  1. File this in the category of Movies that became long-running TV shows. This on won a Best Actress Oscar for its star, who did not return for the TV show. One major supporting actor did return for the series, and though he has been on Star Trek and The Twilight Zone, he's best known for the series. Another major supporting actor (female) returned for the series as a different character, ironically replacing the character she played in the movie (that character was spun off into her own series, which flopped). One supporting actor reprised his series role for a single episode, the pilot, after which he was replaced. That original actor became one of the ballplayers in the original Bad News Bears movie.
  2. All right, well, I wanted to bring him up because I THOUGHT someone else had brought him up already, but I guess I was mistaken. He's got a TON of videos, but I suppose we could address them topic by topic. Threads about PEOPLE are boring.
  3. I humbly submit that all comic book movies, with very few exceptions, would fall under "could be thought of" and "technically correct." But I quibble. Other than that I would have had no doubt. I THINK I'M UP ON THREE THREADS NOW. Had hoped to avoid that. By Monday morning if i have not posted, all three should be considered free posts.
  4. I'm hung up on "could be thought of" and "technically correct." This is a franchise that's not actually named for its source material but the connection is no secret. Like The Flintstones and The Honeymooners. Galaxy Quest was only one movie, so no. Iron Man fits major clues, but the "could be thought of" and "technically correct" would be wildly misleading. Which may be my fault. First guess: Iron Man, even if it contradicts my deductions.
  5. Don't know if it's dubious, but did he not play Dracula. The Wolf Man AND The Mummy?
  6. There's another one where Charlie gets political and Dan tears him apart there too. Dan does occasionally criticize Charlie and others for using the Bible to advance political agendas. THOSE videos should not be posted here. The one you chose is perfectly fine.
  7. Ok that turned out to defend him a little more than i expected.
  8. I haven't vetted this video, but lest this become a Dan McClellan Admiration Society...
  9. There was a really cool video where he responds to Charlie Kirk and embarrasses the hell out of him.' And it is surprisingly apolitical. But I figured I'd err on the safe side and post a different one.
  10. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/19qaL59UTC/ Trying to find the non-facebook version of this.
  11. It's funny. I found the "New Atheists" helpful at the beginning of my deconversion, but I find my patience for them wearing thin as time goes on. Some of their arguments are still quite useful, but I honestly care about them so little as people that it bores me when people bring them up as spokeswhatevers for atheism. More later.
  12. I don't think I was looking for a particular video/response. I just wanted to see if anyone remembered bringing him up and asking me for my thoughts. I cannot remember if the conversation I had was about him or someone else, or even if was here at GSC or some other site.
  13. Trying to remember if someone tried to turn me on to these videos some time ago. This guy has been popping up on my Facebook feed A LOT as a scholar of the Bible and religion. He comes from a Mormon background, which initially made me suspicious, but he seems to be refreshingly honest about his approach to the evidence he has. Anyone have thoughts?
  14. So apparently one character figured it out multiple times, but the first time was a reveal to the audience as well.
  15. I assure that quote is the best clue possible. There won't be a better one.
  16. That was not it. Good guess though. By the way if you never watched the show, this spoils the first season's climax. But it's also common knowledge enough to be a meme. No one would board the train to the Bad Place. Why not?
  17. Wrote out a long reply. Decided it wasn't worth it. Deleted it. Main idea: WW said what I was trying to say about "originals" and I would gladly adopt his language given the original question was about what HE meant.
