A miracle named Francis:

What movie were you watching? The James Woods character alone is hilarious. Also the cut to the mob boss telling Alan King's character that Ace should try to low profile then cut to the opening credits of his talk show is with 'Also Sprach Zarathustra' and that monotone showgirl announcer saying "Aces High!" is one of

It's also interesting to find out how the big stars treat the supporting actors and crew. Which ones are decent and which are assholes.

Loved the anecdote about Jon Hamm and James Garner.

Favorite Billie Jean-related joke starts at 3:47 of this Daily Show special from 1999:

When Q arrives on Star Trek Deep Space Nine and Chief O'Brien who had served on the Next Generation but as a minor character and not one of the main cast confronts him,

They did a joke like that recently on the Flash(which airs on Tuesdays) about always facing a new bad guy on a Tuesday.

Giles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer tends to get knocked out a lot, especially in the early seasons. In one season 3 episode he gets knocked out again and is found by Cordelia and we get this great exchange:

I've been reading the TV Tropes sites for years so I've become used to it's failings. It is fun to contribute to anyway.

Yeah, people complain about the Ben Kingsley's Mandarin turning out to be just an actor but I thought that was brilliant.

The sadder video is the one where Worf gets denied by Captain Picard and his fellow crew members over and over and over again. Nobody takes his advice or listens to him!

According to Richard E. Grant's published film diaries "Withnails and I", originally Danny Aiello's character was going to really die, but before filming the scene Danny decided he wanted to make it to the end so they came up with that solution at the last second, and they made him up and did his hair to look like he

In "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" Professor McGonagall played by Maggie Smith in exasperation asks the trio of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley: "Why is it when something happens, it is ALWAYS you three?" after they are once again involved in another bizarre incident at the Hogwarts school and

At the time I think it was refreshing that a female character who didn't was like Cybil Shepard and looked like a regular person was given storylines of her own on a TV show.

I was in a middle school production of Taming of the Shrew and our drama teacher showed us the Moonlighting parody. We borrowed the episode's altered ending where instead of Katherine gives a speech about "wives should obey their husbands" as she does in the original play, Petruchio talks about husbands being nicer to

"What they made Wanda and Pietro do throughout the movie was like if all the French terrorists/mercenaries spent the hijacking talking amongst themselves like Pepe Le Pew."

There's so much complaining about Widow being reduced to a "love interest" when if you actually examine it, he's HER love interest and the relationship is mostly from her POV.

If you remove all the stuff you mentioned involving Natasha you didn't like you would still have Natasha with the other Avengers attacking the Hydra base, overcoming her fear of the Hulk to calm him down, caring for Clint who was wounded, participating in the first fight against Ultron at Avengers Tower, being a

Or it's a valid criticism that fans overlook because we want McClaine to save the day and the actor Paul Gleeson had been playing assholes in TRADING PLACES and THE BREAKFAST CLUB so we automatically hate him!
