Will X. Hunting

Perhaps he learned the "Do you like apples" line in Gordon Wood. Or Vickers.

You know, perhaps it is! I should research it more thoroughly before making assumptions.

Hey Robert Moses, I started reading The Power Broker yesterday. Even the Introduction gave me chills! Good golly, that man Caro knows how to spin a yarn.

That bit's definitely my least favorite part of Good Will Hunting. Not because the guy looks 35, or because of his hair, but because I don't think even the most clueless and un-self-aware Harvard student would ever say something that blithely idiotic.

I assume it would drain over time. Harvard, like any other school, doesn't spend its endowment, it spends the interest accrued on the endowment, so if that resource is tapped into, I don't think any amount of alumni contributions would replenish it fully.

Maybe that's why it's my favorite! It has such depth and emotion.

I remember when I first realized that the word communique was the word I spoke as "communi-kay." I always read the word as "commun-eek." TURNS OUT IT'S THE SAME WORD! That was a banner day for Old Arthur.

MERCY, those look fantastic.

Groundhog Day, you woodchuck-chuckers!

"Maybe his advisors are confused."

"This deck of cards is a little frayed around the edges, then again so am I, and I've got fewer suits."

Every now and then, I'll think of some small element of Grim Fandango - a bit of the game's score, perhaps, or a snippet of dialogue. And even those little stimuli fill me with all sorts of nostalgia and joy and wonder. It's my favorite game ever, period, end of story.

I recall that The Literalist was the most pedantic of the malefactors in DC's Rogues Gallery.

Well, we can certainly agree on that: Roscoe Conkling was a real jerk!

I hope Hayes wasn't anticipating this comment section! My gibes were fondly intended, I assure you.

I adore the satisfaction he injects into the line, "Well I will not go! How do you like that?"

"I must now think over my position and how I may improve it."

A bigger injustice is that Stephen Root was not included in the group that won the SAG Award for Best Cast. Dammit, Root was essential!!!

You Like Ike!
