Hand made edible locust?


Hi

In one of the extras it is commented that they hand made edible locusts, and each took ages to make and were quite expensive. A typical example of hollywould gone mad! Locusts are edible! no need to make fake ones.

If it was a method actor, maybe... but I'm pretty sure they made the fake locusts in order to keep Viggo from wanting to toss his guts or something. Personally, I would opt to eat fake ones over a real one if it was me.

Hi

There's nothing wrong with the real ones, I've eaten them many times, they're not bad at all.

WOW! A real idiot. Be proud, pal. Do you just post rubbish here or on other boards, too?

Touchy about it, too, I see. Well, eat a bug and feel better.
See Ya!

Did you ever notice that people who believe in creationism look really un-evolved?

Does that give you an idea of your worth? It should.

Hi

Get a life, troll.
LOL coming from somebody with no life (or intelligence apparently), who is trolling a thread I started.
Oh, and eat some more bugs, while you are at it.
Nice come back, no idea how anybody could compete with that LOL

I know this thread is old now, but this argument made me laugh to the point where I realized I needed a life.

But anyway I'm not surprised that they created fake ones. Though as Molly-31 said, I don't think it would bother Viggo too much if he had to eat one - I'm guessing they didn't ask beforehand. Or maybe he refused, who knows, can't say I'd blame him though.

only troll i see is you. a rather pathetic one at that.
i'll prolly come back to this board in about a year so i'll most likely see your day old reply then.

reply

You're the troll. You don't seemed fazed that this started with you suggesting this person was an "arsonist" for eating locusts.

reply

I can't imagine eating real locusts would bother Viggo very much, he's pretty outdoorsy and used to all that kind of things, sort of like Harrison Ford. He probably knows all the stuff you can and can't eat in the wild.

Let's just say that God doesn't believe in me.

reply

*shudder* Well, it sucks that they were expensive and time-consuming to create realistically, but not even for sweet artistic integrity would I eat a real locust. Even if I weren't vegetarian. So I think it's perfectly understandable why that would've been necessary to do for...well, probably a lot of, if not most, actors. I'd do it just out of consideration for them. xD

I like you, Um. I like largeness...

You are a freak who eats bugs like a lizard. Just because you eat *beep* doesn't mean normal people want to. Smh. Freak.
