Eh… not really. Certainly across much of the world people want some sort of supernatural intervention in their lives and in most cultures religion fills that demand to varying extents. But the core of the religion is usually about something else. Buddhism is almost about the exact opposite of being about getting…

Indiana's a pretty feminine name to begin with, really.

Anna Faris as Indiana Jones.

Spider-Man is in a worse situation. Origin stories can be tired, and more movies should be willing to just skip to the heroism, but it's possible to tell an original and compelling story within that framework. Bildungsromans have been a popular story type for a very long time.

One factor with American snack food is that much of it was invented a time when the technology to do so was very primitive, so people were happy to settle for something a bit off, instead of whatever gruel they had been eating previously. And then when technology got better, Americans were more accustomed to that…

Honestly, I kind of like the word, almost precisely because of how "soulless and generic" it is. It's nonjudgmental: here's some stuff to look at, you can make your own decisions about it later if you want. I don't think it necessarily makes content into a product (after all, quite a lot of "content" out there is…

"Pitt the Elder."

There's no commenter named Les Winan.

Bart had a blue shirt in early official merchandise for some reason.

I don't know if I'd call him mainly a voice actor. He has quite a lot of live action roles on his IMDB page compared to a Billy West or what have you. It's just that that he's so successful in one particular animated work that it tends to overshadow everything else.

Although people call it a goiter, a goiter is specifically caused by enlargement of the thyroid gland, and as far as I can tell Lucas is just fat.

I'm of the same age, and I guess I might've recognized him from Short Circuit, but that just means he was in the same level of perceived fame as "Fisher Stevens, who is an actual Indian-American and not a guy in brownface."

No it's not, it's apt! Apt!

Woo, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers

Ha ha what a story, ImpromptuJ.

He somehow managed to pull himself from whatever country he's from to do whatever the hell he did to get the money to produce a movie, so he's gotta be good at something.

Don't worry, there's plenty of inane garbage mathematicians upload to arXiv that gets taken seriously by the media too.

I first saw Mr. Show on the "almost Adult Swim" lineup they used to run when actual Adult Swim had anime night. So that has to count for something.

Even if he was alive he'd be too old for the part. You'd need Hoffman from the late 90s.

Olaf in Frozen was far less annoying than I expected him to be, so he must be doing something right.
