Exactly. I don't think it's exactly the Watergate cover-up that we didn't mention that. Mindy Kaling and Amelie GIllette are different people.

You mean this?

You're right. And I probably should have gotten into that a bit more. My take: I'm not sure if that's who he is so much as the role he plays in that setting. Talking to the angel, he's a stern evil spirit. Talking to Faust, at first, he uses logic to tempt him. In a humble village setting, he's a jolly lech. He's the…

"Renzo" is my second favorite here. I love Fellini like I love few directors, but his bit overstays its welcome.

Oh, and Fantastic Four. Or FF, or whatever.

I would add Avengers, New Avengers, and Avengers Academy to that list.

Corrected. And yes.

I hate that American Graffiti change so much. It was right that it looked mundane before. Here's this diner that looks like nothing special as the sun goes down. But once the sun sets it become a magical, glowing place. Now it looks like Mel's is located on Naboo. Grr…

What the hell? I need to find out why some of these are posting with my Twitter handle.

Yeah, that's me. Our comments system has a glitch in the matrix.
