To be fair, Ernest Cline also had all sorts of bad ideas for Fanboys. “It is no classic” is a huge understatement. That movie was a smoldering shitburger pie at a rendering plant potluck in the middle of August.

Me and the guys have been ripping off Cheers every night now for fifteen years.

I’m pretty sure they crate him, Michael Rooker and Lou Ferrigno up and move them from comic con to comic con. When he’s good, he gets to do stuff like this.
