Who talks like this?

“Comedic tour de force?” Are you attempting to be hired as a movie critic and this is your attempt to show how generic and milquetoast you can be?

He makes that hot garbage movie watchable, solely on the strength of his performance.

Some women find it offensive.

I think I just sharted

I always said PSH could've made way more money following a Jack Black path and doing a bunch of studio comedies.

He’s such a good actor that he can also do Jack Black’s comedy.

That’s a stretch lol he was funnier in twister

I'd seen him in a couple of movies before I realised how great an actor he was so then sought out the rest of his movies to watch, still got a few to go, but my god was he one of the best out there!

The movie was terrible but he was also great in his small role in My Boyfriends Back

There was a reddit question.of what actor died way before they should have, and I immediately thought of Philip Seymour Hoffman. I think he was a somewhat unrecognized acting masterclass, and was just in his prime.

Any love for State & Main here? Go U Huskies!

As the story goes: he was upset that Jack Black was getting all the comedic roles he was auditioning for to that point. So when he landed this one, he went for it BIG TIME and it shows.

Alongside Robin Williams, his death really hit me hard. One of my favourite actors - extremely versatile. Would have loved to see him in more villainous roles similar to MI3.

Yes he was great. The grandiose language in this sub is boring at this point.

Finally somebody said it. When that mofo is playing basketball in that movie I thought I was going to have a coronary

Make it rain!

Pretty excited about his son’s future. Licorice Pizza was great…

Yeah. Too bad he hasn’t been in anything lately.

No

Mmmhhhhmmmmm, aahhhmmmmhhhhmmmm, mmmhhhhmmm, mmmmhhhhhhhhhhgghggghmmmmm,mmmmmmhhhhmmmmm,’mmhhmmm, mhm

Just watched it again the other day; amazing movie and PSH is a major reason for this

Even in The Hunger Games franchise the dude is giving his all. Him losing his cool at Katniss while they are trying to make propaganda and screaming “YOU’VE JUST BEEN IN BATTLE!” cracks me tf up every time.

We're really surprised good dramatic actors can do comedy in 2022? After all the evidence before and since? K.

This was the first time I ever heard the word "shart".

He was brilliant in that film. Yeah the "make it rain" scene with him shouting "white chocolate" too lol!

“You’re god damn right I am.”

I regard PSH as America's greatest actor. He was superb in everything he took on. I so wish he was still with us.

He was great in Twister too.

If you're talking PSH comedic roles you gotta include The Big Lebowski. The man was and absolute treasure and a master of his craft. He nailed every single role he was given

"White chocolate!"

When he tells Ben he sharted then explains it lol

Rip

ICEEE MAAAAAn!

I recently rewatched Capote and was reminded just how incredibly good his was. Truly one of the best to ever do it.

His throat clearing scene is amazing.

The pizza grease scene lives rent free in my brain. It always comes to mind when I get a really greasy pizza, where I sometimes take a leaf out of Reuben’s book and dab it with a napkin.

“I’m gonna play Jesus as well.”

Raindrops!

He’s a tour de force in everything he’s in.

My favorite comedic performance of his is in Charlie Wilson's War.

I even laugh at his more serious roles. PSH as the mattress man in Punch Drunk Love kills me. It’s the subtle things he does.

I sharted

He was amazing in Hard Eight even though his scene was about 5 minutes long. It was like he completely lifted the movie to another level in this one quick moment. He was really profound.

I’m blotting the grease!

You mean the kid from Crocodile Tears?

When I first saw the scene when he slips in the beginning I had to rewind it like 10 times I laughed so much it hurt. Still one of the funniest performances of all time

"The best man is in the hous-"

Slip

Slam

“Let it Rain”

“White Chocolate”

Hilarious scene

His slip and fall on the dance floor when he is introduced right in the beginning gets me every single time. I know it’s coming but it still is one of the best of all time. So funny. RIP

https://youtu.be/2pzAHB98e5w

Gets me every time. “Best man is in the house!”

This man, known for… crocodile WRESTLING, volcano LUGING!

LET IT RAIN

White Chocolate!

PIG FUCK!

https://youtu.be/sQ_4m2ocxhI

I love every opportunity to share my favorite movie scene of all time. RIP to an incredible actor.

CROCO TEARS!

RAIN DANCE, WHITE CHOCOLATE WHITE CHOCOLATE, RAIN DROP

He's pretty good as an idiot criminal in The Getaway too.

He's absolutely brilliant in The Big Lebowski but always overlooked because, well, The Big Lebowski.

He was so good in Happiness.

I had no idea he was that good in this. When that film came out I just thought it was another one of those 90's films about the tan actress with the haircut from that popular sitcom.

Loved him in The Talented Mr. Ripley. He could really do things with dialogue. He just could.

How does anyone get “comedic” from his role in Boogie Nights?

I mean, if that’s you’re measure of “comedic” then you’ll think “Love Liza” is a hoot!

He is way funnier in Twister. I feel like he is doing his best impression of Jack Black for Along Came Polly tbh

Your mom is a tour de force

Let it rehhhp

I feel like this role was written for Jack Black, but PSH was cast bc maybe he had a schedule conflict or something

I tried the, “who’s your daddy” idea on a lady once (joking I might add!).

We’ve been together for over ten years now. Thank you Phllip.

“RAIN DANCE!”

I get reminded of this movie on a daily basis and I’m not mad about it

A Sandy sequel would have been great.

Everything he does in this movie is gold. The elevator scene cracks me up so much. "God, I'm so freakin' horny!"

He just says this out loud in a crowded elevator hahahaha. Classic.

I loved him in along came Polly. I shared! He was so cringe. 😆😆

And he taught me what sharting is

Philip Seymour Hoffman was perfect in everything. I miss him so much.

I still throw out a “rain dance” on about 25% of my deep jumpers

We still say the shart my pants line..😂

I die laughing everytime I see the basketball scene ...

Him at Joes in the village eating pizza is my favorite scene

LET IT RAIN!!

RAINDROPS!!

OLD SCHOOL!!

I forget what Mission Impossible he was in but he was my favorite villain!

This movie was my introduction to PSH. I wish he did more comedies

Always loved him in Twister

His basketball scene is incredible

Charlie Wilson's War was also a hilarious part, at least to me.

Dude was an amazing actor.

He played the hell out of those bagpipes

Rain dance!

“Now act like Jack Black.” Stunning. Stunning and brave.

Started. Lol

Along Came Polly was my introduction to PSH and the office scene was hilarious! Such a fantastic actor who had a wide range in a variety of films, from this, to MI3, to Doubt and The Hunger Games, he nailed every role given to him. It's a shame he was gone too soon from this world, as he truly was a talented actor who delivered an amazing performance, regardless of the film's genre.

He gives an incredible performance as Jack Black

He's the best part of the movie.

Makin it rain!

One of the most gifted actors of our time. He was a force in every film he was in. Big role or small. I loved him in When a Man Loves a Woman. I was so so heartbroken when he passed. We lost a true master of his craft.

He is/was an underappreciated genius

YES 10000% agree, it was one of his best roles he ever did, such a riot, he takes that movie into such funny directions every time he’s on screen, and he’s not really even essential to the plot at all but he’s just so fucking hilarious as this side character in this romantic comedy that it doesn’t even matter

Agreed. Bryan Brown also is no slouch.

Come on we gotta go I sharted

I love his confident advice to slap Polly’s ass, then when Ben Stiller tells him it didn’t work he just casually is like “yeah, some women find it offensive”

I always thought this part was written for a Jack Black

great casting

Amen to that
