Carrot Top is one of the most pitiful human beings I have ever had the displeasure to witness attempting to make people laugh. And while mkmwolfman's comment was rather lame, it is completely true...the only thing amusing about Carrot Top is his idiotic appearance. And by the way, Bruce Willis should not be considered a comedian...he's an actor...there's a difference. Also, don't complain about a movie until you've seen it. I saw "Dickie Roberts, Former Child Star" earlier tonight, and truthfully...it wasn't that bad. I went in not expecting much, but it came out better than I would have thought. I, for the most part, don't like Spade outside of SNL, and I think he's usually pretty moronic (there's a saying my friend told me once, though I unfortunately cannot remember where he got it from..."Somedays I feel like David Spade without Chris Farley...useless and annoying." Sorry, just find that quote humorous.), but I enjoyed his performance in "Dickie Roberts." Yes, he's not the best actor in the world, and even though some of the most amusing scenes did not really involve him, I still think he was certainly funny, and proved me wrong about my before-viewing judgement on the film. And fans on '80's and early '90's TV shows should try and see it just for the washed-up-child-actor cameos (such as "Saved by the Bell"'s Screech, Dustin Diamond; Corey Feldman; and Leif Garret...just to name a few) and a hilarious sing-along during the end credits. Jon Lovitz as Dickie's agent is also entertaining. Alyssa Milano was disappointing and rarely seen, and the kids were fairly unconvincing at times (but they had their moments). Another hilarious part is a Britney Spears/Christina Aguilera-induced dancing scene by a ten-year old girl to "I Wanna Be Bad With You, Baby." Overall, "Dickie Roberts" was not a bomb, but was a good movie...proved to be better than I originally thought it would be...and is a reccomendation to those who enjoy that sort of humor.
