you just gave me a geek-gasm. that would be...words fail me.
it was already wonderful, but Tom Waits pushed Bram Stoker's Dracula into the category of transcendental (before Keanu pulled it back to just wonderful. I'm still not sure whose accent was worse- his or Don Cheadle's in Oceans)

Just look at that ponam.

I know he has a part in the new St Trinian's movie, but I doubt I'll watch that unless it comes on TV, which won't be for at least a year, I imagine.
I think his improv skills are pretty impressive, but strangely a lot of his stand-up performances have been lacklustre...with the result that TV bosses in the UK really like him and want to give him airtime, but they have struggled to find a format which really works for him (apart from Big Brother's Big Mouth, which suffered when he departed)
I think his best performance of late has been as Maddie McCann's suspected abductor..................sorry.

The daisy.
"You still don't get it, do you? He'll find her. THAT'S WHAT HE DOES! THAT'S ALL HE DOES!!! You can't stop him. He'll wade through you, he'll reach down her throat, and PULL HER FUCKING HEART OUT!!!!"
I always think of that when the Biehnee comes up.

Yeah, but that makes it a classic joke, worthy of praise and repeatednessitude.

My favourite story concerning him goes like this
::ring ring ring::
Roth: "Hello"
Speilberg: "Hi TIm, it's Steven Spielberg here, how would you like to be in my new movie about the Holocaust"
Roth: "Sounds very interesting"
Spielberg: "Good, good. Can you do a German accent?"
Roth: "Which part of Germany?"
Spielberg: "Er..."
::Roth hangs up::
You don't get awesomeness like that from just anyone.
