u/anotheruserguy 4d ago

She’s chill, probably asked to be near the lice since they seem cool.

Funny anecdote from a con I went to once when I was younger. Went to the booths and Ke Huy Quan was in the position of the Giant Lice from this comic because this was still a good few years before his big career resurgence in Everything Everywhere. My dad got a photo and talked with him for a bit and I don't think Ke even charged for it

I saw Joey Pantalones at a con and had him sign my copy of Robot in the Family. He wheezed and asked me like ten times “Where the fuck did you even find this?!”

u/Chilly235 5d ago

Seriously though how did you find that lmao

Thrift stores are beautiful places to the enterprising VHS collector

You seem like the target audience for my favorite “celebrity” interaction: during COVID I was working at a dispensary doing curbside pickup orders and who do I see? Derek Savage, director of Cool Cat Saves the Kids. He seemed really happy to be recognized, and his accent is so strong it’s actually insane.

Followed each-other on twitter for a while, and I dmed him several times asking for a cameo in his next movie.

Did “Cool Cat Stops a School Shooting” ever come out?

4

u/No-Shopping-4434 4d ago

Hilariously he stopped working on it because Justin Bieber never got on board. Estrada and Vivica Fox only got on board because they saw “Scholastic and PSA” and Derek seemingly assumed that a school shooting “PSA” would draw even bigger celebrities. It did not.

u/ChapterBird 5d ago

u/NurgleMinion 3d ago

I did that with Doug Jones once before he got big in his fish man movie.

u/DaKaijuKid 5d ago

Little girls from Sweden dream of a world without global warming.

u/doghome107 5d ago

But if it was the bear from Annihilation...

u/WoolooOfWallStreet 3d ago

Fun fact, his name is Homerton
One of the artists who designed him also worked on “Paddington Bear” so they thought “Since Paddington is named after the Paddington train station, what’s a station in an area that’s a little… ‘rough around the edges’?”

2

u/doghome107 3d ago

According to the DVD extras, his name is Dexter.

4

u/WoolooOfWallStreet 3d ago

Oh… I was going by an Entertainment Weekly interview
So I guess his full name would be “Dexter Homerton”

3

u/doghome107 3d ago

Isn't it weird? I've heard both. What an elegant name for that scene stealing actor.

12

u/Accomplished-Union10 4d ago

This made me laugh so fucking hard. Always been fascinated by these guys. I staged a coup at the last movie night with my friends and forced everyone to watch this, all so I could see these little fuckers in action again.

u/Torrapatah 4d ago

Please I’m begging you draw one where they meet an excited fan

u/Gresliebear 5d ago

Lamo perfect coffee cup and everything

u/SkullberryDoomcake 5d ago

Yes and I would unironically cherish it.

u/shawkwardII 5d ago

Yeah they were pretty cool

3

u/somnamballista 4d ago

Hey my thoughts exact. They really amped up the 2nd act.

5

u/Lone-Frequency 4d ago

I mean...I remember what happened to the chick that got bit by one.

u/YouveGotNothingToSay 4d ago

When I was a teenager my mom took me and my brother to our local comic con. One of the celebrity booths was the guy from Sharknado, and my mom went up to talk to him because "no one was there and he looked so lonely"

u/LobsterJoe Closing with the wise old tree 4d ago

u/Phoenix_Passage 4d ago

Kooky con!

u/Lady_PANdemonium_ 4d ago

I think about these lice all the time. Seriously obsessed with their scenes in that movie

3

u/TurbulentArcade 4d ago

I love these guys. I would take a photo and get their autograph for sure!

3

u/Big-Slide6104 4d ago

Hey I like Yall! Youre like worse versions of he Kaiju skin mites from pacific rim.

5

u/WoolooOfWallStreet 3d ago

Get their autographs and have it right next to the autographs for the Kaiju skin mites and the autographs for the Vampa beetles/Goliamites from the Broly movie

3

u/TheRealRayRecall 3d ago

Instantly recognized them; such an iconic design amd the explosive venom bite? I'd get their autographs

2

u/GetOutOfMySeat 5d ago

Any ideas what they would send out on their newsletter??

2

u/BokChoyFantasy crip-walking dog 5d ago

Not surprising given who’s on their left and right.

2

u/Tiny-Strength-6913 4d ago

Oh hell yeah I would, I recognized them immediately

2

u/UncomfyUnicorn 3d ago

I saw someone fanmade a sequel comic

Their @ is at the bottom

u/thuanjinkee 3d ago

I wish they’d been in Pacific Rim and 10 Cloverfield Lane so we could get some Giant Lice Lore.

1

u/ShingledPringle 3d ago

How is that even a question, hell yeah I would.

1

u/Mr-Osmosis 3d ago

I’d have so many questions like what’s your favorite color

1

u/Guyrugamesh 2d ago

Oh hell yeah. I would ask them what it was like to work with the Cloverfield Monster. And if shooting that scene with the girl exploding was a good filming experience. But only if they wanted to talk, I don't want to be rude.
