    Many years ago he was truly brilliant. But he is passed it now. No longer funny, and he is so precious now he even walks off stage when http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/showbiz/2012/02/03/scots-comedy-legend-billy-connolly-walks-off-stage-after-being-heckled-86908-23733591/! Jimmy Carr on the other hand is funny! Here are some of his lines: I worry about my nan. If she's alone and falls, does she make a noise? I'm joking, she's dead. I'm not being condescending, I'm too busy thinking about far more important things you wouldn't understand. I saw a charity appeal in the Guardian the other day, and it read "Little Zuki has to walk 13 miles a day just to fetch water". And I couldn't help thinking, she should move. African child dies? I watched those, and couldn't help thinking, "well stop clicking your fingers!" I did a gig in the US once for the homeless. I said "It's nice to see so many bums on seats". British scientists have demonstrated that cigarettes can harm your children. Fair enough. Use an ashtray! I had a survey done on my house. 8 out of 10 people said they really rather liked it. I'm not worried about the Third World War. That's the Third World's Problem. In Pizza Express you can get garlic bread with cheese and tomato. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but that's a pizza. There was one time where I failed to perform sexually. My girlfriend said to me "oh don't worry, it happens to a lot of guys". Ok, there are two things wrong with that. First of all who are these other guys?, and second of all if it's happening to more than one of us, don't you think it could be YOUR fault? Theres been a lot of talk about genetic engineering I was wondering, is it wrong to breed piglets specifically for the purposes of weaning paedophiles off babies, only I'm thinking of starting a company called "They'll squeal, but not to the cops". Boxers don't have sex before a fight, do you know why that is? They don't fancy each other. I'd like to leave you ladies and gentlemen with this frightening fact: I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but if you took all the money that we in the West spend on food in one week, you could feed the Third World for one year. I'm not sure about you people, but I think we're being overcharged on groceries. My father always used to say, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger," - 'til the accident. No matter how much you give a homeless person for tea... you never get that tea. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Rohypnol(TM).

      It is official, Peter Jackson's The Hobbit will be crap. Here[^] is the confirmation. Every film this man has been in has been rubbish. Mainly because he can't act. (Or, given recent behaviour, tell jokes)

        Really? For the sake of a minor character who appears very briefly towards the end of the book?

            Well if Tom Cruise can play Jack Reacher...

            Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                  Who is this ? Never ever heard of him. According to wikipedia filmography, he did not play in any major movie ( but then again, I missed Beverly Hills Ninja, so maybe...)

                  Most of the films he's been in have been utter rubbish. He was a brilliant comic. He also seems like a very decent, albeit troubled (given his abuse as a child and alcoholism) human being, but recently he has shown signs of being in Hollywood too long. I've not seen him live (I'd have loved to have done this in his heyday) but according to many accounts he isn't as funny as he used to be.

                    I'm not sure. If he injects a few curse-laden rants it could make things a little interesting. I'd have to agree that his acting skills leave a little lot to be desired, but his stand up acts were pretty good in their day.

                    I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

                        Hopefully, you are wrong. Hopefully, his hiring is not evidence of the other actor's abilities...

                          "A Fish Called Wanda" wasn't so bad.
