It's endearing how seriously he treats his craft, too. Tries really hard to maintain the illusion by not letting himself as Triumph be seen.

I've said it for years - Robert Smigel is the absolute funniest guy in show business who no average person has heard of.

Nah, that's the Rudy Giuliani's speech meme

That took me a minute. Well done.

"I'm with it! I'm hip!

YES

Just watch any episode of Pee-Wee's Playhouse, which is historically one of the most successful and quality kids' shows.

I used to love Square One, although I couldn't tell you whatsoever about any math I might've learned from it.

I guess I can't say you're either denying or acknowledging this, but I don't think the ultimate point was to teach the science, as much as it was to generate the interest in the science.

I mean, I suppose with a big enough 3D printer…

To this day I still often use "Now you knowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!" when informing somebody of something.

Looking forward to this. 7 Days in Hell was one of the most under-the-radar funny things I've ever seen. I barely had heard of it at all when it suddenly just dropped on HBO. Kit Harrington was fantastic.

Living room, huh? All right! Welp, see ya later!

The fake-out was helped by the actors involved - Ben Kingsley showed some serious range (going from really terrifying figure to complete goober in the same movie), and I thought Guy Pearce was just really good as a villain.

The only downside in that regard was the last 5 minutes: "Oh by the way we fixed X, Y, and Z. Welp, see ya later!"

It was basically a mix of The Great Outdoors and Tommy Boy, with elements of some run-of-the-mill political thriller, and honestly a little Animal House too (the presence of National Lampoon alumni helps that).

"Well, you know, I did a movie called Black Sheep. Maybe you saw it the first time, when it was called Tommy Boy!"
- Teri Hatcher as David Spade

That was indeed a decent story, but that made it decidedly NOT Robocop, if that makes any sense.

I never made the connection between Ghostbusters and Men in Black. I like it.
