Enrico from Hotel Tuesday here. When I first started reading Puntabulous, I was so enthralled by Craig’s witty posts that I went far back into Puntabulous history and some old posts. Along the way, I stumbled across this, one of my favorite posts. Not only was it short, simple and funny, but it mentioned Kate Winslet AND I LOLed at Susannah’s comment, which totally made the post pointless.
So anyway, Craig decided that no one liked these entries or something and stopped making them. Whenever he mentions these old entries, I often bug him and tell him to start making them again because I enjoy them.
So when Craig asked for guest bloggers, I figured I could use this opportunity to rally support for the return of Puntabulous Does The Movies!
Here are some examples of Puntabulous Does the Movies that Craig has recently missed out on:
Here is Craig when he was cast as Miley Cyrus’ love interest in Hannah Montana: The Movie.
When shooting began, Hannah’s signature blond wig was often missing from the set. When Miley caught Craig wearing the wig, she had him fired.
Craig was the original actor hired to play Mr. Brown (Madea’s boyfriend) in Madea Goes To Jail.
He was let go when everyone finally realized he wasn’t black.
This is Craig when he briefly played the role of Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant in Sex and the City: The Movie.
But after replacing Sarah Jessica Parker’s wardrobe with only argyle-patterned clothing, he was fired. He was replaced by the equally sassy Jennifer Hudson.
And who could forget Craig’s recent role as Dr. Manhattan in Watchmen?
Unfortunately, Craig was cut from the movie based on audeince reaction during early screenings of the movie. The director later revealed: “All you could hear were gasps when Craig appeared in his full-frontal pose. The women were over-excited and the men looked really uncomfortable. It was such a sight it made it difficult to concentrate on the plot, so the decision was made to get rid of him.” A ‘lesser’ actor was hired to replace him.
Now do you see why Craig needs to bring back PDTM? If he doesn’t, you guys will always remember these poor excuses as the last installments of PDTM, and they deserve better. And did you ever realize that the tag “movies” leads to the link “http://puntabulous.com/category/puntabulous-does-the-movies/”? I say it’s time to make that link actually take us to Puntabulous Doing the Movies! Now who’s with me?




Dr. Manhatten. Funny. Sure, I’m all up for Paint pictures of Craig doing anything (or anyone).
The funniest thing about that old Puntabulous post was that Craig got only a single comment. Now, those few words would have us Puntabupeople going on for *hours*…
Enrico: Awesome. Loved the Hannah Montana panel. Hilarious. And you’re right — Craig should bring these back!
Enrico: You shouldn’t have worried! Michelle M. set the bar pretty high, but you hit this one out of the park! The Doctor Manhattan scene is pretty funny, but I like Craig in jail better, his expression is awesome.
Enrico: YOU should be doing these. You definitely have a knack for them. These are very clever.
Well done Enrico!
hehehehe, Enrickyricardo, great job! I mean you’re no Craiggers when it comes to MSPaint (but then who is?) and you’re a pretty damn good artist in your own right.
I would have thought Craiggers would have been PERFECT for Dr. Manhattan considering how freakishly tall he is. But yeah, Lil Craiggers (Not-So-Lil Craigger (?)) woulda been too much of a distraction, you’re absolutely right.
Since they did a crappy offshoot of the X-Men with just Wolverine, perhaps they could do an offshoot of the Watchmen, with Criaggers as Dr. Manhattan called “Dr. Manhattan Does Dallas”?
HUGS…
Polt: Who’s Dallas? Do we know him? Is he cute? Does he have good hair?
And let’s not forget the time where Mr. McAnally was cast as a Star Trek villain.
“Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaig!”
Shatner had him fired during the first rehearsal after Craig offered him Ex-lax, foolishly forgetting that that was his normal acting style…
Funny Dave.
Polt: If not Dallas, then at least Long Island.
Tam: What constitutes “good hair”?
John: Well for Polt it seems to need a lot of body. I’m still trying to work it out.
Enrico: Great job!
Tam: Polt likes a lot of body? He’d Love me.
Great post Enrico! Craig should totally bring back that feature. It is fun.
Ooops, you meant hair body…I’m stupid.
Enrico: Wait . . . Craig isn’t black?
Tam: Matt Dallas:

I think Polt likes “hair things”, but I don’t know if any one has ever been able to define that. Maybe body is important to a good “hair thing”.
Ryan: Why is he slimey? I think Craig’s standards are slightly higher than slimey confused nakedness.
Chris: You’re right, the “hair thing” is such a mysterious state of being. I’m telling you, mousse is a wonderful thing.
Mark: From what I read you are getting less and less body by the minute. Hope you are feeling better.
I’m trying, but I can’t keep up. so I’m going nite nite.
Tam: I don’t know. I think it’s from Kyle XY, and I don’t watch that.
I have to admit, I am completely confused by the “hair thing”. When asked, he sent me a photo, but I still couldn’t figure it out.
Tam: mousse may be wonderful, but wax is better (at least for me).
Mark: You aren’t stupid and like Tam said, you are the shrinking man! Congrats so far! How are you recovering?
John: I use both. With fine hair the more product the better.
You have to blow dry with mousse though unless you like super crunchy hair which is kind of gross IMHO.
