But RD really gets into the role.

That's exactly the joke in Tropic Thunder... I really enjoyed that movie, and BTW, the dance of Tom Cruise really made me laugh :P

We never could work out Dr Doom vs Batman though.

That's easy. Batman would always win after the first confrontation. However, the defeat would still benefit Doom, and it'd just be a dead Doombot in front of Batman. Over the course of 30 to 40 defeats Doom would be able to then make a machine to bring back his mom but doing so would destroy the world after Batman hits some switch so Doom doesn't do it. Doom then talks about how awesome his mom was, how he misses her every day, and Batman, feeling sorry, goes out for drinks with him. Doom short circuits from drinking some brandy because that, too, was a Doombot.

There's a reason he's my all-time favorite actor. Oldman is just a bloody genius... The big joke is that since he only does supporting roles, a lot of people never even recognize him. He's an entirely different person in every role... Not just a different name, but a different person.

Aha see? Circular argument. Batman would win but it's a Doombot. Ergo he never beats Doom. Doom beats Batman but Batman had already planned for this and thus turn the tables on what would, eventually, turn out to be a Doombot. :)

I knew a girl from Georgia (the country not US state) who saw it with friends. Afterward the conversation went like this. "I am amazed they got someone from Southern Georgia to do the part. Normally you have some actor doing a bad Russian accent trying to sound Russian and screwing up everything. "He's a US actor." "No he isn't! I could probably tell you the town he's from. I am pretty sure it is (insert name I could not pronounce let alone spell here)." "When we get to the dorms you can look him up on IMDB." They then showed her 5th Element, Lost in Space, and the Professional. I think they broke her.

Haha... Yeah, actually I think that movie was completely stupid... I think RD was the only one keeping Ben Stiller from ruining it. The back-and-forth between RD and whoever that was playing the rapper... Hilarious. Actually though... I think that's the only movie I've ever seen where Tom Cruise didn't just play himself. Possibly his best role yet. Oh, and Matt Maconahoweveryouspellhisname was funny too.

I just did a quick wiki. Holy crap he was married to Uma Thurman? Also did not know he was the main antagonist in Hannibal. And I'm remembering the spitting scene in friends and trying not to chortle at work.

I think I found out how they came up with Recursion...

#(%*&@##!!! I had no idea! See? That's why he's so bloody amazing... I must have seen that movie three or four times, and I never realized that was him.

I think Tom Cruise was acting like Ludacris (the big hands, the song at the end, etc). Matthew McGonnadas was funny too, but RDjr was really awesome (the part where he have a existential crisis, and takes off all the make-up, is GREAT)

Ian Shlasko

Hahaha... Gotta love that... The guy's my favorite actor, and I never even realized he was the one playing Gordon in the new Batman movies until I checked the credits.

Oh yeah, that was the best scene in the movie... "I'm not Neil Armstrong... And I'm not Father Mackanerny... I think... I think I might be nobody."

I was impressed with his chinese accent (being chinese descent myself). Followed up by the "[What do I farm?]...I'm a lead farmer mofo!"

Best part of all this, he has a Bacon # of 1. :) Witness for the Prosecution or something like that with him and Christian Slater if I remember correctly.

Haha... Yeah, that movie would have been complete crap without him. (As it stands, it was only semi-complete crap - Hey, the man can only do so much)

dangit. Now I just came up with this rather than writing documentation:

Public Enum Character
    Batman
    Doom
End Enum

Public Function WhoWins(ByVal Winner As Character) As Character
    Dim objWinner As Character
    Dim objActualWinner As Character
    If Winner = Character.Batman Then
        objActualWinner = Character.Doom
    Else
        objActualWinner = Character.Batman
    End If
    objWinner = WhoWins(objActualWinner)
    Return objWinner
End Function

My brain is weird

Jack: "You want the truth?" Chris: "Yeah!" Jack: "The truth is, you walk like me, you talk like me, you don't have an original bone in your body!" Chris (Same accent): "That's a freakin' lie!" -- "The Critic"

The Critic was before its time. Had they done it 5 years later it would have been a hit.
