Hate body shaming but she looks like a fucking cartoon.

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 6 points 18 hours ago

They do though 😭

sry for ranting on a shitpost but damn...that trailer is creepy AF.

quote from wiki

It follows Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of the defunct health technology company Theranos, and her partner Billy Evans who invite a film crew to document them beginning in the weeks before Holmes began serving a United States federal prison sentence for defrauding investors.

what kind of psychotic narcissism is this? geez

Did they specifically ask for Nathan? I love everything he and am curious how he got involved

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 43 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Fun fact: a friend linked the trailer the other day. I thought "wow, the acting / directing on this actor playing an absolute fucking nutter is impeccable". I hadn't heard of the film before, so I looked out up. Saw it was about Elizabeth Holmes whose name i remembered but didn't know about. Saw there was a picture of her, thought, "wow, the actress they got to play her is an absolute dead ringer... wait a minute..."

What the absolute fuck?! Did no-one speaking to her realise that she was an absolute fruitcake?

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 12 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I thought it was a mockumentary at first with an actress playing Holmes. A really similar looking actress haha. The trailer just seemed unhinged enough for it to not actually be her.

Then I read more about it and realized it was actually her.....

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 6 points 22 hours ago

Makes me feel better that someone who knows what she looked like could make the same mistake!

[–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)

the whole reasonΒ  nathan did the movie is because she is crazy. do you not know his back catalogue?

[–] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 7 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

He is a sociopathic comedic genius and I love him and everything he makes

[–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

i get more 'tism vibes than sociopathy but i am not a doctor lol

That I definitely get, but some of the stuff he does on The Rehearsal is on a different level… he doesn’t do anything evil but some of it is a bit more ethically questionable than what he’s done in the past

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't when I saw the trailer.

[–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

i highly recommend the watch if you have hulu!Β 

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

There is a TV series called The Dropout where Amanda Seyfried plays Elizabeth Holmes and won an award for it. I haven't seen it yet but the trailers don't seem to be able to capture how crazy she seems (like Seyfried seems to be the crazy we're used to seeing; Holmes has a different type of unsettlingness) ... not taking away from Seyfried but Jennifer Lawrence declined or backed out playing Holmes in a movie saying Seyfried's role was enough for this portrayal.

Also, Holmes was saying how none of them were actually playing "her" they were playing an invention she made up ...

The trailer for the film the meme is a screencap from, You can See Everything.

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Thank you, pesce be with you my friend

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So I figured out what film this is referencing but what does this caption have to do with... Anything?

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

the caption in the original post? It has nothing to do with the film, it's just using the expressions of the two people for comic effect :)

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I believe in the trailer she's also saying, "Why would I deceive you?"

[–] dismay3915@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] funkreddit@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

lol a fruit cake and a nutter used to mean used to mean something totally different.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Used to? The hell do they mean now?! 🀨

[–] funkreddit@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Whatever OP posted lol

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I re-read my comment and it makes sense to me. Have you seen the trailer in question?

[–] dismay3915@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

What is a nutter? What is a fruitcake? what's a dead ringer?

[–] krellor@fedia.io 24 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Dead ringer is an exact look a like. A clone.

Nutter and fruitcake are terms for someone crazy.

[–] sfxrlz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Ah so that’s why that items called that in tf2. Or is it the other way around ? :D

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

Wait, to nut is to wank but a nutter isn't a wanker?

[–] AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nutter, nut and nutcase have been used to refer to crazy people for a lot longer than nut has been used to refer to wanking

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I am wondering the etymogy of the slang usage now. What about nuts did people look at an go "yeah that can apply to people who are mentally unwell?"

Was it the fact a walnut kinda resembles a brain? πŸ€”

[–] AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I got as far as discovering that nut as in crazy is the earliest and nutter and nut case are derived from it, and nut was (and still is) slang for head, plus the terms nuts and nutty also meant crazy, so it's a fairly obvious step for nut to pick up that definition, too.

Not just American (I'm not American).

Dead ringer isn't really slang, it's just an idiom. I'm curious what variety of English you speak?

[–] dismay3915@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

The non-native english. Learnt something today.

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

I’m Canadian and I understood

[–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

american/uk

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So what's this new image macro format that I've been seeing around all day?

[–] ch00f@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Trailer for new documentary on Elizabeth Holmes.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago
