Reelin’ in the Years

October 17th, 2005

So I finally put a “reel” together, which showcases some of my best work ever over my long and extensive acting career. It includes clips of me running around with angel wings, playing a redneck, speed eating, and of course, the Lathan special, getting hit in the balls. Hopefully this will send out a message to all of those casting agents in special need of a guy getting hit in the balls, “Go with Lathan”. Another interesting tidbit is the button at the end which showcases me asking a question on the talk show, CNN Talk Back Live. I guess this will show agents and casting directors that I have the ability to get kicked out of political talk shows and banned for good, just in case they need that.

Special thanks to Jamey Shafer for his excellent job putting the reel together, and to Will Hines for showing me how to upload the reel to my website. For viewing go to the page titled “Reel” or click on the link below:

Lathan’s Reel

Now crank up some Steely Dan, play some air guitar and if you get a chance, find me some more opportunities where I get hit in the balls.

    Pretty slick of me to come up with that Orange Juice line, huh?

    Wow, I just realized how big of a Southern accent you used to have.

    Good reel!

    Thanks Tony.

    I was actually exaggerating my Southern accent in the CNN Talk Back live scene. But you knew that, right?

    Yes! Yes, of course I… knew that. One would have to be a fool not to realize that you were exaggerating that accent, wouldn’t one? A… fool.

    Wait. Tony, did you type all of that in an exaggerated German accent? It looks like you did. Or did you used to have a German accent back in the day?

    I’m writing this in a “retard” accent.

    I wish I could’ve seen you type that out, Mitch. I bet when you did it was hilarious.
