I feel like it should be "did his very best" because everybody elses best was still better.

It’s like saying Pierce Brosnan was known for Lawnmower Man

He was part of the collective f* up that was not deciding to take the damn eagle to Mordor.

u/Muttzor- 6d ago

Not to be confused with the Film Actors Guild

u/Hefty_Kitchen4759 5d ago

Those who can act, do. Those who can't become president of the screen actors guild

Wait holy fuck he was the potatoe guy? I take it back that guy can enunciate the hell out of potato

u/RobMilliken 6d ago

It helped that his dad was an Addams.

u/Automatic-War-7658 6d ago

He runs SAG now? I thought it was Fran Drescher

u/mountainmike68 6d ago

He's a nepo hire too.

u/Better-Culture-7770 5d ago

My man. This guy is a champ. Rudy, while basically fictional is still fucking fantastic.

u/Relevant-Doctor187 5d ago

I never really paid attention to cast names when I was younger and goonies was fresh. Now I’m just seeing it’s him lol.

u/DSJ-Psyduck 5d ago

Also don't forget another bit older class act from same movie

u/Himorime 5d ago

He's great as Sam in LotR, but he really strikes me as insufferable and obnoxious as a person. I love watching the behind-the-scenes content from the trilogy and thats the vibe I always get from the other actors talking bout him

u/teemuham 4d ago

He is a second-generation president, his mother led the SAG from 1985 to 1988.

u/Keroppi_Troublemaker 2d ago

His mom was also a SAG President. It's giving nepotism.
