At first glance my reaction was, wow Ron aged so bad then I realized the last two pictures were Alan’s.
Anyway why does it look like Ron is getting older every sentence? Why is the 3rd picture from a different interview?
Because they’re quotes from different interviews. The second interview is from the reencounter special, he was asked what happened to the drawing in the anecdote during the section that memorialized Rickman.
Hans Gruber did NOTHING wrong!
Fun fact, in the shot of >!Hans Gruber falling off the building at the end of Die Hard!<, Alan’s look of shock is genuine - he was rigged up on a harness with a quick release above a crash pad, and was told that they would be releasing him on a count of 3, but the director got the stunt coordinator to release him on 2 instead
I can never seem to get what the spoiler format is here.
spoiler
There’s a spoiler button just above the text box.
Interestingly, this does not work on Eternity.
!This apparently does, though.!<
It is done by >! text !<
But I still don’t know and just uses a button on the app.
Edit: strange, as this is what the user did in the first place but doesn’t show as spoiler for me either.
Neither of them work on Memmy, lol
Add Voyager to that list.
Guess we’re decentralizing markdown formats too lmao
I hope that gets unified at some point.
Spoiler text somehow only works for myself, even if others used the same syntax.
Open a bug report with your frontend!
The actual text used is [::: spoiler spoiler] then [your message] then [:::]. The second “spoiler” can be replaced by whatever word you want.

Not working on Voyager, none of the comments in this chain do
::: spoiler Harry Potter spoilers Snape kills Dumbledore :::
You just put it in and it automatically spoilers it. See? >!hunter2!<
I’ve never seen him play anything other than a stoic dick. It’s almost hard to think of him as a nice guy.
I’m sure many (American) people think Hugh Laurie is like House in real life too 😂
American here, I’m a big fan of Stephen Fry so I knew about him from A Bit of Fry and Laurie. I know I’m an outlier in the statistics.
Similar story but I’m Italian
Jeeves and Wooster here, but lump me into that outlier group with you.
British people know how sophisticated he really is
I was VERY surprised when I heard his real accent as a kid.
So were the production team of House. They totally thought he was an American and were surprised when he first spoke with them in his natural voice.
That’s the power of acting and when done by a master, it’s hard to imagine anything other than what they give us.
I’m pretty sure this is the first picture I have ever seen of him with a genuine smile on his face. In all his movies he doesn’t actually smile, he does a condescending sneer.
By Grabthar’s hammer…
But… he was the Metatron.
The one, the almighty? And voice of the One True God?
I’m so grateful you were here because I typed that all out as if on reflex and realized it was a bit much and deleted it but it felt so naked not to say the whole thing!
Right back at you lol it felt naked to me too. Sometimes you just gotta
Saw a movie earlier with him in it called Bottle Shock. Title might be one word. He plays a smug character but really he is just British in the movie. Came out in 2008. It was about California making wine. I enjoyed it but it is by no means thrilling. If you have watched everything else you want to see, go for it.
Wait, do Brits come across as smug?
The posh ones, yes. The banter doesn’t help the rest.
Americans take banter personally.

I think there are assumptions that come with that sort of thing. Giving a somebody a “ribbing, hard time, etc.” requires careful execution. Americans tend to take themselves way too seriously sometimes. I think we generally assume we are being insulted intentionally, which can be true, unless A.) It’s expected by the recipient, B.) It’s glaringly obvious that the comments are intended in good humor, or C.)
The person speaking to you happens to be Don Rickles.The King is Dead. Long Live the King! On the other hand, ridicule is often delivered with insult as the intent. So the assumptions are probably not completely misplaced.
Man I miss him. Galaxy Quest and Harry Potter were giants in the psyche of young me
Alan Rickman’s death was a tragedy.
Don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.
He was absolutely hilarious in Dogma
I so thought you were telling me Rupert Grint had died.
Is it just me or does Snape look like Tom Scott cause playing as himself
