    I think there isn’t a single Superman movie that does the Superman disguise well. It’s not just the glasses it’s the whole demeanor and his whole personality that is wildly different. I’ve yet to see it done right

    ‘The CIA doesn’t use Media as a cover’.  Isn’t that exactly what the CIA would say when they don’t want to admit they use something as a cover?  Also, what did they do during the American Embassy siege in Tehran?  They used Media as a cover.

    “Consciously changing voice… we had no success on that”
