Meaning they asked his permission before his depiction in the Ultimates?

Ultimate Nick Fury slowly morphed into SLJ. He was actually white in his first appearance.

Yeah, if I remember correctly they licensed his appearance for Ultimates and he jokingly said something like "okay, but if there's a movie, I gotta play him!" and everybody laughed because it was 2002 and Marvel was so bad with money they probably had controlling shares in the MiniDisc format.

Rock-a-Doodle is always a good suggestion. That movie is too hilariously weird for it not to be a great episode. There's a part of me that thinks that movie has some decent elements, like the art direction and setting, but geez that movie is a fever dream.

As for the Love Guru I recall Andrew saying that it's a godawful film which makes me wonder if it's so bad that it won't be an episode. I saw a bit of it and it was so bad I couldn't even make fun of it if I tried.

You can tell Rock-A-Doodle is the unfinished demo reel of an animated movie that might have been decent, but as is, is just confusing.

Meyers also has a really lovely record when working on projects he actually cares about. He was sued multiple times by studios for bailing on projects. I doubt anyone is really willing to throw money at him. Which is a shame because I think there is an alternate universe where he grew into being a pretty fun director.

Just listening to their If Looks Could Kill episode, and I am not here for any Linda Hunt dissing. I can understand the intellectual reasons behind thinking her being cast as Billy Kwan was problematic, but claiming that it was only a couple of notches above Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's? Yeah, no, it wasn't that bad.

I don't understand why they had to create a character for Myers to play in that show? He's a known name, he's a funny dude, just let him be him.

It was his idea, he didn't want people watching just to see him. I'm sure the network would much rather have it be called Mike Meyers' Gong Show

It is enjoyable if I have never seen a single episode of T.J. Hooker?

Like, I know Shatner's in it, and they're cops, and they do that hood slide thing on the cars...and that's literally all I know about the show.

It's definitely better if you've seen TJ Hooker.
