We have? (laugh)

Not incensed, no; that implies that "Clonus" is something worth getting incensed *about*.

I was just "bemused" at the typical Hollywood-eating-itself mindset, until I
read that the writers of "The Island" were claiming that it was their
original story.  At that point I traded in for an upgrade and became
"annoyed".

I mean, that's just rude.

Same principle here: Every time I hear some naive idiot, thirteen years later, STILL write six pages about how "The Lion King" was "really Hamlet", and imagine Jeffrey Katzenberg laughing somewhere and sipping champagne on Tezuka's grave, I just want to beat up on "Island" some more...
