    > The man on the left of Babe is HUGE!

    The man to the left of Oliver Hardy at the beginning of the film is George Mann, who was 6' 6". His partner Dewey Barto was 4' 11". Their disparities in height was an important element of Barto and Mann's comedic dance act.

    I agree. Adam Sandler has never been funny. He was a joke on SNL and his movies are lame crap. Same with Farrell. Every once in a while on SNL he was ok but his movies are stupid. Both of them are hyped by a Hollywood movie industry that is in serious decline. Look at the movies playing this summer. How many times are we going to see the re-hash of Spiderman and Batman, Aliens (i.e. Prometheus), teenage vampires (Twilight series) or video game zombies? All of it is shit!

    To me a person who can make you laugh without using bad words and all that vulgarity is a gifted person Laurel&Hardy are the most talented and gifted performers the world has ever seen so many "comedians" today steal a lot from them.

    Nice to see them loving life. I suppose that golf course is long buried under some housing development.

    The entire genre of super-hero movies is pathetic including the tired Batman series. You may love them but that only tells us your intellectual and emotional age. Grow up.
