Oh! I Always Get Those Two Mixed Up!

Visual mix-up:

Lately, when I see a tabloid at the supermarket with Rob Pattinson on the cover, I mistake him for Pete Doherty and wonder what the fuck he's doing on a magazine.

It's kinda unfair to say this but Jesse Eisenberg has become the guy you call when Michael Cera's busy.

or that other guy i always think jesse eisenberg isn't
is there a guy on SNL that could be a physical eisenberg? was in hot rod?

You may be thinking of Andy Samberg.

I think on second thought that what I just said is prolly no longer true post-Social Network

The Bergs, Zuck-, Eisen- and Sam-:

Joyce Carol Oates / Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Lee Marvin and James Coburn.

^these are the same guy.

Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton.

FCS and FBS. I can't ever remember which one is for BCS teams and which one is for the former D-1AA football teams.

Karen Allen, Margot Kidder

haha yes

Richard Ford
Richard Powers
Richard Price
Richard Russo

Ha, that's great. I would add:
Richard Yates

I guess I don't think of Yates in that cluster because he's from an earlier era.

New one:

Matt Bai
Matt Taibbi

lee marvin/james coburn otm.

and total cosign on this:

The existence of Milton Friedman may be what makes me mix up the composers Milton Babbitt and Morton Feldman.

just had the timely realisation that there is no distinction in my head between The Black Crowes and Counting Crows.

Richard Lloyd
Richard Hell

Yeah, that's a good one because they both appeared in the same story at different points, like a Dick Sargent/Dick York mix-up.

If you are of a certain age you might also add to the confusion with
After The Fire

Laura Ingalls Wilder / Louisa May Alcott

Sheldon Leonard/Sidney Sheldon

kim gordon / kim deal

Used to mix up Kim Fowley and Kim Wilde for some reason.

Kim Thayil has managed to stay above the fray.

Keith Urban
Keith Sweat

Marti Caine
Marti Webb

Marty Feldman
Morton Feldman

Tony James
Brian James

Know perfectly well who they are but still sometimes mix up
Jonathan Rosenbaum/Jonathan Schwartz

James Brooks (Broadcast News, The Mary Tyler Moore Show), James Bridges (The Paper Chase, The China Syndrome).

Oh yeah.

James Brooks / Albert Brooks

If I only catch very brief glimpses of them in a preview or trailer, I always get Rob Corddry and Paul Scheer mixed up.

In spite of the recent palaver, I still confuse Robert Maxwell with Rupert Murdoch.

single twin, twin sister, twin shadow

rong thread j1m

Paul Scheer's a different height, different head shape and always distinguishable by his gappy grin, but I'm still not entirely certain Corddry and David Koechner are separate people.
