Wild guess: MacBeth? George

The Breakfast Club Molly Ringwald Sixteen Candles George PS Have you seen Molly on "Riverdale"? She must have put on about 20 pounds for the part.

"What's My Line?" (?) Never mind. That's a question. George

It almost sounds like "Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me!"; but that's a radio show. George

The Professional Jean Reno Godzilla (1998) George

You are found. My next clues would have been Alfred Pennyworth and Simon Gruber. You're up! George

Gandhi is correct. George

Humbert Humbert Charles Swann Rodrigo Borgia G.H. Hardy Rene Gallimard F. Scott Fitzgerald Ed Phoerum George

"Forrest Gump"? George

It took me a second to recall who John Dunbar was. And you're right, you were wrong. 350 million Indians can't refer to America. George

I knew Robin in her pre-Corps days. Bright, and a real sweetheart. (Easy on the eyes, too.) I think I might have met Rico once or twice after they married. Man, that was long ago! George

Not enough, yet. George

It is, indeed. George

"In the end, you will walk out. Because 100,000 Englishmen simply cannot control 350 million Indians, if those Indians refuse to cooperate." George

Well, since former is an adjective, it would have to modify a noun, and the only one in the sequence is grad, so it's OK, I guess. (It would have had to have been formerly to modify marked and avoided.) Perhaps the addition of commas would have helped: "former, marked and avoided, 2nd Corps grad." Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled thread... George

Adrian Cronauer ("Good Morning Vietnam")? George

No, again. Let's make it easier. This sequel to a very famous 1968 film, 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. The director had all models and sets from the original film destroyed to prevent their reuse, thus the model of the spaceship Discovery had to be constructed from pictures. Keir Dullea and Douglas Rain are the only actors to reprise their roles from the original film. Helen Mirren's Character is Tanya Kirbuk, her last name is a backwards representation of "Kubrick". George

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.

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
