It sounds like John might have a Hit with Bad Santa :)

I HOPE he has a nice funny part and gets some "slingblade" kinda praise :)

I am going to be first in line!!!

Bad Santa is far and away, the funniest film that I have seen in years, (so much more so than the upcoming Old School which I think AICN readers and writers have been way too kind to). Starting with Willie's opening scene where he is vomiting out his brains in his Santa outfit, to Tony Cox and Bernie Mac's assault with words on each other- this film is non stop laughs. And you will never, ever look at a Christmas film the same way again. What was the last Christmas film you saw where Santa, drunkenly tiring to get to his automobile after coming out of a car, almost gets it up the ass by a fellow patron? And Bad Santa has to have the record for the most "****s" and the most creative uses of that dignified word put on film, and yes, I have seen every Scorsese and Tarantino film-Bad Santa still wins. Literally every word out of Willies mouth is **** in some way or another (ed, ing, er, s, mother, ass, you get the idea).
