Rick Moranis assaulted in New York.


I hope they find the mofo and put him straight in a guillotine. No one touches an icon and gets away with it.

No disrespect to Mr. Moranis, but isn't the word "icon" thrown around a little too much? 🙄

reply

i generally agree.

and maybe for americans, he's not quite such a big deal.

but for canadians of my rough age who watched sctv as an original series, rick moranis was a really big deal. i'd say all the sctv cast has iconic status here.

reply

Damosuzuki is right. In Canada he is an icon. Even someone like Andrea Martin is an icon for us.

I AM AMERICAN...HE IS AN ICON IN MY HOUSE...SCTV,CHOSTBUSTERS,HONEY I SHRUNK THE KIDS,MY BLUE HEAVEN,PARENTHOOD,SPACEBALLS,LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS,STRANGE BREW,RETIRED TO TAKE CARE OF HIS KIDS WHEN HIS WIFE DIED...ICON.

reply

How nice for you.
Why are you SHOUTING?

reply

His caps lock is stuck. You get used to it after a while.

reply

Is there more to the story? Did the attacker target him of he just randomly assaulted the first person who saw him?

Also, Rick being 67 makes me feel so old! Hope he is alright.

reply

Looks like an opportunistic, random assault judging by the video.

reply

Thanks 👍.

reply

Police said it was unprovoked.

reply

He looks like Al Sharpton.

reply

It was a ghost mofo!

reply

Who you gonna call?

reply

Probably a Trump supporter. All they do is go around punching people.

reply

It was a black guy who sucker punched a smaller white guy. Sounds like BLM to me.

reply

I've seen people assaulted just for being Trump supporters. I hate Trump but I call it like I see it.

reply

Glad he wasn't much more seriously injured, that creep was pretty big

Blind siding anyone, especially a 67 year old totally unawares should get that lunatic a long lockdown under the strictest conditions

I do fear they'll catch him and he'll wind up serving the bare minimum, we've seen it before

reply

You mean like the way you blindsided me several times last night with your despicable, low-life insinuations about my enjoying the beautiful sounds of my neighbor children playing as part of a very serene ambience in my neighborhood. But that's always been your style... cheap, vicious, chickenshit, and now lunatic.

I know you're shallow and a snake, yukkers, but this is the lowest I've ever seen you go. And you're the guy that's constantly using the word "class" as if he somehow has ownership of that quality. You belong on that other site that you're always trying to appear so superior to because those are the kind of comments that get posted there. You're no better than those people at all. No wonder sslssg referred to this board as a "cesspool" recently. Your presence here is making it that way.

reply

Lots of words to say I hurt you...If you weren't a jerk I'd apologize😬

reply

You just reminded me that there are lots of vicious, no good people on the net. You glory in being a punk.

reply

A swing and a miss champ:/
I just like giving blowhards a rough time...your breakdown is amusing

reply

I know you meant you like giving blowjobs when you're getting drunk, alone in your garage, and you have a problem with "words". Lighten up. It's all in good fun.

reply

Wow, you're really grasping now...is the tough guy getting shook?

reply

Like "pretentiousness", which just doesn't apply to you, huh?

reply

A lame, defensive non-sequitur from a lame and injured man...get well soon db

reply

Wow. A big boy expression, thanks to that thesaurus, lol.

reply

Leaning on a clunker line you dropped the other day?

Dig deeper big dog, be mean and clever or go to the end of the line

reply

Sorry to interrupt, but how does someone give a blowjob if they’re on their own? I’m curious.

reply

I hear there is some stupid law in New York that could get people for crimes like this off pretty easy. I think Giuliani came up with it.

reply

I have no idea what these 'leaders' are up to but when you see very violent lunatics getting let out after two or three years it's a bit of a nervous feeling!

reply

I hope he can claim it as a tax expense.

reply

Why and how would Rick Moranis claim a violent, random assault as a tax expense Quasimodo?

reply

In ' Ghostbusters ' (1984) his character threw a party and conversationally informed one of his guests that he had claimed it as a business expense tax deduction.

reply

Aha!