Tam: I have the opposite problem, I have more hair then I need and now that it is so gray, it grows out rather than down. I’ve fixed that by getting the Anderson Cooper cut.
Ohhhh. Anderson Cooper. *dreamy sigh*
Tam: I’ll give you that, but any similarities between he and I end there. Lord knows I’m not inviting anyone to a gun show.
John: I’m really doing great, the only problem I have on the cognitive/aphasia tests is with opposites, and short term memory. I can answer the opposite questions, but it takes me like 5-10 seconds instead of instantly. And I tend to forget, not so much in the last few days. My neurologist is really happy and so am i. just waiting for the new pathways to kick in.
That’s awesome to hear, Mark!!! Glad things are going so well.
Mark: Excellent news. I hope I wasn’t prying. I didn’t know what procedure you had done (and don’t need to know) but was hoping that your recovery was going smoothly, which is sounds like it is. I hope things only continue to go well.
Who on Puntabulous is a computer expert?
Dave S.: I’m no expert, but I have some resources, what you got?
john: Actually, I really don’t need any help. I just need to know who on here might be an expert.
Why, you may ask? It’s a secret.
John: youre not prying. I just have trouble remembering who I told my first day out of hospital. I was in an auto accident and had a “CHI”, (closed head injury). I was out for a few days but it was really minor as far as damage is concerned. I’m really lucky! The damaged neural pathways that are messed up should reconnect in a month or so. Sorry this took so long to send but I have to think about everything i type and reread it before i send.
Dave S.: Gotcha. Many of my good friends work in IT, so I have a pretty good network to help answer questions. I’m so not an expert, so I am of no interest for your future secret plans.
The day you need to figure out how to tell someone bad news, figure out if they are clinically mentally ill or how to fire someone, then I can be helpful.
Damn. I’m glad of your luck, Mark, and that you’re still with us.
And I mean that.
john: Hmm… Interesting… I may have a use for that information… [thoughtfully smoothing my nonexistent mustache...]
Mark: No worries at all! I’m just glad you are doing well and that the prognosis is so good.
I had a suspected CHI about 12 years ago. I was injured during a restraint, when my head and the patient’s head collided. They thought I cracked the back of one of my sinuses. Luckily, I didn’t have a fracture.
Mark: Glad to hear you’re doing well.
Enrico: Great post! Welcome to the world of off topic commenting!
Craig: You say that like it is a bad thing.
Dave: No computer expert here. Just so you know.
I can however tell you to call 944-HELP and “maybe” a tech guy will help you or maybe he’ll give that ultimate tech advice “reboot your machine”. Yeah, thanks for that Mr. Expert. (Yes, I’m bitter.)
Mark: How scary. Glad you are going to make a full recovery.
Craig: We started on topic, sheesh, give us some credit.
Thanks everyone!
Dave S. – I tried to make Craig with the Hannah Montana wig not look like you… not sure if I succeeded.
And Matt Dallas is in Katy Perry’s “Thinking of You” video (I love that song/vid!)
Enrico: Oh, well if he’s not slimey that would be an improvement. Not sure I’ve seen that video.
Tam: You can find a lot of non-slimy pictures on Google.
Enrico: My entire knowledge of Hannah Montana comes from a Robot Chicken parody (http://www.adultswim.com/video/?episodeID=8a2505951e5ec5d3011e5fffcec3008a).
Ryan w/ cupcake – Lol! I saw that episode (I love RC!) and it was a great spoof. I love the ending and the Lindsay Lohan cameo.
Cupcake: I’m liking you more and more! That was AWESOME! The end comparison to that Zoey 101 whore made me snort! Lohan’s cameo was great too. I missed that episode.
Enrico: I’m waiting for them to announce a fifth season.
Also, guess whom I’m listening to right now.
john: I can’t remember the details of the clip. My computer at work doesn’t have sound, so I will have to re-watch it when I get home.
Shoot, that video link doesn’t work here. Have to wait till I get home. We aren’t Hannah Montana fans at our house. Certainly not the TV show anyway.
My God, there’s 6 comments, I leave to do laundry and now there’s 46!! WTF!!!
Well, anyways, let’s see if I can catch up…
Tam: Obviously I meant the town Dallas, but hell, I knew a guy named Dallas once and if Craiggers wants to do him, I’m selling tickets and popcorn to the event cause that would be AWESOME!
Tam & john & anyone else: hairthing’s don’t necessarily involved a lot of body (although them being attached to a HOT body is defiinitely a plus). Basically, it’s just long-ish, well maintained, well styled hair on a guy. Could be anything from an emo combover over the eyes, to a long mane of blonde hair. similar to what Justice Potter said in the Supreme Court pornography case “I can’t define a hairthing, but I know it when I see it!”
HUGS…
john: I sent you a photo of a hairthing? And it didn’t help with the explanation??? Hmm, I’ll have to try harder then….
HUGS…
Mark: Glad to hear you’re doing so well! Keep improving!
HUGS…
Polt: The Justice Potter explanation actually cleared things up considerably. The photo you sent made sense to the extent that it was a scantily clad Asian guy and I could see what you liked in him (other than *you* in him).
I think I was confused that a hair thing was a specific cut/style rather than an overall quality of hair care and styling.
