Every time Robert Downey Jr. comes on the screen my mom says, "Can you believe that guy's comeback?" And honestly, even at 22, it becomes glaringly apparent that the whole RDJ comeback may very well be a generational divide. I don't remember him in his days of druggy yore. I remember hearing about it. And the jokes about it (Hey! Remember that guy who almost ruined his career through drug use? HILARIOUS!). But his actual fall from grace? Doesn't ring a bell.

That being said, I like quippy period pieces and I know I'll see this and the sequel. And I'll even go a step further and request that Pitt grow back a mustache for the sequel so that Law and Pitt can have a mustache off. Mustache fights are amazing and not nearly captured on screen enough.

Can Pitt do an English accent? Can he do the right English accent? Downey can do a good one, but if Pitt ends up sounding like a southern hick, I might consider something rash. Like giving him a rash.

BWeaves, uh, have you heard him do a Pikey accent? After that I believe that man can do just about anything.

Bonjourno!

And just think . . . if it had been MY bed he woke up in, none of this would have happened!

Because he'd still be there.

My pants are creaming already.

Which is bad in the middle of lecture.

wsapnin, FTW

This entire idea makes me very, very, VERY happy

in my pants.

*phone on vibrate in pocket* PLEASE CALL ME NOW!!!!!

Doric: Please tell me you are giving the lecture.
Because that would be 5 kinds of awesome.

Lauren:
I agree that it is a good thing RDJ found his way into the bed of a smallish child. If it had been my bed his career would have ended because he never would have seen the light of day again, thus depriving the world of his awesomeness, but greatly enhancing the awesomeness of my world.

Can RDJ, Jude Law and Brad Pitt all be shirtless for the next movie? Pretty please?

RE: The photo of RDJ up top, there.

I'm a bit disturbed by RDJ being completely cleanshaven. It just wasn't done in Victorian England. A man wasn't a man unless he was hairy. I'm not just talking about facial hair. He's been manscaped. It just doesn't look right.

Now, I'm not saying that I don't like it. It's just the sort of thing that makes movies look dated in 10 or 20 years time. Ex. Any Dracula movie made in the 1960's or 70's where the women have beehive hairdos and thick eyeliner and it's supposed to be 1872 or something.

*Yawn*

I don't know. I just never think its a good idea to greenlight a second film before the first one has even come out. We've seen how well that has worked in previous incarnations. When they do that the typically excellent first film ends up being a mere shadow of itself in the second one.

Plus...Pitt? I haven't really liked him in anything since Ocean's Eleven. Well, maybe Burn After Reading. I'll hold off excitement until I see the trailer.

Bweaves, you're such a buzzkill with all your, you know, facts and shit. I thought it looked hot before and now it's just comical. hmph.

I dunno, Cindy, the post a la Pitt makes me chuckle every freaking time. Maybe it's because I imagine he has his horde of children trolling the interwebs for falsified facts about him. When they find one, they alert him with a little bell and then he sits hunched over in front of a little kiddie computer with a stogie in his mouth responding to all the insane allegations made about him.

I have the imagination of a crazy person.

Kayanne, Brad Pitt thanks you for your continued support. Am mailing you a $9,000 Habitrail in gratitude.

Everlasting,

Brad

Dearest K,

The gerbils were used by my basement anarchist group to make soap (we meet Tuedays! Bring flan).

The Habitrail wasn't as Gheryesque as I had imagined. No appreciation for the direction of the sun. Bummed, man.

Even I, sun god of yore, cannot hold sway with the Coenificence. But I'll pass it along.

SCALPS!

Brad
