Was Brian Cox really drunk?


He looked so wasted!







Harry: Well yeah, there was like an 8% chance.
Perry: Eight? Who taught you math!

I think he's just a good actor. He trained months for that scene and studied with real drunks.

Study?

Spend a few days in a bar and you're a pro ;)

reply

Yeah by the looks of him in the movie he studied pretty good for at least 4 hours just prior to shooting that scene

reply

I think the whole cast was doing a little method acting.

Lemon curry?!

nah man he lived with alcoholics and took notes and everything, he really gets in to his roles.

Don't you recognize a fakepost when you see one?

That's a bit extreme, he wasn't playing an alcoholic, he was the just playing a drunk hard working man.

Wanna see the coolest Brian Cox movie ever made? It's called "Red" (2008)

I think this one flew under the radar and didn't get the recognition it deserved. Check it out, such a great film. Brian Cox is amazing in it!!

Super Troopers is my favorite Brian Cox movie. You can have your Bourne and X-Men (the original Stryker pre-X-Men Origins).

While I'm sure it was acting on camera, hanging out with the BL guys I'm sure he had plenty of practice.

BTW, the scene in the beginning when Mac takes 4 shots of liquor ... I don't recommend doing this. Especially when the only liquor you have in the house is Bacardi 151. Only took ten minutes before it came back up. Probably a good thing, would have been a wicked hangover otherwise.

reply

I could understand the Bacardi 151 making you sick, but I can chug a half pint of 80 proof liquor like it's nothing. Hell, even just 4 shots of Bacardi 151 is nothing. I did 3 shots of Golden Grain which is 195 proof after drinking about 12 cups of beer from a keg and drinking several cups of hunch punch.

Wow, talk about being late to the party. That post was two years old lmao.

And to answer your question, no, I'm 26. I was 24 when I wrote that post.

They were probably all drunk. They were given a general script to follow but 80% of it was their own drunken improvisation.
