Maybe they've cast Jack Black as Ganondorf lol

It would be so funny if they snuck in Felicia Day for a cameo with her as a fairy. (She played a fairy in the 2008 parody web series, "The Legend of Neil")

His Bowser was the best part of the animated movie.

It wasn't a high bar.

Was it? I've found Jack Black annoying in everything he's ever done. I do not understand the hype people have for him.

I watched Gulliver's Travels cause I thought it would be interesting. I didn't realize ahead of time that it was supposed to be a kid's movie. (At least, I hope it was supposed to be a kid's movie, cause it would've been really shitty by any other standard).

And I have to say, seeing Jack Black acting in a kid's movie just felt wrong. I mean, I've seen that man do dick-ups. I've seen him have a placebo acid trip in the desert after peeing on a pregnancy test. Oil and water, man. Some things just don't mix.

Of course, the spontaneous jam sessions were pretty cringe too. Like, "You were cool twenty years ago, dude. It's okay to retire and be lame now, but the lamest thing you can do is to keep trying to be cool..."

I don't hate him but he can't be anyone other than jack black. Every appearance I can only see him as jack black and not the character he is supposed to be acting as. He replaces the character.

That's the sign of a bad actor. It's like reverse type casting.

Same way you watch 1989 Batman, and you see Jack Nicholas in face paint.

[–] supamanc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

That's his character though - annoying, but loyal loser struggling to make it Ina cruel world. It's what he does.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No no no. Jack Black played Bowser.

OBVIOUSLY they cast Weird Al Yankovich.
