  4. Flesh and Blood Rutger Hauer Ladyhawke George
  5. A couple of the characters sound familiar, but I can't place them. :( George
  6. The American President Michael J Fox Doc Hollywood George
  7. I don't know who "Creepshow" is, but he didn't star in "The Natural." ;) George
  8. All the President's Men Robert Redford The Natural George
  9. "Sleeper" was my favorite movie for a long time. (And I've always loved "What's Up, Tiger Lily?") George
  10. I know who Holbrook is, of course, but I can't think of a movie role, either. George
  11. Interesting guess, but no. This should give it away: Hercules Sinbad Cain Hulk George
  12. The star of the movie played clarinet in the Dixieland parts of the music score. The movie was originally to have been shot in Brasilia, then considered a very "futuristic" city. Budget constraints kept filming in the US. The main character is told that his world came to an end when a madman named Albert Shanker got hold of a nuclear device. Albert Shanker was the president of the American Federation of Teachers. George
  13. I was tempted to say Honor Blackman, but she was CATHERINE Gale. I suspect that we're talking about Judy Garland. George
  14. The longevity of the TV show attests to its popularity. Unfortunately, we have a VERY small subset of the population posting to this forum. I suspect that zombies are more popular, even among the (less limited) GS population. You could try posting this in the Open forum; and if you get enough takers, move it back here. George
  15. The writers had a problem with Drake, in that he'd have to explain why he could take out KGBeast but not King Snake (or was it the other way around -- we're talking about two decades ago). There was also the problem of who could beat whom in a fight. Was Lady Shiva the toughest? Or Batman? Or Cassandra Cain? They would explain that the Joker could occasionally beat Batman or Cassandra, because his fighting style was so "unpredictable." (There was a time when Connor Hawke took over for his dad as Green Arrow. Batman opined that Connor was a better fighter than Batman, but that he was the better archer.) I liked the Darrkh series, because it brought back John Constantine, however briefly, and Vixen. Nuking the planet was a bit over the top, but not too different from the global catastrophes envisioned by Ra's al Ghul in the comics. Maybe the next season will return Arrow more to its "roots," and we'll all be happy. George
  16. Let's not forget his team of top level martial artists and computer hackers. (It seems that every show these days has someone who can hack pretty much every system. Arrow has at least two (Felicity and her dad) and maybe three (Curtis).) As was pointed out in "The Last Action Hero," the threats always get worse in the sequels.:) I guess we can agree to disagree, here. What I"VE found most annoying about the series is that every episode someone threatens to, or does, quit the team. Of course, touchy-feely is pretty much the hallmark of a CW series. George
  17. I'm not sure I consider the first two seasons "grounded in reality." Maybe you just mean suspending your belief a little less. Dealing with more powerful adversaries means more guest appearances from other heroes! :) Back to Flash, I wonder if the altered timeline will allow the Supergirl universe to merge in... George
  18. I get what you're saying, but almost every long-running show has to re-invent itself periodically. Legends of Tomorrow can't always be about chasing down Vandal Savage, so there's a new premise for next season. As we've opined above, there's no telling what will happen with Flash next season. (It would be great if the altered timeline left Captain Cold alive, but the Vanishing Point controller destroyed.) I'm not privy to contract considerations, but I suspect that Oliver will "get the band back together" sooner rather than later. George
