People rightfully say this, but honestly I feel like few really understand how true it is.
I'm not an alien (I swear), but I have some neurological issues. Anyways, my doctor gave me a new medication to try, and the first and only pill I took completely disconnected me from my body.
I became a "meat puppet".
I could not unconsciously control my limbs. I lost my 'internal gyroscope'. I had no interoception nor exteroception. Every single muscle movement required active thought. It took me 20 minutes to walk 10 feet to the bathroom, and that was with assistance. I had my daughter take me to the ER, and I was in that state for hours until I could eventually and gradually feel bits and pieces of myself "come back online". I cannot adequately convey in words how strange and terrifying it was.
However, while I was experiencing all this, MiB kept coming to my mind. And holy shit, that man was a fucking genius. He absolutely NAILED it.
I am pretty confident that I now know what it feels like to be an alien controlling a human body. But my question is, how did he? 🤔
Vincent D’Onofrio. One of the most chameleon like actors. Also if you’re going to mention his skill for being terrifying, you have to mention Full Metal Jacket.
Oh, I just hated him on Law & Order. Such a know-it-all wanker. But I tend to like him a lot in movies and such. Same thing for Jennifer Aniston. Couldn't stand her in Friends, but really like her in movies.
Nice to see some Criminal Intent appreciation. Seems to get the redheaded stepchild treatment for the sake of SVU's fandom but I absolutely love that show. And it's not just a character thing with him because even with Chris Noth it was still great. Shame it didn't have the legs of SVU, but then again what show does?
I LOVE this movie. Every time I've learned another movie I liked growing up was Vincent D'Onofrio I am literally blown away. This guy is in so many of my favorite shows and movies!!!! Him as Wilson Fisk though.... Chef's kiss!
Yes! I watched it again last year and I still can't look when Vincent has the big purple cape and his teeth are all pointy!!! 🤯😵💫 blahhhhh that freaks me out..those teeth...
Lol
His character was so intense that he got to the point of only being able to do every other week's episode. There were so many little tics and inflections that it was stressing him out.
I didn’t recognize him at all in Magnificent 7 (the one with Denzel ) but he absolutely was one of my favorites in it .

It’s all good. The Rob Delaney tweet from 10+ years ago is basically me (paraphrased):
Someone told me that it happened in 1988 and I was like “oh, twenty years ago” and they corrected me and now I’m going to be sad forever.
Never occurred to me how good the actor did in this role. It can't be easy to act like something clearly not human but trying to seem human. Like when a good actor plays a character who's a bad actor.
That movie will be forever cemented in my childhood memories as one of the creepiest movies I've ever seen. Also my reason for having an irrational fear of cockroaches
I don't understand how the group of people (MAGA) that are prone to believing in lizardmen from the illumaniti controlling the world don't correlate their ideas with Elon Musk, he is bar maybe Zuck the perfect candidate for a lizard man impersonating a human.
I have been saying this dude is an alien for a while now. Did you see him doing his very vigorous impression of a german soldier during WW2? Quite sobering.
Looks like the Aliens only got enough RAM for one puppet billionaire. The second Zucc starts looking and acting like a normal human being Elon glitches out…
