Giancarlo Esposito is the embodiment of quiet menace and commitment to character

As a native Spanish speaker, I can very much tell you that he had zero commitment to his spanish lines in bb. Apart from that... hats off, he is an excellent actor indeed.

I'm not native, by I speak a bit, and there was something about his lines that felt like someone who trained to say those exact words in that exact sequence, rather than someone that is actually fluent. Thanks for confirming.

I'm easily amused, but not many things make me laugh out loud. This did.

Also, my brother's first cat was named Galois. Would you like me to relay your contact details to him so you can reunite?

Shit, he is a good actor!

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

Expected a Rickroll, was still worth watching.

They should have included a banana for scale, so we can see how big that gun is.

Every decent actor & fan of theater pays tribute (or should) to Monty Python (Flying Circus in this case: In Defense Against Fresh Fruits.: https://youtu.be/NqDPsonOLCQ)

Los Hermanos Bananas

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Who the hell finds a random banana outside?

[–] tychosmoose@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (3 children)

To be fair it wasn't a random banana.

It was this specific banana.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

It is a gun.

[–] Moxie_empathizer@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

I'd bet in the US she would have had a higher probability of finding an actual gun.

That sounds like talk of someone who wouldn't pick up said banana

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And have my fingerprints all over it? No thanks.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 10 points 1 day ago

Bananas tend to grow outside after all.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Isn't that where they all come from?

I want this to be true so bad.

[–] cRazi_man@europe.pub 64 points 1 day ago (11 children)

The most unbelievable part is the fact that someone has just found an unattended and unclaimed banana in pristine condition.

[–] EffortlessEffluvium@lemmy.zip 42 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yeah, I mean that's like finding 10 bucks just lying about!

Who’s kissing roses?

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago

The crossover though is pretty common. There's always money in the banana stand.

My wife has, on more than one occasion, picked up and brought home "parking lot bananas" from work.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Make sure she doesn't plug them into any computers; that's a common pentesting technique.

Unfortunately, it is actually a banana

That's Pierce Hawthorn's brother!

He was awesome in The Residence too if you haven't seen it.

[–] PumpkinEscobar@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Also, community. Just a couple episodes but he had a really funny/interesting straight-man energy that he did well
