There is pretty much no one better or more knowledgable of movies and TV than our movie and culture contributing editor Brian. He can spout out endless quotes from some of the most popular movies and tv shows of all time. If you love all things CLUE and agree that Airplane II is much better than the original Airline, well, Brian is your guy. A true quoting genius!
