"Men in Black 3 is not a good movie, BUT it has one of the all-time-great “cast another actor to play a younger version of another actor” where Josh Brolin plays a young Tommy Lee Jones. It’s… Uncanny how much they look like each other (and how much Brolin nails down Lee’s speech patterns and physicality). Again, not a good movie, but Brolin put in the work anyways."

"John C. McGinley and Dr. Cox"

"Rainn Wilson as Dwight Schrute"

"Bryan Cranston as Walter White.

The way the character developed and evolved fit him so well. That was all driven by his portrayal. You could never make a remake of it."

"Jack Black as Dewey Finn in School of Rock

He basically just played an irresponsible, less successful version of himself."
