    I realize this is a old post,,, oh what the .... First Ben stiller is a excellent Ray. as for Art im not sure. I do disagree the man who played him was a poor actor, I think he was fantastic. I do believe hes under rated. For Rumsfeld i think chuck noris may be a good pick if he could...

  20. Favorite character?

    Ricky. He is hilarious. Cory feldman adds a charm ,sweetness and adolescent mischievousness to the whole feel of the movie that set the mood. Of course Ray is another favorite. I believe this movie may be Tom hanks best . I think he is probably better at comedy then the more serious...
