@RousseMacabre, from Ravenclaw: Yeah, me too. Not only was it almost sacrilege to mess with a classic, that movie was responsible for unleashing the horror that was the Cat in the Hat movie on the world. Some things just can't be forgiven.
You know, the other day my friends and I were talking about Paul Rudd, and I realized that I have had a crush on him for FIFTEEN years. Since Clueless.
Um, I'm all about people discovering how great these actors of the past were, but shouldn't people see them in the roles and films that made them great? How the hell would digitally adding them into current movies be any kind of indicator as to who they were or why they were so great?
I didn't like when George Lucas did this kind of stuff to his own movies (which is why I cannot watch the "special editions" of the original Star Wars trilogy), but this new idea is way worse.
That settles it. One day, when I have my own talk show, I will make it my personal goal to whip people into such a frenzy that medics will be required.
@marciax3: I'm guessing the source of tension (sexual or otherwise)
would have eventually been their spy careers before they got
married, but the show just took too long to really get into that
and pull any drama out of it. We saw some new skills and some
ex-partners, but that's really it.
I'm with you on Hoyt, though. I didn't think I'd like him at first
but he grew on me quickly.
Hmm - I found that "Audition" sketch to be pretty terrible, and only moderately less so once Jon Hamm showed up in it. I thought the highlights were the return of Rihanna/Shy Ronnie and the Back to the Future screen tests. Most of those impressions were great, particularly Bill Hader's Alan Alda and Jay Pharoah's Eddie Murphy, and even Jon Hamm's Robin Williams was pretty good.
