Framed (Name That Flick from one Pic)
GeorgeStGeorge replied to Raf's topic in Movies, Music, Books, Art
That makes two of us. We'll need some more help, before this thread disappears... George -
It is, indeed. I always thought Carey reminded me of Dilbert, so I got a big kick out of Limbaugh's line. (In one of the few episodes I actually watched.) George

And he hits it out of the park. Reynolds had done so much comedy by that point that people had forgotten he was in Deliverance, so a crime drama wasn't that much of a turn for him. George

I remember Sudo mostly through his participation in the "game room," especially on the Nostalgia Thread, and a few personal messages. I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person, although Suda did grace my establishment at the Texas GS BBQ held here in 2008. (It was originally to be at Ex10's place, but they took damage from Hurricane Ike.) Rest in peace, brother. George

During the live episodes of this comedy, the cast members performed twice, once for the East coast and once for the West coast. This series shares a few plot devices with M*A*S*H. For example, the swamp rats have a still providing unending alcohol just as Buzz Beer does here. Also, Hawkeye is constantly trolling for women just as this show's main character does. The main female lead in both shows ends up married and divorced. The main male and female leads are in a brief romantic relationship with each other in both series and still have feelings for each other during their last appearances onscreen. Both Hawkeye and this show's main character feel trapped in their jobs and both are very conscientious and competent in doing those jobs. Rush Limbaugh appears, as himself, in an episode. At the end, he looks at the star and says, "Okay, Dilbert, let's rock!" A running gag at Winfred-Louder is Wick firing an employee named Johnson, but never the same person. Features a character named Oswald Lee Harvey. The star had corrective eye surgery, but continued to wear glasses in his TV role. The role of the corrosive coworker was supposed to be short-lived, but the actress was so popular in it the role became a regular. George

Does it help if I say The star was Burt Reynolds. When Clint Eastwood made the comedy Every Which Way but Loose (1978), this actor reportedly said to him, "Clint, you're getting into my territory [comedy], and if it's a success, I'm going out and make 'Dirty Harry Goes to Atlanta'!". When this movie went into production, Eastwood sent a telegram to the actor saying, "You really weren't kidding, were you?" This was Rachel Ward's first major motion picture. (She was not the star.) She was cast six days before shooting began. The director likened it to starting filming on "King Kong" without having the gorilla. The romantic sub-plot of this movie's storyline has been likened to that of the classic 'film noir' Laura (1944). The Orion Pictures studio acquired the film rights to William Diehl's source novel of the same name for a reported US $400,000 according to the 10th January 1979 edition of show-business trade paper Daily Variety. The picture often played on a double-bill, such as in second runs and at drive-ins, with Mickey Spillane's "I, the Jury" (1982), as both had 18+ classification certificates, and both were distributed by Warner Brothers in certain territories. Quotes from the star, who also directed: "Most directors cast actors on the basis of what they've seen before, and they don't want surprises; they want the actor to give another version of what he's already done. I try to do the opposite. I tell the actors, 'You've done that before, so let's go for something else.' On this picture I did with my actors what I always wanted other directors to do with me, which is to say, 'O.K., I have what I want, now you do what you want.' Sometimes magical things happen that way. I had lots of ideas, but I was open to any ideas the actors had. There really was a wonderful feeling of camaraderie" "In my picture the good guys win and the bad guys, the dopers, lose. That's important to me: I don't like dopers. I get mad as hell when I hear that studios are coddling actors who are always high on cocaine." George

You've just wasted a lot of possible clues for Movie Mash-up. George

That's pretty wild. I have seen it, of course, although it was quite a while ago. I had no idea the other guys were in it. George

Still no idea. George

Consider my breath bated. George

I'm still drawing a blank. I'm guessing WW is, too; maybe Raf? George

"My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it." "You know, a lot's changed since 1967." "No doubt, love, but as long as people are still having promiscuous sex with many anonymous partners without protection while at the same time experimenting with mind-expanding drugs in a consequence-free environment, I'll be sound as a pound!" "Scott, I want you to meet daddy's nemesis." "What? Are you feeding him? Why don't you just kill him?" "I have an even better idea. I'm going to place him in an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death." George

"Superman and Lois" premieres Feb. 23. Apparently, they have two sons. "Crisis" showed us one of them, so they're not twins. That's all I know. The Flash season premiere was supposed to lead into it, but they've added a "special interviews" show after S&L and moved Flash back to Mar.2. George

I know most of the actors. I just can't place the film. George

What are you reading/want to read in 2021?
GeorgeStGeorge replied to CafeCap's topic in Movies, Music, Books, Art
Honestly, except for comic books, the Bible, and occasional scientific articles, I don't read much. I did read Mark Levin's Men in Black recently. George -
Boys, boys, boys. Don't make me come over there. Human, I'm pretty sure that WW was saying that he believed you guessed the right song and then looked up the title, which was fine. It was you who suggested that that might be cheating. FWIW, I don't think I've ever HEARD of "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite." Was it just an album cut, or did it actually get airplay? (If it didn't get airplay, then WW technically cheated.) George
