Always loved Schreiber in this scene. When I first saw he was in this, it felt like such a weird choice and I kinda expected him to mail it in a little. But holy cow, I became such a fan of his after this role. I'll watch anything he does now. He embodies the grizzled old vet role so well. Goon is a fun as hell movie anyway, the national anthem bit is one of the funniest things ever, but Schreiber definitely stole this movie.

Great scene, Liev Schreiber always has such a powerful presence on screen
Two things, man. Don’t touch my Percocets, and do you have any Percocets?
Haven’t seen the film but pretty strong resemblance to the Di Nero/Pacino diner scene in Heat (1995), no?
“You know, we’re sitting here… you and I, like a couple of regular fellows. You do what you do, and I do what I gotta do. And now that we’ve been face to face… if I’m there and I gotta put you away, I won’t like it. But I’ll tell you… if it’s between you and some poor bastard… whose wife you’re gonna turn into a widow… brother, you are going down.”
Goon is my favorite sports movie.
This is probably the objectively best scene, but the whole movie is fantastic. It was a blind watch and I was blown away
This movie delivers on so many levels. A legit gem
heated rivalry (straight)
Who’d win a fight in their prime? #69 Doug “The Thug” or #69 Shoresy?
