  1. "It's a Wonderful Life" God bless us, everyone! George
  2. I hope she does. C'mon Krys! You know this one! George3
  3. It definitely came out of the blue, though I knew immediately when he began talking of his past. It's just that his secret identity is completely different from any comic book version. George (couching response so as not to spoil for WW)
  4. This one was a movie I've never seen; but this line IS well-enough known to give it away. I believe that Samuel Jackson speaks it. George
  5. I'll just flip the cards. I always liked the bass line in this one. FREE POST George
  6. Both "Wall Street" and "Die Hard" have MAIN characters, but neither has a TITLE character. George
  7. Good to have you here, Krys. (Did my "plea" thread in Open induce you back?) Anyway... "Scarface" "I was born a poor, black child..." George
  8. It would, indeed. Upon a quick glance at your previous post, the father-daughter involvement made me think "Paper Moon," though it was obvious from the details you gave that it had to be a different movie. You're up again. George
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. Of course. Now I can put up the link: George
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. 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
  15. 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
  16. Night at the Museum Carla Gugino Sin City George
  17. 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
  18. Well, did it bless you? :lol: George
  19. Bonanza ran a LOT longer than 58 episodes. George

  22. Supergirl: My second-favorite DC character appears. (Though he's been here all along.) ;) George
