Made you laugh and made you think. He went beyond stand-up into new territory – a deep, important analysis of a world that shits on itself, day-in,day-out.

Though his material rings eternal, I doubt anyone could do him justice on the silverscreen and Crowe is way too old anyway. If it has to be done it would work best with an unknown – and someone who can capture the fire and anger that drove Hicks’s comedy.

One thing’s for sure – I’d love to hear what Hicks would make of this piece of casting…!

Remember when telling people they were soulless, meatpuppets working for The Man and that they should kill themselves was edgy? God, I miss Bill Hicks.
