    And then of course Judd was legit good as the most entitled douche of all in "Billionaire Boys Club."

    No. It's George Carlin. I always found it very funny that he was on a show for little kids.

    Haha my bad, should have recognized him, or at least realized he looked nothing like Dice.

    And your quote sig is a big reason why I can't think of many better examples for kids than Carlin. At his very base, he was a universal truth-teller.

    I agree, but most people think of Carlin as not being safe for children. I'm not saying they are right about that. I first saw one of his HBO specials when I was 12 and look how I turned out. :D

    Who else is going to teach little kids new words, or the difference between football and baseball?

    I absolutely saw one of his HBO specials much earlier than that. Explains a lot!!! :D

    My first exposure to Carlin was on the Tonight Show, where he did a set to promote his upcoming special, What Am I Doing in New Jersey, which I taped on HBO a month later. To this day, when I'm pushing a yellow light that turns red I say out loud, "cop didn't see it. I didn't do it."

    Would we consider "My Fellow Americans" a bad movie? I wouldn't.

    I'd consider "Out to Sea" one for sure.

    I don't think Jack Lemmon was ever capable of being in a bad movie. His mere presence raised it to mediocre.

    I mean he was in Airport '77!

    My Fellow Americans is pretty funny, so no.

    Don't forget his starring role alongside Orson Welles, Robert Stack and Leonard Nimoy in the cinematic masterpiece "Transformers: The Movie."
