  1. You could say it was his brightest hour... George
  2. Gary Oldman JUST WON the Best Actor Oscar for this role... George
  3. Hey kids shake it loose together The spotlight's hittin' something that's been known to change the weather We'll kill the fatted calf tonight so stick around You're gonna hear electric music solid walls of sound George
  4. Thanks for the hint. Cavemen = troglodytes = Troggs Obviously not "Wild Thing," so it must be "Love Is All Around" George
  5. WW is up. (And in TV Mash up, as well) George
  6. I didn't think of this movie as a "coming of age" story, although most of the characters are young adults. Apparently, the producer and director saw it that way, however, and required the cast to watch a John Hughes marathon, in preparation for their roles. The main villain of the film has played villainous roles before (to some acclaim); but he is probably better remembered for portraying an iconic hero. In the comics, the hero spends a lot of time in introspection. Since thought balloons don't work in movies, and it would seem creepy for the character to talk to himself, he was given a handheld computer to take the place of half of his inner dialogue. CGI made the main character much more like the comic-book version of him in this movie than in previous movies. The star was 19 when cast, younger than the "old men" (25 and 26) who had the role, previously. George
  7. One of the other actors received an Oscar for the role. John Lithgow Louie Anderson Albert Finney Christian Slater Timothy Spall Robert Hardy Brendan Gleeson Gary Oldman Richard Burton Bob Hoskins Brian Cox Michael Gambon Gary Saderup Simon Ward George
  8. By the way, the pilot for Krypton is on tonight. A preview on SyFy showed that Brainiac will be the main villain, with a time-travelling Adam Strange helping Sig-el. Other spacefaring species will be seen, like the Thanagarians. I wonder if they'll ever throw in a Green Lantern, Tomar-re, perhaps? George
  9. Unlawful Entry Kurt Russell Guardians of the Galaxy II George
  10. I can almost "hear" it, too, but just not enough to place it. George
  11. I assumed you gave it to me as being the closest. Assuming I may continue, I didn't think of this movie as a "coming of age" story, although most of the characters are young adults.

  14. You can never truly be over a time traveler. George
  15. Hopefully, this will give it away: Jon Gries William Atherton Gabriel Jarret Michelle Meyrink Robert Prescott Patti D'Arbanville Val Kilmer George
  16. Die Another Day Halle Berry Swordfish George
  17. Interesting choice, but, no. More recent. Your logic is otherwise correct, however. George
  18. I suspect that we've all stretched the rules, once or twice. I didn't think of this movie as a "coming of age" story, although most of the characters are young adults. Apparently, the producer and director saw it that way, however, and required the cast to watch a John Hughes marathon, in preparation for their roles. The main villain of the film has played villainous roles before (to some acclaim); but he is probably better remembered for portraying an iconic hero. George
  19. Jon Gries William Atherton Gabriel Jarret Michelle Meyrink Robert Prescott George
  20. Actors in the movie. Obviously, I didn't start with the EASY ones... George
  21. Jon Gries William Atherton Gabriel Jarret George
  22. Sandra Bullock is the actress. The first movie is "Miss Congeniality." The last movie is "Demolition Man." I can name a number of other movies she's been in, but I can't match them to the dialogue. George
