George Orson Welles

Affectionately referred to as simply Orson Welles. A very influential American film director, writer, and actor who was also involved in theatre and radio. He is known for his infamous 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast and film, Citizen Kane (1941). Welles succumbed to obesity in his late years.

Oh, he was the voice actor for Unicron in the 1986 animation, "The Transformers: The Movie".

George Orson Welles wanted to play a god-like role before he died; he got to do the voice acting for Unicron -- enough said.

good point well made

Said to acknowledge someone else's explanation of something and thank them for it, with the added undertone of acknowledging that yeah now that you think about it, really that should have been obvious all along and you were being stupid for even asking the question in the first place.

An early (and possibly the first) appearance of the phrase, with this undertone, occurs in a joke in the 1992 episode "Holoship" of British sci-fi comedy TV series Red Dwarf, with the following exchange:

The Cat : Why don't we drop the defensive shields?

Kryten : A superlative suggestion, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, we don't have any defensive shields. And two, we don't have any defensive shields. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.

The Cat : Good point, well made.

Alice: Are you coming round to my house tonight?

Bob: No, I'm away on holiday. I told you yesterday.

Alice: Good point well made.
