  1. And people who live next door to each other are called... George
  2. "Ferris Buehler's Day Off" I wouldn't have gotten it from that quote, except that it was used before... :) As I recall, I opposed your enlistment in Starfleet. It is possible that judgment was incorrect. George
  3. Let's play Wheel of Fortune: "Meatballs of F _ R _" George
  4. Change two letters in the last word, and you have it. George
  5. It was obviously memorable enough that WW and I could recite the whole dialogue. :) George
  6. You said I have a plethora of piñatas. Why would you say that, if you do not know what a plethora is? George
  7. Now troubles are many, they're as deep as a well. I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell. George
  8. Pretty much everyone except Spielberg had the runs. Food poisoning was suspected, since Spielberg was the only one eating his own food. Maybe he just didn't drink the water. Anyway, you're up. George
  9. "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" by Chicago(?) George
  10. Belushi's and Aykroyd's characters lived next-door to each other... George
  11. Really? And just what IS a plethora, Jefe? ;) George
  12. It wasn't clear. Let's just say, abdominal distress. George
  13. "Would you say I have a plethora of piñatas, Jefe?" George
  14. But he was in more than two. In this one (not "1941"), he plays a rather straight-laced man, and Aykroyd was a nut job. George
  15. I must admit to having seen few Bogey flicks. I think that this one is "Casablanca." George
  16. 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
  17. 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."
  18. Should I say it three times? :lol: George
  19. It's just as well. My next guess would have been "Some Like It Hot." :) George
  20. Similar humor, and around the same time, but different movie. Starred John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. George
  21. 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
