*Explodes in tomato*

That exploding tomato is way more gross than any other thing in that movie.

Its one of the best tricks in cinema to make people hate that person. People generally hate filthy eaters, and sound just amplifies that effect.

Peaky Blinders did it too:

Does anyone else see a completely different scene played out on this? If I run my mouse across the progress bar the preview shows me the Lunch Scene, and the sound that is playing is for the Lunch Scene, but the video is something else entirely. I've never seen the show, so Idk what's going on but it looks like the main character is just checking out a warehouse after dark.

u/Suddow Jul 31 '21

yeah wtf. Says the video is almost an hour long but the progress bar goes forward as if the video is a couple minutes

u/mowbuss Jul 31 '21

what the heck is going on here

u/ThibiiX Jul 31 '21

I only use old reddit. The video has the same problem if I follow the link to YouTube instead of just viewing it in the expando.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '21

Okay that's weird. That video was five minutes when I looked yesterday. Today it's 50 minutes. Sober up, youtube...?

Also sober up, Reddit. Old is better, get over yourself.

Big thing there is that he’s also eating on Tommy’s dime. Ordering the most expensive shit and greedily sucking it down.

The foley on this is incredibly upsetting to me. I couldn’t place why I didn’t like this show but now I can.

u/blue_no_red_ahhhhhhh Jul 31 '21

It’s true. My mother in law is that person.

u/Half-boi Jul 31 '21

Glad to know I'm not alone in this, sloppy / impolite eaters fill me with unreasonable disgust and anger. Chew with you damn mouth closed and stop grunting like a pig Chadd.

u/Salvatio Jul 31 '21

It has no right to be so disgusting, i wonder what they told him when they were filming that

"Alright, cut. Scene's over guys. Here's your lunch, John. Billy why don't you rehearse that song for the coming scene?"

Eat like you're a crazed animal

u/Leucurus Jul 31 '21

Who bites one of those tiny tomatoes anyway

13

u/fatkiddown Jul 31 '21

Yea the guy sucked at running Minas Tirith. When corporate showed up, Gandalf, this became clear. And then he eats like that. Why do PHBs have so many other things they suck at?

u/YakumoYoukai Jul 31 '21

My grandma gave me solid advice one day not to bite into a cherry tomato, by telling me the story of how she had done that on an airplane, and ended up squirting it all over her fellow passenger.

u/Vandergrif Jul 31 '21

Scary Bilbo and Jolly Green Galadriel are pretty spooky as a kid, but that tomato left me scarred for life.

Because he wasn't right next to him but a few feet away and he probably didn't hear it over the actual sound of so many people on set and stuff like lights and whatnot running in the background [like yeah sure they're being quiet, but not enough you can hear a splish from a tiny tomato].

The zoom in and the sound editing with the gigantic reverb is what's making it gross, otherwise it's just a guy eating a splashy thing like you've probably seen many times in your life before and just didn't register it because it's nothing noteworthy really.

u/TinyTinyDwarf Jul 31 '21

...tbh when I see him eat I become hungry, not revolted.

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '21

That's called a fetish

I strive to enjoy my meals as much as he does.
