For the love of god please stop making him eat non-stop


Yes, we absolutely understand. He's an obese guy who's "always hungry" but is still losing weight. Does he need to be eating in every single damn scene? Christ, the average viewer simply can't be stupid enough to think over an hour into the film that he's a fat guy on the inside.

He ate like a mutha *beep* lmao

Hey, it's a comedy. They're rubbing our faces in it. Plus it also made sense in movie terms that he ate the way he did and did so worse and worse, as he was desperately trying to gain weight.

The book was NOT a comedy. They made it comedic for the movie. I hated that they did that.

Unless you want him to die faster...yes

Also it's a film that's focused on weight

Third who cares

Only you

Ah man, if he'd made the movie, it would've been way too short because he would've done it dumb and made the guy die like after five minutes and the movie would've sucked. Hmm, I bet he hacks out scripts for Hollywood movies right now these days, the dumb bastard, thanks oh so much to him for the movies sucking hehehehehehe

The extra and enhanced sound effects when he was chowing down while sitting at the dining room table with his daughter was quite ridiculous, as well.


I just threw up a little in my mouth.

What the *beep*, he totally did, at the end of the movie--what is this you're bemoaning now!
Yes, we absolutely understand.
Pfft, of course you don't or you wouldn't have made this dumb thread.

What the hell did you think you might get in a film called Thinner given what it was about.  I'm pretty sure that's your fault, not the movie's hehehehehehe

Stranger embarrassing himself here beyond reproach. Kid can't read at even a 3rd grade level and instead of hiding it in shame, decided to showcase here on a public board. Poor kid, there's little doubt his parents are woefully ashamed of raising a dangerous retard.

Someone's extremely defensive and clearly can't take criticism, yet can clearly dish it out.
