I nearly spat my tea everywhere when I saw this thread's topic! Agreed! I have absolutely no idea what women see in this man.

I haven't seen all that much of him really. I've seen his stand-up comedy that I found odd, but pretty funny. I saw him on SNL, and he was OK, but I don't think I've seen any of his movies.
I think maybe if I were to see a lot more of him I might start to get annoyed, but in the small doses I've been exposed to I found him kind of funny. He's certainly more talented than Katy Perry. Talk about somebody who has saturated the media. If some kid makes a YouTube video of himself taking a dump Katy Perry will probably find some way to be there. If there's a camera rolling, she's never far away, and willing to slut it up for attention.
"See a broad to get dat booty yak 'em, leg 'er down, a smack 'em yak 'em!"
I think he was hilarious in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Get Him To The Greek on the other hand was quite boring, the only funny scene was when they were tripping out and petting the fuzzy wall.
His stand-up act is funny too.
"I've perfected the art of seduction with a simple gesture..."
I do think he is like Bobcat Goldthwaith..he has an 'act'.
I have an odd sense of humor as well, so I don't hate him...but I don't totally love him either.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
I think he's pretty funny, a little outrageous (but that's part of his act for sure), I can't think of a reason to DISLIKE the guy.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

Ye he's a douche, shame he is from this nation. You get ignorant Americans thinking this is what British people are like....actually most British people are morons anyway.
I really like him. Well, I liked his first book, and I like him in interviews when he's 'himself'. I've never really seen him do stand up, and his movies are so-so. He's far out and cool. (and seems very intelligent--WIDE vocabulary).
I don't really care for him. He just doesn't really make me laugh... and if he doesn't do that for me, there is no reason for me to give a shit about his act and career.
I've noticed the trend with comedians is that they fade, some quicker than others, and if they're lucky (and truly talented) they stay around. I see Russell fading...
I could be wrong, but that's how I see it.
