  1. Khan said something very similar in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," mentioning that it was a Klingon proverb. I'm suspect that your exact quote is from a different movie, though. George
  2. Star Trek: First Contact Robert Picardo Amazon Women on the Moon George
  3. I'll let you have it. It has nothing to do with R&M, though. The Golddiggers were a troupe of FINE women, originally featured on the Dean Martin Show. I was hitting puberty around that time, so I remember them well. George
  4. Corie Bratter Bree Daniels Iris Caine Jane Harper George
  5. Same character, same scene (I think): "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down." George
  6. Good guess, but no. I'll modify one of the clues, to make it a bit easier. If that doesn't work, I can make it a LOT easier. As was usually the case, back in the day, variety series usually went on hiatus for the summer, to be replaced by another series. One of the top variety shows at the time featured an ensemble of women who were spun off in their own summer series. The "[1] Show," then, was replaced by "[1] Presents [2]." The latter show was the highest-rated replacement show of the year (1968), so it was back for another season, in 1969. In 1970, the venue moved, so the (summer replacement) show was called "[1] Presents [2] in London." As well as appearing in the US in its usual, hourly, format, it was shown in England in half-hour installments. In 1971, the ensemble was spun off into their own, weekly, syndicated series, "Chevrolet Presents [2]," which lasted two seasons. The group [2] got its name from a number of Busby Berkeley films of the 1930's. The name usually implies women who marry men for money. I'm more interested in [2], but I suspect that if you know , you'll know [1], as well. George
  7. I just found out that there is a new Justice League cartoon show, currently running. "Justice League Action" runs Saturday mornings on the Cartoon Network. Unfortunately, it's a 15-minute show, so it doesn't show up in my DVR guide. I tried taping the shows before and after, but that didn't work. I think I can set my DVR to record a particular time slot, rather than a specific show. Alternatively, I might actually use my VCR, which still works. I notice that at least one episode has been "unlocked" on the Cartoon Network website, for public viewing. Additionally, a third season of "Young Justice" is scheduled to start soon (in February, I think), though it might only be available on Netflix. George
  8. It helps to have a big movie-producer brother. Clint always got roles in Ron's movies. I shall post a new one, soon. George

  10. I think I've got a copy lying around, somewhere. Maybe I should auction it off! George
  11. Everything seems to be in the correct order, now, so I'll re-post: There's another problem, though: for some reason the letter B in brackets doesn't appear. Let's change A and B to 1 and 2: As was usually the case, back in the day, variety series usually went on hiatus for the summer, to be replaced by another series. One of the top variety shows at the time featured an ensemble of women who were spun off in their own summer series. The "[1] Show," then, was replaced by "[1] Presents [2]."

  12. Not the Truman Show. "What is this place?" "Looks like a diner." "That's clever. You know, you almost had me going there for a while. I was a bit groggy before, then I started noticing things. Like, you got a stockbroker over here, all dressed up reading the Financial Times on a Sunday morning when the market's closed. Unlikely, but okay, I can go with that. I can even go with the stick-up man packing a cop-issue Beretta. But you want to know where you blew it? [points at waitress] With her. My aunt was in the restaurant business all her life. There's no way in hell a career waitress comes to work in high heels. She'd have blisters the size of pancakes before lunch. And if she ain't real, then this whole thing ain't real. That's how I knew this bozo over here wouldn't get a shot off even if we waited till St. Patrick's Day. Because there's nothing but blanks in these guns. Oh, and no offense, but their performances were terrible." "First you set me up in the bar. Then you shoot me in the back." "My boss does it to me. I did it to you. It's a vicious circle." "I've been undercover here for two years." "Two years? What was your plan? To let them die of old age?" George
  13. All my posts seem to out of order. I wouldn't be surprised if even this (quoting WW's post) shows up ahead of his. George
  14. Hopefully, this will appear after WW's post. I'm not sure how it got before his. George

  16. It's from the Blues Brothers, but I don't know if it's Jake or Elwood. I'll go with Jake (Belushi). George
  17. God, no. I'm flipping over all the cards. "Fight Club." FREE POST George
  18. I think that in the Batman/Green Hornet crossover, Bruce Wayne and Britt Reid are mentioned as childhood friends. I'll come up with one, soon. Has anyone seen Raf? George
  19. So far, so good. (And you couldn't name "Cleopatra"? That's not this film, though.) George
