Yeah, I know he's not everyone's favorite but I was shocked to read old El get a mention in the Richard Corliss review of "Happy Feet Two":

Pretty wild to see that his popularity must be growing! Here's the link to the full review:

While I'm glad that a reviewer such as Mr. Corliss knows who El Brendel is I suspect that 99% of the people who read the review will be shaking their head and saying "What's an El Brendel?"
