tinhuvielartanisSo, this conversation, or a pretty close approximation, was had earlier today after I showed Diane my 10 Epic Seconds of Liam Neeson I'd been saving for her.
She cackled.
"See?" I said. "This should prove that I really do love Liam Neeson. I just like to see him get his giant arse kicked by men smaller than him."
"What? Darth Maul ain't small."
"He's about a head shorter than Liam Neeson, with the horns and the hood."
"What? No way."
"Way."
"Show me."
I pull up my Kicking Giant Arse music weedio. She watches.
"Damn! You're right! Well, what does he really look like?"
"You've never seen Ray Park?" I asked, disbelieving what I thought I was hearing. I was hearing right.
"No!"
"Ohhhh, let me show you him!" And I played for her the Wushu Goodness video that I keep on tap, thanks to some kind soul who compiled all the footage. But it never really shows his face. So, I told her I'd show her my favourite pic of him sans the Maul make-up.
I show her.
"Okay," she said. "Stop joking around. I know you're on about Tim Roth, but I want to see Ray."
"That is Ray."
"You just let me borrow Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead, Tracy. That's Tim Roth."
"No," I said. "What are you on about?"
And I pull up a R&GRD picture. And put it beside my Ray picture. And...
Well.
She cackled.
"See?" I said. "This should prove that I really do love Liam Neeson. I just like to see him get his giant arse kicked by men smaller than him."
