  1. All Gassed Up and Dying for Some Football is, of course, correct. You'd have to be wearing a full metal jacket not to see it. Moving on... (I'm having trouble posting a clue. Will get to it when I can. In the meantime, Sudo?)
  2. I think I've figured out why there are three vice presidents...
  3. Tim Roth Planet of the Apes Michael Clark Duncan
  4. Christian Slater Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Morgan Freeman
  5. Bluzeman, Just look at each picture. Can't figure out the first one? Okay, move on to the second one. That's easy. It's a tee. Okay, so you have "something tee." Then you have an ear. "Something tee ear." Next is some old guy. Let's try: "Something tee ear old" or "Something tee ear man" Now you have a fur. "Something tee ear old fur" or "something tee ear man fur" or maybe replace fur with coat. The last one could be a few things. Smile. Teeth. Lips. Stubble. Chin. Which could it be? Go back to the first one. It's a golfer, right? So you try: Golfer Tee... but can't think of a movie with a similar title, so scratch that. Swing Tee... same difference. What is it that golfers say? Fore! Fore tee... Wait! Fore tee ear old fur chin. The Forty Year Old Virgin.
  6. This one took me... oh, roughly 13 seconds. Figure out the first one, which is easy, and the rest fall right into place.
  7. "I don't know if we are ready for these people. Our country is all that we have, and we will fight to keep it."
  8. What I'm saying is that the fact that God chose someone for a task does not prove that he won't fudge up later. For all we know, that was part of the "revelation" that God gave Wierwille, too. :) But seriously, folks. Jesus Christ personally selected Judas, and look at how he turned out. Selection by an authority is no guarantee of anything.
  9. I do that when I start moving into surprising references. Vic Tayback? Mel Sharples?
  10. I haven't called Patrick in ages. Anyone know how he's doing?
  11. I actually agree with Oldiesman's assessment. Samuel chose Saul by revelation, after all. Interestingly, this is why I didn't care WHO Wierwille chose to succeed him when I left, and why I nearly laughed out loud when VICE PRESIDENT JOHN RUPP* told me and WordWolf that God chose VPW, VPW chose LCM by revelation, therefore either LCM is right or God is stupid. And for all those who left in 1989, no matter how many times words are parsed, no matter how many times motives are questioned, no matter how many times names are slandered... history proved us right. * he was not vice president at the time.
  12. Who said anything about a hint? :) Miracle on 34th Street
  13. That reminds me: I need to get to the Post Office.
  14. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore Vic Tayback! Papillon!!

  16. Julie Haggerty What About Bob Charlie Korsmo
  17. It has played in theaters? Ok, I guess. I'm skeptical, but flexible.
  18. If this is what I think it is, it's disqualified. It's not a movie. I'm willing to hear appeals.
  19. The Flintstones John Goodman Sea of Love
  20. I'm not aware of Vickles departure being anything but voluntary. Same goes for Suz. There are other issues involved there, not appropriate for a public message board. Suffice it to say it's none of MY business. As far as I'm aware, they choose not to be here, and that's their decision. Jonny, you may know or remember something I don't, in which case I'll be happy to admit being wrong.
  21. You're thinking too hard, wolfman. I'll have to watch again to be sure, but let's take it point for point: How did it happen? In a binary approach, it's one of two ways... a. We're not told/shown. b. We are told/shown, albeit subtly. Let's start with (a). We're not told or shown. What do we know? We know that Neville is very good at herbology. We know that they are in the library when Neville first tells Harry about gillyweed. We know that Moody has taken an interest in Neville because of that interest in herbology. And we know, from later in the movie, that Moody takes credit for telling Neville about the gillyweed. Based on what we know, we can speculate the following: Moody gave Neville the gillyweed. Neville would not have questioned it. After all, why shouldn't the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher have a bunch of neat stuff? How was he to know Moody stole it from Snape's storeroom? Neville gives it to Harry not long after the scene cuts away from their conversation. Harry has it when he shows up. b. We do see it. If that's the case, I'm right: Moody quickly gives it to Harry (the fact that Harry's being closely watched doesn't seem to stop him from taking the gillyweed in front of anyone, nor does it stop Moody from telling him now's the time to take it. I'd need to see it again, but I was pretty dang sure Moody actually gave him the gillyweed right there for all to see. I guess I just assumed it wasn't a big deal). Either way, it's hardly a plot hole, and nothing to lose sleep over.
