will successfully make with me. Just a reason for me to not trust you to do what needs to be done if all hell were to go loose.

            You want me to gather al the links you can easily look up on google just so you can ignore them? That’s why I don’t post it and tell you to look it up because it’s not a secret and it’s all over. If you want to cheer and like an abusive dude and ignore all his bad and downvote people who call out his awfulness fine, but that’s why it’s a waste of my time, because you’re dug in regardless of what I put in front of you.

            I could gather the links since again his bullshit is all over, but you’re just gonna ignore the sources

            Here’sa few anyways although I know you will shit on it and defend your bro

              Your first link is an opinion of someone else’s post. That post being the vague Minecraft accusation I mentioned prior.

              And your second link is the badly made joke he did in 2011 that I mentioned.

              Your personal anecdote also doesn’t reflect reality.

              As stated, you have no credible link you can share which is why you told me to do it. You are aware that you don’t have anything remotely close to resembling proof of your accusation so you’re being vague and dismissive.

              But youre also incapable of admitting fault which is why you’re doubling down on your accusations of him while not providing any evidence for it.

              Go away.

                Well there you go, you did exactly what I said you would do. Keep worshipping toxic bros, what do I care?

                P.s Stamets would be ashamed of your general aggressive demeanour towards people calling out toxic masculinity, and worship of shitty men

                  Well, first off, the opinion of someone who spreads gossip means absolutely nothing to me.

                  Second, I’m not aggressive towards people calling that out. I’m aggressive towards people who lie, spread false information, have no reputable sources for their claims but still insist that they be taken seriously and factually. I asked you at the start of this if you had proof of him being a douchebag or you just didn’t like him. The correct answer to that was “I just don’t like him.” You do not have proof.

                  Third, if you’re talking about the real Paul Stamets then I don’t care about him. He is anti-union. Couldn’t care less. If you’re talking about the character, then you know literally nothing about the show as Stamets would have been more dismissive of you. If anything, I was more polite.

                  You should really sit down.

        Long story but I went to a con once where he fucked over every fan who wanted to see him. Additionally there are stories out there of him being a complete “do you know who I am??” Style asshole to regular people and service workers out there. By all accounts he’s a dick, even the shit he used to do backstage on game of thrones is creepy as fuck and anyone who doesn’t look like him would have been canceled by now

        Just recently there are news stories about him being an asshole to crew on the Minecraft set, being drunk on aqua man and acting like a jackass. He’s a roid monkey so it’s no surprise

            From what I remember he made a rape joke like “im so glad I get to rape beautiful women for a living” or something, also reports of him acting bts in ways that a less attractive man would get called “creepy” over.

            If you google “monos is an asshole” im sure you’ll get lots of results. Lots of fan interaction stories.

            My personal one, went to con, wife wanted a pic with momoa. Most expensive celeb to get a pic with. Halfway through the lineup they sell out. 10 minutes later his team announces that all buys have been cancelled and people have to rebuy, but now at double the price. Huge dick move, fleecing his fans.
