He sounds and acts like him. What else could it be?

Something more specific and, therefore, interesting. Oh well.

Okay, what I really meant is his films are like Allen's and he has the same level of comedic genius.

Tell me though, what other options were there to expect?

In what way?
His Illinois accent is quite distinct from Allen's New York one.
He speaks a lot slower than Allen.
His subject matter is a lot different and he doesn't focus on personal neuroses.
I'm really struggling to see what you mean.

I only chipped in because you'd been so snippy with Ranconteur when he asked for clarification. Just wanted to set it out clearly that he is not the only one who who is confused by this particular comparison.
