He must kill Hitler himself.

Re: Eddie Izzard in......
Fri, February 1, 2008 - 11:56 AMAnd don't forget that Eddie is doing the voice of the ass-kicking rodent Reepicheep in the next Chronicles of Narnia film, Prince Caspian.
I did not care much for Across the Universe. I love The Beatles, but I felt the movie didn't use the songs to their full potential (except for Let It Be). It's really just a dull re-telling of every other Vietnam-related story we've seen before in movies and on TV.
Eddie is only in it for 2 minutes, maybe. He shows up, "sings" For the Benefit of Mr. Kite, and then is never heard from again. I would not recommend watching the whole movie just to see Eddie. -

Fri, February 1, 2008 - 12:09 PMAh' man, that really sucks he's only in the movie for like 2 minutes, well I'm glad I didn't waste the money to check it out in theaters.
Awsome! I couldn't think of anyone better to be the voice for Reepicheep. I've read all the books and seen all the made for t.v version and never quite thought they got him right. In fact I didn't even know they were going to continue with the series.
