Other Roles

I've seen Bryan in Argo, and while it was a small part, he was great and I recommend the movie.

I've not seen Aaron in Smashed yet, though I really want to. Also, my favourite Nick Hornby novel is being made into a movie as we speak, 'A Long Way Down', and Aaron is one of the leads in that, which I am MOST excited about!!

Recently, due to ~immense peer pressure!!!, I started watching Veronica Mars and, being COMPLETELY non-spoiled, have been hugely surprised and excited by the presence of both Aaron and Krysten Ritter.

Um, what else? Oh, I started watching The Dome, but have fallen a little behind in recent weeks. Dean Norris plays one of the lead-ish roles in that... Not sure where I stand on recommending it. It had promise, but I'm not sure if I think it's lived up to that. I can't really say until I catch up!

Exactly under the Dome had a thousand watts of potential and kind of is like.....going nowhere. WHICH. HOW?

It is a great premise.

I'm so glad it's not just me thinking this! After our initial chat, I'd been meaning to catch up with you about this again...

You are definitely not the only one! I'm actually really surprised. I mean, there is really....very little suspense for this situation and I thought they'd be a bit more intense on human dynamics since they are all trapped there and some hate each other etc, but. It's kind of like nothing happens when things are happening. Or maybe it's just things happen...and it takes no toll or change on the characters. :/

that time Bryan pretended Jesse was being killed off mid-season three. TROLOLOLOL!!!! My faaaavourite!

They talk about this in the TimesTalk panel I linked. It's such brilliant trolling.

Soooo.......Bryan was in Malcolm in the Middle and he made me laugh my ass off every time? XD

He was funny as hell, I am so sorry. :D

For any BrBa who has not seen it yet, I have to highly recommend the TimesTalks panel interview with the full BrBa cast (well, the main actors whose characters are still living!) plus Vince. This group interview is one and a half hours long and it's filled with wonderful stories and reflections on their time together making BrBa. Betsy cries at one point as she remembers filming her scenes with Dean in 'One Minute'. Bryan teases Aaron a lot and it's delightful. Seriously, watch it!

And just for fun I also wanted to share this recent article. It's 18 photos of the best "Yeah Bitch!" faces that Aaron Paul has made in real life. You're familiar with Aaron's "Yeah Bitch!" face, right? :D
