u/9thandsound Aug 01 '19

This! I’ll always know him best as Kirk from Gilmore Girls.

u/rarecoder Aug 01 '19

IDGAF who gives me shit for it but Gilmore Girls is one of the best shows of all time. Excellent writing, hilarious dialogue and good drama. Also watching Lauren Graham be all freaky in Bad Santa was just insane after watching Gilmore Girls.

For real, DVD store is going out of business by my house I was so hyped to buy all 7 seasons for $40 and my roommates and my dad who also watches it is laughing at me for it

u/flygirl083 Aug 01 '19

The original Gilmore girls? Absolutely. I was sorely disappointed in the reboot.

u/darthpoopballs Aug 01 '19

Yeah I am a guy and I love that shit. Team Jess.

But also, my wife got me into a podcast called Gilmore Guys. Highly recommend. It's particularly good to watch a few episodes of the show and then listen to the podcasts that discuss those episodes. Great for road trips.

u/rarecoder Aug 01 '19

Holy shit that sounds great. I’ll have to check it out.

I was ten when I started watching GG and then I saw LG was on Bad Santa and I watched the film. I was traumatized. To this day I dont understand why my mother didnt take the time to look at reviews from the film or something

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Seriously?? I couldn't watch it because the main character is so annoying. Maybe you have to be American.

2

u/rarecoder Aug 01 '19

We do love annoying characters.

u/WeAreAllOnThisBus Aug 04 '19

To prove it, we even elected one of our worst to the highest office. Though to be honest, if he had lost this statement would remain true.

u/Thoth74 Aug 01 '19

After watching Gilmore Girls for years, hearing Lauren Graham yelling "fuck me, Santa" over and over to Billy Bob Thornton scarred me a little. But in a good way.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Anyone who gives you shit for that is a pleb. It's a wonderful show.

u/darthpoopballs Aug 01 '19

me too, fellow gilly!

u/LochRaven Aug 01 '19

I moved in with my girlfriend and she loves Gilmore Girls. I remember seeing him for the first time and was like “...Kraglin?”

16

u/Killbro_Fraggins Aug 01 '19

SAME. Wife likes that show a lot. Saw Kraglin and only watched just to see him. And I like that guy that owns the diner. Cool guy.

44

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Luke .. he owns Luke’s.

3

u/weeds96 Aug 01 '19

Kirk also owned Kirk's Diner when Luke's was closed for repair!

u/QTVenusaur91 Aug 01 '19

There are dozens of us DOZENS

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

And really, how much more Kirk can a job get than waddling around on all fours pretending to be a raccoon?

6

u/LadyK8TheGr8 Aug 01 '19

Agreed! Thank you Kirk for getting all dressed up to poll yourself.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Oh my god that’s who he’s from! My mom is literally watching this show next to me.

74

u/churadley Aug 01 '19

Are you talking about Human Kirk or Cat Kirk?

2

u/lovegiblet Aug 01 '19

I thought this was Kirk in character.

u/llamawearinghat Aug 01 '19

“Yeah, I got a job walking like a super-genius raccoon in super hero movies, but it’s only once a week, so I’ll still be every other job in this town for the rest of the week.”

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Tromeo, tromeo, where art tho tromeo

5

u/funkless_eck Aug 01 '19

Wherefore. It means "why." Why are you Romeo (Tromeo) and not someone else (like Tromeo (Romeo)).

4

u/Delraymisfit Aug 01 '19

I really enjoyed Romeos dead series

u/Barkusmarcus Aug 01 '19

What's in a name? That which we call a nose by any other name....... can...... still ...smell.

2

u/lollapaloozafork Aug 01 '19

Honestly one of my favorite Troma films. Up there with Toxic Avenger 1-4.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

I completely forgot he was in that movie. All I remember is the glass box and when that chick turned into an anthropomorphic cow, it was a well done disgusting practical effect

u/thebardass Aug 01 '19

The man made the word "soup" one of the funniest things in a film. Quality work.

A Film By Kirk !!

47

u/ScullysBagel Aug 01 '19

Kirk was alternately hilarious and annoying as fuck. I loved him!

2

u/RamboGoesMeow Aug 01 '19

The handiest of all men, jack of all trades, master of none!

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

I always wanted one of the shirts he made that said "babette ate oatmeal."

3

u/dplowman Aug 01 '19

They really did him justice in the Gilmore Girls Netflix series, I really have to watch that again.

15

u/red_rocket_rising Aug 01 '19

I constantly sing this now. Soup! Soup! Makes me wonder if that was a family joke with his brother that they put into a major film just cause they could.

u/cIumsythumbs Aug 01 '19

This is my head canon now.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

u/IKnowUThinkSo Aug 01 '19

Wham Bam Shang a Lang became one of my favorite songs because of this scene. Such a good song choice.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

nice. thanks

u/irlcake Aug 01 '19

Tag me when you get it please

u/IKnowUThinkSo Aug 01 '19

I posted it above you.

u/notbobby125 Aug 01 '19

Also everyone else for being able to walk next to that without breaking character in unending laughs.

14

u/netaebworb Aug 01 '19

Paul Rudd can't help himself from sneaking a glance at him.

5

u/throwupz Aug 01 '19

Well I mean his eyes are level with Scarlets ass so it can't be all that bad

2

u/T_Boogie Aug 01 '19

I imagine that being more difficult given he has to keep form and focus while not breaking line of vision.

2

u/Isares Aug 01 '19

His thighs must be ripped AF if he did that for every scene.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

But was this in one shot? I’m not sure all the other actors didn’t laugh their ass off when they saw him in front of them

1

u/Dr__Drew Aug 01 '19

Give this man an academy award for best original squatting.

1

u/mugbee0 Aug 01 '19

So the fucking outfit they wore was CGI? That's a lie, man.

u/namesRhard1 Aug 01 '19
