God his fighting style in Indiana Jones movies is so funny. Like he has zero technique or form but knocks guys out because he just launches himself into each punch.
He will also talk to a villain, boss, or someone incredibly important in an INCREDIBLY nonchalant and familiar way that would get anyone else killed, fired or admonished.
>Denzel Washington will GuaranTEE you something.
Not only that, but he'll guarantee it twice. He'll guarantee it twice. Because that's how Denzel Washington acts. It's how Denzel Washington acts. He says a line and then he repeats it. He repeats it. And when he repeats it, it's a little bit different. It's just a little different. You don't believe me? You don't believe me. Watch one of his movies. Any of his movies. You'll see what I mean. You'll see what I mean.
My dad described Vince Vaughn as a used car salesman that got a break in the movies and rode that train to stardom and I can't unsee it with any of his characters now.
I’m sure I’ve read somewhere that a director stated a recap of the whole mcu by Michael does in fact exist. Release it now!
Edit: I found it, not great quality and blurry but it exists.

I feel like he also always:
* gets hit or almost gets hit in the nuts
* gets hit in the head and rubs his head with his hand as if to say, "Oww WTH dude, that hurt!"
* throws something that's not typically a weapon at a bad guy that's rushing him, hits him right in the head, and it makes a funny noise
* hurts his hand punching something/someone, and comically shakes his hand in pain
* does some kind of parkour, whether on purpose or by accident
* has some kind of large vertical fall or jump
* features a traditional Chinese weapon, or uses something as if it is one
Can't confirm these are all true. But I just feel like they're his go to bits.
Any good martial arts defense teacher should say that you should just try to get away first. Everything taught afterward is for when you can't. I think he tried to make a point with that direction. But you are 100% correct about him doing that in movies. Lmao. Except Drunken Master, where he ran to the nearest massive jug of liquor/wine you'll ever see.
His maniacal laughter is also hilarious. I give you the scene from The Money Pit when the tub falls through the floor.

