I saw Captain America 2 in 3D because my friend foolishly told me we were seeing a 2D showing, and I foolishly didn't double-check.

What's weird about the "Hefflelumps and Woozles" song is that, while it might feel like a psychedelic late-60s thing, it's pretty much a straight lift of the "Pink Elephants" song from Dumbo which came out in 1941.

Ah. That makes sense!

Sounds good. Thanks for the recommendation!

Stagecoach is so much fun. It would be nearly impossible to gather a better collection of character actors than that movie.

Better Off Ted? 26 episodes, 2009-2010.

I've seen a lot of comments along the lines of "FOX hates American Dad," but isn't letting it run for nine years pretty solid treatment? I'm not a fan of the show, so I don't know the specifics of what people mean (no promotion, maybe pre-empted for football?). Can you provide some insight?

But what about The Producers and/or Silent Movie? Have you seen those?!

No, I get it. It's such a sweet, innocent version of that character.

A put-upon everyman named Larry and his eccentric cousin?! Sounds like Perfect Strangers movie I've always dreamed about.

By the time the final entry in the trilogy comes out, your kids will be 5 1/2 years older than they are now!

IT'S OKAY, THEY'RE JUST STEP-SIBLINGS.

Serious question - do all siblings on this show have sex (or at least sexual tension) with each other? Because this isn't the same guy who raped his sister on that other episode, right?

He looks like a seedier Nicholas Brendon to me. Dark Xander.

The flaws are there in the first one, but they're definitely amplified in the second.

All right, man. You win. I'll just stick with my other two examples and we can agree I never said that one.

He's famous in the UK. And he's certainly as famous as Gabourey Sidebe, one of your two examples.

He's a well-known character actor who is legitimately enormous and has played a wide variety of dramatic and comedic roles. (Oh, that reminds me - Richard Griffiths is another one!) I'm sure you've seen him in something.

James Gandolfini, Ian McNiece, John Goodman.
