I mean, he's clearly a troll.

That post has all the makings of a 12 year old incel getting his rocks off seeing people react to him.

The strange thing is he got the plot of the movie totally wrong. It's about townspeople being harassed out of their town in order to make way for a railroad. The "Jew" and the "Black guy" both come to the assistance of the townspeople and prevent their town from being torn down.

Leslie Nielson was actually a dramatic actor to begin with.

Yeah, before Airplane! I think he was firmly a dramatic actor.

Liam Neeson has pretty good comedic skills. I like that casting choice, feels different which is good, but not completely different which is also good. And that coffee joke is pretty funny. I guess that's why they put it there twice?

Other than that the trailer isn't anything special.

Neeson also stole the show in The Lego Movie with his deadpan humor. Well Neeson and Will Arnett. That movie was much better than it had every right to be.

Maybe I just have a rational hatred of Liam. Not as bad as my old co-worker who almost went John Wick on me when I changed his desktop to a picture of Liam, but enough.

A rational hatred? Point on the pickle where the Taken movie hurt you.

Lol. Of all the actors to dislike, why Liam Neeson? He’s always been a solid, dependable actor and seems like a good dude.

He's like, the guy that lives two doors down. He's probably fine or whatever, but I never want to see him in a movie.

Neeson definitely can carry himself in that deadpan comedic role the same way as Lloyd Bridges and Leslie Neilson.

He's also known for losing his sh**. Hopefully, they have a scene where he loses it over something very mundane.
