I would submit that you, sir, are a low point in his career.

Why are you obsessing over awards-shoe-in motion picture 'The Cable Guy'.
I just remember it being one he regretted making or something like that. I may have misremembered entirely, but I understood it to be a low point in his career.
Do you not think that the cable guy was a misunderstood look into the loneliness of life, and deserved many awards.
Your question lacks a mark, but I'll accept the syntax reordering. In all honesty, I haven't seen the film in a long time. Feel free to come over and make me watch it, looking over me expectantly during the good bits and annotating the bits you really love by saying "I love this bit."

What are the worst character traits people can have?
Well, this one turned into a Pandora's Box when I actually went to write out what I hate in other people and then go on to say why. I wanted to do this question justice and give a good overview of the "why" as well as the "what", but it turned out to be so long as to warrant a proper blog post.<br />
<br />
So, firstly, here's the summary of some "worst character traits" that came to mind: willful ignorance; right-leaning senses of entitlement, egocentricity and national pride; sweeping apathy; and lack of ambition.<br />
<br />
People happy with that and adverse to long-winded writing might want to stop now, but for those that want my full explanations and justifications can read here: http://avengerpenguin.com/Comment/Worst-Character-Traits.html
Which would you say is a better comedy actor: Jim Carrey or Robin Williams?
Jim Carrey is probably better with aspects of comedy such as slapstick and spoofing. His work on Saturday Night Live included a very good parody of Vanilla Ice, though little stands up to Mr. Ice's own self-parody.<br />
<br />
I seem to associate Robin Williams with being more of an actual actor, however. I can recall a few more serious films and even the comedy ones have their earnest moments. In contrast, I can't put my finger on a contemplative moment in Ace Ventura.<br />
<br />
So, I'll say Robin Williams as a better comedy actor overall, despite Carrey's comedic strengths.

What is your favourite genre to read? What about films?
I mostly read comedy, but used to be into some gothic stuff a while back. I've not read fiction for a long time now, so I guess really it's mostly Private Eye these days.<br />
<br />
As for films, they're not the easiest things to read. I suppose you can read the ones with subtitles and I have a few like that. One of my favourites of all time is Der Untergang (Downfall) and that has subtitles.
What has four wheels and flies?
A jellycopter.
