[Troll King]

Andy Kaufman.

[syzygy]

[Troll King]

Watch the movie and find out


Seriously though, Andy Kaufman is one of the most uniquely funny individuals ever. Many people believed he even faked his death as part of an elaborate joke.

[Jerome Scuggs]

i saw man on the moon

sux how he dies and shit

EDIT: HOLY SHIT I JUST REALIZED THATS R.E.M. $$ I NEVER KNEW THAT WAS A SONG ABOUT KAUFMAN

LIEK WOAH

[ZeUs!!]

Is the song not from rem suck the soundtrack to the film?

[Jason]

Whenever I see REM, I think REO Speed Dealer.

[Verthanthi]

I think of QBasic

[Troll King]

The song came out years before the movie though, Zeus.

[ZeUs!!]

And so the mystery is solved

[Machine of God]

Is the movie based on the song? or is it just coincidentdscs however the fuck its spelted.

[Troll King]

Bah...

Both the film and the song are based on the life of Andy Kaufman. The song came out first as a tribute to him and the movie came out years later to tell his life story.

[ÆNIMA]

Who didn't know that? I got an aluminum girl's softball bat waiting for you...

[Arc]

That was a great movie funny as hell.
