Depending on how you look at it, this movie was either very faithful to the source material, or deviated wildly from the source material. It boasts an all-star cast, and it was based on a previous work. The original author is definitely famous-you've all heard of him. I'm impressed the movie was greenlit- the guy in charge was not known for directing movies, he was known for directing music videos. It has a number of famous lines in it- so famous I'm leery of posting any as clues. The director took creative license with this film (no, really?). Examples include the scene with a guy obviously in drag, and the scene with the drug use (actually, the scenes overlap.)

*checks the cast since 72 hours passed* OK, I recognize 2 of the others. Denis Leary Demolition Man Sylvester Stallone

"Look at them yo-yo's, that's the way you do it."

*looks it up* OK, I was correct, so it's my turn. Let's see...

"I think of you as experienced. In an emergency, you would be the first one that I'd call." "You SHOULD call me first. I need time to put my teeth in." "Hey, where's my sashimi and cream cheese on a bagel?" "Here it's called lox." "The hell it is. We had it before you did." "I didn't know Orientals had a sense of humor." "Are you kidding? We invented gunpowder." “This is a police station, not a coffee shop!” “And we’ve got the coffee to prove it!”

"Annie Hall"??? I can just keep guessing his movies at random. I know 2 of them well, and this is neither of them. Of the others I know almost nothing.

I'm picturing William Shatner's face.... but this isn't a Star Trek movie, and "Incubus" was filmed in Esperanto....

Dawn of the Dead

So close. So DAMN close... George

April 30th and November 1-2, respectively. (Should really be "DAYS of the Dead". but who asked me?)

Still. George

Diane Keaton (R.I.P.) had a major role. "To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down." "You are the greatest lover I've ever had." "Well, I practice a lot when I'm alone." "Oh don't, Boris, please. Sex without love is an empty experience." "Yes, but as empty experiences go, it's one of the best." "So who is to say what is moral?" "Morality is subjective." "Subjectivity is objective." "Moral notions imply attributes to substances which exist only in relational duality." "Not as an essential extension of ontological existence." "Can we not talk about sex so much?" "If it turns out that there IS a God, I don't think that he's evil. I think that the worst you can say about him is that basically he's an underachiever." "If I don't kill him he'll make war all through Europe. But murder... the most foul of all crimes. What would Socrates say? All those Greeks were homosexuals. Boy, they must have had some wild parties. I bet they all took a house together in Crete for the summer. A: Socrates is a man. B: All men are mortal. C: All men are Socrates. That means all men are homosexuals. Heh... I'm not a homosexual. Once, some cossacks whistled at me. I happen to have the kind of body that excites both persuasions. You know, some men are heterosexual and some men are bisexual and some men don't think about sex at all, you know... they become lawyers." George

Otherwise known as...? George

Walpurgis Night? Day of the Dead?

I'll have to run this past Mrs Wolf. There's one such show she will know, and I'm feeling confident it's in this list somewhere.

Yes, sort of, I technically played Raf's turn, but let me come up with something again. Okay.

I got my Gloria Swanson line mixed up, all the time thinking this was A Streetcar Named Desire, but refusing to listen. Bump

Then, I won't be needing to post after all, will I. No clue on your clue, George.

Human is technically still up. George

Steve Burton, Mark Wilson, Valerie Scott, Alexander Fitzhugh, Dan Erickson Anthony Newman, Dr. Ann MacGregor, Gen. Heywood Kirk, Doug Phillips Adm. Harriman (Harry) Nelson, Capt. Lee Crane, Chip Morton, Chief Curley Jones Race Bannon, Hadji Singh Mac McKenzie, Shad, Hector Canfield, Gronk George

The Fugitive "I met him, 15 years ago; I was told there was nothing left; no reason, no conscience, no understanding in even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, of good or evil, right or wrong. I met this... six-year-old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and... the blackest eyes - the Devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up, because I realized that what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply... evil." George

"I didn't kill my wife!" "I don't care!"

"I think of you as experienced. In an emergency, you would be the first one that I'd call." "You SHOULD call me first. I need time to put my teeth in." "Hey, where's my sashimi and cream cheese on a bagel?" "Here it's called lox." "The hell it is. We had it before you did." "I didn't know Orientals had a sense of humor." "Are you kidding? We invented gunpowder."

In the Nitpicker's Guides, Phil Farrand pointed out Odo can pull off a rat well enough to fool anyone, but can't manage a nose. He said he thought Odo wasn't trying very hard. Me, I think Odo's difficulty is a PSYCHOLOGICAL one, not a physical one. For some reason, he thinks of himself so specifically as "other" when dealing with humanoids that he can't copy any of them well- his subconscious sabotages the attempts. Although, I think, by the series finale, he'd get pretty close to a good copy if he tried- because his subconscious had changed. (We also know that, had he lived long enough, he'd work it out- we saw that with the planet with the alternate timeline, when the Defiant crashed in the past and the survivors made a society.
