That's it. Those were all easy for me, I'm surprised they were that tricky for you. Yosemite Sam playing cards and with ink spilled on his head. Bugs at the beginning of the Peter Lorre as mad scientist cartoon, Wile E. Coyote-super genius and Bugs, And Yosemite Sam clearing out a saloon. You might find this interesting. The line "And I don't mean Mahatma Gandhi!" was changed in recent decades to "And I ain't no namby pamby!" Your turn.

Why, yes. That would be correct.

"With a Little Help from My Friends" -- The Beatles George

Unless, of course, you consider the aftermath. Apparently, it was the remnants of Barry merging with a stationary front in Texas that caused the once-in-a century flooding in Kerr County. George

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song and I'll try not to sing out of key.

Bugs Bunny? George

That worked, thanks!

When this movie hit theaters, one famous actor was notably missing from the credits. He wasn't in a starring role or anything, he just wanted to be in the movie. In fact, at first, it was hard to recognize him at all in his role. For the record, the early scripts didn't really have his role, but when the director found out he wanted in on the movie, he (the director) hastily added a scene just so he (the famous actor) could be in it. When this movie was in the planning stages, 2 actors worked on the script. They had the same agent. He recommended a third actor be cast for a role somewhere. When asked why, he admitted he represented all 3 of them, and it was good for him for the other guy to get a role also. There was some disagreement over the budget. The studio came down with such a low budget for the movie that the director gave up on them and went to a different studio. They agreed, and the movie became a big hit, and rather famous. I'm glad they were able to fix communications with the lighting director. He was given one set of directions, then later told the lighting was awful. Finally, one writer pointed out what they SHOULD have told him from the beginning but they had NOT. (They didn't want gloomy, dark lighting for the scenes, that would have hidden everything. They wanted the FEEL of gloomy, dark lighting, but scenes that were well lit any way.) The lighting director was then able to give them what they wanted. (Good thing he spoke up, the lighting director was getting ready to walk out.) Deleted scenes included the reading of the will. One scene was the subject of a long argument between the two writers about whether or not it should be included- if it would detract from the movie, or add to the movie. It was eventually included- and is probably the best-remembered scene in the movie. (We also saw the famous trope- even people in formal dress seem to carry around vegetables or fruits to throw if they want to complain. Blink and you may miss it.)

This show had a single episode with Desi Arnaz. Also appearing in the episode was Desi Arnaz Jr. In effect, he played Desi Arnaz in a few scenes. In the same episode, someone else briefly played Louis Armstrong ("Satchmo.") Desi himself played Roy Nitti in at least one scene, and spoke as himself. He also did a poetry reading of Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky." (Although, the next week, they did not actually have Charo show up to do a poetry reading as promised.) Later, he did a musical performance, both singing and with the conga drum. Strictly speaking, Jr did not play Sr on stage, but for most people, it probably worked out the same. He played Ricky Ricardo, in effect pretending he was Desi Sr playing Ricky Ricardo. There was also a single episode with Carrie Fisher. Who played a sort-of Annette Funicello role in one of those scenes from a beach movie (beach blanket something-or-other.)

"Don't rush me- I'm a'thinking. And my head hurts." "Did you ever get the feeling that you was bein' watched?" "Why did you pour ink on my head?" "Now don't try to get away! I am more muscular, more cunning, faster, and larger than you are... and I'm a genius. While you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten. So, I'll give you the customary 2 minutes to say your prayers." "I'm sorry, mac, but the lady of the house ain't home and besides we mailed you people a check last week!" "I'm looking over a three-leaf clover, that I overlooked be-three!" "The roughest, toughest hombre that ever crossed the Rio Grande! And I don't mean Mahatma Gandhi! Now, all of you skunks clear out of here!"

I sincerely hope not!

So that leaves out Being John Malkovich. And oh, yes, this is Movie Mash Up. Got it, not your clue WordWolf, just this thread.

Does the title of this movie refer to something I might hear on a daily basis?

Correct George

If you go to YouTube to view the video, that might help. By any chance do you use a private virtual network? The issue may be related to that... if so it might be CBS news doesn't like that. I viewed it on YT with no problem.

No, but you're not as far off as you were.

No. If you were thinking "Vincent Price", he was very easy to recognize in his role. The actor I'm talking about was not.

Not exaggerating a bit, then.

Rocky, I went to watch the video you posted but am getting the message to sign in to confirm I'm not a BOT (below), that I have gotten repeatedly before while signed in. Hopefully Raf can fix... thanks..

Eleanor...The Turtles

I'm hoping that when Ken Burns' (not the one who was in the 9th Way Corps) latest project, a 12-hour (magnum) opus on the American Revolution, airs in November 2025, there will be a worldwide renewed reverence for what Burns declares has been the most important event in world history since Jesus Christ.

Edward Scissorhands? George

In that case... "You got a thing about you I just can't live without you I really want you..." "Your looks intoxicate me Even though your folks hate me There's no one like you..." George

The Carol Burnett Show? George
