I suppose the person I read was thinking it must've been Kevin specifically because it seems like something Kevin would ask, and because of the expectation that the title of the film must be the entity's name.
The Avengers 5/14/12

I saw The Avengers at the tail end of one of the Marvel Movie Marathons across the country, an exhaustilirating (a word I just made up) event which saw each post-credits tease followed by new opening credits, each film easter-egged on in an inexorable march towards midnight.

Regardless of what happened on the field, the ideas depicted in this film have won out so overwhelmingly that Beane and his ilk have had to move on to new methods of evaluating talent because the ones depicted here have already become the new conventional wisdom.

The public skits, however, are usually the cleverest segments in the film; a staged little person bar fight stands head and shoulders above the rest and brings "The Twilight Zone" to mind.
True Grit 3/09/11

Here they have, for the second time, adapted their film from another film: 1969's John Wayne vehicle of the same name.

You know The Social Network is an exceptional film because it's impossible to pin down exactly which part of the production is doing the heavy lifting.
Despicable Me 8/12/10

The gags are incredibly dense in the film's first half, and many of them harken back to classic cartoons.