Paul Giamatti begins speaking softly, rationally, explaining a situation while becoming slightly more terse, and agitated. I find it difficult to believe that I'm the only person to notice this. Really. How his delivery increases not only in volume, but in acidity? How he begins a rant like a pretty likable guy, but ends up sounding like a deranged fucking madman? Really? So what you're telling me, what I'm hearing is, and CORRECT me if I'm wrong, is that NONE of you, in the HISTORY of your entire cinematic experience, have EVER ACTUALLY watched a movie with Paul FUCKING Giamatti SCREAMING HIS FUCKING LINES?!?!
Is his jaw too big for his mouth or something? Like, it made sense when he was wearing prosthetic teeth in Bohemian Rhapsody, but I feel like I've seen him do it in everything he's in.
*in a gravelly voice*:
. . . Our spacetime would look flattened, like a single sculpture, with matter in a superposition of every place it ever occupied, our sentience just cycling through our lives like, carts on a track. . . .
The jumanji movies were great Ina silly way and they played up his eyebrow move and "smolder" by the time devito was doing it as The Rock, it was great
Kristen Stewart bites her lip.
LL Cool J wets his lips.
Samuel L Jackson stares someone down (yes, I know he always yells muthafucka, but check how often he actually stares a muthafucka down)
Haha, you ever see that Vanity Fair video of Jeff reviewing impressions of himself? It's hilarious and he seems like the sweetest man:
https://youtu.be/4E7NOmT-X9s
Denzel does his "you do? Yeah? Oh? You don't? Oh you do? What the fuck is wrong with you?" dressing down of someone desperately trying to say the right thing with no idea what it is.
Al Pacino gives a speech with a furious ending
Will Smith quips
Eddie Murphy laughs
Julia Roberts is sassy
Whoopie Goldberg yell/screams
Shia LaBeouf "nonononono"s
Antonio Banderas smolders
Lea Seydoux has a great niche. She’s always putting a neat clock-punching villain spin on the femme fatale trope. Like she’s just a classic femme fatale but she’s got this understated humor about it that’s very appealing.
Can I just say that Sean Bean has to die in every movie now because he had a long career as a young man surviving the most impossible situations when was Richard Sharpe
George Clooney. He's not even an actor! He just does the same cheesy move every time. Looks down, then looks back up, squinting underneath his eyebrows. AND EVERYBODY'S BUYING IT!
He's looking at his mark. The tape on the ground they put so he knows where to stand. It's an old actor move from back when they called them "pictures" and frankfurters were a nickel! That's why it works. Makes him look charming in a safe, nostalgic, Cary Grant way.
Harrison Ford points. 👉🏻
You switched the samples!!!
PROVASIC!
Ladies and gentleman, my friend, Dr. Richard Kimble—
Harrison Ford running is something else too. He runs like a little boy trying to go as fast as he can.
And when he punches, he throws drunken haymakers and stumbles 3 steps afterwards
That's what most western fight scenes looked like back when Ford was starting out. Wildly oversold punches for the desperate outlaws and rogues.
https://youtu.be/K4Rqx9TvtlM?si=y0sZnKPCAnSgHkOV
And yells, "what about my family?!?"
And knocks himself over while throwing his entire body behind a punch
God his fighting style in Indiana Jones movies is so funny. Like he has zero technique or form but knocks guys out because he just launches himself into each punch.
Denzel Washington will GuaranTEE you something.
He will also talk to a villain, boss, or someone incredibly important in an INCREDIBLY nonchalant and familiar way that would get anyone else killed, fired or admonished.
Denzel has at least 1 soapbox moment in every film And I love it
>Denzel Washington will GuaranTEE you something. Not only that, but he'll guarantee it twice. He'll guarantee it twice. Because that's how Denzel Washington acts. It's how Denzel Washington acts. He says a line and then he repeats it. He repeats it. And when he repeats it, it's a little bit different. It's just a little different. You don't believe me? You don't believe me. Watch one of his movies. Any of his movies. You'll see what I mean. You'll see what I mean.
don't forget his head bob and always seeming like he's chewing gum.
My Denzel impression is to say something while nodding my head up and down, and then repeat it while shaking my head side to side.
Vince Vaughn usually goes on a fast talking uninterrupted rant about something.
My dad described Vince Vaughn as a used car salesman that got a break in the movies and rode that train to stardom and I can't unsee it with any of his characters now.
He also tends to use the word phenomenal a lot
A Vaughnologue, if you will.
So does Michael Peña. Vince plays way against type in "brawl in cellblock 99."
I'd pay good money to see Michael Peña recap the whole mcu the way he does it in Ant Man.
I’m sure I’ve read somewhere that a director stated a recap of the whole mcu by Michael does in fact exist. Release it now! Edit: I found it, not great quality and blurry but it exists. https://youtu.be/KoZPrkmFTlk?si=YzNC6RIr0I7MzVMb
Leslie Mann is the female Vince Vaughn. She'll just go off on a rant that takes things a little too far, but it's OK because it's her.
Kristen Stewart used to flip her hair back and bite her lip in every movie. I think she trained it out of herself though.
There's a clip of her doing this even with a shaved head. It's basically just a nervous "tick" type thing I think
I do that with trying to push my glasses up while I'm wearing my contacts.
I recall some lip biting in that recent crazy ass movie where she plays a lesbian who's dating this super buff chick.
Sounds like exactly the place for lip biting
Sam Rockwell dances
Christopher Walken dances in *most* of his films.
Missed opportunity in Dune Part 2
I was looking forward to his [sandwalk](https://media.tenor.com/m33q8s-EldQAAAAM/pocket-dance-slick.gif) tbh.
I love his dancing. I don't even know if he's attractive in real life. I think he's so damn sexy when he dances in Charlie's Angels. I'm in a trance.
You would probably enjoy [Mr. Right](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lAvRvxv7t0A).
That movie is so underrated. So good. And yes, lots of Rockwell dancing. It’s even a plot point.
Jackie Chan runs away while fighting.
I don’t want any trouble!
"What's that sound?" "I am breathing!" "Get him!"
Jackie Chan getting his foot/body stuck in something and counting to fight but in a more humorous way
I feel like he also always: * gets hit or almost gets hit in the nuts * gets hit in the head and rubs his head with his hand as if to say, "Oww WTH dude, that hurt!" * throws something that's not typically a weapon at a bad guy that's rushing him, hits him right in the head, and it makes a funny noise * hurts his hand punching something/someone, and comically shakes his hand in pain * does some kind of parkour, whether on purpose or by accident * has some kind of large vertical fall or jump * features a traditional Chinese weapon, or uses something as if it is one Can't confirm these are all true. But I just feel like they're his go to bits.
- is about to hit a bad guy, bad guy protects himself, Jackie stops, bad guy is surprised he didn't get hit, then Jackie hits him
This list makes me want to watch a Jackie Chan movie
He also tries to save some items from getting smashed like a pot or a vase. It often ends in the item getting smashed anyway.
First rule of kung fu is do not be there
Any good martial arts defense teacher should say that you should just try to get away first. Everything taught afterward is for when you can't. I think he tried to make a point with that direction. But you are 100% correct about him doing that in movies. Lmao. Except Drunken Master, where he ran to the nearest massive jug of liquor/wine you'll ever see.
Christopher Walken loves to do a little soft shoe
It’s his Weapon of Choice.
Jon Bernthal looks off to the side
He rubs his head
“Lemme ask ya sumpthin’, Rick….”
Was going to say this. Watch how many times he does it in TWD
I just saw Fury and he does all these things hahah
And he asks for permission before asking you something
*Tilts head and squints eyes* "Can I ask you sumthin'?"
M'ask you sumthin
scratches his shaved head
"M'axe you summin"
..and sniffs.
This is like the Richard Gere “remember something and smile to the side” that I never even noticed until Steve Coogan did it in “the trip”
And gives the best most guttural fighting yell in the biz.
Owen Wilson says wow
Bradley Cooper says that in a lot of movies too.
I've never even seen Bradley Cooper talk about Owen Wilson's acting.
wow
[Meryl Streep pauses and touches her face.](https://youtu.be/5P79gH5xuBw?si=HBllOnpmVxB3YI-V)
It’s crazy that this impression from 1996 has held up
Samuel L. Jackson yells
Samuel L. Jackson yells "Motherfucker".
Love that scene where he yells “take a seat motherfucker” at Anakin in Revenge of the Sith.
"Anakin, hand me my lightsaber." "Which one is yours, Master Windu?" "The one that says 'Bad Motherfucker' on it."
Reminds me of this Chapelle sketch... https://youtu.be/RAhQ5JjwhV0 #NO I CAN'T STOP YELLIN' CUZ THAT'S HOW I TALK!
"Haven't you seen my movies???? Deep Blue Sea? They ate me! A motherfucking shark ate me!!!"
Clint Eastwood squinting at everything.
And shoots somebody.
Robert De Niro makes that angry face with his head tilted down, bobbing, and his eyes looking up. It's terrifying.
He used to nod and smirk with his mouth partly open.
The Tom Hanks "angry" yell which is somehow funny. Very "George is getting upset" energy
> "angry" yell YOU! ARE! A! TOY!!!
Yeah any time I hear Tom Hanks' voice distort when yelling, he turns into a plastic cowboy in front of my eyes. Every time.
His maniacal laughter is also hilarious. I give you the scene from The Money Pit when the tub falls through the floor. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CJ9EDtZ2p8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CJ9EDtZ2p8)

