pixar really had to hardcore yank tony’s ‘i smoke a line of cocaine behind the school dumpster during second period’ character design to replace it with a facetuned love interest from a disney channel original movie . u already kno some pixar director mustve went back to the source material and noticed tony’s busted ass face and they had to scrap that shit immediately . he was literally too ugly to allow even a trace of his original face associate w/ the masterpiece they were abt to be making . rebooted his whole ass face then gave him his dark turtleneck and called it a day smh . mess
i’m screaming at the people reblogging this and saying that new tony is generic and old tony had some “character” like why do you people think that a man being ugly means he has personality . tony circa 2004 looks like he’d piss in the bushes outside your mom’s house and new tony looks like he’d wait 57 minutes for his food at a restaurant and still be nice to the waiter because they’re “just doing their best”. accept that pixar pulled the gag of the century and gave us the tony we deserve
pixar, completely remodeling tony’s clapped face: fuck a bitch named consistent character design and maintenance of the integrity of the original work. new tony is going to look like he would pay $60 for a gram of weed whether you losers like it or NOT
My favourite things about the “are you prepared for the kind of death you’ve earned, little man?” meme are that a. it’s not an “incorrect quotes” gag - that’s actually what Brent Spiner is saying in that shot; and b. he’s talking to Wil Wheaton.
I don’t remember this, so please, tell me where I can learn more.
The Next Generation, season one, episode thirteen.
God I love Brent Spiner
Looking back on the early episodes, it’s striking how much of the humour relies on finding excuses for Brent Spiner to say something wildly incongruous with a perfectly straight face. I know it’s weird to praise an actor for lack of affect, but Spiner’s impenetrable poker face carries whole scenes.
