  • vl002001, on 03/31/2009, -0/+22really nice list. very high quality selections.
    i thought burt reynolds was doing fine! who knew?

    also, #1 seems like it belongs in another list. nothing wrong with being in 1 movie, it's better than most of us and it doesn't demonstrate a sad desperation like the bikini girl.

    http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0267839/

    If you watch "The Dead Talk Back," you become fascinated by this guy, despite his terrible line delivery.

  • Claverhouse, on 03/31/2009, -2/+10On Mr. Arbuckle: 'He starred in more than 100 shorts, with almost 50 in 1914 alone (think about that schedule the next time you spend a whole afternoon painstakingly crafting a single message board post)'
  • jc7012, on 04/01/2009, -0/+7Wow, he went from 12 to 35 in about 2 years..
  • babyheadout, on 03/31/2009, -0/+7One IMDB trivia bit that I use to amuse at parties is Janusz Kaminski, Spielberg's Cinematographer since Schindler's List. Two years before Schindler's List, he did Cool As Ice.
  • tinkafoo, on 03/31/2009, -2/+9Six things we can't keep on a single page!

  • inactive, on 03/31/2009, -1/+6I know - Jesus Christ.

    I wish cracked submissions would come with a NSFW-o-meter.

  • davidschuster, on 03/31/2009, -0/+5When I saw the headline on DIGG, I feared that I might be included on this list. (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2620198/)

    But after seeing this one, I feel just a little bit better.
  • whorunbartertwn, on 03/31/2009, -2/+7Nah the best IMDB page is for the kid who played Evil Ed in the movie Fright Night, and the bad guy from 976-Evil.

    http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0313267/

    He went on to star in such classics as Guys Who Crave Big *****, ***** Pit, and a few dozen other gay pornos.
  • tehknotte, on 03/31/2009, -0/+5dugg for "Woman in department store".
  • feebes, on 03/31/2009, -0/+5If there ever was a list that Gary Busey should be on, its this one.
  • scoottie, on 03/31/2009, -0/+4at least it wasnt a list of a bunch of dead celebs
  • Scira, on 03/31/2009, -0/+4Dugg for #2
  • rhcpinc8, on 03/31/2009, -1/+5Not the best cracked article, maybe this week is a little dry...
  • inactive, on 03/31/2009, -1/+5With 8GB of RAM hitting the market, you think we can load six paragraphs of text on a single page? Get real. You watch too much scifi movies.
  • xxmjumpman23xx, on 03/31/2009, -0/+4Vince landed the movie Great Gatsby directed by Martin Scorsese in the show. Guess who wrote the Great Gatsby?

    F. Scott Fitzgerald.
  • kdmkdmkdm, on 04/01/2009, -0/+4NO BEANS!
  • Zidul, on 04/01/2009, -0/+4their lists are always funny. if it ain't broken don't fix it.
  • MichiganJeep, on 03/31/2009, -0/+3Eyes burning. My internal microfiche is ruined.
  • Wonderama, on 03/31/2009, -0/+3In all seriousness, I thought the original Dr. Zaius was awesome. But then again, I was 7.
  • IOhBot, on 04/01/2009, -0/+3Yes
  • Phazex, on 03/31/2009, -1/+4this page led me to one that told me grandma's boy is on the top 25 worst grossing movie list.

    THATs depressing. good movie. I'd bet DVD sales more than made up for it.
  • realpolitik, on 03/31/2009, -0/+3Did you not see the most recent season finale where Vince signs on to play Nick Carraway in a forthcoming Scorcese adaptation of The Great Gatsby? It was a MAJOR plot point...
  • JoeParanoid, on 03/31/2009, -1/+3Oh, thank god they didn't use mine.
  • LucasVB, on 04/01/2009, -0/+2http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0962260/
    Brett Kelly, the kid from Bad Santa. Always plays a dumb fat kid, and is credited as "the kid" at least three times.
  • analogkid01, on 03/31/2009, -1/+3HONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNK.
  • tedfor, on 03/31/2009, -1/+3FTA:

    "There had been a early stint in 1927, when United Artists paid him a $3500 advance (about $65,000,000 in 2009 money)"
  • scarwars, on 04/01/2009, -0/+2holy *****.. I just saw Heaven Help Us & Fraternity Vacation a couple of days ago..

    Damn, I feel violated now.
  • Badfish2, on 03/31/2009, -1/+3where's YOUR IMDB page?
  • kevcowiffle, on 04/01/2009, -0/+2I watched it last night actually, and it's brilliant. I don't care what the Joel purists say, season 6 with Mike was absolutely incredible.
  • dlan4327, on 03/31/2009, -0/+2I clicked just because of all the Burt Reynold's comments.

    I'm not sure whether I'm glad or horrified that I did.
  • dbalaski, on 04/01/2009, -1/+3They missed George Peppard

    His Career was a long downward slide -- It started with him playing opposite of Audry Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffianies -- and then going to playing opposite of Mr Tee & Dirk Benedict on the A-Team

    poor guy
  • Jackson0909, on 04/01/2009, -0/+2Sheesh, that's pathetic. How much you wanna bet that William Lawrence Hess also wrote the content for his own bio page?
  • CrazyEddie041, on 03/31/2009, -2/+3I gotta say... I didn't really find that article amusing. I love Cracked as much as the rest of Digg, but I just didn't find this one entertaining at all.
  • ehaugan, on 03/31/2009, -3/+4Why is cracked.com obsessed with lists? Time for something original!
  • scoottie, on 03/31/2009, -1/+2ummm Fitzgerald wrote The great gatsby which the actor that plays vincent chase is the star of. what dont you get?
