Was John Leguizamo as Violator the best comedic villain in a comic movie?
>>
>>219155109
His commitment to this role is astounding. He actually ate that maggot pizza twice.
>>
>>219155152
Those were real maggots? I always wondered how they did that. If so, mad respect for the lad.
>>
>>219155109
I don't think someone called "Violator" is a funny person, OP.
>>
>>219155321
He’s a villain who makes some jokes
>>
>>219155269
Yeah, they were real and they didn't get the first take. I think the lens cap was on or some shit.
>>
>>219155109
If this came out a decade later he would've been nominated for an academy award for this
>>
>>219155463
How does he have so much range?
>>
>>219155109
Honestly yeah. Both Clown and Spawn have always had some weird charm to them given how dark that universe is.
I wouldn't mind a buddy cop show where the two go on various adventures.
>>
>>219155529
I mean they've teamed up on some occasions but Clown is just a backstabbing piece of shit by nature. He was born in hell. I still like the little guy a lot.
>>
>>219155529
clown is funny but the violator a.ka. his true self not so much

Why doesn’t Todd make this happen

>but Clown is just a backstabbing piece of shit by nature.

Clown/Violator's whole point as a character was that he was sent with Spawn to watch over him and make sure he learned to control his parasitic suit and powers so that he could successfully use them as a commander in the Devil's army. That was his JOB, but he/it actually hated Spawn because he, like most of the demons, despised the fact that Malebolgia was insisting on promoting "non-natives" to lead in the war, and the demons felt like they were the ones who should be doing that.

So Violator kind of was an antagonist in some ways, mostly he kind of just showed up to murder people and eat their hearts a lot, and occasionally shit-talk Al Simmons when he got his ass beat.

I call bullshit on him actually "eating" that maggot pizza. Did he put it in his mouth? Yes. Did he actually chew it? Kinda maybe. We don't really see him gnash them up into a paste, but the dude definitely did put that maggot pizza in his mouth. But "eating" implies he actually swallowed that fucking thing, which I highly doubt. Not to take away anything from his amazing performance.

Of course not, he probably had a bucket next to him to spit the food. Like in 99% of movies, nobody actually eats anything.
>>
>>219156145
I don't know if you know this, but literally every movie and show, unless it's absolutely necessary for the scene, will cut away from a character as they're actually putting food in their mouth, because if they actually capture footage of them putting something in their mouth and chewing it as part of a take, then that means they have to do the same thing EVERY take and every coverage shot.

It does happen sometimes (see: DiCaprio eating sushi in Wolf of Wall Street) and it involves a lot of spitting foot in the trash because if you have to do 20 takes or whatever, you've not locked yourself in to eating the same thing 20 times or more.

Can you not be a pedantic faggot?
>>
>>219156830
Can you not misuse the English language, ESL?
>>
>>219156872
Didn't misuse "pedantic", did I?
>>
>>219156916
Wow ESL AND stupid. Well considering you're ESL it shouldn't be a surprise that you're also stupid.

Don't use the word "eating" if you don't actually mean "eat". He was acting. He put maggot pizza in his mouth. He didn't actually "eat" the pizza. When you see Neo or Superman flying around in their respective movies, you don't say "Wow Keanu actually flew in the Matrix!" do you?
>>
>>219155529
I tried getting into spawn. Right up until he was inexplicably fighting the kkk in alabama for some reason. I have no time for that. If I want to be bludgeoned with a message, I'd go to a holocaust museum.

>>219159989
Just watch the cartoon. Im generally a proponent for comics but spawn’s story is all over the place
>>
>>219155109
He was the best part of a truly dogshit film
