Why is Vin Diesel looking down? Is he worried he’s gonna forget his line?
Vin Diesel asked the director his inspiration for every line he did and did multiple takes until he was satisfied. He also recorded the line over 1,000 times and also recorded his lines in Mandarin, Portuguese, French, and Spanish so they could use his real voice in those versions. He’s looking at his lines because Vin Diesel is a dedicated motherfucking professional.
And then he showed up at the LA premiere like this:
Stilts, people!
Vin Diesel is so fantastic every time I hear people mock him I just want to be like “excuse you, do you know of any other multi-racial actor in Hollywood who’s fronted a blockbuster franchise featuring an unashamedly multi-cultural cast full of primarily non-white actors, and who has done it unapologetically over and over again for *seven* installments? NO, YOU DON’T, SIT THE FUCK DOWN.”
❤ ❤ ❤
Vin Diesel makes goofy movies like The Pacifier so he can keep making Riddick movies. He even went so far as to found Tigon Studios to make sure the Riddick video game was good (it was awesome).
I love Vin Diesel!
In high school and college, when Vin Diesel really rose to box office prominence, I used to hate Vin Diesel because he seemed like the kind of dumb macho guy that A. made fun of me a lot and B., well, A’s enough, isn’t it?
And then he went on “The Tonight Show” and talked in depth about his high school life as a hardcore D&D player. So. I’m on board with Vin Diesel now. And also, like, don’t judge people by how they look.
i don’t even care about the gifs. reblogging for the comments and cause Vin is my boy.
I thought I read somewhere that Vin has a special copy of the script with actual dialog for Groot so he can capture the right tone for the conversation.
hey its that time again: for me to yell about this fucking post, again, bc im seeing it on my dash, Again,
this is not a “rare” animal, it is not something to be “protected” or “preserved.” this is the horrific result of drastic inbreeding caused by human intervention. color morphs on tigers are not natural or something that should be encouraged. it may be “pretty” to the uneducated, but is it really pretty knowing it’s the work of god-awful animal husbandry and just a tactic to grab more money? is it worth hurting the tiger’s actual dwindling population of actually HEALTHY, NOT deformed animals? absolutely not. look at that face, in the first picture. those droopy eyes and ‘stung by a bee’ swollen look about the mouth? that and WORSE are the prices these animals pay for their pretty fur. i dont even WANT to know what kinds if health problems will erupt from these poor beasts. inbreeding of ANY animal, ESPECIALLY ones endangered such as tigers, should not be promoted or encouraged. i realize not all people know this but please god use your heads
I feel like the reason certain dog-lovers insist cats are evil is because they read their body language as if they were dogs. So here’s a very basic guide to common “mean” things cats do that actually aren’t mean at all if you know what they’re thinking.
Rolling and exposing belly- attacks you when touched Does not mean: Give belly rubs! – haha I tricked you! Actually means: I’m playful! If you reach for my belly I’ll grab your arm and bite it because I think we’re playfighting!
Lazily exposing belly – still attacks when touched Does not mean: tricked you again! Actually means: I’m showing you my belly because I trust you. Please don’t break that trust by invading my personal space. I might accept a belly rub if I’m not ticklish and I know you well.
Snapping at you while being pet Does not mean: I suddenly decided I dislike you! Actually means: You’re petting me in a way that gives me too much restless energy. Please focus on petting my head and shoulders instead of stroking the full length of my back next time.
Is in the same room but makes no attempt to interact Does not mean: I’m ignoring you Actually means: We’re hanging out! I’m being respectful by giving you space while still enjoying your company.
Slapping/scratching your hand when you try to pet them Does not mean: I hate you! Actually means: You’ve failed to establish that we’re not playing, or the way you’re approaching me scares me. Be calmer, speak more gently, make eye-contact and blink slowly at me before you try again.
I love this post omg, thank you so much. As a lifelong cat person, dogs perplex me because they’re so completely different behaviourally.
Slapping/biting at your hand or yowling in complaint at being approached
Does not mean: I hate you, lousy human
Actually means: I am not in the mood for contact and you have not noticed my body language indicating this, get out of my space.
Please remember, cats are much more likely than dogs to defend their own personal space, and they don’t always want to be touched. Try to respect that.
