It's what I meant.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

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

Well, I was trying to get something more refined than Strange Brew as an example, but the thing that really doesn't work in the reference is that it was first done for TV and wasn't some new idea for the film.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What about the phone booth movie? Um, probably called Phone Booth. Colin Farrell on the phone. But maybe he does show up in person, too.
And the villain in that one movie with Denzel Washington and John Goodman never appears as "himself," but that's because he's only corporeal in other creatures. Or something. Does that work?
I don't think I'm really any help.

The voice is Keifer. But I can't remember if we see him.

Oh yeah, I meant we see Colin Farrell on the phone and hear the other guy who may or may not show up.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think you see Keifer very briefly at the end.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Fallen. I haven't seen it.
Same situation with the first Saw movie.
Ooh, yeah.

Because books.
If we were talking TV, Norm's wife Vera would work [Cheers]. Or Wilson, from Home Improvement.
Ooh, what about God in The Ten Commandments?
