Isn't that the guy who did the voice of the rat in Ratatouille?

His name is Patton Oswalt, and yes. He's a comedian from Virginia who smokes a lot of weed and is a devout atheist. He also has a long-standing feud with KFC over their "Famous Bowls". He had a comedy documentary come out a couple of years ago call the "The Comedians of Comedy".

Pretty funny guy, but I'd imagine if anyone from FlameFans were to see him anywhere other than broadcast television they're likely going to be offended.

Oh, and I really want to see this. Good lookin' flick.

I only know him as Spence. He works in a subway token booth, is incredibly skilled at shuffle board, and is often confused for being gay with his roommate and Doug's cousin, Danny.

Yeah I'm not a huge Patton Oswalt fan but he's funny at times and this movie looks really good.

I'm sorry. I fell asleep watching the trailer. I think it was right after the Sundance graphic came on screen.

patton oswalt's standup is pretty much hilarious... he has no basis for his atheism other than "christians are dumb"

the comedians of comedy was great too.

Agreed. None of what I said before was meant to indicate I'm not a fan. I find him to be hilarious quite often.

Most young hip, white people like Patton Oswalt. If you don't, well your just not cool. :roll: (stuffwhitepeoplelike.com)

As for me, personally I think he is funny (king of queens), but I don't watch anything with tons of vulgarity, like what you might find in a R rated movie or HBO. I did stumble across his KFC bowls sketch on Youtube last year. The concept was hilariouis, but I didn't make it too far due to the language and that was only like a 3 minute clip. Can't imagine listening to him for over an hour.

Hollywood made plenty of great films without extreme profantiy and until they do it again, I am just not watching.
