  1. One Million Years BC was not a major...? Ok. Whatevs. Mid 80s movie that coulda had Welch but went younger... Based on a novel that had a sequel. Male lead could poke fun at Richard Dreyfus... I fold
  2. At around the same time as this live action series, another live action version of the title character was featured occasionally on segments of a completely unrelated series. Different actor, and the stakes were never as high. You guys are naming everyone except this guy.
  3. I'm counting seven movies where Superman is a title character and one where he's a supporting character. Two if you count a cameo where you don't see his face. Which one am I missing? Superman I-IV Returns Man of Steel Batman v Superman... Justice League Shazam Anything else in theaters? Plus, Superman and the Mole Men was released in US theaters and was 27 years before Superman (1978) So, no. You're on the right track though. Wrong railroad.
  4. Well, she actually WAS the lead in One Million Years BC, and that was 1966. So it would have to be released before that. Without looking it up, I'm gonna go with Dr. Zhivago (Julie Christie did a few nude scenes; I have no idea whether one was included in Dr. Z. Like I said, I'm guessing).
  5. 11 films and counting. The main character has a stable of antagonists, but none appeared in the tv series (well, one sort-of antagonist appeared, but oddly, he was not as opposed to the main character as later movie audiences would find him).
  6. So much accuracy to result in the wrong conclusion. Change your third paragraph.
  7. The character was on TV long before he was in theaters. Anyway, let's try this: This series is live action. There are a number of animated series featuring the main character as well. One of the 11 movies was animated as well.
  8. Oh... NONE of the movies were based on the tv show.
  9. I guarantee you know the answer. Not a lot of characters have been in 11 movies [eight as the title character].
  10. If it helps, this is a true story [hollywood style, but still]. That should really narrow it down when you realize who's being referenced in the first quote.
  11. Abraham Erskine Stanley Kubrick Johnny, a mob figure whose boss gets ripped off because he was afraid Mr. Lombino was gonna send Mario to collect instead.
  12. One of the lead actor's first roles was as a Von Trapp child in The Sound of Music (movie). The show was canceled primarily because the network did not want to be too closely associated with its genre: it already had two successful shows in the genre and only kept one of them. The original pilot was given a theatrical release in some countries, but not in the USA. The main character would not be seen in theaters again for another 25 years. Since then, he's been on the big screen 11 times.
  13. "You're a good man. Your brother is a good man. I assure you, there are other good men. Let us hope the will of good men is enough to counter the terrible strength of this thing that was put in motion." * "And they fire their missiles. And we fire ours." * "We gave up so much to get here. I don't know. Sometimes I think, what the hell did we do it for?" "Well, I don't know about you, but... I'm in it for the money."
  14. Star Trek II Redux (aka, Star Trek Into Darkness)
  15. Name the actor who played: Richard Cross Ceasar Flickerman Jack Warner Frank Nitti
  16. The Robert Blake movie is indeed "In Cold Blood" This movie is indeed "Capote." Truman Capote is the real life inspiration for the character Dill in "To Kill a Mockingbird," whose author, Harper Lee, was one of Capote's best friends. She was a character in both Capote (played by Catherine Keener) and in "Infamous" (played by Sandra Bullock). Infamous came out a few months after Capote and starred Toby Jones, better known to fans of this site, I suspect, as Armin Zola in the first two Captain America movies.
  17. This movie falls loosely into the genre of movies about the making of other movies [actually, it's more of a movie about the work that went into a book that was later made into a movie that starred Robert Blake]. This movie was nominated for best picture. Its lead performer won Best Actor. A fictionalized version of the main character in this movie appears as a child in a novel by another author, itself made into a classic film. The author of the other novel is a character in this movie. A similar movie was released a few months later. It, too, was acclaimed, but suffered from coming out so soon after this one. Still, it's definitely worth watching. To win this round, name ANY movie referenced in this clue: This movie.... The book/Robert Blake movie that this movie is about The classic novel/movie that featured the main character of this movie as a fictionalized character (as a child) The similar movie that came out a few months later.
