2. I'm so sad for his career...
Probably one of the most talented and underrated actors of our time and he's reduced to playing second fiddle to Tim Allen in a Disney remake. Oh well, all movie parts can't be of "Good Night and Good Luck" caliber and he's got to pay the bills somehow. I can't wait until someone has the guts to cast him in another Chaplin-esque role.

4. "Back to School" was the best
The son says: "I have one friend, Derrick Lutz, (played by Robert Downey Jr.) he has no friends."

6. I'm not too worried about his career...
He is in the new Richard Linkletter film and those who have seen it claim that it is his movie. Also he is in the new David Fincher Zodiac movie. He probably did this Disney POS for his kid or something. Stuff like that isn't totally unheard of. I checked IMDb and I am not very worried about his career prospects.

Check out his upcoming films. Not too shabby.

The Sangraal (2006) (announced) .... Archeologist Stone
Poe (2006) (pre-production) .... Edgar Allan Poe
Zodiac (2006) (filming) .... Paul Avery
Fur (2006) (post-production) .... Lionel
Lucky You (2006) (post-production)
A Scanner Darkly (2006) .... Barris
A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006) .... Dito

When it comes out, rent Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Fucking hilarious movie which WB dropped the ball distrubution wise.

8. And he made a wonderful documentary about the 1992
Republican Convention, in which he let the wingnuts condemn themselves with their own words.
