Trivia

In 1998, he began filming on a movie called "Chicken Blood and Other Tales", but production was cancelled before it wrapped.

Married his girlfriend of five years, Julie Yaeger on February 23, 2003, in upstate New York. They live in Manhattan.

top to bottom: straight male ILX posters, paul rudd as himself

So Paul Rudd is attending the wedding of a showbiz friend (not an actor). And near the end of the reception they show the guests giving their good wishes on a giant videoscreen, and Rudd comes on in closeup sincerely blathering "You're beautiful, I know you'll build a loving home" etc. The camera gradually pulls back to reveal that he's whacking off in a toilet stall.

The mother of the bride requests he be ejected immediately, and as he is escorted out by 2 or 3 guys, Rudd waves and shouts "I love you all!"

WAU!

Cusak is too much of a pussy to do or say anything as awesome as that

bro for all-time

PAUL RUDD: OTM

it's like a funny version of the jeremey piven story that is somewhere on ilx

true american

cusack just pulls that shit at funerals instead of weddings

Rudd is about LIFE

you look like babe ruth's gay lover.... gaybe ruth

Coincidence?

The mother of the bride requests he be ejected immediately, and as he is escorted out by 2 or 3 guys, Rudd waves and shouts "I love you all!"

hahahaha gangsta

xpost Or something far more sinister.

Between WHAS and 40YOV for me, but I had to give the nod to the latter for Rudd's freakout in the electronics store with the handheld cam. Genius.

Couldn't decide ---> comedy vote for 200 Cigarettes

That would have been a comedy vote for The Baxter, in which someone clearly told him "I dunno, just, like, be Paul Ruddy, do a funny dance or something," and so he's totally like weekend-off autopilot Ruddy, but HMM NO OPTION

the real comedy vote is for the jen aniston movie where he plays a sweetheart fag

elmo if you are watching jen aniston romcoms for rudd you win squatters rights

more like the object of my erection, amirite

no

i saw that movie when i was like 16, i really don't remember what it's about except stupid girl falling in love with sensitive gay dude

basically it laid the groundwork for that madonna & rupert everett movie

I like when they used it in a Stella clip.

the object of my erection

the first 50 pages of this book were lousy.

Page 51 took care of you, though?

and by page 52, there was no point in going on.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Where's the one where he spends the entire film trying to find a piece of mail!?!??!

ok guys guys the amazing, amazing double take he does in whas when coop comes into the talent show wearing that ridiculous "sexy" workout get-up: this is actually even more 8080 and hilarious than the cleaning up scene omg.

The Shape of Things, by a mile.

WHAS WHAS WHAS. True for him and everyone else involved and all in the history of comedy.

fuck you, dyke!

I watched this last night. :)

I have watched this clip multiple times in the last week and I dont get sick of it.

I mean its not quite up there with Celery Man but its damn good.

I love him but let's cut it out with the "I can't believe (celebrity) looks this good at age (x)!" meme, these people are barely humans, such is their access to health and wellness regimens, which I imagine in many cases are more or less mandatory

(yes, I hate fun)

Man owns a candy shop

One of the many things that is great about the Rudd video is how he (who whomever) absolutely nails the weird '90s nostalgia, which is a real thing even though I never thought it would or could be a thing (though of course it could be and is). My girls wear mom jeans.

we gotta yeet this virus

why is that so funny to me

It's the "almost" aside that kills me.

"yeet this virus" also slayed me, despite the fact that I had never heard that word before and wasnt sure if the joke was that he was using it correctly or incorrectly or what

I assumed yeet was, like, odd Pittsburgh slang, which would make it even funnier.

My 9 year-old and his friends seem to use yeet as either just a general expression of excitement or surprise, or in a more specific context of throwing something - throwing a baseball a long distance or throwing garbage at the bin across the room.

why does he look like Paul Kaye at the end there, it's nearly ruined Paul Rudd for me

cw: cuomo content

Well, yes:

Once I was in the spa in a hotel in Vegas getting a massage. When I finished I turned over and to my shock Paul Rudd was massaging me. He saw me go in and convinced the masseuse to let him take over, thinking I’d notice immediately. I didn’t, and Paul did the entire rest of it.

well, Y iirc

lmao

Paul Rudd went on Conan’s podcast and spent a good amount of time plugging an Audible series he created. It was five minutes into it that he set up an audio clip and I realized what he was doing…

ha I'd never heard of that gag but I have now educated myself. Thought it was gonna be a rickroll!
