  5. This movie was 170 minutes long. The f-word and derivatives of it appear 226 times. Interestingly, this isn't the record, even among major motion pictures. When the director submitted the film to the MPAA, they gave it an "X rating". He then made some cuts and resubmitted it a second time; again the film was given an "X rating" (one of the reasons apparently being that a character was shot too many times). He yet again made some further cuts and submitted it a third time; yet again it was given an "X". The director refused to cut the film any further to qualify it for an R. He and the producer arranged a hearing with the MPAA. They brought in a panel of experts, including real narcotics officers, who stated that not only was the film an accurate portrayal of real life in the drug underworld, but ultimately it was an anti-drug film, and should be widely seen. This convinced the arbitrators that the third submitted cut of the film deserved an "R rating" by a vote of 18-2. However, the director surmised that if the third cut of the film was judged an "R" then the very first cut should have been an "R" as well, to which the MPAA disagreed. However, since he believed the studio execs wouldn't know the differences between the different cuts that had been submitted,he released the first cut of the film to theaters anyway, confessing to the fact only after its home video release several months later.

  6. I think my favorite scene is Vizzini telling Fezzik to kill Wesley: "You! Giant! Kill him your way!" "What is my way?" "Hide behind a boulder; and when he passes by, smash his head in with a big rock!" "Uhhmm...my way is not very sportsmanlike." George
  7. I THOUGHT so... Gwyneth Paltrow Iron Man 3 Ben Kingsley George
  8. Inconceivable!!! "The Princess Bride," of course. I'm not sure if they're planning to kidnap Buttercup or deal with Wesley, in this scene. George
  9. Sean Connery First Knight Richard Gere George
  10. Rosie O'Donnell Exit to Eden Dan Aykroyd George
  11. This is still a free post, if anyone wants it. George
  12. All right, boys and girls, I'm flipping the cards. "Con Air" FREE POST George
  13. This one could go another three days... Now, if it had been RONNY Cox... George
  14. I googled "99 Tears." That's not quite the title. (Off by a few tears.) It's also not surprising that you have a question about the performer. The group has always been a bit of a mystery. George
  15. Still trying to get a guess. This movie did fairly well at the box office, and it's been used in the Name that Flick thread. Not many more people in the cast, though. Nicholas Cage Steve Buscemi Ving Rhames Rachel Ticotin John Malkovich Danny Trejo John Cusack Mykelti Williamson Dave Chappelle Monica Potter Nick Chinlund George
  16. SHIELD is really getting good. Too bad it's the final season. (Reminds me of ST Enterprise. The last season was great, but it had already lost its viewers.) As I mentioned, the team is travelling through time, trying to stop the Chronicons from screwing up the timeline. They're making each episode in the style of TV shows from the given time period. In the 1950's episode, Colson's robotic eyes were damaged, so everything was in black and white. This past episode (1970s), the intro was as it would be on an ensemble show of the time. And it's not just the gimmick(s). The story line is good! George

  19. So, Stargirl is actually pretty good. Since the two-week no-spoilers rule is past for the pilot and probably a couple of episodes, I can give the basic premise: The Injustice Society killed all the JSA (except Stripesy -- Pat Dugan). Pat has a son and recently married Courtney Whitmore's mom. He brings the family to Blue Valley, where the JSA had had their headquarters. Courtney finds the Cosmic Staff and bonds with it. She later grabs all the old JSA equipment and starts dealing it out to her classmates, including Yolanda Montez, Beth Chapel, and Rick Tyler. (The names of JSA successors in the comics.) Courtney's stepbrother mentions he has a friend named Jakeem, but we haven't seen him yet. It will be interesting to see if they recruit a Flash or Green Lantern, since Jay Garrick and Alan Scott never got replaced in the comics. Oh, and coincidentally, all of the Injustice Society live in Blue Valley, too. All this and high school drama. George
  20. My dad always tried to correct me from "pants" to "trousers." You say "potato"; I say ------------- SPUD! George
  21. Presumably, the "Rejected Wedding Guest" was when he actually appeared as himself at Reed and Sue's wedding. "No! Really! I AM Stan Lee!" George
  22. I guess you picked the only one Matt Damon WASN'T in. George
