Ben Stiller tells Mickey Rooney about Twitter, and Rooney. See Grandpa and Grandma aren’t hopeless when it comes to computers, they’d just prefer to talk to you face-to-face, rather than read your 140 character updates on your Twitter page.

Below are a few videos of Rooney and Judy Garland. Judy had such an incredible voice. Back in their day actors had to sing, dance, act, and do acrobatics to entertain. Today, not so much.

Also appearing in the movie are Jack Black, Nick Nolte, Tom Cruise (in a fat suit), Matthew McConaughey, and Tobey Maguire. Owen Wilson was supposed to appear, but that was right about the time he tried to commit suicide.
