Jesse Eisenberg is a Hero, and I hate Romina Puga

So apparently this video is making its way around the ultranet and is apparently giving Jesse Eisenberg some bad press.  The "interviewer" is the lovely and "talented" Romina Puga (we'll delve into her more in just a moment).  She is conducting an interview for Univision and is simply doing a first-class job, might I add.  I only have one quick question, why does this make Eisenberg look, and I quote Puga "mean"?

First let's start with the video.  Before I even got to the first question of the interview, I knew immediately I would not be siding with the star reporter.  The premise of her segment is that she has famous people say her name into the camera and then conducts her segment brilliantly titled, "Say My Name".  Get it?  You see what she did there?  They say her name, in a segment titled "Say My Name".  Brilliant.  The spirit of Cronkite and Brokaw live on through work like this.

Seriously though, how wildly narcissistic do you have to be to do this?  You are so in love with yourself that you think it is a clever idea to have people who have actually accomplished things in life, say your name to start an interview.  I hate her.  I don't even know her, but I already know I hate her.  It is people like her that diminish society.

Now onto the actual interview itself.  First she referes to Morgan Freeman as "Freeman" as if she were broadcasting a baseball game, and Freeman were the starting pitcher.  Strike one, sweetheart.  After Eisenberg calls her out on this, she becomes noticeably flustered primarily, because she does not have any actual wit or discernable ability.  She is just another really good looking chick that thinks she is God's gift to the world (In fairness she probably believes that she is actually funny and clever because guys have been forced to fake laugh at her attempts at humor in the hopes of sleeping with her.), but actually brings nothing at all to the table.

Next, she decides to put that high powered creativity to use by conducting an illusion of all illusions, the classic "Moveable Thumb".  You see this move was incredibly clever because Eisenberg is promoting a movie in which he plays a magician, so she thought she would show off some of her "skills" too.  She honestly makes Gob from Arrested Development look like a good magician.  Strike two.

Then Eisenberg, being someone who has played one of the smartest men alive and someone of decent intellect himself, procedes to crush her horrible attempt at being clever.  After realizing that Eisenberg is not amused, she then proceeds to put the attention on him and asks him to show her a trick handing him a deck of cards.  Eisenberg responds with one of the greatest live insults I've ever witnessed.  He calls her the Carrot Top of interviewers.  And boom she goes down on three pitches.  Take the walk of shame back to the dugout sweetie.  Better luck next time?

(Actually not sure this was as great of an insult as I originally thought.  According to celebritynetworth.com, Carrot Top is worth over $75 million.  Holy $*@% That hack is worth $75 million?!?  If she makes even a 1/4 of that over her "career", she would have more money than I will ever see if I could live 8 lives.  Maybe she should have thanked him for the compliment...)

After trying to sabotage his trick, he professionally finishes the card trick.  The card trick provides some of the greatest moments of discomfort the internet has ever given us.  She admits that she is trying to rush through the interview because he is making her want to cry.  He then tells her not to cry because it will seem like he is the reason she is crying (not her wild incompetence and lack of professionalism).

Puga then posted the video with the caption, "Jesse Eisenberg is mean".  So, there you have it folks.  Jesse Eisenberg is mean is the story, not her being a wildly incompetent and unprofessional journalist.  Jesse you've got a friend here.  You're the victim, not her.  She is an absolute smoke, so I am sure she will land on her feet, at least until her looks fade, and then is forced to live with what I assume is one of the worst realizations any hot chick faces, the thought that no one wants to sleep with you any more and you are rendered useless to society.   The story should be Jesse Eisenberg wastes his time with a useless interview and absolutely (and rightfully so) crushed a terrible reporter.  Here's to you bro, keep fighting.
