At least it'll be on Netflix so most people on here will check it out & I guess if you squint hard enough you could totally see the resemblance.

Too fat

Kevin James is a hack.
Leah Remini and Jerry Stiller carried his fat ass on that sit-com.
Speaking of fat it was James's fat head that got that show cancelled in the first place.

Nothing against James, I'm sure in private life he's a nice guy with redeeming qualities and all but IMO he's not very funny.

That follow up sit-com "Kevin Can Wait', two words come to mind.
Epic Failure.

"Mall Cop"
Yeah, that was a box office bonanza I tell you.

If that's the case, he should've gone with another one of his buddies he sticks in all his movies. Not as big of a name but more of a resemblance.

Should have cast Damian Lewis.

Seeing him in Billions, he could definitely do the angry coach speech, etc. He's got the growl down.

Ben Stiller would be another good choice.

Right?

"based on a true story" but for entertainmnet purposes some guy who's issued the largest bounty gets killed when 3 defensive players all go for the bounty at once.

There can be mid movie character struggles as the more ethical defensive players weigh whether or not to accept the bounties they earn on the field.

Once you've accepted a bounty, it's like killing a man, you're never the same.

Head office fights about bounty levels, it's made for the movies, or at least made for a made for TV movie.

The plot thickens....

I don’t really care one way or the other about Kevin James, but Paul Blart Mall Cop was actually very successful, and that’s why they made another one, and it was pretty successful as well.

I’ve seen the first one a few times with my daughter and it’s not terrible but the second one is one of the worst pieces of shit I’ve ever seen. But they’re pretty much kids movies, so I don’t think too much about them.

I do like in the first one where he gets drunk at karaoke and goes I BELIEVE IN MAGIC and rips his shirt off and falls through the window. Always good for a chuckle

texhooper · 06-15-21, 04:35 PM

Also, and I don’t know many details on this but there’s actually a Kevin James sitcom on Netflix right now, like produced by Netflix, so he’s probably got a contract with them and that’s the driving force behind this rather inexplicable casting decision. This may have been as good as they could do considering their roster

If the guy was a real actor, he would have lost 40+ lbs. Not even worth watching otherwise.

So the following are/were not real actors?
James Gandolfini
John Goodman
John Candy
Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Jack Black
Jeff Bridges

texhooper · 06-15-21, 06:21 PM

I think you mean Beau Bridges

Steve buscemi

stevenash · 06-15-21, 07:31 PM

I'd say Drew Carey too but he's not as fat as he looks.
