Awesome actor

He's in a lot of movies in a smaller role and I'm always happy to see him. At first he was just "that guy" but now he's becoming one of my favourites. Shea fucking Whigham.

I've only seen him in Wristcutters, but I thought he hit all the right notes there. The movie would have been poorer without him.

I saw Wristcutters back when it came out and i remember liking it but I don't remember that he was in it at all, but he wasn't on my radar back then.

I just checked and Will Arnett is In too, another guy I've grown to love since. I should rewatch Wristcutters.

He was the best part of Splinter. I just rewatched it the other day and I had forgotten how much I liked him.

[–] olioz (3678) 5 years ago

Splinter is propably the first thing i remember him from. It was pretty good.

YES!..SPLINTER IS A SPECIAL FLICK TO ME...NOT ONLY IS IT AWESOME BUT IT INTRODUCED ME TO TWO IMPORTANT THINGS...SHEA,WHO IS ALWAYS AWESOME.AS WELL AS MAGNET..ANY FILM RELEASED BY MAGNET IS WORTH WATCHING AND MOST ARE DOWNRIGHT BADASS.

He's fantastic in Perry Mason. Easily the best thing in it.

[–] olioz (3678) 3 years ago

I didn't know he's in that. Maybe I should give it a try.

[–] DoctorThirteen (13995) 3 years ago

I recommend it. I like the whole show, but he really is something special.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

He is one of those actors that I have never seen turn in a bad performance. He can do it all, too.

[–] olioz (3678) 3 years ago

Yes he definitely is one of those actors. I just watched Small Engine Repair and he was excellent in it.
