  1. Similar to the opening of Wooly Bully, but not it. George
  2. Burl Ives? George PS: I imagine there was at least a LITTLE gravitas to his WH Taft performance...
  3. This movie premiered at a length of 243 minutes. A week after the premiere, the film was reduced to 222 minutes, and edited further to 194 minutes for general release. The 194-minute version was the default broadcast television version for years; home video and cable television releases are of the full-length cut. This was originally intended to be two (consecutive) movies about the central character. Adjusted for inflation, this is one of the most expensive movies ever made. Its budget of $44 million is equivalent to over $400 million in 2021. The main character's navy required huge numbers of boats and ships. It was said at the time that Twentieth Century Fox had the world's third largest navy. George
  4. This current TV show is not on any network. In fact, you can't even use a streaming service until you first load the ap on your phone. The funding is completely crowd-sourced. Contributions are welcome, but not necessary. A movie featuring some of the characters had a limited distribution in theaters this past Christmas. The movie was about 30 minutes of plot/story and 60 minutes of musical numbers. The cast of characters is very familiar to most people on this website. A "period" show, it combines reasonable accuracy (except that all the actors speak English) but often uses 21st-century idioms, especially in lighter moments. A lot of the characters' backstories are embellished, as the source material is rather sparse in that regard. George
  5. Malachi Throne? (He's the chubbiest guy I can think of who played a Vulcan or Romulan.) George
  6. That's trivia with a capital T! George
  7. Not familiar with that one. He recorded a lot of good songs after AM&J, but none that received significant airplay (at least not in my neighborhoods). George
  8. Correct. It was Dion's only big hit after the early 60's. George
  9. All did play Lex Luthor. John Shea was in Lois and Clark (not bald). Rosenbaum was in Smallville (bald). Talbot was in an old movie; Howard was on the Superboy live series; Brown voiced Luthor in a number of cartoon series. George
  10. The Breakfast Club Anthony Michael Hall Sixteen Candles George
  11. One face instead of a thousand faces: Lon Chaney, Jr. Still don't get the yaks reference, but maybe this was a Wolfman movie? (The dog might have played the wolf...) George
  12. Didn't you love the things that they stood for? Didn't they try to find some good for you and me? And we'll be free Someday soon, it's gonna be one day. George
  13. Solitary Man by Neil Diamond. George
  14. Yaks bleat and supply wool. Not helpful (to me, anyway). George
  15. To be fair, most of his movies are not on my "must see" list, either. But, yes, Seth Rogen. George
  16. No. Actually a much more famous character. Lyle Talbot Gene Hackman Clancy Brown John Shea Sherman Howard Michael Rosenbaum George
  17. Big Bad Mama William Shatner Miss Congeniality George
  18. Time to make this a bit easier Donnie Darko You, Me, and Dupree Knocked Up Superbad Kung Fu Panda Step Brothers The 40 Year Old Virgin The Green Hornet Zack and Miri Make a Porno George