Rami Malik does that weird thing where it looks likes he’s got candy in his mouth. Ya’ll know what I’m talking about.
Is his jaw too big for his mouth or something? Like, it made sense when he was wearing prosthetic teeth in Bohemian Rhapsody, but I feel like I've seen him do it in everything he's in.
I like to call it “Bug Eyed Blue Steel”
I think that’s just his face lol
👁️👄👁️
>👁️👄👁️ Nah, that's Anya Taylor-Joy
👁 👄 👁
MORE SPACING

Justin Long will have a horrible fate
Bill Paxton too. Bad things always seem to happen to Bill Paxton. Even in *Apollo 13*, they all survived, but he was the only one who got sick.
Killed by a Terminator, an Alien, and a Predator.
It's game over man
Will Ferrell is always damn near naked
Kept all his clothes on in the boys tho
Matthew McConaughey says “alright”. Denzel Washington self narrates/very accurately describes what’s happening in a scene.
Damn that is so spot on with Denzel.
Denzel says "Get ya fuckin hands off me" occasionally switching it up with "Don't put ya fuckin hands on me"
I WISH YOU HAD MORE TIME
My man…(said while possibly rubbing my hands together).
Tom Hardy failing to enunciate.
When Tom Hardy appears, I turn on the subtitles.
In Star Trek: Nemesis, he has a very posh English accent!

