Paul Feig and Kevin Feige are not the same person.
The guy who directed episodes of The Office and Bridesmaids has nothing to do with Marvel Studios.
Jay, I have to vehemently disagree with you on the portrayal of The Hulk on Infinity Wars. Even a muscle bound beast deserves a little character development? Why do you have to take that away from him? Do you hate the cinema? There can be no other explanation for this.
I feel like the MPW crew could all benefit from a cathartic group viewing of the following classic clip from Seinfeld:
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – I really enjoy it when Andy takes things seriously and engages in the discussion. He has a lot to add and can be thought-provoking when on task. I also find his troll persona funny from time to time but it is often overly distracting.
Hi, Friends! I’m a long time supporter of HMP, but MPW is my new jam, and holy hell… can Andy just be in every single podcast ever? Please? I seriously love this guy! He’s something special, and he makes me smile.
Would Andy consent to being my co-host on Horror Corridor… if I keep podcasting, that is? He rules! Can we all just talk about Andy more? Or Josh? Or Dave? Jason rules, too, but he doesn’t e-mail back, so I just have to turn my back on his magical, lovable voice. JK.
I’ll try to be more active here. Much love, friends!
