>make oscar bait movie based on real events about deformed ugly ass kid and how it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside >still make the kid in the movie a thousand times less repulsive and more cute than the real kid he's portraying
name one popular film where the ugly character is actually ugly
Nathaniel Powell
the real kid
Charles Rivera
The Elephant Man.
Matthew Bell
Huh
Joseph Baker
mask
Thomas Rivera
What a boring ass movie
Jackson Murphy
Mask
Andrew Flores
Oh they made a movie about that youtube Star Wars girl?
Lincoln Turner
I agree with you completely OP.
Christopher Nguyen
Glad to see Bruce Willis' daughter getting acting jobs
Ethan Martin
It's a real walking retarded Wojak. Meme magic strikes again.
Adrian Wright
he's Jewish, isn't he?
Landon Lopez
It's for the same reason retarded or autistic characters have to always have superpowers or something. Disabilities, deformities and abnormalities, will always have to be prettied up by Hollywood.
Parker Harris
Under The Skin
Hudson Martinez
That doesn't count. Scarlet Johansson was just miscast. Her character wasn't supposed to be ugly.
Hunter Perry
And after looking up the real guy again, they still prettied him up. Don't trust these kinds of movies my friends. Same goes for .
James Edwards
Ponyo?
Jeremiah Nelson
The Elephant Man
Jordan Flores
Once I saw the hollywood sanitized face I knew instantly the disorder it was based upon and shut the movie the fuck off. What motivates people to turn horror into cutesy bullshit.
Logan Lewis
Here's the real guy.
Christian Evans
wow they really found the perfect actor for the role
Alexander Rivera
The guy in Under The Skin was the actual guy
Henry Cruz
no matter how bad life gets, at least you weren't born with a facial deformity
David Kelly
...
Carson Butler
How would they have gotten those eyes without CGI though
Camden Cruz
why don't this people just suicide by ocean?
Ryan Campbell
The movie was made in 1980 though. I would say the makeup was about as accurate as they could have done while allowing the character’s speech to still be clear enough to understand. Apparently the real John Merrick spoke like he was gargling marbles but that wouldn’t have worked in the movie.
They portrayed his character more realistically in Meatballs, pic related.
Luke Edwards
Such a handsome boy. :) I bet the young ladies at school can't get enough of him!
Gabriel Rivera
David Bowie as Elephant Man is god-tier. Not even memeing, it's really good even without any makeup
what would you do if you were this disfigured? probably just an isolated live with some pets and just read, play video games and post shit online
Ethan Moore
I was just posting for people who may not have known. The makeup isn't far off actually.
Caleb Harris
So my current life
Jack Smith
This wasn't even close to being Oscar bait. It was released far too early and didn't have lofty aspirations or any sort of pedigree.
It is empathy porn for female audiences. The kid is clearly portrayed as shown so that he is clearly abnormal but not repulsive to look at like . It exists to milk money from the type of people who watch things like that "kid cries about his bullies" video from earlier in the year.
Angel Price
Hey look its brittney venti
Eli Nguyen
And then he walks over to me and he puts the blade in my mouth and says, “Let’s put a smile on that face!” and... why so serious?
Hunter Baker
Same shit I do now. Never leave my house.
Jonathan Thompson
fuck that is perfect
Ian James
I mean, plenty of people who function and look normal don't do jack shit with their lives who cares if a happy deformed child lives? Let them live their lives if they want.
Tyler Lewis
Id b8 people on Sup Forums about how theyre all betas and cant get a girlfriend and then when anons asked for a pic of myself i’d post a blurred photo of myself like that ogre on Sup Forums and then laugh hysterically after the (You)’s rained down
Ian Cox
National Geographic Determined What Americans Will Look Like In The Future... And It's Beautiful
Daniel Lee
>My mom deserves a standing ovation
Is this like the equivalent of a male power fantasy for women? Like a female emotion fantasy?
William Robinson
Looks like the boy from stranger things the pedos here love after having his face melted.
Anthony Cooper
kek
Caleb Thompson
Wow. Maybe the best acting I've ever seen.
Caleb Hall
kek, I'm going to hell
Dylan Cruz
Based as fuck, I would do that too.
Andrew Hall
wait, isn't the boy in the movie and in the book which was based on completely fictional? from wikipedia: >Palacio wrote Wonder after an incident where she and her three-year-old son were waiting in line to buy ice cream. Her son noticed a girl with facial birth defects and started to cry. Fearing he would react badly, Palacio attempted to remove her son from the situation so as not to upset the girl or her family but ended up worsening the situation. Natalie Merchant's song "Wonder" made her realize that the incident could teach society a valuable lesson. Palacio was inspired by Merchant's lyrics and she began writing. She named the book directly after the song, and used the song's chorus as the prologue of the first chapter.
Jose Gomez
I cried watching this
Jace Rivera
>we say peoplekind
Kevin James
Make money from it like that dude. Make a YT channel or go to Hollywood, get work as monster characters or novelty shit.
Truly ugly people fucking suck, and no one likes them. If you truly believe movies about fucked up people help them or are good you are surely mistaken. The movies only get made because non ugly people can take advantage and make a quick buck. Fuck uglies
William Morgan
Is it wrong that despite me feeling empathy for these people, it triggers my disgust response just by looking at them? As in it actually kind of makes me sick to look.
Do you think if I became familiar with someone like this it would go away over time?
Jayden Taylor
I AM NOT AN ANIMAL! I AM A HUMAN BEING!
Liam Green
Kek. This
Jordan Garcia
These are not ugly though these people are deformed. Big difference.
Jeremiah Lewis
>PLAY DOM JAT HOOOOMAN?
Ian Torres
wierd innit'
Carson Anderson
How do you make money to pay for that house?
Austin Smith
You mean Michael Berryman?
Matthew Bennett

