Machete Kills is an idiotic title.  Machete kills in every one of those suck-wind movies.

"I think we demand closure. We want things to be finished."

"Interesting counterpoint to that is the Harry Potter books which were perfectly scheduled to mature with their audience as they were initially released."

Hey, you're leaving out the contributions of Kevin J Anderson!  Is there any pre-existing property that human-shaped leech won't attach himself to?

"Don Draper doesn’t exist."

"And mine is I never voted.  So we're on the same level now because we both admitted our embarrassing secrets."

You really think they (e.g., Harmon) like Glee?

"Why would I want to watch something I love with someone who clearly hates it?"
