Didn’t Sandler say he literally shoots dumb movies just so he can travel to exotic locations?
Comment on Stranger Than Fiction should have been Will Ferrell’s big dramatic break
ech@lemm.ee 1 year agoI mean, it’s very likely just because it’s not what they want to do. Especially actors like Ferrell and Sandler, it’s not like they’re struggling to get work. They can do whatever They want. They just do the silly comedies.
Then look at actors like Steve Carell and Bryan Cranston. Both amazing comedians as well, but also taking up a good share of more dramatic, even grim roles (and nailing those, too, btw). Just because an actor is good at the more dramatic works doesn’t mean it’s what they want to do.

I don’t know if he’s ever actually said it, but a bunch of us have assumed it. Travel and make movies with your friends. What a life.

This kind of thoughtful comment is why Lemmy is great and Reddit sucks

I wouldn’t be surprised at all if I saw this exact same comment on reddit.
It’s a lot of the same people on lemmy as are on reddit. Just people.

Fewer bots and trolls, sure. But there is quality content on both sites.
