That. was. hysterical.

I don't think she's nuts. I think she's very, very smart and quick-witted.

This.

I think she's remarkably self-aware (for an actor). But she just has a thing for sloths. :) And like she said, she's a cryer.

I doubt she's an emotional wreck. She just happens to be a very attractive and smart girl who wears her emotions on her sleeve. It's endearing.

I think both the FOD video and the sloth story are very funny. I also think both are equally true. (In other words, I think she is having fun with Ellen; I don't think it's a true story, "video documentation" notwithstanding).

The Funny or Die clip (while awesome) doesn't cinch anything.

She's an actress. If she couldn't pull off something like that she'd be a pretty crappy actress.

The question is -is- she acting in the whole sloth thing or is it legit? She certainly could be, but my gut instinct is that it's legit.

DreadPirateRob

02-01-2012, 12:56 PM

I'm not too sure about that.

She's a very smart girl. She's a very good actress. She has a wicked sense of humor. She's not afraid to make fun of herself. Put all those together, and I think you have the ability to create something which maybe is grounded in truth (i.e. she's a cryer, she wears her emotions on her sleeve) but is elevated to ridiculous levels for a laugh.

That clinched it for me - she's joking around. Reminds me of the match.com video profile of the girl who loves cats.

Last night I had a dream about the FOD video - I dreamt that she really did have the tattoos, and that I went to the same studio where she got them so I could get some of my own. Of all the various stuff that happened to me yesterday, the FOD video is what my unconscious mind decided needed further processing?!

She's a very smart girl. She's a very good actress. She has a wicked sense of humor. She's not afraid to make fun of herself.

These are the reasons that she's Craig Ferguson's favorite guest (and is a guest on his show several times a year).

She's about the only guest, at least the only female one, who can keep up with Ferguson and match his inspired silliness tit-for-tat.

Between 20 and 30 years ago, Teri Garr was this to David Letterman.

Let's not forget that Dax was also one of the originals on Punk'd. I don't think they would be together if she wasn't capable of doing some punking herself.

That's kind of where I'm at. I wasn't sure about the video; it didn't seem like she was *really* crying. But she was on set when Ellen made her think a sloth was really coming out.

That's not to say she wasn't acting. The whole thing may have been an act. But I still think she's smart as a whip. And adorable.

I think Kristen is smart as hell, and cute as anything, and definitely has a wicked sense of humor that I love. I think the sloth thing is mostly put-on. I think she does stuff like this, "fake intimacy" with the audience, as a weird (but effective) way of keeping her real private life private.

But I also think there's no doubt she would be very high-maintenance as a partner, regardless of how much of these videos are fake.

Yeah, I think Kristen is one of those in Hollywood that gives good talk show. (Tom Hanks is another... I doubt he could ever have a bad appearance on a talk show.) I'm pretty certain this whole thing is completely and totally a shtick just for the talk show appearance.

You can be very smart, very witty, and very bat-poop crazy. I think Oscar Wilde was super intelligent, quick witted, and out of his mind at the same time. Same case with KB IMO. She's fun to be around when she isn't in overdrive I would guess.

Interesting I wonder what caused it. I wonder if her and Dax decided they wanted some other place and since it is purchased as a "trust" and she lost money on it since the real estate slide decided to let it go. Would not affect her or Dax's credit just be a business decision like so many banks do with buildings just let the other bank they owe money to to foreclose on it.

DevdogAZ

02-14-2012, 10:48 AM

According to that article, she's been out of the house for quite a while. Pretty sure it was a strategic default rather than continuing to dump money into a house bought near the peak of the bubble.

That's great. Can't believe they got their goal so quickly. Here's hoping they get several million more so they can make the movie even more awesome.

Edit: In light of the post just above GiGi's, does that mean they shot the Kickstarter video many months ago? Im guessing she'll want to be at least two months post-delivery when they film the movie, and if they're planning to shoot in June, then she's got to be about 8 months pregnant at this point.

DreadPirateRob

03-15-2013, 01:02 AM

Yeah, they filmed the Kickstarter video last spring, when they had vague hopes of possibly filming during her summer hiatus from House of Lies last year. But then WB wanted to take a longer look at it, and sat on the idea until recently. From the excellent Alan Sepinwall (http://www.hitfix.com/whats-alan-watching/exclusive-veronica-mars-creator-rob-thomas-on-the-wildly-successful-kickstarter-movie-campaign#jRxVsQG52yZKWJiE.99) interview posted in the other thread:

That was more than a year ago, and Thomas came very very close to convincing Warner Bros. to give him permission to try it at the time, in hopes they would film during Kristen Bell's hiatus after the first season of "House of Lies." But studio executives backed off, preferring to have their attorneys go over the possibilities with a fine-toothed comb to ensure they weren't exposing themselves to legal action by teaming with Kickstarter.