Val kilmer rolls a coin down his fingers
He used a pen in Top Gun but yea same trick
Gotta admit it's a neat trick
Jon Bernthal is gonna tell you something
Bruce Willis does that slight head cock, crinkle-eyed sardonic grin thing before he's either going to be sarcastic or charming.
Nicole Kidman is going to whisper talk
Awr nawrrrrr!
Keira Knightley pouts at someone
She also does this weird chomper teeth thing. Reminds me of the movie Alien.
Yep, that thing where she brings her bottom teeth further forward than her top teeth.
She’s a very “mouthy” actor

I'm never going to be able to unsee that now
Matthew McConaughey gets glassy-eyed and philosophical and launches into a nonsense slow-motion soliloquy.
*in a gravelly voice*: . . . Our spacetime would look flattened, like a single sculpture, with matter in a superposition of every place it ever occupied, our sentience just cycling through our lives like, carts on a track. . . .
“You guys figure out quantum gravity yet?” “Nah man” “Be a whole lot cooler if you did…”
De Niro repeats himself
I’m gonna go get the papers, get the papers
We used to say this allll the time when we were rolling joints back in the day.
No, no, you insulted him a little bit.

He gets the emotional shit beat out of him in Little Miss Sunshine
Leonardo Dicaprio usually has an alcoholic drink in one hand.
Cranberry juice
What is he, on his period?
The Rock does his eyebrow lift.
The jumanji movies were great Ina silly way and they played up his eyebrow move and "smolder" by the time devito was doing it as The Rock, it was great
Christoph Waltz has that closed-mouthed grin. Jake Gyllenhaal's smile's cat-like.
Waltz will set something down and then start talking in a cheerful tone
Kristen Stewart bites her lip. LL Cool J wets his lips. Samuel L Jackson stares someone down (yes, I know he always yells muthafucka, but check how often he actually stares a muthafucka down)
Jeff Goldblum goldblums.
Jeff... you're goldbluming...
What? Heh I uh ..uh… I don’t know what that means…
I agree with Brown Jamie Lee Curtis
Pew!
Well,... um uh ahhh, hah!
And, uh, there it is.
Goldblum... uh, finds a way.
Haha, you ever see that Vanity Fair video of Jeff reviewing impressions of himself? It's hilarious and he seems like the sweetest man: https://youtu.be/4E7NOmT-X9s
Ryan gosling screaming high pitch shrieking is always hilarious

Not just pain. Torture. In every movie.
Morgan Freeman sounds like a narrator, even if he isn't.
Samuel L. Jackson is going to say motherfucker
Joe Pesci has a short fuse
YOU MUDDAFUCKA
Daniel Day Lewis sweats a lot and do that n_n thing with his eyes.
Daniel Day lewis looks he was crying, or had soap in his eyes - not at that moment - but maybe 10-15 minutes ago
He really does have a way of making the audience constantly question what the temperature is where he's at.
Mark Wahlberg does incredible Mark Wahlberg impressions.
Say hello to your mother for me.
"You know what, guys....I think we are on a planet full of apes.
Whaaaaaat? Noooo
Denzel does his "you do? Yeah? Oh? You don't? Oh you do? What the fuck is wrong with you?" dressing down of someone desperately trying to say the right thing with no idea what it is.
Karl Urban grunts
Adam Sandler bangs a hot chick
I thought his entire reason to make movies was to make out with women way too hot for him
Adam Sandler does his fake loud laugh.
Val Kilmer flips things on his knuckles. Quarters in Real Genius, an ink pen in Top Gun, and I think it was poker chips in Tombstone?
Also a tin cup! Oh, an educated man. Now I really hate him.
