Thanks, Jessica, that's what I was trying to get my brain to cough up.
eta: I've done that (with my cat, not Ozzie). Ow indeed.
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'd argue that if you're using the creator's name, genre is explicitly not the point you're trying to convey.
I agree with Jessica here, in terms of movies.
In terms of books, though, it seems like most of the times when you use the author's name, like "I read three John Grishams," is when the author's books are kind of all the same. Except that I can think of a ton of exceptions. So I'm not really sure what the guideline is, but it seems to be different for books than for movies, and I've got no clue what it is for music.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I asked where the batsquirtgun came from - it was Superdickery.com, which I think has been linked to before....
But this is awesome: [link]

I'm gonna have to start reading Batman comics....
What, are you dense? Are you retarded or something? Who the hell do you think I am? I'm the goddamn Batman.

I find it hilarious that after the best efforts of the chef at my local tapas bar to introduce me to fine foreign cheeses, I'm utterly content to eat a cheapo port wine & cheddar spread that's one step up from Cheez Whiz. Sometimes crappy food tastes good.
