Woody Allen definitely. In 'Sleeper' he's being pushed to heroics he's not up to and replies "Oh no, you've got the wrong guy. I was beaten up by Quakers!"

I got a huge laugh with his bit on the SCTV "Pet Peeves of the Stars" segment. He goes on at length about nasty post-mortem celebrity biographies and how someone's going to write a dirt-slinger on him, and concludes "Boy…just for that I'm never gonna die."

My favorite exchange, as Woody is telling Bob what a fan he is ("I must've seen 'Boy, Did I Get a Wrong Number' a hundred times!"):
Woody: I wonder if you've seen any of my movies?
Bob: Yeah, I saw 'Casino Royale', I thought that was really great.

There's a great 'couldn't do it today' reference of sorts in a cartoon with fellow Paramount star Popeye - he sees another sailor, a geeky little schnook, putting a gun to his head because "nobody likes me". Popeye tries to compliment him and says "Ya looks like Bob Hope!" The little guy looks horrified and puts a…

The problem is, by 1966, the actual Bond movies were into self-parody territory. In the "You Only Live Twice" opening a Hong Kong policeman says of Bond "At least he died on the job - he would have wanted it that way."

I got a kick out of it before I even saw it, thanks to a tv ad consisting of elegant scrolling white captions on a black background under a Queens-English announcer describing the movie as if it were a Merchant-Ivory production, and calling it "I Am Going to Get You Sucker".

Turkish taffy!

I'm glad to see others enjoy them. More and more I'm feeling like some kind of throwback, laughing at cartoons of two plug-ugly guys beating each other up.

Well, I bet I've single-handedly put a lot of people off 'Bob's Burgers', without their even seeing it, with my zealous raving.

"Sock it to ME?"

Umm, I saw a black guy in Mos Eisley. In 1977. Not digitally added or anything.

I swear, she didn't mean a THING to me.

Not to mention Blofeld gifting the world with germ warfare.

Indeed - hoping someone else would reference it.

Disgusting but delicious!

We never see the food in question, but a hunger trigger for me is in 'Community' where Troy and Abed approach the librarian they both want to date and discuss it with her in businesslike terms, while holding a briefcase containing tacos.

It's a policeman's dream!

I didn't see The Man With the X-Ray Eyes until way into adulthood (and was disappointed in the FX) but it had a tie-in comic book I read as a kid - toward the end he's ranting about seeing to the end of the universe and 'great darknesses coming to devour us all…bigger than galaxies' with accompanying picture - my tiny…

For all their groundbreaking brutal humor, I'm anxious to reread some of their less blunt but highly surreal work - I'm thinking of (nearly) everything written by Brian McConnachie, and a lengthy later story recounting bumpkin-personality Junior Samples' attempt to join Sinatra's Rat Pack. (At one point his…

I went into the Altman film really wanting to like it, but it killed it for me giving the two a legitimate reason to loathe the Schwabs, where the major reason they did in the magazine was Schwab Jr's large head. There's a great sidebar showing their hiring a paleontologist to index which dinosaurs had smaller heads…
