[edit] Vandalism?

Goldblum is credited in the filmography with Playmate Pajama Party. I couldn't find his name associated with it anywhere on IMDB. Is there a source for this?Pieapples43 (talk) 04:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Uhh... It's visible both on his IMDb page and the one for the thing... I noticed this after reading it here, surprisingly enough. --V2Blast (talk) 03:44, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Hollywood's Tallest Actors"

I don't see why this needs to be in the article, it's not really true. I mean aren't there entire groups of henchman-playing actors that get cast simply because they're 6'6+? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.79.2.132 (talk) 20:01, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gypsy?

Is he a Gypsy? The bio says Eastern European, but his appearance is hardly that of a native European. He looks Indian, so I am thinking Gypsy.

Answer; You are plainly an idiot. Your knowledge of European ethnic-groups and history is clearly unsurpassed. My thoughts are that he is likely from the same Roma-clan as that other well known Gypsy Mel Brooks, and also possibly 4 out of 5 of the Marx brothers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.215.145.209 (talk)

Do not use personal attacks. Also, Mel Brooks and all 5 Marx Brothers are/were Jewish, not Roma/Gypsy. As for the original question, Jeff Goldblum is of Jewish ancestry according to this article. Jews, like Europeans, have diverse appearances. -kotra 00:28, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reference to child with Geena Davis

I can find no documentation to the reference that Goldblum had a child with Geena Davis, so I removed it.

[edit] Animal Crossing

Is this true? And if it is, isn't there a better way to work it into the article?

[edit] Jurassic Park IV

does anyone know if he will he playing Ian Malcolm in it? I sure hope so

[edit] Taco Bell Franchise?

I doubt there's any truth to this.

[edit] Internet Meme

Recently I've seen a major Internet meme on 4chan, which always uses this Jeff Goldblum picture: http://orz.4chan.org/wg/src/1188777370841.jpg

The caption is not always there, and the accompany comment is usually something spoken formally, such as "I sympathize with you Mr Wall" or "I don't find that amusing at all". Does anyone know more about this meme, what it's called, how it started? -JodoYodo 00:37, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

No, but it might have something to do with his voyeuristic, coprophilic tendencies. -kotra 00:10, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photo

Somebody REALLY needs to update his photo. He doesn't look like this anymore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.220.51.136 (talk) 09:39, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Television

Wasn't he a guest host on Saturday Night Live?

Yeah, he played Count Feedback on Goth Talk, but maybe something else. I'd put it in, but I don't know what else he done when he was on there. --Scareth (talk) 00:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Illeana Douglas

I saw part of the documentary about him going to play Music Man in Pittsburgh on TV. Are they dating? Or were they? I can't find any information for sure, but they did appear in another film and they both are mentioned on many Google results pages. If somebody else reads US Weekly more than I do, have at it. --Stargat (talk) 15:11, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
