why the hell would eugene levy be in this...


has his career really gone so downhill that he has to star in a movie like this? poor guy. i remember his prime days, when he was in films like best in show and american pie. and now.... this.

...he has to star in a movie like this?

He doesn't have too much screen time in Gooby, comparably, and he's not really that funny, as his character is supposed to be a jerk (and succeeds). I don't know that I've ever seen him in something and appreciated his work. He's just kind of there in most films.

He's never said no to a movie.

Because Eugene Levy sucks. He has never been funny.

He's Canadian.

I assume his need to eat was a lot of his incentive. A paycheck's a paycheck.

Better question: Why did Robbie Coltrane do the voice?

being a supporting character in movies like American Pie isn't exactly a huge accomplishment for an actor in the first place.

Yeah, I mean Eugene Levy use to be on SCTV and star in movies with John Candy for crying out loud. Hell, he was better in "Armed and Dangerous" IMO.

Never mind him, what about Robbie Coltrane?
