You should all at least know OF actor BELA LUGOSI, who was in many films. He was typecast- but played more than one role. You should all at least know OF actor LON CHANEY JR, who was in many films. He was typecast- but played more than one role. I'll divide this into an "EASY" a "MEDIUM", and a "HARD" answer. EASY- Name at least ONE movie where both actors appeared. MEDIUM- Name at least ONE movie where both actors appeared- and name their ROLES in that movie (Who did they play?_ HARD- Name at least THREE movies where both actors appeared, and for bragging rights, who they played in them. (For the curious, I can name two for sure off the top of my head, as well as who they played in each, and I think I could manage a third.)

Before my time. I would not have imagined it would have gone that way, based on the impressions I have of the different presidents. Then again, you miss a lot when you're looking only through a lens of history rather than living through it, and I never made a particular study of this, so my impressions are bound to be brief and inaccurate in a lot of ways.

So, it's George's turn.

The lines seem vaguely familiar, but I'm not hearing anything yet.

Was it LBJ?

The second line was very recognizable if you saw Superman II. The Kryptonian bad guys were about to betray/kill Lex Luthor, when Superman arrived. Lex: "Superman, thank God....I mean, GET HIM!" The first quote was from Young Frankenstein, where GH played the blind hermit. The monster ran off. GH improv'ed this line as the monster ran off. The crew had to struggle with laughing and ruining the take. The third quote was "Popeye" Doyle's last line in The French Connection.

Let's see how famous these lines are. "Wait! Where are you going? I was gonna make espresso!" "Thank God!... I mean, GET HIM!!" "That son of a bitch is here. I saw him. I'm gonna get him."

HAS to be "Dennis the Menace" in the show of the same name.

For the curious, I inserted the explanations in this reply.

Yes. That's everybody who ever played The Shadow, whether on the radio like Orson Welles or in the movies like Alec Baldwin.

Victor Jory Kane Richmond Rod La Rocque Alec Baldwin Frank Readick Jr. Orson Welles James La Curto Bill Johnstone Bret Morrison John Archer Steven Courtleigh

That's it.

Among the actors in this movie....Steven Williams (Captain Fuller from 21 Jump Street), Steve Lawrence, Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman), Henry Gibson. Charles Napier (space hippie from ST TOS), Twiggy. This film needed to get certification from the FAA to confirm that one of their props was NOT airworthy. They had to confirm it wouldn't get picked up by the wind, and instead would drop like a stone. In one scene, the actors did their own stunt, and fell down a flight of stairs. It looks real because it is real. However, one actor, I'm sure, regretted it afterwards. He was injured and had to use a back brace for the rest of the filming. The director had a part for his mother in the film. Her moment onscreen was cut, so she never appeared in the film that was released. If you read the closing credits, she's actually listed as "woman on the cutting-room floor." There's a running gag about broken watches in the film. 3 different watches are said to have been broken in the dialogue. "They broke my watch." (Repeated line.) This movie became a box office hit because it was a hit overseas when it was released. It wasn't one in the US when it was released because many theaters in the South refused to air the movie. Among the extras for the next-to-last scene were 15 horses, and 3 Sherman tanks. Most people wouldn't remember them despite being on camera. If you still can't figure this one out, I'll 'See You Next Wednesday.' Roger Ebert's review of this movie contains the following sentences: "One crash in particular, a pileup involving maybe a dozen police cars, has to be seen to be believed: I've never seen stunt coordination like this before. What's a little startling about this movie is that all of this works." "There's even room, in the midst of the carnage and mayhem, for a surprising amount of grace, humor, and whimsy." Gene Siskel's review of this movie contains the following: "...displays more of the diversity of our metropolitan area than any other film shot here." "...Landis must be included in the ranks of important American directors. This movie was a gargantuan undertaking, and it would have been some achievement simply getting it finished." One of the most important characters in this film was never named. If you watch the film and read the credits, you might notice that they neglected to name more than one of the actors in the cast. You might not notice because you know who the actors were without waiting for the credits.

The second one MIGHT be something Tony Manero said. The first one MIGHT be from a movie with a name like "Midnight Cowboy" or "Electric Cowboy" or something like that. The third quote was a conversation between Jules and Vincent in "Pulp Fiction." IIRC, Jules reacted to this comment, and Vincent had traveled to Europe- Amsterdam, Paris, etc. So, that should make the the actor JOHN TRAVOLTA.
