I actually disliked Frank Grillo the most lol. He was just kind of too swarmy and smug for me these days. I like my heroes to be a little less smug.

Read swarmy as swarthy and did a real double-take.

... actually, what the hell does swarmy mean?

He's swarthy, smarmy, AND swarmy. Got those dark features, a salesman's insincerity, and oh yeah, he's made of bees.

Congrats to the animators who got to work on what is clearly every animation dork's dream project.

He wrote and directed several episodes.

He was already an active figure in the NZ film and TV industry as an actor, and he started big with Scarfies, which was a pretty big film in an NZ context in 1999 (apparently called Crime 101 in the US. "Scarfies" is a very regional term in Dunedin, referring to University of Otago students who often wore blue and yellow scarves in support of the Otago provincial rugby team, so I get why there was a title change, but Crime 101 is a pretty poo poo title), and frequently crossed paths with Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, who were getting bit part roles on TV shows.

The NZ film and TV (and stage) industry is incredibly small and basically everyone knows each other, even prior to Flight of the Conchords, Waititi and Clement frequently crossed paths - a notable example being Waititi appearing in the film Tongan Ninja, which Clement co-wrote and starred in.

He's doing a lot more soundtrack work, and it looks like he's content just hanging around in Wellington.

I think it might be a mix of drug abuse and steroids. He seemed to disapper for a bit amid drug rumors and resurfaced looking leathered

This happened for me during the trailer for The Fanatic. Hunter Hunter took it even further. I legit thought he resembled Gerard Butler is some shots of that.

In the early 2000s, Devon Sawa was asked to vacate his hotel suite at The Sutton Place in Vancouver due to "unsanitary conditions".

I'm just glad he's working again. He's very good in Hunter Hunter and the Chucky tv show.

I was kind of thinking the same thing since it looks like 90s Disney tv, but I guess it's whatever. I'm sure the kids will like it.

Looks fine to me. Obviously they wouldn't replicate the painstakingly hand drawn animation of the original game but it looks like a decent enough facsimile.
