Of course while Norton dipped out after just the one movie, making way for arguably the best iteration of Bruce Banner ever put on screen, it seems that there was another name in the early running to play the good doctor even before Norton and that was The X-Files star David Duchovny....

Oscars Sunday has come and gone. We saw a lot, from three excellent hosts, great performances, and Will Smith doing his best to re-enact How I Met Your Mother episodes with Chris Rock; there was something for everyone. Disney, however, may have done their own personal remake of The Big Short though and cost themselves an Oscar. Let’s clear the elephant in the room first and foremost.
