I just got done watching the new Batman: Year One movie and wow, Bryan Cranston as Gordon? Fantastic. Makes me wish they had put him in the Nolan movies (and I love Oldman but... CRANSTON!).
Seriously.
This guy? We are watching both Breaking Bad and Malcom in the Middle right now and he is just amazing in both. In Breaking Bad he's the most intense and charged character I've ever seen on TV. In Malcom, he's able to go full comedy and we are constantly impressed by his physical ability. He uses his body to hilarious effect. We just saw him in DRIVE and he stole every scene he was in.
Cranston. Bryan Cranston.
Everything is better with some Bryan Cranston in it.

At dunkin we had this one regular that no one knew the name of, so I instinctively named him Bryan Cranston. A few days later I remembered who that actually was and was like "aw snap"

I said the exact same thing about Cranston in the movie watching thread after having seen Year One. Dude is awesome.

Right?

Cranston was an excellent Gordon.

And he looks like Gordon! I mean, like I said, I love Gary Oldman but... CRANSTON!

For Gordon in Batman Year One, Cranston does look more like a guy that used to beat up Green Berets for sport than Oldman...

Woah woah woah woah...

There's a new Batman movie?

WITH BRIAN FUCKING CRANSTON IN IT?

Internet, you have failed to keep me informed!

This is a true statement. It may in fact be the truest.

A toast to the Pizza Man!

When it's not about bafflingly prostitutish Catwoman, it's pretty good.

I meant that it's baffling that anyone (except for Frank Miller I guess) thought it was a good idea. Her whole story was out of place and drug down the rest of the movie.

Yeah her entire purpose in the movie was to basically get in Batman's way that one time. I can't speak to the comic where she may have played a bigger role but for this film it didn't really matter.

Bryan Cranston is amazing. There's a reason he won three fucking straight Best Actor Emmys (will likely win 4), and he also probably got robbed of a Malcolm Emmy or two.

Also, not just TV, he was one of the best parts of Drive that just came out.

And people wonder why I think he's a misogynist.

Anywho... I recently started re-watching Malcom in the Middle on Netflix and had the exact same thought the other day about how freaking awesome Mr. Cranston is.

When summer break rolls around, I plan on getting caught up on Breaking Bad.

I was flipping through channels recently and came across King of Queens. Lo and behold, there was Cranston!

It didn't make King of Queens a good show, but it sure brightened my day.

Everyone has a low point in their life man, even Cranston.

Hey I liked King of Queens.

I liked Jerry Stiller.

Jerry Stiller is always hilarious. Except in Airport.

Bryan Cranston was really hilarious on Seinfeld.

If memory serves, he played a recurring role as Jerry's dentist.

He played Tim Whatley, a dentist who disliked Jerry for many reasons.
