So...you're no longer marked and avoided? George

Actually, It's a bit of a let down. I had heard mention that it was Ronnie Raymond, which would have made Caitlyn's response to seeing him more believable. (Is it a spoiler to rule out someone who probably wasn't considered by most?) Where's the Spear of Destiny when you need it? George

Humbert Humbert Charles Swann Rodrigo Borgia G.H. Hardy George

No. This futuristic movie, released in 1984, refers to the Beijing Olympics in 2008. Beijing was, of course, the site of the 2008 Summer Games, but this wasn't decided until 2001. (Better than "Back to the Future"s prediction of a Cubs World Championship in 2015!) Not all of the predictions were as accurate, though, as references to PanAm, the Soviet Union, and even the Astrodome (as a site for baseball) were long gone by the time depicted in the movie. The Russian spaceship "Aleksei Leonov" was named after the first man to perform extra-vehicular activity in space. The ship became the model for Omega-class destroyers in the TV show Babylon 5. At the beginning of the film - where the sun was rising behind the radio telescope array - the sequence was actually filmed at sunset (facing west) and run in reverse. George

With Raf's comment on "What Character Said..." I'm going to guess Alan Rickman George

No. Just vague memories of the selection board. Like seeing it in a dream. George

My replies seem to be appearing out of order (before the post I'm replying to). Some general server problem, perhaps? George

I haven't seen any of the Harry Potter films, though I suspect that this is from one of them. Dumbledore? George

"Oliver!" (?) George

I know I've seen it (the American version). Just can't think of the title. George

Owen Wilson Meet the Parents Robert Deniro George

Interesting. WW just e-mailed me, mentioning that GS was down for a week. I observed the same thing as Human, but I was able to click links on the page, and they did open the regular forum pages. Still don't know the actress. George

Correct. This was actually my first guess when you gave the quote from "E.T." George

Andrew McCarthy Weekend at Bernie's Jonathan Silverman George

WW is up... George

Feel free to post one, WW. George

Probably could use a couple more roles... George

"But thi - see, this isn't real! A-a-and we don't really kill people! Well, we do, b-but n-not aliens, 'cause we haven't met any!" "He's about to say something." "Ehhhhhhhhhhh, what's up doc?" [long pause] "What?" "It's asking for coordinates on x-, y- and z-axes to locate a point in space relative to its terminal. How did you dream this?" "Look, I know I must look weird to you but how do you think you look to me? Listen, I watched four episodes of "Lassie" before I figured out why the little hairy kid never spoke. I mean, he rolled over, sure, he did that fine but, I don't think he deserved a series for that." "I've waited all my life to say this." "Be my guest." "We come in peace." George

I'm paid on the 20th, as well. See you then. :-) George

Just for completeness' sake, what was the meaning of this clue: One of the main characters in the movie version played a character in an unrelated movie, but that character's name was a play on the names of the main characters of this show. George

Correct. George

No, but to move this along C Thomas Howell Red Dawn Powers Boothe George

I just had a second thought. "Lost in Space"? George

My first thought was Mystery Science Theater 3000, but it ran more than three seasons, and the movie version was only a few years later, not more than 30 I have no second thought. George
