Including 2001 doesn't really seem fair.
They did say nice things about it.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
We rented Kinky Boots last night, and I have to say, I was really impressed with Chiwetel Ejiofor. I've only ever seen him as a bad guy, so I was dubious about his ability to play a sympathetic character, but he was great.
Plus he looks killer in a dress.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
He just won an Olivier award, which is a huge deal for UK actors. He's a really, really good actor.

He's a really, really good actor.
I was impressed with the way he was so completely at ease, physically, when he was dressed as a woman, but totally awkward and uncomfortable, physically, when he was dressed as a man.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I have to agree. "Wildly inaccurate predictions of the future," maybe. But if 2001 belongs because it got 30 years in the future wrong, Minority Report also belongs there.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think including 2001 was a joke.

OK. I could go along with that.

I really enjoyed Kinky Boots as well. Chiwetel was amazing. And strikes me as a sane guy, despite his great talent.
He and Jeffery Wright really impress me in that way.

Surely you're not lending credence to a correlation between insanity and talent?

Sometimes, yeah.
Dali, Van Gogh, Terrence Howard.
Sometimes the very pretty cracker just can't seem to hold onto the cheese.
