I love Seineld and Newman, but my favorite role of his will always be Dennis Nedry in Jurassic Park, and I feel like very few people feel the same way. Every scene with him in that movie was gold, and he was essentially the villain in one of the biggest movies of all time. He was the reason all the dinosaurs escaped.

They should have featured more of Newman...he was kind of a tease..you always wanted more of him. He was such a perfect foil for Jerry,and the ultimate meanie. When I saw him in the movie, JFK, I had to laugh. I thought..what is Newman doing playing a straight role in a Sixties movie about the assasination of JFK??? ...He's NEWMAN!!! Talk about being typecast. He was a great character and always made me laugh. For me, Wayne Knight is and always be the abominable Newman.

It would be AWESOME to hang with him! I got to meet him in 2015 at a Whole Foods in Dallas- he was shopping with his son. He IS a nice guy, he’s the genuine article! I got his autograph, he told a little joke and laughed- LIKE NEWMAN. HA HA. From what I saw there, Newman IS his natural personality, maybe just a little less diabolical. :))

I love Newman...Like Seinfeld said: I have to admit, he is ... merry (..or something similar). If Kramer can have him as a friend, then he sees something in him, and you know Kramer...he is the "oracle" of the show. He see things as they are.
