To paraphrase Bruce Banner, "Here's a secret. I'm ALWAYS hungry." (This was not a clue to the film.) George

This was the movie debut of Levar Burton and Brian Dennehy. There were also early roles for Tom Berenger and Richard Gere. The recent film "Gloria Bell" reminded me a lot of this film, though "Gloria Bell" was not nearly so dark in tone. Berenger said his role gave him nightmares. The star of this film is known more for her light comedic roles, though she also appeared in the Godfather films. The film was made and released about two years after its source novel. George

I know this song. I can even hear that phrase. I just can't remember the context. George

In a collection of essays called "All in Color for a Dime," published about 40 years ago, one of the essays was about the Marvel Family. Of course, back in the day, Freddy Freeman became Captain Marvel, Jr., not by saying, "Shazam" but by saying, "Captain Marvel." The author pointed out that Junior was the only super-hero who lost his powers if he said his name. Now, apparently, that can be said of Shazam. George

A slight diversion, but it doesn't deserve its own thread: an old friend of mine pointed out that in neither "Shazam" nor "Captain Marvel" is the name "Captain Marvel" actually said. In fact, it only appears in the credits of the latter movie. George

I didn't actually remember those lines. But telling someone just to run was a clue, and the army quote also seemed to fit. Back soon. George

Forrest Gump? George

No. This is Burton's first theatrical release, not including TV miniseries. George

This has been sitting a while. WW is up, if he wants it. George

So, Raf is up. George

So, Gotham comes to an end. I thought the final episode was pretty good. I wish Gordon kept the moustache, though, and added glasses. George

Halloween? George

Independence Day? George

Nice poetry. No idea about the title or performer. George

That still could be late 90s. My car stereo was set to the oldies station, back then. (Now the "oldies" stations play 90s music!) George

No argument! George

Hanson??? If the new song is from the "same era" (late 1990s, early 2000s) I will almost certainly not get it. I could name a couple of groups from that time, because my stepkids were listening, but I doubt I could name a single title. George

Well, the title begins with a vowel (or maybe an H). I'd guess "Instant," but I'd still have no idea who performed the song. George

Shattered Tom Berenger Sniper (NOT American Sniper!) George

I do not recognize this song. George

I believe Raf was sounding the "disqualify" buzzer, because Goldie Hawn was not in The Witches of Eastwick. At this point, I'm okay with just playing on as we have, but if someone wants to go back to Goldie Hawn, that's fine, too. George

Not getting it yet. George

Of course. George

Time to give this one away. Even though he won an Oscar for the role Marty Piletti, he's probably best remembered as Quinton McHale Trucker Cobb Gen. Sam Worden Dutch Engstrom Emmett Clemens Marty Piletti Mike Rogo Dominic Santini Shack Harry Booth George
