  1. Depends on what kind of box. If it's one of those boxes where a ballerina twirls around after you spin that little knob in the back, it's probably easy. Mike Post...?
  2. Let's see... was it Silence of the Lambs? lol. Yes, Silence of the Lambs had the distinction of being released so early in the year that it was available on home video before it was nominated and, naturally, before it won. Now, AFTER Silence of the Lambs, there were at least three more Best Picture winners that were released ON DVD before their respective Oscar nights. Name any.
  3. DVD? Not sure. If you mean home video, I can tell you the answer, but I would require a quid pro quo.
  4. Name the actor. Branch Rickey Woodrow Dolarhyde Norman Spencer Alexei Vostrikov
  5. Please don't list two movies on the same line. Let the next person jump to the second movie to another actor!
  6. When you asked you out, did you say yes right away, or did you think about it? Did you pick you up, or did you meet you somewhere? How soon before you knew there was real chemistry between you and you? Sorry. You said Klute was a fairly famous movie, so I just wanted to let you know you were dating yourself.
  7. I MIGHT have gotten Chelsea THAYER Wayne. Jane Fonda
  8. Charlie Sheen, 2.5 men? And then after he left, it was 2 men?
  9. There is no Amy in the movie. And there are two characters who are in most of this director's movies (the character in question is played by the director).
  10. Last clue: The name of the character seems rather inconsistent with the length of this quote.
  11. "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow."
  12. It is. Now think about it. I don't expect anyone to know the names of the characters in that movie, save maybe two. And it's one of those two. And considering the length of the quote, there's a touch of irony involved.
  13. "So there's me and Amy, and we're all inseparable, right? Just big time in love. And then four months down the road, the idiot gear kicks in, and I ask about the ex-boyfriend. Which, as we all know, is a really dumb move. But you know how it is: you don't wanna know, but you just have to, right? Stupid guy bulls---. So, anyway, she starts telling me about him... how they fell in love, and how they went out for a couple of years, and how they lived together, her mother likes me better, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah... and I'm okay. But then she drops the bomb on me, and the bomb is this: it seems that a couple of times, while they were going out, he brought some people to bed with them. Ménage à trois, I believe it's called. Now this just blows my mind, right? I mean, I am not used to this sort of thing. I mean, I was raised Catholic, for God's sake. ... "So I'm totally weirded out by this, right? And then I just start blasting her. Like... I don't know how to deal with what I'm feeling, so I figure the best way is by calling her a slut, right? And tell her she was used. I'm... I'm out for blood. I really wanna hurt this girl. I'm like, "What the f--- is your problem?", right? And she's just all calmly trying to tell me, like, it was that time and it was that place and she doesn't think she should apologize because she doesn't feel that she's done anything wrong. I'm like, "Oh, really?" That's when I look her straight in the eye, I tell her it's over. I walk. ... "It was a mistake. I didn't hate her. I wasn't disgusted with her. I was afraid. At that moment, I felt small, like... like I'd lacked experience, like I'd never be on her level, like I'd never be enough for her or something like that, you know what I'm saying? But, what I did not get, she didn't care. She wasn't looking for that guy anymore. She was... she was looking for me... But, uh, by the time I figure this all out, it was too late, man. She moved on, and all I had to show for it was some foolish pride, which then gave way to regret. She was the girl, I know that now. But I pushed her away. So, I've spent every day since then ..."
  14. Welcome back, Steve. Did I miss a post where you explained where and how you've been?
  15. Yeah, brackets and b makes the text that follows bold, even without a brackets /b to signal where to end it.
  16. The letter B in brackets signals the site to put what follows in bold, I think. Testing my theory. Testing it again.
  17. Sorry for the delayed reaction. Happy New Year! Yes, it was Green Hornet/Lone Ranger/Batman.
  18. Not the Truman Show. Can't say what it IS, but I know it's not the Truman Show.
  19. While it's never explicit, the main character of this weekly series (A) was supposedly descended from the main character of another series (B), each main character using the same gimmick to conceal his identity. Each main character had a sidekick that could be considered "exotic," depending on how you define the term. Also, it is revealed during ANOTHER series (C) that the main character of THIS series (A) was childhood friends with the main character of the other series (C). The lead actor of series (A) died this year. His sidekick died in the 1970s. The lead actors of series C are both still alive, although how they managed to escape debilitating STDs remains a true accomplishment, if their memoirs are to be believed.
