It's not that. It's a newer one. Probably post 2010. Different actor that looks similar. I probably should have clarified that I'm the actual post

It's not mallrats. It's something from the past 10ish years. It's a different actor

Reply to The Illustrated Man (1969) by _jarred_
I'm glad the younger generation still watches it. If you liked it I would recommend his better adaptations
"Something Wicked this way Comes"
"Fahrenheit 451"
"The Martain Chronicles"
Honorable mention also goes to Ray Bradbury Theater (I know this is TV) but there are a couple of episodes that are certainly worth a watch.

He always plays the same type of character. You’re probably thinking of him as La Fours in Mallrats.

Something interesting about the Power Glove and a lot of those early third party addons is that it started off as a piece of legit tech that got licensed and whiddled down into a toy at the right price for a Christmas gift.

Reply to What fictional movie character do you think should have done more to prevent historical atrocities like the Holocaust? by today_okay
Bill and Ted could have unknowingly convinced Hitler to off-himself a lot sooner just by their presence

I got this on Ebay on VHS in high school to watch with friends so I guess that's it? I think it was probably in my first ten purchases off the internet if I had to guess, probably five.
I wonder if you took the same story/actors but swapped Nintendo for Skateboarding or Pogs or some other fad like competition if it would still hit.

Sven-Ole Thorsen plays the mall security manager in Mallrats. He has no dialogue and just stands like that frequently in the film.

Idk who that is. Might help to repost with a picture that closely resembles him.

Yeah, I was the same with Oliver Twist. Dickens is only fun when you read it when you want to. I read GE in my own time and liked it fine, but having to study it would be murder.

Reply to Any good historical type movies? Like Mudbound, Ballad of Buster Scruggs, Wolf of wall Street, and The highway Men? by dino_niggets
The Right Stuff, Quiz Show, Eight Men Out, Tombstone are some I can think of.
American Graffiti is a great portal into the early 60's. The Rocketeer for the 30's
Any war movie really.

Narnia, deeply nostalgic vibe, great iconic music and visuals. I wish they had adapted all books.

History Buffs did an excellent video on it. And it was FAR more accurate than I would have originally assumed. Highly recommended channel.

I didn't think of that until after I posted. Do you think anybody would be upset if I reposted it? I don't think I have enough info for anyone to find it, and I don't wanna clog up the "new posts"
