    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

    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.

      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.

      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.

        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 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)

              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.

              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

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

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

                                  If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                                  Totally... Awesome show, even if they did reuse the same parody clips over and over and over...

                                  Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

                                    Ah, better. I could sorta read the first. This still hurts my brain... but I can read it better. This is like the buttered toast on a cat's back thing.

                                      I think Family Guy learned a lot from that show though. Timing, lightning fast parodies, mocking the right celebs, it was all just waiting for someone to refine it.

                                        Given a good runup, I could probably do it in java for you too :D Apparently someone did try to get a grant to do the buttered toast thing. Even though that fell through, they still tried it. It then failed due to not seperating the cats from the bread and butter supplies.

                                          Family Guy annoys me, though... Too many pointless flashbacks with stupid gags... It's like Cartman says in the Cartoon Wars episodes of South Park...
