Is it me or is Adam Driver's whole career based on "look at it from the asshole's point of view!"

Another good one is the heist comedy, Logan Lucky. He playsa one-handed, veteran bartender who is heist leader Channing Tatum’s brother. Again, his delivery is hilarious. You’ll never hear the word “cauliflower” in your head the same way.

Just noting that I watched this last night on the recommendation - definitely worth the watch.

Glad you liked it!

The first thing I saw Adam Driver in was the romantic comedy, What If (aka The F Word). He plays the best friend of Daniel Radcliffe’s protagonist, who is navigating being friend-zoned by Zoe Kazan. Driver is hilarious, stealing every scene he’s in.

I just watched this. It was quite entertaining. It was fun seeing (and hearing) Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, and Daniel Craig affect their West Virginia accents.

Added: I see I’m not the only one. Thanks, @garygnu .

Like several others in this thread, I also followed your recommendation for Logan Lucky and quite enjoyed it. The actors’ performances and dialog delivery really made the movie.

What’s up with that? I might have missed something while I was in the kitchen. Did “cauliflower” refer to something in particular, or is the joke that it’s so random?

IIRC, it’s the family’s code word for planning a job and they’re recruiting. Plus, it’s a funny sounding word.

See Harrison Ford in Apocalypse Now and he greatly resembles Driver.

I found this comparison photo, which is pretty amusing:

I mean, they did play father and son.

According to my genealogist sister, Adam Driver and I are 4th cousins once removed. We share a great-great-great grandmother.

He has a TED talk about his transition from Marine to actor, and his nonprofit “Arts in the Armed Forces”, which brings theater to the military.

Great example! It was the only thing is seen of his before Star Wars: The Force Awakens. When he took the helmet off, I literally burst out laughing in the theater.

Adam Driver as…Dark Helmet.
