He was working shining shoes employing his usual mild manner - - but then mysteriously, a large crowd formed outside and Al was gone. Is it any coincidence that moments later that the mysterious, yet heroic, UnderGore appeared to save the day?
Could UnderGore and Al be the same . . . . naaaaaaah.

Like this one. There's something about intelligence, integrity, good looks and a dash of more humility than one would expect. Wanting whats right for the planet helps, too.
Heck, even his acting doesn't exactly suck, and he's picking better vehicles. I mean, other than the Batmobile.

I yelled at my computer when I saw your headline, thinking it was the worst example of the Gore hysteria. Thus, brilliant satire, because it was only ever-so-slightly more crazy than that which it satirizes.

It definitely says a lot about how we see the draft Gore movement that we thought it was entirely real! Fantastic stuff.

Obama supporter/Gore desirer here... and I've gotta admit, after yesterday's Gore-O-rama (not to be confused with Gore/Obama) on the rec list, I was thinking this too!

Many women, when I told them that the singing voice was not his, were crestfallen.

I remember reading that when the actual singer told his wife that he was going to be singing 'Man of Constant Sorrow' in O Brother Where Art Thou, his wife said something along the lines of, "Wow, your voice coming out of George Clooney's mouth? I think that's both of my fantasies combined in one!"

I think that was one of his best acting roles he's ever done. You completely forget that its Clooney under that pomade.

I used to be a big Alice Cooper fan. He grew up in my hometown and has a pretty high profile in Phoenix. I even met him at my place of work. While anybody can have a bad day, he was arrogant and self centered.
Too bad he is an unashamed Bush apologist and war monger. Alice Cooper is the epitome of Rock N' Roll sell out. He made his living off rock and roll culture and drug addled teens. Then he found God, dedicated most of his time to playing golf and assails the culture that made him rich and famous. He also hasn't done anything musically interesting since the late 70's. He puts out records every 5 years, but they sell like crap. He still tours but it is usually state fair shows or big multi-band shows because he has now drawing power.
A few years ago while Alice rambled on a about his political views, he said that rock stars should stay out of politics. Hello? (Pot.. Kettle.. black) He went as far as to say that music performers like John Lennon and Green Day were misguided and should just shut up an play. Alice.. John Lennon & Green Day know (knew JL) more about Rock N Roll than you will ever know about anything. Political rebellion is what rock is about. Alice seemed to understand that when he did this video. Alice.. You are no John Lennon.

how to wear a suit.
Oh yeah, all the women may swoon over his chiseled features, his delectably mature salt-and-pepper hair, his perfect physique (though less perfect in Syriana)...
But for me, it's those suits. Nicely tailored, Saville Row, charcoal grey, or on occasion a delicate pinstripe...

Some wonderful acting, and I really liked the cinematography.
At least 2-3 Oscar nominations in there, and some Golden Globes, for sure.
