  1. I must admit to having seen few Bogey flicks. I think that this one is "Casablanca." George
  2. People considered for the lead role in this blockbuster include Jeff Bridges, Nick Nolte, Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Tim Matheson, Nick Mancuso, Peter Coyote, Tom Selleck, and Jack Nicholson. Almost everyone involved during the shooting of the film got food poisoning, except the director, who ate Spaghetti-Os. George
  3. Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! George Until the movie came out, I hadn't realized that "Beetlejuice" is the pronunciation of the star Betelgeuse. I always thought it was something like "Baytelghice."
  4. Should I say it three times? :lol: George
  5. It's just as well. My next guess would have been "Some Like It Hot." :) George
  6. Similar humor, and around the same time, but different movie. Starred John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. George
  7. The "makeup" that they used for Ebsen was essentially aluminum powder in oil, which they sprayed on him. He inhaled it, causing severe lung damage. He was actually in an iron lung for some time, afterwards. The movie trade magazines simply reported "The role of the Tin Woodsman is now acted by Jack Haley>" No mention of nearly killing Ebsen. Apparently, makeup was a problem for the other actors, as well. Margaret Hamilton's (the Witch) makeup caught fire in the second take of the her disappearance in a ball of flame and smoke. George
  8. Now that you gave the title, it does seem VAGUELY familiar. George
  9. "Now, I'm just going to go under the covers and take a little inventory. Promise you won't go away." "You're really wonderful!" "That's what I've been trying to tell you. Is it so hard having your fantasies come to life?" "And that is where you saw her mammae." "Her mammal?" "Her honkers, Earl." "She dropped the towel." "Did she drop it, or did you psychically will it to fall?" "We're waiting, or do I have to pound it out of you?" "Don't ever speak to me like that in my own house!" "Why would I?" "You just did." "I didn't mean anything - it's just something a guy says." "I never say it." "I don't blame you." "Stay here on the outer limits of the dead end zone? Nothing personal, but life at the end of the road just ain't for Captain Vic and Empress Ramona. Sorry folks, but you can color us gone." "You should have slipped it through the mail slot while you had the chance, Earl." "Ramona and I haven't eaten all day. We could eat a baby's butt through a park bench." George
  10. Sorry. I haven't any idea. Unless Raf or some new lurker gets it, I suggest you give the answer and try another one. George
  11. I had to look it up, but, yes. (Actually, "set on fire" sounds intentional. One of the cast did catch fire.) George
  12. Executive Decision Steven Seagal Under Siege George
  13. The first actor cast in a lead role for this movie nearly died from lung damage due to the makeup he had to wear. (He got better, and later starred in two TV series.) The replacement actor got to wear different makeup, and suffered no ill effects. George
  14. Sounds like "Clue." Or the "Psych" homage to "Clue." :) George
  15. Randy Daytona is a camp counselor by day, ping-pong phenom by night. While prepping his rag-tag charges for a camp competition, he enters a ping-pong tournament to smoke out his father's murderer. Starring Bill Murray and Christopher Walken. George
  16. "Over the Top Chef"? I think they're ALL over the top... ;) George
  17. Indeed. You got both "STTMP" and "Serenity," so you're up. George
  18. Correct Also correct It is NOT "Peabody and Sherman" :) George I probably should say that the other movie brought back the show, but the first SEQUEL (and there have been several) actually reinvigorated the franchise. George
  19. Two movies. Both based on cancelled sci-fi shows. One reinvigorated the franchise, the other didn't (which is probably just as well, as that movie killed off two of the main characters). George
