Reply to comment by kleptophobiac in Anna Faris Joins Dave Bautista in ‘My Spy: The Eternal City’ by Bennett1984

Dude wants to be a not-superhero actor so bad he'll just take wherever the studios will give him.

I give it 10 years max before someone's interviewing him and asks about Drax, and he flips out, saying he's been in hundreds of hours of more movies than Guardians, and that he's a real actor and should be asked about literally any other role.

Edit Ohhhh I see - this post was an astroturf ad, which explains why everyone's acting like Bautista and Faris are somehow huge enough to get upvotes for a sequel to a middling child comedy with a 43% Rotten on RT, which also barely made over half its cost at Box Office ($18M movie, $10M in theater sales). Maybe if more of the downvoters who hit my post had actually been paying customers to the movie, this would have more real excitement.

That was a lot of effort to say nothing. Go outside and touch some grass.

Says the dude in the Movies subreddit.

I'll bet I've seen and touched more grass in my life than you have bud. Do you go backpacking? Or do you just unironically tell people online to touch grass, while you're stuck inside doing nothing all weekend?

Stop being a simp for celebrities who don't know you or care about your feelings. And don't tell a backpacker like me to touch grass lmao.

OP’s snapping at you is peak insecurity, holy shit. It reads exactly like a stereotype of Redditors.

What about him makes you think he’d act like an asshole about Drax?

Everything I’ve ever seen from him in interviews shows him to be grateful to have gotten such an opportunity as a very green actor, and a desire to become a better actor and work with other genres and directors.

I’m not paid, I just like Bautista, man. I think he makes fairly interesting choices vs. his contemporaries (ie, The Rock), and I think he has actual talent.

This movie was just fine, compared to his others (it reminded me of Arnold’s kids comedies). And people like Anna Faris, too! Why is this so hard to believe?

This movie was released in the States in June of 2020 to just over 100 theaters. Dig deep into that big brain of yours and think about why it may not have had much of a box office while being distributed during a global pandemic.
