I don't think that counts. Rocky and Bullwinkle was more of a labor of love for him, inspired by his appreciation for the series when he was young. He was one of the producers who made the movie happen in the first place.

Before I clicked on it I knew it was going to be the Hackett/Korman version. It seems Gilbert Gottfried can't get through a single podcast without "Bud and Lou" coming up.

Actually, third Oscars are important. The first one can always be a fluke and the second can be attributed to voters remembering who you were from the first time you won. It's that third one that cements your true status.

Dammit, you made me google something. Phoenix was under consideration for Dr. Strange, and while that clearly didn't happen, it does seem unlikely he'll ever do anything with superheroes, so good call there.

Sure, now that they've snagged names like Redford, Costner, Close and Swinton, there does seem to be an air of legitimacy. So I guess the question is who would NEVER go near a comic book property. I think we can safely eliminate Robert DeNiro, but after him, who else can be 100% certain wouldn't turn down a superhero…

Dear Pete, so why do hot dogs come in packages of seven but the buns come in packages of eight.

Tom Hiddleston, Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson? So this is a Marvel movie? Or is just impossible to make a new movie without someone who's been in a Marvel flick?

Abbott and Costello weren't even the first team to do "Who's on First?". It was an old Vaudeville staple until A&C got their hands on it, altered what they needed to fit their personas, then perfected it down to the minutest detail.

My wife's birthday is Dec. 7th. She celebrates every year by going out and getting bombed. Oh, wait, right war, wrong front. Sorry about that.

The plot and story of Revenge of the Sith was fine. However, the performances needed better dialog to deliver and a better director to help the actors deliver the dialog so that they didn't sound like they were doing a high school play.

I haven't respected Spielberg since he approved the change to "Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain".

I don't know. I doubt that a cosmic being of Sean's stature would look as if his blood pressure looks like a phone number and he's moments away from having a stroke.

Well, I just ordered the book so I suppose I'll know more in a week or so…

I guess that strange focus explains why Conan O'Brien is in the illustration and David Letterman isn't.

Well, there's a remote possibility that t his solo Spidey movies turn out to be, you know… good. Having Robert Downey Jr. and Marisa Tomei plus Michael Keaton, et al, as the supporting cast bodes pretty well to kick off the series.

If you do go to a red area, just don't invest in an pricey car. Those loving conservative christians will introduce their keys to your paint job at the first glimpse of a "coexist" or "i'm with her" bumper sticker.

Trump loves the uneducated. They're his base!

A pinata!

It was also ridiculous to think that recovery from the depth of the recession could be complete in eight years. Hell, it took entering WWII in 1941 to really kickstart the recovery from the depression in 1929.

I'm still OK in that department as long as the girl in the video I'm watching doesn't have orange hair.
