hey man got a big box of porn for you
60% of the time he’ll make you laugh
every time that doesn’t make sense
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our top 10 favorite
Paul Rudd performances you ladies play
your cards right you just might get to
meet the whole gang number 10
Chuck kunu Forgetting Sarah Marshall
kicking off our list is Ruud
scene-stealing cameo as a STONER surf
instructor named Chuck sorry kunu I’m
Kenya yeah no I remember I’m Peter we
took a surplus together oh yeah you’re
that gather was with Kaiser Permanente
no in his brief time on screen he
consoles Jason seagulls conflicted
character and by that we mean he
confuses the hell out of him with his
laid-back worldview hello you look down
here and I don’t know I quit wearing a
watch and I move dad here wow that’s so
cool ya know like my cell phone has a
clock on it so I don’t really need it
this role suits rudd to a tee he’s
absent-minded
full of non sequiturs and mega cocky
what’s that old saying there Chuck when
life gives you lemons just like the
lemons fail number nine
Danny Donahue role models deadpan
sarcasm much congratulations were stupid
in three languages thanks to his efforts
as an actor and writer this film is
anything but a cookie cutter comedy
besides Sean William Scott
red plays an irresponsible energy drink
salesman who gives not so helpful advice
to some teens and yada yada yada they’re
sentenced to community service as big
brothers drugs why do kids take drugs
cuz are awesome this role lets Reds
trademark wit and sullen hostility shine
through while also proving he’s an
excellent larper sorry
fun though right it’s a blast contagious
I know totally
number 8 Mike Hanigan friends say what
you will about friends in its later
seasons but there was one distinctly
good part and that was Paul Rudd he
plays the guy who’s finally weird enough
to keep up with Phoebe
I’m a pretty nice guy just ask my parole
officer apparently I’m not a funny guy
they’re perfectly matched
thanks to their oddball sensibilities
and love of music he’s not so much with
the dirty talk but he’s such a good
pianist he doesn’t even need a keyboard
number seven Pete knocked up Rudd
supporting role in this movie was so
successful it spawned the spinoff this
is 40 but more than anything
Red’s pardon knocked up gives us the
chance to see him move seamlessly from
some iffy Robert De Niro and Doc Brown
impressions you got my shoes you did
your water beautiful my shoes to some
life questions so weird though when you
have a kid and all your dreams and hopes
just go right out the window
Rudd’s relatability and borderline
shattered performance makes him the
perfect everyman I can be okay man oh
who knows is anybody okay I’m not okay
you’re asking the wrong guy just don’t
ask me to lend you any money you know
number six
Ned Rockland our idiot brother as a
bearded hippie who can’t get his life
together red wins over audiences with
his carefree charm
he truly inhabits this role with his
perpetual honesty
upbeat nature and unyielding optimism
plus a pair Crocs it seems a little too
easy for red to play a guy with no
common sense but he does manage to give
us a memorable film simpleton who never
becomes a cliche I said I just I feel
really hot right
do you want to expand on that all I want
is I take that picture and just dump it
onto my white penis and balls number
five and II wet hot American summer my
butt itches we love watching Paul Rudd
be a dick
even to kids cut it out Bobby you’re
fine
in this send-up of 80s summer camp
flicks rut is an egotistical douche
lifeguard who doesn’t care about anyone
or anything he’s irresponsible
continually mutters his innermost
thoughts at random and radically changes
his mind at a moment’s notice you why
are you being such an asshole I gotta
finish my breakfast I love you baby so
good somehow he keeps getting chicks
like Elizabeth Banks but she learns the
hard way that he’s a total ass it’s like
a burger I like you anymore number four
Peter Clavin I Love You Man slap at the
bass that sounded like Borat yeah you
know what Paul read secret is he’s a
huge geek and that’s what makes this
performance work he’s a real estate
agent with no guy friends who gets
caught up in a bromance that actually
jeopardizes his relationship the
chemistry between Rudd and Jason Segel
is genuine as is their shared love of
Rush is the film touching with a dash of
awkward totes mcgoats but that’s why we
dig it I love you dude I love you bro
Montana I love you Holmes I love you
broseph glaybels I love you muchacha
I Love You Tico bro hey okay number
three David the 40 year old virgin on
the surface this guy is another Paul
Rudd everyman character but look closer
and he’s full-blown nutty and no one
could play that as effectively as Rudd
you lose weight and you put back on
weight and then you you know you call
him a bunch of times and you try and
email and then they move where they
change their email but that’s just love
he starts off as one of Steve Carell
normal co-workers but steadily pokes
holes in his calm persona until he’s
headed towards a nervous breakdown and a
vow of celibacy I feel awesome bonus
it’s impossible not
enjoy his screen time with Seth Rogen
you know I know you’re gay
oh you like Coldplay number two Josh
Lucas clueless with his second ever film
role Rudd scored some serious points
with the ladies and helped preserve a
time capsule of the 90s as Cher’s
handsome yet smug ex stepbrother he
spends most of the film judging her
shallow pop culture based worldview well
I’m just curious how many hours a day do
you spend grooming yourself but of
course he does a 180 and becomes mr.
right it was his breakout role at least
the first time around and once you get
past the incest he’s just adorable and
so young
you
number one Brian Fantana anchorman I
know what you’re asking yourself the
answer is yes I have a nickname for my
penis taking the top spot on our list is
ruts performance as the stylish member
of the group rut where’s that moustache
like a champ
is crazy sexist but still tempts the
ladies with help from a very special
Cologne it’s called sex panther by Odeon
easily his funniest most memorable and
most quotable role the Brian man
re-energized Rudd’s career so what if he
doesn’t know what love is we love him
anyway Ron I know it sounds harsh but
God does not want her to live do you
agree with our list yeah whatever
