Hahahahahaha holy s**t I'm so happy. Rather than bring in a fan or wind machine, some studios hire people to dress up like a green Putty and flip some model's hair all day long. And then they spend the whole drive home trying to figure out what to say when people ask them what they do for a living.

It's not just shampoo commercials that utilize this completely ridiculous technique. It's also how they make Superman's cape flap.

Oh, and while those two guys are working the marionette strings? This is also going on:

Those guys were hired to shoot air directly up at Superman and also stare at his junk (it's a confidence thing, all actors use it).

The fact that Brandon Routh maintained a straight face while two f*****g green men were puppet-mastering in the background is the only argument I need to demand an Academy Award for him. Those guys were on set all day in some giant green void waving their hands around like assholes while a nearby director was yelling "Flappier! Flappier goddammit!"

Here's what it was like on set:

Is everyone else also having the best day ever?

I actually give those kids a lot of credit. I haven't seen any of the Twilights yet, but I imagine that if the actors had laughed through the entire movie, I would have heard about that. I have to assume they did SOME takes where they didn't laugh at the fact that the big, scary werewolf was a doofus in a full-body condom, and that takes some real acting chops.

I'll try not to spoil too much about the end of Breaking Bad beyond saying that it is heavy. It was never exactly a light-hearted show, but in the early seasons they at least had a few moments of relief and levity. By the final season, the worst characters just got worse and the characters that brought some level of lightness to the show were either dead or emotionally broken. But, hey ... look at Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul right now.

And look at them here! At a Halloween party!

Walter White is an emotional cancer that spreads and poisons anyone unfortunate enough to come across his path ... but look at him here!

It's not just that these images take my mind off the drama of Breaking Bad by reminding me that it's fictional, it also represents one of the purest and most love-filled relationships I've ever seen. Look at how much respect, admiration, and love these two phenomenal performers have for each other!

I was the kind of kid who would watch Pete & Pete and say, "I hope they're actually buddies in real life!" A thought that I also held for the characters in Animaniacs. I've grown up a bit, but glimpses of that little kid still show up for me. Except now it's less about hoping fictional friend characters are actually friends and more about my hope that the people working on a show or movie got as much enjoyment out of making it as I did watching it.

D'aaaaaaw.

And the kid goddamn loves it.

There's not much to it. It's just the nicest man in the world being nice to a nervous little boy that is built out of cuteness and leftover puppy parts. Osment is freaking 5, there are cameras in his face, and he's sitting next to one of the best actors alive, nervous as all hell, and this further demonstrates that Hanks is just the nicest, coolest dude in the world. Just hangin' out, making a 5-year-old laugh.

They giggle about the shirt for a while, and then the director yells cut, which is insane, because what was this a rehearsal for? Was there a scene in the original script for Forrest Gump where Forrest and his son hang in a dark warehouse making fun of people? They were wise to cut that scene, if so.

"Life is like a box of- HA! Check out that idiot's stupid f*****g hat! What a joke."
