He's Playing With Himself

Paul Rudd's great in just about every part he gets nowadays. His effortlessness and distinct charm are probably his most heralded characteristics, though he rounds out his personality with a variety of nuanced high notes. However, before his ease on screen made him famous, Rudd did what any struggling actor would have done: He starred in a Super Nintendo commercial. And in it, he plays F-Zero with such painstaking grace that one would think he was in a control tower landing airplanes of babies (babies who will grow up to cure cancer!).

Hey, everyone starts somewhere; and for many, many young men, that somewhere was in front of a Nintendo.

More of present-day Rudd after the jump.

    Paul Rudd makes me VERY happy. He's so underrated, but I kind of like that. He's not all over the place, he's just doing his thing.

    I LOVE THIS GUY!! Saw him on Letterman the other night–I really enjoyed his funny stories. He grew up in the Midwest–no wonder he can survive Hollywierd!

    Paul Rudd is a naughty boy…he was the only good part of Clueless IMO…spent many a lonely night as a teenage girl thinking dirty thoughts about him!
