Dane Cook

The fact that Dane Cook easily fills sports arenas says everything about the comedian’s rapid rise to rock-star status. By building a rabid fan base through MySpace, he burst out of the gates and onto a new plateau of overexposure with a jockish humor that revels in jokes about being out at “the club” with your bros. He nosedived trying to pull off leading-man roles in romantic comedies like My Best Friend’s Girl and Good Luck Chuck, and returns now to his bread and butter with a large-scale tour to appease the huddling “SuFi” masses. His latest movie, Answers To Nothing, is due out next year and is billed as a drama about lost souls searching for the meaning of life. God help us all.
