At this point, Chris Crocker is spending more production time on his blinking clips than David Zucker is on these "movies".

These videos just don't stop being funny. True works of art.
Someone call Dash Snow.

@Conbon: Or, about the time it takes for comments to show up on Gawker.

Kind of too accurate to be funny?

I am such a big fan of the Naked Gun Series, Airplane and Top Secret that I completely detest the Scary Movies & Epic Movies. However the Superhero Movie previews and clips like this one make me think that maybe, just maybe there's a chance.

I just saw the trailer the other day and exclaimed that I couldn't believe Leslie Neilsen (son?) was still in the biz (and alive and looking decent). Of course my roommate, who just turned 21, responded with a blank stare. I CAN HAZ IZ OLD?

@Conbon: So true. Sometimes I actually worry I've been executed!

This is really good. Seriously.

That's really Tom Cruise parodying himself, isn't it?

This guy's pretty good, but he's missing a certain maniacal glint in his eye. (Ben Stiller's impression used to have it.)

The best PR move for Cruise right now would be for him to make his own parody video, and release it simultaneously on Leno (or, better, Kimmel) and YouTube. It would start with him calmly explaining what the original video was for, but he'd gradually get crazier and crazier, until Katie has to come in and calm him down. It would draw the biggest YouTube audience ever and generate huge goodwill for Cruise, demonstrating that he still has a sense of humor. (Which he apparently does -- just not about this.)

@nanotalent: That's how I feel about "Rex Kramer, Danger Seeker"

cruise only wishes he still looked like this.

@nanotalent: Well put. I didn't really laugh - just kind of sat here in awe.

@Helman: Me too. And the thought of having to do my actual job is frightening.

@TedSez: Sense of humor? Tom Cruise? You're funny.

@Conbon: "People" say so, even if it is the craziest rumor about him yet.

@adminslave: Leslie Nielsen is 80 and looks great, except for the dentures that are too big for his mouth. I met him last year and begged him to say: "Nice beaver!" and he did it!! Not only did he do it, but he giggled like a crazed schoolboy as soon as he did it.

LOVE HIM!

That was amazing! How long did he have to study that Scientology clip to copy all of Tom's moves? The whole "He can't fly, I can fly." is hilarious.

@Tippi from Toronto: See, now I'm jealous. There can never be to much of him.

Seriously, when I saw this last weekend I was dying laughing. He is dead fucking on with his impression.

And the Zuckers are not the ones releasing that shit like Date Movie or Epic Movie. They did the last 2 Scary Movies, Airplane, Naked Gun, and Top Secret.

TOP SECRET DAMN IT!

@beirut: I want to see dash and tom do a hamster room together!

@TedSez: Are they the same people who say he's straight?

@HeyThatsMyBike: Wait, what?

I'm kind of speechless with awe at this.

@BalknChain: I laughed helplessly at the uber-serious face as he counted off on his fingers and said "Shut. Up."

@sassypants: Alsome. So was "I eat planets" and "I throw nails in the road" or something like it about causing accidents and then he's the only one who can help them. It was truly a marvelous impersonation of Tom.

@sassypants: That he started with his pinky was a nice touch.

This guy killed it, made Jerry O'Connell look like, well, Jerry O'Connell.

@BalknChain: Perfect. This guy is ....he's really good.
I continue to laugh (and have no idea why) at the back of his head:
"What is this place? Seriously. Why are there no clocks in here?"

@TallulahSkankhead: He has the maniacal laugh down pat, too.

@sassypants: It stll makes me laught too. Maybe Gawker can post the original vid for us to see again too. "There was a farmer had a dog and Bingo was his name-o, BAM!" haha. Good stuff.

"I...eat planets."

Galactus reference, always good. I lol'd.

Tom Cruise reminds me of that giant Yeti from Looney Tunes that ended up crushing all the animals he was trying to pet.

@apikores: Little known fact: He doesn't actually eat the planets, they just get sucked in by the black hole where his soul should be.

@BalknChain: HA! That is FOREVER how I will sing that song to my nieces. In fact, that is how it should be performed until the end of time. From full napping position to...BAM!!!!!

I was prepared to not like this dude's impression, but BRAVO!

Jerry O'Connell's version still holds up too, however.

I went to Harvard with James. He was famous on campus for being a Tom Cruise lookalike. He's done a great job with this. Though I hope he doesn't get type casted.

@Trixie from Toronto: Awesome. Airplane has a special place in my heart. "I take my coffee black, like my men." SWOON. Best movie of all time. The new generation is missing out if they haven't seen it.

@adminslave: @Trixie from Toronto:

AIRPLANE is one of my favorites. It's even funnier, somehow, dubbed into French. I was giddy to discover that the French dub is actually on the DVD. The jive scene will leave you speechless.

@nanotalent: Agreed. I'd like to see it in French.

@Kakapo:

Oops. Dropped the exclamation point.

@Kakapo: that's on Youtube

@Toomanytomatoes:

In French? The jive scene? I can't find it.

I did find a couple of scenes, though:

[www.youtube.com]

@adminslave: My mother tells a story of being at a bar with some frineds and not having enough chairs. Leslie Nielsen was there talking with somebody. My mother has the gumption to walk up, grab one of the charis and say, "Surely you don't mind if we borrow your chair." Unfortunatly it seems that this other person was the serious sort since Leslie didn't responded with, "Not at all, go right ahead." My mom said she was a little let down until she head him give the explination to the other guy as to why the crazy lady had just come up and asked that.
God I love my mom, that lady has balls (not literally).

Also, I know the whole blank stare at the comment that shows your age. My housemates range somewhere between four and six years my junior.
