    Abbreviated countdown

    One! My second son is scheduled to be born tomorrow(April 28) (by C-section). Keep us in your prayers. Estimated time of arrival is 1:30 p.m. Eastern.
  4. I think I remember this. Eraser ?
  5. Back to our regularly scheduled program: (starting from Addams Family Values) Christopher Lloyd Back to the Future III Mary Steenburgen (totally coincidental, by the way).
  6. It's okay to use a sequel IF it attaches the actor to another actor who was not in the original. For example, if I went: Lea Thompson Back to the Future Michael J. Fox You CANNOT come back with Back to the Future II Christopher Lloyd Star Trek III Because Christopher Lloyd was IN the first Back to the Future (the logic is, with some movies/sequels, you can go back and forth between characters and actors all day). You CAN come back with Back to the Future III Mary Steenburgen Parenthood because Mary Steenburgen wasn't in Back to the Future I.

  8. Not Office Space. I guess it was too obscure. The movie is called Shattered Glass. It's about a journalist named Stephen Glass who worked at the New Republic in the 1990s. He was really popular, really well regarded. Then his editor, the respected newsman Michael Kelly, was summarily fired, replaced by Chuck Lane, who was not as well-liked by the staff. Still, Glass continued to write engaging, well-read pieces... until he wrote one that caught the attention of a competing news organization. Their investigation turned up some questions about Glass' credibility, and Lane (the oh-so-hated Lane) pursued an internal investigation that determined Glass had fabricated, in whole or in part, more than 30 stories, give or take. Glass is now a pariah in the journalism business. Hayden Christensen, best known as Darth Vader when he was made of wood instead of metal, played Glass. He was VERY good. Sorry for the lengthy delay in replies.

  10. I'm awake! Let's try another hint. It was a well-received movie, but about as popular with the general public as Traxx. Its claim to fame is that it proved an awful actor actually could act, with the right lines and the right director... The least popular guy at work destroys the career of his star employee, and others at the job end up loving him for it.
  11. Can I jump in and give Trefor time to think of something? The work of a talented creative writer wins the praise of his peers, but his less imaginative supervisor ends up being less than amused.
  12. "It's Bask-ice-ball, the greatest game ever. We invented it. It's awesome!" "Wait, 'bask-ice-ball'? Shouldn't it be 'ice-ket-ball'?" "Ice..ket..ball... That just sounds weird."

  20. Cheated, but interesting result. I had a guess and looked it up. I got the character right, but I got the movie wrong.
