Yeah, it is the guy from Bridesmaids, I looked it up because I recognized the name. I think I know him more from seeing his appearances on Craig Ferguson's show. Is he the guy in the elevator in the clip?

Anyway, yeah, I encourage everyone to check the video out, it's hilarious!

The guy doing the voice is the guy from the IT Crowd (good comedy show if you've never seen it), starting to appear in a few movies as well (like Bridesmaids). He appears near the end of the video too...

I'm actually originally from Scotland, if you are planning on attempting this challenge go there instead :)

QED.

The USS Enterprise would NEVER allow the destruction of Vulcan.

Vulcan was destroyed in Star Trek 90210.

Therefore, Star Trek 90210 cannot be Star Trek.

QED

:D

Michale.....

I do it just to yank CW's chain.. Apparently yers as well.. :D

I actually liked Stallone's DREDD, but as everyone knows, I am not really too cerebral when it comes to movies I like...

Matter of fact, all this talking about it makes me want to go watch it again.. :D

Michale.....

Dredd never takes his helmet off.

Stallone took his helmet off.

Therefore, Stallone cannot be Dredd.

QED.

Heh. Whenever I hear Stallone's "I am the law" I always think of Rainier Wolfcastle on the Simpsons trying to get the KEY line out in the "Radioactive Man" movie:

"Up and at them"
(prompter): "Up and atom!"
"Up and at them"
"OK! That was better!"

Heh.

-CW

Don't do that!

I think my heart actually stopped for a second!

Stallone will ALWAYS be the ONLY Dredd!! :D

{{Michale runs and hides!!!}}

Also, on a movie note, here's the best use of the line "you people" in cinematic history courtesy of Robert Downey, Jr.

THAT was hilarious!! :D Good movie...

Michale.....

Anyways, may have to check out.

Did you watch the video? It's freakin' hilarious, and you'll get more of the references than the average American if you lived in London...

I have to admit, I'm still rather stunned at this development, as I did not expect to make the cut.

Dang, this means I'm gonna have to wear a suit and tie...

See? The ramifications are still sinking in...

[Personal note to Matt -

Hey, AWESOME review of the new Judge Dredd movie! I linked to it here so everyone could see it! Didn't know you were a fan...]

Again, to everyone, thanks for the warm words. But I still fully believe it is YOU PEOPLE (heh, getting ready for today's column marathon... had to get that Ann Romney reference in there) who made this happen. If I was some guy blogging in pajamas in my basement with 10 readers, this never would have happened, so again my thanks to all of you -- the folks who comment occasionally, the folks who comment incessantly, the folks who "lurk" reading and never comment, and the folks who just browse by from other spots on the intertubes... if it wasn't for you, I'd have given up this nonsense years and years ago!

"if I walk by one of those blowdried helium-brains who is our society's poor excuse for a "national news anchor," that I will not be able to restrain myself from telling them exactly what I think of their "journalism."

Suck it too them I say!

Also I lived in London for a year. July and August are normally busy months but I don't think you can imagine how insane it will be. Just picture subway trains that are round, packed like sardines, with no air-con where temperatures can reach 50 degrees and now they will be packed 24/7 instead of 4/7!

Congrats.. You've earned it!! :D

Michale....

Meanwhile, you couldn't pay me to attend the Olympics in London. They've got so much chaos going on over there. Here's the latest: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2175874/London-2012-Olympics-Train-drivers-stage-days-strikes-Games.html

Border guards are planning to strike on the eve of Olympics, too. What madness.

OH, WOW!!!!!! That is truly exciting, Chris! Congrats!! A great thrill for a political junkie. And, OMG, we're gonna be able to get first-hand reporting from the convention!!! You WILL be doing that, right? I'm sure Michale can hook you up with some kind of mercenary black-ops electronic gizmo to get some live reporting going on.

Okay, I'm gonna watch the video now.

Congratulations!
