Punk Johnny-5
Guys, maybe I am just not seeing it here, but what about Johnny-5 from Short Circut 2 where he fixes himself and goes all cliche-line-spoutin' punk ass!?! With a mohawk and everything! If that wasn't a ridiculous killer robot, I don't know what is.

The problem with Langdon…
Is not that he's an ass, it's that he is smarter than the author trying who is to write him. Dan Brown has no idea how smart people actually think/speak/behave because he is not a smart person himself.

Fair enough, she didn't kidnap herself, true… but I guess I am thinking of the fact that she was never in any real danger… as Walter sarcastically says "They're gunna kiiiillll that pooooorrr woman" He knew that was bullshit at least.

Fearless is superb! And, I would have to add The Last Picture Show to the list of all time great Jeff Bridges performances… sweet jebus he's one hot hunka football quarterback in that movie.

You mean… beyond pacifism?

Touche, Elitist!

That was the summer I went to see Lebowski and Fear & Loathing in the theater… both times, everyone got up and left within 20 minutes except my friend Dru and I who were cracking up from the opening credits

What, are you a park ranger now?

Walter
… is the main reason I love this movie. One of the greatest character creations in cinema. John Goodman kills me, no matter how many times I see it.

Tru Dat, Siggy… Tru Dat… re: Mr. Show

Jitterbug Perfume is right, Otto. The one about Israelis-Palestinians is Skinny Legs and All.

Gotta jump on the Michael Mann love. The Insider made me love Russell Crowe forever… and it made me remember why Al Pacino used to be great… Oh! And friggin' Christopher Plummer! Mann that was a good movie.

Oh man, Ye Olde Timer… that was great. Made me spit my milk I was slurping from my milk carton in laughing satisfaction.

Not to mention writing the Motivational Speaker Sketch for Chris Farley, amongst many other excellent sketches during the second SNL renaissance.

Eric Idle once wrote me a reply to a Pythonline message board question entirely in French. It made my friggin' summer when I was 15. Lifetime pass from me, anyway.

Even if we don't give him a pass, he's fine because he constantly gives himself a pass (oh, snap!)

Elvis Costello doesn't need a pass, man. Have you heard The Delivery Man? When I Was Cruel? The River In Reverse? and his new show Spectacle? All totally awesome, all made in the last 10 years… the man is still relevant, in no need of any pass to make up for shitty-ness.

I just re-watched all of both Mr. Show and Arrested Development, and the thing that struck me about both shows this time around was the strength of the less recognized players. Portia de Rossi, Alia Shawkat, Tony Hale, Jeffrey Tambor, Jessica Walter - all fucking stellar… and anyone who had any bit part on Mr. Show…

Yes, whenever I see him in an interview turning more and more into a pompous blowhard (not that he was ever anything else), I just remember Mr. Praline in The Parrot Sketch and The Fish License Sketch, and I calm down. I think all the Python boys get life time passes, even Eric Idle who has gone Hollywood D-list…

Here, here Stroszekian!
