Bill Pullman

I really thought Bill Pullman deserved his owni thread for his absolutely hysterical performance in this film as Anita Morris' dumber than dirt lover. I love when he comes up behind Judge Reinhold to get the money from him and yells at him and yells at him "I'M ROBBING YOU!" Puts me on the floor every time I watch it.

I agree, the part made the movie better.

He's a hoot. I love the parts when he thinks the video is of a murder and not the police chief with a prositute; plus when he says "Yeah, then we're off to Haiti." Not Haiti, Tahiti! "I knew that." :D

My favorite with him is when he tries to rob Judge Reinhold after the ransom drop.

I really would love to watch this movie since Bill Pullman is in it. Do you know where I can find the trailer? Or any Pullman clips from this movie at?

I've seen it now. Very funny. "I'm robbing you!" and "Do I look stupid?" and his hurt expression when Ken says "Yes. Yes you do."

Bill Pullman REALLY deserves his own thread, I think he made this movie even funnier.

He's a dab hand with a dustbuster too

The best part is when he says, "If you're shooting at me, where's your GUN?"

Look at his tongue when he says that.

We said everything that ended in "un" that way for weeks after we saw this movie.

Don't forget the scene where Carol says, "Either the chief is a complete moron and complete morons are rare" and then looks at Earl ... priceless!

Very funny character.

It's not about whether 'someone deserves a thread', it's about whether 'you have something to say'.

I wish you had, could've been interesting.
