You also forgot Keanu Reeves, the archetypal non-actor's non-actor.

Gary, Yes ! I can only attribute forgetting Keanu Reeves, and Harrison Ford, to brain damage.
“But I don't want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

Oh come on, they may not be the best of actors, but saying that they are brain damaged is a bit harch.
I'm actually going to publically admit that I liked "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure", I'll blame my immaturity.

Now, you've got to admit that Ford wasn't bad in Regarding Henry[^].

No, I'm not talking about this[^]
This is[^]. I didn't see any of the movies from those lists.
The Lone Ranger - But cancelled due to negative reviews.
Escape Plan - Not much shows here at that time so didn't have a chance to see, reason for this movie is I liked The Last Stand which's low budget action movie starred Arnold.
Some one asked me for The Hangover Part III but refused because disliked the second one.

I don't mind a stereotype jab but I do want some kind of logic and believability. This[^] guy is just plain idiot. He is not funny and is totally illogical.
Moreover, his accent try for the Middle Eastern person was ridiculous. No wonder he did not make it.

A couple of good lines ("I am the Batman" & "I'm the ugly chick"), but most of it wasn't worth the time he spent putting it together, let alone the time watching it.
Some of the others in the associated videos list were bloody good, though.
But why is it, when Indian comics talk about US movies, none of them come up with (a variant of) "Ramadanbo 7 -- This Time it's Fast!"? It's about the most obvious joke ever untold.

Making religious based jokes is a big taboo in the sub-continent. One might get away doing so from some other country but in this age, internet has made it quiet difficult.

No. Actually, I glare at stoats, but that's a Mars thing...

I first read that as "Injuring minds want to know". It still works within the thread context.

Imagine a sidewalk that generates electricity from footsteps; this guy[^] might just make it happen.
Apparently, any source of vibration becomes a potential energy supply, to be harvested by this technology. Just imagine if a sheet of this material was installed under the mattress of every bed in every motel that charges by the half hour... There'd be no more need in all the world to burn another drop of whale oil for light.

I think there is a scifi movie [^]related to that.

You mean people still walk?
I think they should apply this technology to the surface of every smart phone. The things would probably be able recharge themselves.

How about light from opening envelopes?
Close a self seal envelope and let it set for a while.
Then in a dark room open it by pulling the sealed flaps apart.
You will see a blue/grey glow for a split second.
Tribophysics!
It is the crystals rupturing and releasing energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
Do you know the first person to ask Professor Frank Close about this?
Yep, it was me and he had never heard of it before.
(I was also the first person to ask him what the speed of gravity is and he said it was a very interesting question, then moved on without answering it. 20 years later he published The Cosmic Onion in which he stated he had spent 20 years thinking about the speed of gravity before declaring it as c. He sent me a signed copy of the book).

That is a very interesting question. Somehow I think it's faster than "c". In fact, I think it's instantaneous. But WTF do I know?

You'd think so =, wouldn't you? Unfortunately, experimentation says otherwise: http://www.csa.com/discoveryguides/gravity/overview.php[^]

Well, blow me down and tie me in a knot!
That's fascinating, and believe it or not a very understandable read. And the "experiment" makes sense.

I like it when someone can write up a serious experiment like that without having to use technobabble just to make themselves seem knowledgeable and ends up with a description you can understand without needing to know the theoretical math behind it (because that makes no sense to me at all these days and in extreme cases turns my brain off!)
It's a good description of a good experiment!
