Does anyone else remember his "let me be frank" video he put on YouTube, I think it was at Christmas time. It was literally the most bizarre thing I have ever seen, but nobody seemed to think it was that weird at the time. It still gives me the heebies. Just been reminded of it, at the time I had to check I was real reality. Life is strange as fuck.

Just put it on now. Seems like a kitchen sink soliloquy, directed at the viewer as though we knew each other, regarding a rather illusory topic.

I think he is a brilliant actor.

Did this go up before the accusations/trial?

In terms of weird and wonderful Internet content, this seems pretty straightforward tbh!

The odd putting on of the ring and the royal cup? Seemed pretty coded to me.

I thought it was some kind of threat. Directed at whom, I don't know.

Definitely creepy as fuck.

Really? Why was that?

What do you think you know that a jury didn't?

Its really good. I have never seen that short and didn't finish the series. I think I lost interest after season 2. I missed all the shenanigans when he got fired and Robin Wright / his wife took over as president. I quite enjoyed house of cards. I can understand he was asking for his job back.

It did seem quite threatening, so bizarre.

That's because it's done in the style of Frank Underwood.He has the same monologues and mannerisms during the series. The ring is a ring from the show. Oh there's plenty of innuendos and double meanings , but it's in "character".

Show quote history

Seriously it was pretty obviously a threat. Putting it on YouTube was a ballsy move, I guess he didn't want to end up as a suicide with 2 gunshot wounds to the back of the head.

He's pretty Teflon. I guess he might make a comeback.

What does that have to do with anything?

I guess nobody else seems to think it's bizarre. Totally normal. No wonder I don't agree with people.

Why don't you explain what you find creepy and threatening about it? Not being snarky.

I have only just heard about it. It's old news. I'm not sure what's to be gained bringing it up now. If he tries to make a real comeback I can't see anyone casting him. I suppose people would watch him as he's a very good actor and people would forget what he's done. But I think he's finished.
