'Smile Time'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
You know what I remember loving RDJ in? Restoration. (Though I could have done without Meg Ryan. She no more belongs in a period piece than Pauly Shore does.) (Buuuuuuudy.)
And I am appalled that I never saw Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and need to rectify that ASAP.
(I also really liked him in Ally McBeal, which just tells you that I'm fairly indiscriminate in my RDJ love.)

You totally do. After I finally saw that movie, I was like, "Why the SHIT isn't this more popular and well known?"

Truer words.
Another lost silent film is discovered, this time, it's a Charlie Chaplin appearance, thought to be either the first or second time he wore the famous moustache on screen.
I loved Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang so much, I watched it twice in a row.
My RDJ love is similarly indiscriminate.
That movie was freaky - the protagonist puppet looked so much like Daniel Jackson that I couldn't think of it as the character it was actually supposed to be.
I absolutely adore the Puppet!Stargate episode, but have never seen Team America. I'll have to go find pictures to see if they used the same puppet.
No, the Team America puppet actually looked more like Daniel than the one used in "200."
KKBB is a great movie. I highly recommend it. Really entertaining.
We've been watching Toy Story 2 a lot this week to prep Matilda for Toy Story 3.
I don't know if there's a sadder song in the Disney canon than "When She Loved Me" (the song about Jessie the Cowgirl's previous owner). Dag.
Though now that I've been corrupted by Glee I've been imagining them doing a Disney/Pixar song selection.
They should do a Randy Newman episode.
They should do a Randy Newman episode.
Too subtle? Too much irony?
Though he's got amazing songs in his catalog like "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" and "You Can Leave Your Hat On."
