    I think that's the only movie I've ever seen where Tom Cruise didn't just play himself. Possibly his best role yet.

    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)

    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."

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

      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!"

        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.

        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.

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

          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.

                          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...

                                    One of our cats can do this too. If he hears me in the basment messing with the cat food he will suddenly be in front of me trying to trip me...

                                      I had my swine flu shot on the weekend. I'll keep you posted if any signs of autism occur. I'm hoping to be a savant with special abilities and so on. Nothing so far, tho.

                                      You better get another one just in case the potency has dropped from over a year of storage.

                                        nah you wont be that lucky as it only occurs in the 1% of sufferers, 3% get aspergers.

                                        Mmm I love aspergers lightly grilled with olive oil and then sprinkled with a bit of Parmigiano-Reggiano. I also love Brussels sprouts! :)

                                          Why? I thought the efficacy of these shots was, at best, a tad iffy: what is the likelihood that the vaccine will have any potency with a possibly mutated virus? My one and only flu jab was rubbish. I never got the flu... :)
