Poll - was Russ, Ross?

[Ray]

I missed the thread but what did SNARO stand for? I know it stood for
Schwimmer _____________ As Ross's Opposite. But what does the N stand for?
Thanks,
Ray

Oops. I should have read more before posting. SNARO -- maybe the N is
for nose, as in Schwimmer's Nose as Ross's Opposite. But Snaro just
sounds like Schnarro, a term I've heard used for someone with a big
nose. (My memory lapsed and I said Schnozzy before. Please forgive me!
Eek!)

I agree, the lips of Russ didn't quite match up with his voice.

It was Ross (David Schwimmer) that played Russ...it said so in
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY....

I hate when people nonchalantly flame others for honest mistakes so I
will refrain from calling either of you goober heads.
The actor is obviously David with a fake chin and a wig. I admit I
was debating for a while until I realized how much lighter the chin
was than the rest of his face. Anyone see if another actor was listed
in the closing credits?

Of course Russ was Ross.They would never find anyone that identical to
him.

Russ was Ross the special effect were not too convincing. They used split
screen.

Just some things I noticed about the split screen. The seqence when
Chanler is sitting between Russ and Ross. First Chanler was sitting near
Ross and there was a gap between him and Russ. This is where the split
the screen. If you taped it you can see that you can draw a strait line
without hitting anyone. After a couple of close shots there Chanler was
sitting near Russ. Now there was a gap between him and Ross. There they
split the screen again.

When Rach looked at them both and said Oh my God (i think). She was on
Ross' side. There they split the screen.

In the complicated angle shots you will always notice that one character
is not looking at the camera.

The newspaper hitting scene was pretty good. Here they had Russ shot
hit Ross with his paper. It looked real. In actual fact Russ hit some
prop or some other person. They then filled Ross in that exact spot with
the aid of computer technology. From all the scenes that was high tech.
With high tech there is money so they did it once.

What made the effects great overall was the fact that they kept on
alternating them. The split screen was placed in several locations. There
was also alternation of stand in actors. It was great.

I think it was Disney who said that you must alternate the special
effects so that people won't figure it out.

I can't wait to see the special one-hour show of Friends. I really
hope that it's worth the hype. Frankly speaking, I am tired of seeing
the previews of this Sunday's episode and how they have promoted it to
be the best episode yet. I do hope that it lives up to everybody's
expectations since we Friends watchers do deserve a good one after all
the reruns and some so-so episodes we had to watch.

Well, enjoy the show!!!
