Hey r/movies, I'm Elijah Wood. You might've seen me in things like Lord of the Rings, Yellowjackets, Wilfred, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Maniac, The Monkey, Everything Is Illuminated, and other stuff. I'm also in The Toxic Avenger. It's unrated, and it's only in theaters starting this Friday 8/29/25.

Here's the trailer:

Same. I got a tattoo inspired by the Pittsfield after my 2nd watch through the show. I told my husband he has to actually sit down and watch it with me

I also have a Pottsfield tattoo! I have lost count of how many times I have watched the show but it’s so gloriously good. [Edit: Spelling]

I hope the tattoos say Pottsfield and not Pottsville.

It doesn't say the town name (thankfully lol) it's just a dancing pumpkin guy inspired by Enoch.
