I hadn’t thought of this, but now that you prompt it—I’m not sure I wouldn’t want 6 hours straight of Seinfeld music. I think it might be fun. What’s wrong with it?

Just finished my biweekly (jk) watch of the Marx Bros.’ *Duck Soup*, struck this time by Louis Calhern’s absolute commitment to his role (viz. his utterance of the thankless line “Twelve dollars??” less than 10 minutes in

I love his appearance in *The Amazing Spider-Man* #24 (“Spider-Man Goes Mad”) from 1965 bc he wears a disguise, but not the wild costume. It’s a great yarn, as my mother said (it’s not really a spoiler if it’s 60 yrs old, right?)
