Stiles plays a man they call "Mailman" he's in the very beginning of the movie. In fact his character dies about 4 minutes
into it, but he's also in torwards the end as a flashback. In this movie Ryan plays a big part because lots of the characters
in it are related to him (in the movie) and think of him as a hero.

who is a demolitionist, his part in this play is much bigger then the first Hot Shots movie. Ryan goes on the journey with

best friends "Lewis Michelangelo Kiniski" who is not the smartest character and one who likes to goof
around with his buddies.

A note from me: Ryan Stiles is a multi talented actor
who is way under rated! It wonders me why the cast of whose line are the smartest and best actors in the world at making stuff
up but they never get there own films? They should I mean if you think about if Ryan Stiles probably has more fan site than
any other actor in the world, he should star in a movie!
Favorite Ryan Stiles moment
Whose Line
Durring a scene when Ryan has to act out that his head keeps sticking to things, runs his head strait into the
glass light at Drews dest shattering the glass and probably causing Ryan some pain!
Colin responds afterwards: It would have been cool if your head bursted
to flames.
Ryan later says: Do I get any points for that?
Drew responds: Im sorry! We spent all the points replacing the glass
Ryan eventualy flips Drew off and the game continues [Good Times]
Ryan Stiles (on a scale of 10): 8.7 hes awsome,
funny, and probley other things too!

BIOGRAPHY:
Ryan Stiles, the youngest of five children was born in Seattle, Washington to Canadian parents. He
grew up in a modest but loving environment provided by his mother, a
homemaker, and his father, a supervisor at a Vancouver-based
fish processing plant.When he was 10, his family moved to Vancouver.
Although he was a good student, Stiles admits that
"being a high-school senior gave me too much freedom." He got so carried away with his flexible schedule that he quit school
a
few months shy of graduation. At age 17, he dropped out of high school to pursue comedy full time. In spite of his parents'
objections, he was able to support himself doing
stand-up routines at small comedy clubs near his home in Vancouver, British
Columbia.
It was while he was working at one of the local clubs that he met Pat McDonald a graphic artist moonlighting
as a waitress. The couple lived together for 10 years before marrying in 1989.
In 1986, Ryan joined the highly acclaimed
Second City comedy ensemble in Toronto, and later in L.A, where he honed his improvisational skills. Then in 1990 he landed
a spot in the original British version of "Whose Line is it Anyway" which lasted for 9 years. His performance on the program
earned him both critical praise and a devoted fan following in the U.K. This break lead to numerous guest shots on U.S. TV
programs such as "Murphy Brown", "Mad About You", and "The John Larroquette Show", and an audition for the part as Lewis Kiniski
on the "Drew Carey Show." Work in the U.S. movie industry soon followed, including roles in such feature films as "Hot Shots!",
"Hot Shots! Part Duex", "Courting Courtney", as well as the Academy Award-nominated short, "Rainbow War".
During the 1994-95
baseball strike, Stiles was cast to make some memorable commercials for Nike. One of his most memeorable was Ryan in the empty
baseball stadium doing the wave solo.
It was Stiles' idea to import "Whose Line" and worked to get Patterson and Carey
together to bring the the low-budget/high-profit improv show to the American audience. Stiles and Drew Carey serve as stars
and executive producers in the highly successful show.
Last season Stiles directed an episode of The Drew Carey Show titled
"Kate vs. Speedy."
When he's not at work, Stiles enjoys gardening and spending time on his four-acre ranch in a small
farming town in Washington state. He lives with his wife, and their two
children. Third child, daughter Claire, born January
2004.
