Kieran Culkin on the "Variety Awards Circuit" podcast 27th April 2023:

Host: Also, I have to ask you [about] Tom and Greg, man.

Kieran: (laughing)

Host: I mean, it’s Jack and Ennis [the two lead characters in Brokeback Mountain]. It’s the most beautiful thing. It’s the most beautiful love story on television. (laughing)

Kieran: It’s pretty great, yeah.

Host: It’s great. And I know you auditioned– or wanted, or read for Cousin Greg?

Kieran: No, they sent it to me to read for Greg, and I knew that I wasn’t.

Host: You knew.

Kieran: I knew right– before even reading the first line of dialogue that said, "Greg, 26" and I think I was like 36 or something like that, and I was like, okay, well the age is wrong.

Host: You have aged remarkably though, by the way.

Kieran: Why thank you. [Explains about how he ended up asking to read for Roman instead; the rest is history]

Kieran: But [back to] Tom and Greg, it worked out well. Tom and Greg, while we shot the pilot, you know, the way that Adam McKay is very like, fluid with the cameras and sort of– it’s very alive. We’re at the softball game, and he yells out to the cameras like, "go to Tom and Greg!" and very far long lenses, cameras turn, and they know to do a scene that they hadn’t rehearsed yet, which was the, "Will you kiss me?" (pauses) That thing at the very beginning that was like, "Will you kiss me, Greg?" They hadn’t rehearsed it. They hadn’t blocked it, they just started doing it, because it was like, I guess there’s still more film left, go, do that part! And I watched that from the other side of the field, and went; Oh, this thing. These two guys is– this is the show.

Host: Oh my god, that’s awesome.

Visiting their old form room

Nick: This is where we were the day I said "hi" and you fell in love with me.

Charlie: Nick.

Nick: The day you said "hi" and I became obsessed with you forever.

this feels like an awkward time to bring up the actual exact quote is “what if I told you I stopped pressing buttons?” (Flashback 808). no that. we added the that. btw

"of course i keep in touch with lewis. he's my bestie"

[yardsards]

"i cannot tell what was a good day and what felt like a good day because that's how you wanted me to feel" "when i see your face, resentment is all that i am" "was devo afraid of the dark? ...not yet" "she never called me devo" "the hand of devotion" just fuck me up okay

man did i really last post a fic in february 2023...wild

[edge-oftheworld]

truly nothing is as wild as youtube comments on top of the people infodumping their entire life stories you'll have people saying stuff like 'they're an excellent band! they all have severe depression unfortunately :(' like okay 5sos psychiatrist. does this inference of yours in any way impact their abilities as artists? please please just be normal about all things mental health

i know i've made this post before but my absolute favorite line in me3 is at the start of the rannoch arc where shepard is talking to the quarian admirals and goes "your homeworld? you mean rannoch?" because man, it's just the dumbest line ever. like obviously the doylist explanation for why shepard says this is that the writers realized they'd forgotten to give the quarian homeworld a name in the first two games of the trilogy, and put in a quick line establishing it when it became plot relevant. but from a watsonian perspective it's absolutely insane. like. shepard, a distinguished military commander acting in a diplomatic role, is in a meeting with the quarian admirals, the highest tier of government officials the quarians have, and is still kinda shaky on what their homeworld is called.

Slightly insane how every single article that mentions Jeremy Strong‘s acting says he‘s a method actor when he‘s literally explained that he’s not a method actor in every interview he‘s done since that new yorker profile lmao

re:the briggs arc I cannot handle the amount of quiet elegance with which the brief olivier-raven conflict eviscerates the concept of social darwinism, without a single on-page debate or hamhanded moral
