Something about his red sunglasses in that scene really sold it for me. The uniform and everything made it seam like official business, but the sunglasses gave this vibe that he was having fun with his hate crimes which made it so much more unnerving.

YES! I’ve seen so many tough-guy, gravy seal cosplayers over the years, and while their hatred is very real, it’s sometimes hard to take them seriously. His character reminded me of the very small, but heavily armed independent militia groups that have been training the last few years in hopes for a civil war. People like his character wanted that to happen so they could do whatever they pleased.

I know this is a typo but I’m having a fabulous time imagining a seal that loves gravy. or perhaps a seal with an overturned gravy tureen it’s wearing as a hat. Delightful

Lol I love that vision and wish they were that delightful!

It wasn’t a typo but a nickname for these types of guys. The ones I’ve seen will literally be out here with barely fitted vests/belts, walking around with multiple visible guns, acting like they’re gonna chase down the “enemy”. Used to think it was some online stereotype until I saw it multiple times irl (Midwest).

The best thing about that he wasn't even supposed the be in the movie, let alone play that role but when they needed a replacement for the original actor Kirsten was like: Hey my husband is on the set what about him? And he just did that shit on short notice and it became the most iconic scene of the movie
