Letterman's cameo was epic!

Quite possibly the funniest cameo that has ever transpired on film.

Remember when Letterman hosted the Oscars and put together a little bit referring to that scene? Basically several big name actors auditioning for the part by delivering the "would you like to buy a monkey?" line. I was probably 10 years old at the time and I remember laughing my ass off.

Big girls have big appetites. This movie is in my top 5 of all time, quite possibly #1.

It was alright but he wasn't really acting, just acting like David Letterman. Not much of a stretch for him I imagine :)

That's why it worked. Letterman isn't much of an actor. It just allowed him to do the kind of thing he does naturally.

Was he in this as a favor to Chris Elliot, or something?

"You're one of those 'fancy' lads" LOL

Letterman was great, but the rest of this film was crap. I walked out less than half way in.
