Bob Odenkirk and Richard Schiff are thundersome.

There's no way he's a decent person.

Once upon a time, I came across a dictionary for advanced students mastering English. It was called FORBIDDEN ENGLISH.

They didn't fire him.

They both do that bit. Conan is just massively awkward about it. Whenever he's introducing his monologue, it's like he's trying to point out that he has to do this, but doesn't really want to.

A contrite Leno will appear on Conan in six months, shortly after it becomes public that the only way Jeff Zucker would let Leno have The Tonight Show back was if he could drive Jay's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Coupe around while Leno slowly did a 'Toronto Icefist' for him in the passenger seat.

The weirdest thing about the Odessa Steps sequence?

I like when Salieri says "The only thing that worried me was the actual killing. How does one do that? Hmmm?" and then the Priest's face.

Yeah, you're right. No-one has ever been unable to have children, grown old, or had to watch the love of their life die before.

Actually, Brando reading The Hollow Men at the end of Apocalypse Now is among the most amazing things ever done.

Just pop Robert Rodat in there, will you?

Well, yeah. But Randall Wallace always uses those big, obvious allegories as plot devices.

Agreed. I like how understated that moment is — as if him suddenly abandoning everything he promised to his dead wife isn't the most ominous thing in the world.

Well, that's a homage to (some would say "direct rip-off" of) the Odessa Steps sequence in The Battleship Potemkin.

Excellent choice.

The business wing of the Republican party literally clubs the religious wing to death.

See, the Bonasera scene doesn't really stand out — not even in the wedding sequence, let alone the entire movie.
