This is when he was in The Princess Bride and when I think he first said "Inconceivable."
This is when he was in Clueless, as the teacher who got married in the end, because of a staged date that was set up by teenagers.
And this is him, closer to present day. He also has recently been on Gossip Girl and has played many animated voices such as:
The T-Rex in Toy Story
The Boss in The Incredibles
and many others.
Where did I see him? I saw him as I was walking out of the theater of Fantastic Mr. Fox (Highly Recommended) and there he was, green sweater, glasses, and bald head. Sigh. And what did I do? I stalked him around the corner. I found Anna and I walked around looking for him, turned the corner, saw the sweater, walked past him, looked at him, and he . . . LOOKED BACK AT ME STRAIGHT IN THE EYE! OH WOW WHAT I MOMENT! I WILL NEVER FORGET IT! HE LOOKED AT ME WITH A GRIN THAT SAID "That girl is obviously a fan, I think she might be the girl from the front door too. I think she might be stalking me." He is a classic man. And if you don't know his inconceivable lines I feel deeply bad for you, so here is a montage:
Well, I hope now that I have spent much time informing you on Wallace Shawn's amazingness you will appreciate him more. As for me, I am containing myself from jumping around the walls in excitement!
Molly, you crack me up. I can't believe you are old enough to be such a good writer. This was very clever and witty. You must be your father's daughter. Actually you get it from both sides. It all makes sense now.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I remember when Princess Bride first came out (I am old!!). We went around saying, "Inconceivable!" for months. Our other favorite line was, "Quit that rhyming and I mean it!" "Anybody want a peanut?"
