Like being hit in the balls with a shotgun slug… there’s a reason that the Mexicans get so good at it. It’s completely devastating, shuts your whole shit right down.

It makes you want to call your mother and tell her how shitty life can be.
It hurts.
Badly.
Just for a picture of what it can do- I was walking into a bar once and saw one of my buddies sitting with his back to me. I was kinda fucking around because he hadn’t seen me walk in, and I kinda whacked him there.
It wasn’t hard at all (I thought) but I did hit him in the liver. He got up and started fuckin yelling at me while gasping and bending over. Made quite a scene, and I felt pretty bad.
And like I said- there was no bodyweight behind it, it was just quick tap. The place is really like getting tagged in the balls- even the smallest hits can really, really hurt.
Ask Oscar De La Hoya. I’ve been trying for years to actually SEE the body shot that dropped him against Hopkins, cause the one he was hit with looked like nothing.
LMAO @ people knowing EXACTLY what directors want. I’ma leave it at that.

Also why would the director not want that? The goal is to keep it as real as possible, if the person he is playing was skinny he has to be skinny to. I was told to drop weight for a couple of college plays because they were set in the early 1900’s and I was “too big” to be the lead.[/quote]
I suspect a lot of guys who did heavy manual labor jobs back then but made enough money to eat well were hardly small. And back then you also had people like Eugen Sandow, Louis Cyr, and George Hackenschmidt - the inventor of the hack squat.[/quote]
The award for talking out of his ass goes to…!!!
Sandow was a freak in his day. Women fainted at his shows and it damn sure wasn’t because every other guy walking around looked like that.
I’ll just assume high school invaded this thread and took it hostage.
Let’s see…a freaking HUGE crack addict…because, hey, he may like crack AND consistent resistant training, a balanced diet filled with protein, good fats, carbs and CRACK.
Yeah, I see it all of the time…late at night in 3rd ward…The CrackHead Olympia.
You win if you can stop shaking long enough to hit a crack pose.
There was a 50 lb difference between Tom Hank’s couch potato version in Cast Away to the later version who was marrooned for 3 or 4 years. I could see his abs a bit in some scenes but he was just really skinny. He was going for “hungry hard working scavenger” not “lets get ripped and hold onto as much muscle as possible.”
Anyone who says that he looked the same through out the movie has no credibility to me in regards to objectively judging body composition.

I will say though that he seems to have gotten and remained much fatter than now than he was even at the start of that movie since he lost that weight the way he did.
That dude is just “blubberish” now. Between him, Val Kilmer and Russell Crowe, somebody needs to hide the fucking Twinkies.

Thats why I hated him as the man character in the Dan Brown movies, a smart action hero he is not. I loved the books but the movies are shit because of him. I do like him in other movies though.
^^hahaha very true… especially Kilmer. He’s a straight up butterball these days.
I guess they got old and said “fuck it” to trying to stay “lean”… well more like stay not fat.

After playing Doc Holiday Kilmer I thought would just continue to be a major actor, WTF happened to him. Did he really just simply eat himself out of a job?

What happened to that guy?
He used to be all sexy and lean, then he magically turned stay-puft.
I don’t remember a transition.

he just didn’t do a movie for a while and turned into a lard ass. Same with Crowe. He was built pretty solid for Gladiator and then in that cop movie he was a total fatty.
It’s probably just a combo of getting older, getting lazy and not needing to be in shape to get movie roles