Austin Adams
*throws acid at your face* oops you're a worthless human being now better kys kiddo
Hunter Perez
It's a natural reaction. Ugly or deformed people are undesirable in society from an evolutionary standpoint. You might stop being disgusted at him if you would learn that he can take care of himself, or that he brings something useful to the table (like having high IQ or telekinesis).
Brody Turner
Why these deformed folks are always male?
Ayden Lewis
The disgust response is natural inevitable. If regularly exposed, you could probably better suppress it given time and practice. Regardless, deformed people deserve your best attempt at respect and civility in spite of the reflex. It's certainly a tough situation for all involved.
John Brown
This. There are always two reactions you can have, disgust or pity. You can try and disguise them as respect or something else, but that's the truth.
William Harris
a male fetus starts out as a deformed female
Adam Edwards
incels and deformed men have share much of the same social isolation, yet nobody makes movies about incels
Kayden Turner
>let them mooch of the goverment for their entire lives they're happy! >booo stupid neets living off the goverment!
Women were a mistake.
Tyler Ramirez
>based on real events about deformed ugly ass kid But it's based on some fictional book you FUCKING RETARD. WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU ALL RETARDS FALLING FOR THIS PIECE OF SHIT BAIT. FUCK YOU
Owen Carter
Shyboys: ir is a great kinomentary on incels
Jonathan Baker

Aiden Cooper
>"I would fight in the front lines of the bloodiest battle the world has ever seen, come back with no limbs, if it guaranteed me an ugly fat chick"
what did he mean by this?
Luis Russell
This girl was getting attention a few years ago. I think she did a Ted Talks and it was weird for me because her voice is completely normal.
Carter Wright
*Shyboys: irl
Jordan James
La creatura..
Tyler Scott
It may be fictional but this kid was still the inspiration for how the main character should look.
Levi Mitchell
or you could become one of those motivational speakers, like that guy who was born with no legs and no arms
Dominic Young
la creatura..
Christopher Gonzalez
Urban White Trash was alpha as fuck
Christian Young
this. Anyone who thinks you are fucked up for thinking this is retarded
Xavier Davis
Males go through additional stages of development I think. More goes into making a male child, so more can go wrong.
Owen Ramirez
really?
Isaac Mitchell
our brains need more nutrients and development
Jace Bailey
Uggos and abnormies should be fucking gassed. Aktion T4 when?
Jordan Nelson
>he thinks gassing doesn't include him
Lucas Evans
I don’t know if it’s true but don’t all fetuses start as female or something? So if there’s more steps for a boy more shit can go wrong. Autism is almost entirely a male condition for example.
Dominic Nguyen
You were never going to see that money from the government anyway. I'm a NEET btw. Keep crying wagie.
Alexander Perez

Wyatt Cruz
...
Matthew Bell
not every treacher-collins kid look the same. Many of them undergo plastic surgery to improve functionaly and to look more normal. The boy in the movie already did dozens of surgeries before he started attending school
Dylan Watson
Just because someone was born with a facial difference doesn’t mean they’re intellectually disabled. Most are typically functioning. You guys are just assuming they have special needs because they look the way they do which is more ignorant than anything else. Also you guys RP’ing as nazi ubermensch os hilarious considering that if eugenics were a thing most of you out of shape useless virgins would probably be put down.
Joseph Cooper
This guy know this little nigga over here looking like Odo
Isaac Price
Underrated
Ayden Moore
my point exactly
Henry Wood
>Do you think if I became familiar with someone like this it would go away over time? Yes it would lessen dramatically, maybe go away entirely. Probably pretty quickly too, if you interacted with them frequently.
