Here's the answers.

There is a show called "Hell's KITCHEN." It has nothing to do with HOTELS. So, you did not name #1. There is a show named "Kitchen Nightmares." It's the show I described in #2, and you guessed it correctly. So, your turn!

Another handful of semi-obscure shows. Name one to take the round. 1. This show has hot-tempered British chef Gordon Ramsay visiting hotels to try to fix them up. He seems to react to them as if he's suffering the tortures of a veritable Dante's Inferno when they're truly awful. 2. This show has hot-tempered British chef Gordon Ramsay visiting restaurants to try to fix them up and turn them around, so that their cooking areas are more like pleasant dreams and less like something else. 3. This great show (well, I like it) has a bunch of mobile kitchens competing in a city simultaneously, speeding from city to city, with the one making the least money eliminated until one winner is left. 4. This show has 2 mobile kitchens compete head-to-head in a city. 5. This show has 2 expert cooks (Aron Sanchez and Chris Cosentino) visit a town, and compete head-to-head in a series of challenges against another pair of cooks, usually locals from that town, in a race. 6. This show had a bunch of chefs travel from city to city across the globe, preparing local dishes in each area and competing as teams or as individuals, with one going home each episode until the last 2 went head-to-head to determine a winner. Despite its name, there were NOT 80 different stops and food challenges, it was a mini-series instead.

Ok, let me try this. Skipping "Underworld" because Michael Corvin isn't the only vampire hybrid out there..... "Twilight: Breaking Dawn of the Planet of the Apes." (Was there a "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes"?) I'm thinking "Part 1" is inconsequential for individual rounds.

This seriously isn't a quote from "the Champ", is it?

The finale aired? Frack! Frankly, I'm going to be relieved when almost everyone goes on hiatus. It's a hassle trying to juggle this many shows! (Agents of SHIELD/Agent Carter, Flash. Arrow, Gotham, Big Bang Theory.) We scratched Elementary off the dance card some time back. Maybe we'll see it on hiatus or something. IIRC, Flash should be it, except for Agent Carter as a replacement. (Frankly, a great idea, IMHO.)

Yes, it was all built on the work of others who never heard of twi, plus some showmanship/huckstering a la Harold Hill or PT Barnum courtesy of vpw, and then the private agendas with control, adulation, luxuries, and sins. There's been a lot of TALK about miracles and so on. There's never been the DEMONSTRATION about miracles. vpw-and thus twi-has always been about BLUSTER and SHOWMANSHIP and NOT about deliverance nor the flock. It's like you summoned a reply to that-and one that demonstrated the cluelessness you mentioned! Other Christians talk about deliverance, about compassion, and so on. twi's claim to fame has been claims about POWER. Always the CLAIMS about power, and never the DEMONSTRATION of power. Oh, and lots of criticizing of other Christians for not measuring up to twi standards, supposing twi HAD standards, that was another smokescreen. So, twi was quite verbose about other Christians being unable to demonstrate God's Power. vpw harped on that a lot. What he NEVER did was spend a block of time DEMONSTRATING God's Power. So, we went from vpw castigating other Christians for not demonstrating God's Power, to vpw doing/not-doing exactly the same thing, and then someone saying that it's unfair to complain since supposedly other Christians don't demonstrate it either. It's the sizzle that sells the steak- and twi's always been big on sizzle and absent on steak. Cute little misdirections not only fail to hide it, they serve as a flag that something important was said and someone wants it hidden. So, it points to it like a blinking arrow! I think it's quite comforting that twi itself is withering away as its population just turns elderly and is unable to interest anyone new to appear. They'll all eventually die of old age and the group will be over. Even the splinters seem to be rather insular-those that attract the young attract mostly the kids of the members, and not rooms of new faces that are still around 5 years later. The splinters are withering more slowly, but they're each smaller to begin with.

If that's the reason, he didn't bide THAT much time. He began posting March 11, 2015, and by March 13, 2015, he was already passing judgement on everyone because he couldn't get an animated discussion on a pet topic of his, some Bible version made up by some ex-twi'er. Me, I've had pet threads where NOBODY replied, and I took that in stride. But for him, it was sufficient to pass judgement, Not caring about THAT version meant nobody cared about the Bible at all. We all are just here to vent. That's the link back to it, I don't feel the need to paste the reply here. Naturally, a FEW of us have suggested him starting new threads on OTHER things that interest him, something more general than someone's vanity project, but his response is that nobody cares, so he won't start them. How CONVENIENT. If the posts aren't in the subjects he wants, in the STYLE he wants (he complained about verbose posts), and in the POSITION he wants (have to agree with him), they're awful and horrible. I've lost track of how many people have shown up specifically to diagnose us, and demand we ban them when nobody played along. Any idea how many since you've been posting? True. This thread's about something else, not whatever's on MRAP's mind. However, a new thread about whatever's on MRAP's mind is fine, so long as it's in the correct forum. Oh, BTW, Allan, try to be a little understanding for those who have almost no experience online. They're not used to how discussions here have a lot of disagreements on them, and iron sharpening iron (virtually), and so on.

