One of the major stars of this film was notoriously lazy. He suggested that the cameras roll during rehearsals, because they "might get lucky" (meaning he wouldn't have to repeat a performance). He was also bad about memorizing lines. He delivers a key speech written on a baby's diaper. The actual star of the film was a relative unknown at the time and was actually third-billed in the credits and most promotional material. The first-billed star wanted so much money for the sequel that all his scenes in it were cut. (The movie and its sequel were filmed at the same time.) When the third-billed star asked the second-billed what his motivation was, he replied, "You mean besides the $2 million?" Initially, one star refused to cut off his mustache to play his character. In early one-sheets of the movie, his face is featured with a mustache. Before the director and the star met face-to-face, the director proposed to the star that if he would cut his mustache, the director would cut his too, and the star agreed. It turned out later that the director did not have a mustache at all. He wore a false moustache that he peeled off at the last moment. The star thought it a great joke. George

It was a clear night in Houston, so the eclipse was easy to see. I have to admit, though, I was unimpressed. It seemed no larger or colorful than any of the other total lunar eclipses I've seen. Maybe the next one will be better. Mid-November, I think. George

Ah. I watched every episode of Pinky and the Brain, but very few Animaniacs. George -

I must admit that I have never seen this movie, so I don't know what lines are iconic. When the movie came out, all my friends said, "It really makes you think," which is the LAST thing I want to do when I watch a movie. (Well, except for maybe figuring out a whodunnit.) "I ain't no white trash piece of sh-t. I'm better than you all! I can out-learn you. I can out-read you. I can out-think you. And I can out-philosophize you. And I'm gonna outlast you. You think a couple whacks to my guts is gonna get me down? It's gonna take a hell of a lot more than that, Counselor, to prove you're better than me!" "It's not necessary to lay a foul tongue on me my friend. I could get upset. Things could get out of hand. Then in self defense, I could do something to you that you would not like, right here." "Are you my friend? Are you my friend?" "No I'm not your friend." "Well, see, I like to plan my comings and goings with friends, so if you're planning my comings and goings I'd call that presumptuous, in fact I'd call it downright rude." George

I'm not sure who "Dot" is, but you're right about the singer. This was her biggest hit of the 70s, even above "Half Breed." George -

The oral sex clue pretty much eliminates any show prior to about 2000. Even implied, that would probably not have gotten past the censors. Unless it was on premium cable (e.g., HBO). No real idea, yet. George
