Yahoo Serious is sort of one of my heroes

Most people don't even know who Yahoo Serious is.

He's the writer, director, producer, star of Young Einstein, which was kind of a goofy/zanny movie made back in 1988.

I guess the thing that I thought I appreciate about him was whenever I finished watching the film, and I saw all the credits role, it was probably the 1st time I realized that one person could have a hand in every aspect of a film and the outcome was a fun sincere movie that didn't completely suck.

I can see where other people might have this realization in other ways, but for me, it was when the credits rolled and I kept seeing Yahoo Serious' name over and over—he did everything.

It gave me a new appreciation of his film and of film as artist medium.

If I ever got the chance to meet Yahoo Serious, I would thank him for that.
