I saw this picture on Gawker...

And I think it's funny:

It is, to use the parlance of the day, "humorous"

Is that picture of … her … from a mid-90s movie she did? We were in NC at the time, but Saskatchewan made the news because some kind of morals board tried to keep it out of general distribution for being pornographic. Yay, Saskatchewan tries to prove it's the Alabama of the tundra …

Wasn't Dan Ackroyd in that? Man, for a guy who was both in Ghostbusters AND the SNL Citizen Kane parody, that is a long way to fall.

Yeah, that's the one. Dan Ackroyd is an earlier version of Ben Stiller. He's in a great movie and people assume it's all his talent. Then he does ten coilers in a row to prove that he's not better than his scripts.

Huhuhuh... 'coilers'. God bless you Dr. Hooks, God bless you.

I think he is generally in more good movies than bad.

Between SNL, Blues Brothers, Ghostbusters, and Trading Places...if the man had keeled over in 1986? Lost, lamented genius.

You forget Caddyshack. I have never been more ashamed in my life.

I agree. We would regard Doctor Detroit as a hiccup.

The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash (1978) (TV) .... Brian Thigh, Ex-Record producer who turned down the Rutles

For a brief period, I adopted the pseudonym Brian Thigh, partly because he got slammed by the line, "How does feel to be such a bloody asshole?"

You know, Wolt, you don't have to actually watch them back to back every time.
