Walton Goggins walk


To me it looks like he modeled Cooper's walk after Timothy Olyphant. I will have to go back and watch to see if walked like that in the past. never noticed before.

I NEVER NOTICED OLYPHANT HAVING A DISTINCT WALK...I WILL HAVE TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION NEXT TIME I SEE HIM.

They both have swagger, and epitomize cool. And when they’re together in Justified, man oh man that’s the best.

reply

He walks like this in Vice Principals too. Tho it's even more pronounced.

reply

They both need to learn how to walk like a real man: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8OQIQLPypI&t=14s

Proper No. 12!

Exactly how does a "real Man" walk?

reply

Didn't you watch the video?

reply

Yes, I did, and, yes, I get that your post was supposed to be a joke.
I was just questioning how one perceives is the "correct" walk for a real man to do? Another one of those ideas drummed into a boy's head when he is young how certain things that "real Men" do. It's an outdated idea. If it gets you from "point A to point B". That's all that matters.
Besides, I think that Macgregor's walk is for the ring. Considering that he is one of the most powerful fighters in the MMA, I can understand him walking like that to psych out his opponent.

There are such ways, especially if you want to be a leader or salesperson, the way to dress, the smile, the walk, the handshake, etc. They all need to be practiced, some even take acting lessons.

But sadly that wasn't something I learned or interested, I was a software engineer, doing mostly back-end work, but my boss once mentioned such things. And I noticed the high level executives all have their styles or persona, and the more high up they were, the better they dressed, and more charming and smooth the way they behave.

It is a skill.

I always wondered whether they had time to learn anything else.

reply

I agree. It is a learned skill - if being a corporate worker is your thing. But, the average Joe doesn't concern himself with that sort of thing (A group of which I am a member). I wonder how Connor's walk would go over in a corporate environment?

reply

Connor? If you mean Cooper, his walk is definitely the walk of a back end staff.

reply

No, I meant Conor as in Conor Macgregor in the video link you posted. I am afraid I added 1 too many "n"s to his name. My mistake.

reply

His walk won't do either.

The walk shows some of the personality, it should be relaxed, nonthreatening, confident and comfortable with your surroundings, which shows you are a smart and popular person.

Here's a theme song for this thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jNwKhGB7aA

I think he has some sort of deformity in his legs/gait and it's quite feminine. Distracting.

reply

That could be very true. But others on this board are not realizing that he could very well have a physical problem that he has learned to adjust to over the years.
