  1. Sometimes, I hit the Back button instead of Add Reply, so I think I've responded, only to find out that, no, I haven't. :wacko: George
  2. Interesting choice, because, as Raf points out... Superman 3 had Robert Vaughn as the bad guy. The only Superman movie since 1970 which didn't have Luthor or Zod in it. Correct. :) George
  3. Of course. Now I can put up the link: George
  4. In this movie, a father and daughter portray a man and a girl who may be his daughter. He was not nominated for an Academy Award, but she won the Best Supporting Actress award, beating out one of her co-stars. He and she were both nominated for Best Actor/Actress (Musical/Comedy) Golden Globes, though neither won. She did win an award for Most Promising newcomer. She was (and is) the youngest person ever to win an Academy Award. And, at 1 hour, 6 minutes, and 58 seconds, her performance in this movie is the longest to ever win an Academy Award in a supporting acting category. A single actor portrayed both the bootlegger and his brother the Sheriff; he had just a few weeks in the shooting schedule to lose the weight for the Sheriff role that he had deliberately put on in a short period of time prior to shooting the bootlegger's scenes. George
  5. There aren't a lot of others who have played this role. Perhaps I should point out that they were featured in movies starring Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton... George
  6. Every time I see her she don't even look my way, Maybe she will notice me, but then what would I say? I would say what's on my mind, But the words are hard to find, But I'm gonna try to tell her anyway. Don't you know that [TITLE], Everything about her drives me wild, Don't you know that [TITLE], Everything about her drives me wild, Don't you know that she's fine, so fine. George
  7. Of the four stars of this show, only two participated in all 58 episodes. One was written out of an episode so he could attend his sister's wedding in England; The other was written out of three episodes: one while he recovered from a tonsillectomy, one when his son Jonathan was born, and one to make a family trip home to Texas. After the first season ended, one of the stars disappeared from the public eye for several weeks, while a series of morbid rumors about his health made the rounds. The truth was that he had received a draft notice, and subsequently fasted for three weeks in order to fail the physical. It worked. The show was filmed on the Columbia Pictures lot, and many of the sets and props used were left over from the studio's series of shorts with The Three Stooges. Aired from 12 September 1966 to 9 September 1968 on NBC for 58 episodes. It ruled its NBC primetime slot (Mondays 7:30) for the entire duration of its run. CBS carried repeats of the series on its Saturday Morning schedule between 13 September 1969 and 2 September 1972; after which, it was seen for a season on the ABC Saturday Morning schedule from 9 September 1972 to 1 September 1973. The Christmas show for 1967 had all four stars singing the Spanish carol "Riu, Chiu," a capella. I'd post a link, but unfortunately, I can't find one that isn't a video. Of course, this clue should be enough for someone to get it, anyway. This show is often considered a forerunner of MTV, as each episode ended with a music video. George
  8. Night at the Museum Carla Gugino Sin City George
  9. I don't think it was the greatness of the research emanating (or, rather, being copied and redistributed) from New Knoxville. For me, it was the logic of the fundamentalist approach as described (by Bullinger and then distributed) by VPW. The keys to research made sense to me, and the proclamation that, if TWI teaching was found to be inaccurate, it would be changed. There was even a minor change in the teaching about "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani" to demonstrate TWI's dedication to research. Of course, when anyone used the keys to show that some TWI doctrine was bunk, he was castigated as unknowledgeable, compared to the Great Vic. I was on the receiving end of THAT discussion, a number of times, before I was finally cast out into the light. George
  10. Well, did it bless you? :lol: George
  11. Bonanza ran a LOT longer than 58 episodes. George

  14. Supergirl: My second-favorite DC character appears. (Though he's been here all along.) ;) George
  15. All right. Fine. Predatora! Tora! Tora! FREE POST George
  16. "The Music Man" "Oh. Oh, gee. Aw, gee. Gee, Mr. Luthor. Oh, I see. I guess my arm wasn't long enough, see?" "Otis, would you like to see a long arm? Otis, would you like to see a very, very long arm?" George
  17. My brain can only hold a few petabytes of information. Some things just don't make the cut. :) And WW is up. George
  18. My G-G-G-G-G-Generation :) The Who Don't you know that [TITLE] Everything about her drives me wild. George
  19. I saw Amistad, though I only remember Anthony Hopkins as John Quincy Adams. "Give us, us free," certainly SOUNDS like something that the mutinous slaves would have said, but I don't remember ANY lines from the film. George
  20. I did like the scene where all the heroes stood together after beating Savage. It just had a nice, comic-book feel. It reminds of a similar scene in "Smallville." The best example, so far, though, was in the first Avengers movie, when all the Avengers were standing briefly together in a circle, facing outward, before heading off to fight their individual battles. What did Malcolm say when he scooped up the Savage-dust? I couldn't make it out. What's he up to? George
  21. I'm sure one of you guys can Do it! Do it! Do, it! George
  22. "Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits When I'm working, yes, I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you And when the money comes in for the work I do I'll pass almost every penny on to you George
  23. I suspect that, since Raf included her in his last list, that the love interest was Kim Basinger (Vicki Vale) and the villain was Danny DeVito (Penguin). George
