I thought this was pretty awesome. Please don't let this become some sort of political debate thread, that wasn't my intention. The video explains itself.

Harrison Ford would be the first to speak his mind.
:cool:

I apologize if this has been posted before, but Zach Braff only just posted a bulletin with it on his myspace, so I'd assume it is pretty new.

I really dug that. Is it dumb and/or wrong that what Doogie said touched me? Like genuinely?

I mean...it is NPH. He ride unicorns.

No. I found what he said to be the most...human, of the comments. It really made me feel bad for the position he (and many others) are in.

Harrison Ford was another standout. When he got pissed, you felt how awesome his presence is. He probably made a few of the crew piss themselves.

Good find.

Wait, was this not scripted? When I first saw it, I assumed all the actors were in on it. This time, I'm not so sure. Does anyone know?

If it wasn't scripted, Harrison Ford went up even higher in my books today. Which is a triumph.

Actually Rini, this one's the sequel.

Oh, yeah, I know. When I said "similar," I didn't mean "same." I just figured since they were together they could share a thread (especially in case anyone hadn't seen the first one).

What?! Don't go over there! It's dangerous. I heard there were mountain lions.

What'd you think of that/those episode(s), by the way? I was not very impressed. (I guess we should take this conversation to the South Park thread if it's going to go anywhere.)

I thought that video was great, but this is one of those situations where Borat makes things worse.

So wait, that was sarcasm, so they don't want me to vote?

I'm so proud for Indy. He finally stood up for himself, and didn't get raped.

That was really neat, I think the actors were genuinely confused.

Yeah, I'm going with scripted, too. I mean, I'm pretty sure some of those people were in the last one, as well.

My vote goes to scripted.

I'm split. Some of them seemed to know what was up, others seemed to be in the dark. It could all be an act...they are actors after all. But I choose to believe Harrison Ford didn't, and he's just a hardass. :D

Yeah, but he has dreadful taste in women. That said, he can still pull any woman he wants.

The concept behind this one is that they don't know of the first one and they bring in new people to spread the same message "Don't Vote" without telling them the ending statements. I think that they are genuinely confused at first, but catch on when they are told to use sarcasm and Ford is just... slow.

I don't believe it's real at all. Not for a minute. It doesn't take away from the message, though, does it?

I still don't know who I will vote for in the Presidential race, but when I've weighed everything and made up my mind, I will damn sure get there and do it.

Yeah, I think it's scripted too. Watching it again, I can see that a few of them are just trying to be funny. Not natural funny.

I never entertained the thought that it wasn't scripted... I'm confused.

I never entertained the thought that it wasn't scripted... I'm confused.

Some people just have to believe actors (and musicians, etc.) aren't just money-hungry puppets, essentially playing a role even when they aren't in a movie. I tend to figure the only time they aren't "on script" is when they're chucking a phone at someone's head...but even that is suspect.

But, hey, whatever helps them sleep at night. :D
