In the movie Due Date, Zach Galifianakis' character, Ethan Tremblay, runs a fan page for the TV show Two and a Half Men. And transferring discussion of a real-life debate into the realm of cinema, Galifianakis' Ethan breaks down the dynamics and minutiae of the hit TV show, leading to the overarching question: who is the real linchpin of the show, Charlie Sheen or Jon Cryer? Or could it even be "half a man" Angus T. Jones? Robert Downey Jr., trapped in the passenger seat, makes a good foil, condescendingly humoring Ethan's obsession. In light of recent events in the personal life of Charlie Sheen, the "big question" may have actually been answered.
