  2. It is Gladiator. NOW I'm leaving. George
  3. "I knew a man once who said, "Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."" "I wonder, did your friend smile at his own death?" "You must know. He was your father." "You loved my father, I know. But so did I. That makes us brothers, doesn't it? Smile for me now, brother." "My decision disappoints you?" "You wrote to me once, listing the four chief virtues: Wisdom, justice, fortitude and temperance. As I read the list, I knew I had none of them. But I have other virtues, father. Ambition. That can be a virtue when it drives us to excel. Resourcefulness, courage, perhaps not on the battlefield, but... there are many forms of courage. Devotion, to my family and to you. But none of my virtues were on your list. Even then it was as if you didn't want me for your son." "Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained? Is this not why you are here?" "Spaniard! Spaniard! Spaniard! …" "At my signal, unleash hell." "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the TRUE emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next." "Three weeks from now, I will be harvesting my crops. Imagine where you will be, and it will be so. Hold the line! Stay with me! If you find yourself alone, riding in the green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled. For you are in Elysium, and you're already dead!" If you know the answer, go ahead. I won't be back to check, though, at least until Monday night. George
  4. Sadly, I shall be away from my computer at least until Monday night. If someone else wants to post, have at it. If it's still open when I get back, I'll post one then. George
  5. I STILL don't know what you're talking about. George
  6. Unfortunately, I'll be off the grid until Monday night or Tuesday, so I can't take the round, now. FREE POST If it's still open when I get back, I'll post one then. George
  7. Embarrassing, but I've still got nothing. George
  8. One would think that a star lineup like that would be a giveaway. I'm just having trouble seeing Boris Karlov and Leonard Nimoy in the same role. Frankenstein's monster? George
  9. That's a mistake I think we can all forgive. George
  10. No idea. Sounds pretty funny! George
  11. Didn't you do this one, before? I don't remember the answer, but the detectives' cars bit and the "coroner with an iron stomach" phrase seem AWFULLY familiar... George
  12. It is. I saw it in college. It was pretty creepy, but it was well done. I saw "Gloria Bell" recently. Another upstanding, middle-class single woman getting into bad relationships with guys she meets at bars. As opposed to LFMG, though, GB was pointless. George
  13. Interesting guess. I could envision Loki giving the second discourse. But, no. "I knew a man once who said, "Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."" "I wonder, did your friend smile at his own death?" "You must know. He was your father." "You loved my father, I know. But so did I. That makes us brothers, doesn't it? Smile for me now, brother."

  14. Human, We used to have a thread called The Nostalgia Thread. It was sort of a "mash up" thread about old TV shows, etc. It was common for players who knew the answer to give other clues which showed they knew the answer, without actually giving it away. (Eventually, someone would give the answer, and the game would move on.) Raf does this in most of these threads. For example, he knows the answer to my "Movie Mash Up" challenge, but has refrained from answering, instead giving clues of his own. It's his way. George
  15. Once I realized what the song was, I got the clue. I had just thought that Raf was being surly. George
  16. You seem to be searching for something... George
  17. A quick check with Google indicates that you are correct. Your turn. George
  18. "I knew a man once who said, "Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."" "I wonder, did your friend smile at his own death?" "You must know. He was your father."

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