The actor could be John Houseman based on the commercials, but it's a lot more likely we're talking about Orson Welles. (Or possibly someone else I didn't think of.) If it was Welles, then "War of the Worlds" was a radio show, not a movie. Any chance this was "CITIZEN KANE"?????

Funny thing. Someone posted a video clip- which was missing when I saw the post- of that line. Based on the context, it must have been that line. And I read it minutes before seeing this thread, so it was fresh in my mind. This must have been Jack Davenport as James Norrington, and Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in "PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN- CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL." Mrs Wolf and I like to point out actors we know when they appear in movies, and JD is a favorite of the Mrs, so I actually remember his name faster than the character's name. For Depp, I had to keep running through his roles in my head until it agreed to release his name.

*looks it up* I hope somebody else gets it. I've never even HEARD of this movie.

I keep thinking of the Flash's Rogues Gallery- but only because Justin Hartley's name reminds me of Hartley Rathaway, who IS a Rogue. ONE name would give it away immediately? Then it's no Rogue, it's someone who has a recognizable actor playing them- and exactly one. That narrows the field considerably. How about "AQUAMAN", with Jason Momoa being the missing name? You've got another Pacific Islander type name in the list already posted.

Throwing out a name because my subconscious is bugging me... any chance this is "GLASS ONION" or something related to it?

Since I'm asking anyway, how about "FRIAR LAWRENCE"? That is, the clerical fellow in "Romeo and Juliet" that gives Juliet the potion that puts her in a coma and makes her APPEAR dead until it wears off? IIRC, that Ferrer was the son of the one that played Cyrano.

2 of the names ring a bell. I thought Phil Lemar may do voiceover work. Do I have my Ferrer's correct, and Miguel is the one that played Cyrano, or is this Ferrer the son of the one that played Cyrano?

I recognize all 6 names, even if I might not recognize 1 or 2 on sight. I don't know of a movie with all of them in it, although obviously there was one since you're saying there was.

I'm totally unfamiliar with this. If I were to take a wild guess, I would see "Anna Faris" and try "SCARY MOVIE" since I know she was in at least one of those. So, my guess is "SCARY MOVIE."

It's a role, Miguel Ferrer is an actor. "CYRANO DE BERGERAC"????

Some cities are more popular than others as settings for shows, and have had multiple series set in them. In this case, I recall 3 live-action series set in this city. (This city does not have its own wiki, but it has a page in at least 13 wikis.) The last of those shows was a little obscure (but has its own wiki.) The first of those shows was famous (but does not appear to have its own wiki- it has pages in a more general wiki.) In between those shows was a show with popularity between famous and obscure. (It has its own wiki.) It ran for 5 seasons. It carried the name of the city (lawyers may wrangle on whether or not I am correct.) It was written as a serious show, an action drama. It didn't really cross over with any shows, but was in-continuity with at least 1 show that aired after this show ceased production. The last episode of the series was planned to be the last episode. It was set a decade after the rest of the series, and was titled "The Beginning..." The show borrowed freely from other media, but was as much inspired by them as anything else, taking plenty of dramatic license, which resulted in a better show. Despite this show using largely unknown actors, it could be argued that they used at least 3 well-known actors in recurring roles. One of those actors had been on television, and in a major movie series, (a trilogy, sorta.) The other 2, despite not having worked together previously, were both well-known from roles in well-known Science Fiction franchises (one from "Firefly", one from a "Star Trek" show.) Across one season, an electric light shone outdoors was a significant item. (Again, this was not a legal/law firm show, nor does it contain "Law" or any variation in the name, nor do lawyers play any significant role in the story. If you still think they do after this, it's not because I didn't try to warn you off a dead end. None of this parenthesis is any sort of clue, I'm just trying to head off digressions into the wrong shows.)

It's correct, and it's your turn.

There's 2 famous men who are memorialized in the Baseball Hall of Fame. They were not inducted into it, and they were never baseball players (although they have been seen in uniforms for the St Louis Wolves.) They are memorialized with a solid gold display on the Hall of Fame library's second floor. Because of these 2 men, many of us (myself included) can remember the starting lineup and positions of the St Louis Wolves when they are not up at bat. Who were these 2 men, and why were they memorialized there?

You can't think of the answer right now- I'd say that was factually correct. These 2 men are famous.

About Abner Doubleday, you'll find this interesting. Baseball historians generally dismiss claims AD had any significant role in the history of baseball (he provided bats and balls for men in his unit, but lots of men did that- and that's about all he did.) There's references to him in the historical comments and educational content. However, there is not an actual display of anything- no plaque, no statue, no wall, etc. So, I would not judge that as "memorialized." I have updated the question to exclude him. About Kenesaw Mountain Landis, I was not looking for that name. That having been said, he was indeed memorialized in the Baseball Hall of Fame....having been INDUCTED in 1944 (the year of his death.) He is memorialized with a plaque- but the induction disqualifies him from his name as a possible answer. https://baseballhall.org/hall-of-famers/landis-kenesaw (Please don't wander around that site- that would be cheating. I linked that specific page because it's about KML and does not have any spoilers for this question on it.)

Next one, probably too easy. There's 2 famous men who are memorialized in the Baseball Hall of Fame. They were not inducted into it-they were never baseball players. Who were they, and why were they memorialized there?

"Kiss mah grits!"

Star Trek (The Original Series, aka ST TOS)

*checks* I've never heard more than a few seconds of this song. I'm unfamiliar with the artist, as well. Someone else will have to get this one. Probably someone, ah, 'born at a more comfortable distance from the Apocalypse.' (i.e. someone older.)

Mel Gibson Lethal Weapon 2 Joe Pesci

No. Not a legal show, not the city of Boston. If you were thinking of William Shatner, then wrong actor, but correct general franchise for one of the actors.

That's it.
