Was the scene in "It Happened One Night" the one where the guy explains to the woman how to hitchhike, then demonstrates it very unsuccessfully, and then she tries it and stops the next car immediately by flashing her leg?

OK, I can hear the song a smidge better this time. The band is LED ZEPPELIN. If not, it Should Be. (What do you mean, it Should Never Be?)

I've heard this song. It's either the Rolling Stones or The Who. "SLICK KIDS" by The Who????

OK, enough joking. SHAZAM!

Should be CLARK GABLE.

GEORGE!

"TOGA! TOGA!"

Get out, that was correct? Hang on.....

Billy!

"Pikachu, I choose you!"

I thought that last one was Johnny Cash, or nobody I knew. This one is indeed a famous quote. Now, if I only knew which famous movie it went with... "A Stranger Calls"????

Richard Gere Pretty Woman Julia Roberts

"I'm sure you're both being very clever, but I'm still not getting it." We agree. "If "George" is a clue, then it could be George of the Jungle, but that wasn't a horror film." You found the only part of that post that was NOT a clue, and went looking for the relevance as a clue. "George" is you, so it was addressed to you. The rest of it was all one clue. And this COULD have been a horror film, especially considering the story upon which it was based. But they chose not to go there enough for the movie to qualify. "Something about St. George COULD be, but not all US kids (these days) would know who that is." OK, there's only so many OLD STORIES that all kids would know, would learn. Even fewer have inspired stories that became movies. Two did- and were eliminated as suspects because of the actors who were in them. (So, it was not "Hansel and Gretel- Witch Hunters" because Jeremy "Hawkeye" Renner was in it. "Snow White and the Huntsman" was not it either because Chris "Thor" Hemsworth was in it.) What stories are LEFT? I guarantee you know the song that was inspired by the story. You've seen cartoons inspired by the story- at least one of them with Bugs Bunny. Figure out which story, then you should have no trouble getting the movie.

Never mind. I don't have time for this, I'm working the swing shift over at Lockheed. I'll see you later.

HEY GEORGE! That's an awful big clue for you. To have!

Raf directly quoted something that was not the movie- but it also reference the old story. I replied with a reference to the same thing. BTW, had it been a reference to a werewolf, there's been a bunch of movies since the turn of the century about werewolves, not the least of which was Benicio del Toro in the remake of the old Universal one with Lon Chaney Jr. I keep mentioning that little kids in the US all grow up learning the old story upon which these movies draw. It's not obscure, we ALL know about this old story. I'm not sure about kids who grew up in other countries. If you figure out the old story, you should be able to figure out the answer. And my reference to actors eliminated one possibility of a movie, which eliminated one old story as the possibility.

If that is so, he's posting in the wrong thread. (It might not be so.)

If not, those either have to be 3 roles one actor played, or 3 actors who shared the same role, for this thread. I have trouble picturing an actor calling himself "The Tender Bar"- but that's no guarantee there isn't one. I mean, Prince named himself an abstract symbol for a decade.

If "The Professor" is how the character is remembered, he may be Professor Roy Hinckley, scoutmaster. If so, that would make this actor "Russell Howard". Was that him?

Andy Garcia was already posted on this page. This limits me to Lou Diamond Phillips La Bamba Joe Pantolione

I'm not going to ask you to go on and take a powder, but I'm hoping George will work it out.

Come on, George, work the clues. Raf has already figured it out.

Ok, next question. This one has nothing to do with sports. Some home video games are more famous than others, and some video game companies are more famous than others. In the 1980s, a new video game company was teetering on the brink of non-existence. They did a "Hail Mary" pass, where they worked on one game, and if it tanked, the company was probably going to fold, and a man who later became known for video game soundtrack composing would have left that field. They titled the video game accordingly. Sales for the game took off, and catapulted the company into the spotlight. They made many other home video games afterwards, including a number of my favorites, for a number of home console formats and PCs. Among the video games they made was a considerable number that would appear to be sequels- despite most of them having no connection to the games numbered before them nor after them. That series is incredibly famous among home video games, and well-known across different platforms. (Fans of the "series" all have their own favorites, and may not be interested in many of the others in the "series.") The names are excellent marketing despite that- although an argument can be made that virtually all of them have titles that make no sense- except for the original. They're still making these games, and one was released in 2023 and another in 2024. (For the curious, the original company is still making them- although they had a merger in the decades since they started, and that's obvious from the name of the company.) I'm looking for the name of the first game, the one that started the franchise, that saved the fledgling company, that is famous despite most of the people who've heard of it never having played it or possibly even SEEN it.

But then, how often do you get a chance to see a post that mentions both a Green Lantern and a classic SNES/Play Station/Nintendo DS video game?