Me too.

That's it. One or more scenes with the starfighters in the hangar- X-Wings and Y-Wings. Chewbacca gets the last word. We don't see him get a medal, but he gets the last word. The comic book adaptations make it clear he GOT a medal, it just wasn't PRESENTED like the others because Leia wasn't tall enough. And when the MTV Movie Awards gave the Lifetime Achievement Award to Chewbacca, Peter Mayhew came out in his costume, and Carrie Fisher hung a medal around his neck. Me, I always said his closing line was him yelling "Hey! Where's my medal?" George Lucas, and how merchandizing changed the face of filmmaking. Flash Gordon serials had the scrolling text. War films had the gunners firing at fighters from turrets, and so on.

I figured you meant #1. Sadly, I mentioned that was an incorrect guess. Any thoughts about the others?

"Uh, well, if anyone from the, uh, from the IRS is watching, I... forgot to file my, my, my 1040 return. Um, I meant to do it today, but, uh..." "That's no joke. They'll jump on him!" "Jack, you'll be glad to hear that we've contacted President Nixon, and he's going to grant you an extension on your income taxes, since you are most decidedly out of the country." "Roger that, Houston. That's wonderful news."

The original version of this film included props in the background constructed of paper-but the audience couldn't tell that. The last line of this film was not composed of words. The director gambled everything on this film, and kept the merchandizing rights against the box office. The studio made a lot of money at the box office, but the merchandizing rights made him wealthy in one shot! Naturally, this only increased after he made more movies with such a strategy... This film owes a LOT to films that came before, having borrowed styles from old black-and-white films of different genres. But it was put together in a new way and audiences loved it.

I think she was MOSTLY messing with him. Then again, he made that weapon with relatively little time and sweat. THAT certainly gets her attention. "You know, a woman like that could ruin a man- if he was lucky." Since I'd mentioned Cold's sister weeks before, when Lisa sat down next to Cisco, Mrs Wolf signaled me and asked if that was her. I thought a minute, matched the hair up, and off we went. When she gave her name as Lisa, that cinched it. If Barry had trusted Cisco more and Len Snart less, a lot of trouble would have been avoided. (Also, Barry should have waited to complete his half of the deal. (I have all the files, and I have the only copy of the records. If you break the deal, it all goes back. Or, just promise to do it all after.)

I'm all caught up. Actually, we partly predicted the conclusion to "Arrow" about 1 month ago.

That's it. It's not the most famous song, but as a novelty song, it's gotten a lot of mileage over the decades.

"Oh me, oh my, oh, you. Whatever shall we do? Hallelujah. This situation is peculiah. I'd give a lot of dough if only I could know the answer to my question-is it yes or is it no?" "Here comes a blushing bride. The groom is by her side. Up to the altar Just as steady as Gibraltar. Why, the groom has got the ring And it's such a pretty thing. But as he slips it on her finger The choir begins to sing" "Now the nation rise as one To send their wanted son Up to the White House Yes, the nation's only White House To voice their discontent Unto the President To ask the burning question That has swept this continent- 'If tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make foghorns out of?' {Boom boom!)" "If your mother says don't chew it do you swallow it in spite? Can you catch it on your tonsils as you heave it left and right?"

I was, I thought that Mother Carlson's first name was "Rebecca." *checks* No, IMDb says she was "Lilian."

Please mention which you're trying to guess, since I know you don't mean that you're guessing that's all of them at the same time. However, sadly, I decided not to go with the one you mentioned. I saved an episode to watch later, but I didn't use it, especially since you introduced me to it and it would be like handing the answer to you. (I reserved the right to add it to the round if nobody got it, though.)

Any chance this is some kind of triple? Otherwise, that may not be the correct movie. I've heard of a lot of even obscure vamp flicks, and none mention 12 or monkeys that I know of. And I doubt Raf is going to go THAT obscure without a warning if at all.
