I dunno....he wasn't as bad a Thomas Hayden Church, but I still had a loathing on for him.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
How bout as Harvey Pekar? I don't actually remember that movie very well, possibly he was punchable.
I think my attitude towards the writing in Leverage: Redemption is essentially that it is like someone gave a seminar on How To Write Leverage and the final projects were filmed. Everyone probably passed, they got the needed elements in for the most part, but not a lot of A+ work. And probably episode 5 is where I settled into that, which is why I like it

I didn't see that one. I'm hoping he has more unpunchable movies than punchable movies, and that I just statistically happened to see the punchable ones.

I liked it when I saw it, but that was quite a while ago. I don't remember any detail to allow for a real recommendation. I am pretty sure it's where Giamatti came to my attention, fwtw

I've never seen Giamatti in an unpunchable role either, so odds aren't looking good.

I think that Paul Giamatti is pretty good at being punchabke, but in my head he is just like my geeky friend Phil.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We watched Jungle Cruise last night and can report that Giamatti is *extremely* punchable in this role.
(The movie itself is kind of aggressively fine, in the style of Disney live action family movies from the 80s. It's not trying too hard to be hip and modern, which was a nice change.)

Rule of Thumb: if you have to try to be hip and modern, you aren't ... and won't be.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I don’t remember wanting to punch John Adams in the face, but I can’t rule it out
That's a bold character choice when playing one of our most canonically punchable founding Fathers.
