Having ruled out Frozen, it appears we need another clue. George

I haven't seen any of them, though the line DOES seem familiar. Probably because, as you've said, it was used here before. :) George

UPDATE WITH NEWER ADDITIONS "...MASH UP" (TV or Movie): In these threads, ANY clues to the show or movie are acceptable. Trivia, a list of actors, etc., even quotes (though these are better in the "Name That..." threads). BEFORE AND AFTER: Like the "Before and After" puzzles in "Wheel of Fortune," two shows (movies, TV shows, or one of each), for which the title of one ends with the same word or words as the other one begins, are combined, and a made-up "plot synopsis" is given. For example: Archie Bunker's orphaned nieces and nephew move in with him and his butler. "All in the Family" plus "Family Affair" equals "All in the Family Affair." Although not required, it has become customary to indicate whether the portmanteau is a movie (combines two movies), a TV show two TV shows), or a TV-movie (one of each). Ideally, the clue is given in title order, that is, the first part of the clue describes the first show and the second part describes the second; however, in the interest of making a sensible clue, it may be necessary to reverse the order. Lastly, "triples" (three shows linked A-B-B-C-C-D) or higher "multiples" can be given. Just mention that in the clue. SONGS BEFORE AND AFTER THE TITLE: For a song whose title is in the lyrics (and this is most songs), give the line or lines preceding and following the title, indicating where the title would be with ellipsis (...) or [TITLE]. Example: Still like that [TITLE]; that kind of music just soothes my soul. (Answer "Old Time Rock and Roll" by Bob Seger.) If the title isn't in the lyrics, don't use that song! :) NAME THAT ACTOR/ACTRESS (OR ROLE): Either give a number of roles that an actress or actor has played (movies or TV -- live theater is probably out of the knowledge of most people), where the correct answer is that performer's name; or list a number of performers who have played a particular role, e.g., Sherlock Holmes. (Obviously, you want a character which has been around long enough for several performers to have portrayed it. "Spock" essentially limits you to two, unless you add the guys who played younger Spock in Star Trek III.) In this thread, you might want to start with more obscure actors or roles and then add easier ones, the longer the puzzle goes unanswered. George

Except for some of the games in which players have lost interest ("Pictionary" threads, "Name that Star Trek Episode," etc.) ALL of the threads are in play. If you guess all of the current clues, you can be the "puzzler" in all of them at once! And, if you'd like to resuscitate a thread that hasn't been active for a while, have at it. I always enjoyed the Pictionary threads, but none of these games work well as solitaire! :) George

I've liked "Supergirl" from day 1, and it's only gotten better. The various characters are believable (in a comic-book-suspension-of-disbelief way). There is a good mix of punching stuff and interpersonal drama, without getting soap-opera-y. The divergences from "DC canon" are reasonable and, occasionally, pleasantly surprising. George

Dustin Hoffman Tootsie Teri Garr George

Sean Astin Rudy Ned Beatty George

No. This was an American character. George

As you may note, those of us who play, pretty much play them all. Now, if it's your turn in this thread, that doesn't give you a free marker to jump on another thread. You still have to wait your turn, there. If you feel you don't have a good clue, you can declare a FREE POST, and anyone can jump in. It's okay to think a little before giving a clue, though. You don't have to do so immediately. George

And it may, yet again... :) George

Yes. (In pretty much every version.) George

"It's a Wonderful Life" God bless us, everyone! George

I do believe Krys is up. :) George

I hope she does. C'mon Krys! You know this one! George3

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)

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

I'll just flip the cards. I always liked the bass line in this one. FREE POST George

Both "Wall Street" and "Die Hard" have MAIN characters, but neither has a TITLE character. George

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

"The Rifleman"? George

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

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

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

Of course. Now I can put up the link: George

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.
