Alan Tudyk. Obviously "Wash" of Firefly/Serenity. Steve the Pirate is also a giveaway. Had you gotten to Harry Vanderspeigle (his role in Resident Alien), I would have gotten it from that, as well. George

As I posted earlier, yes, Independence Day. Raf is up (if he wants it). George

Debby. Not much time as a tropical storm before heading into Florida as a Cat 1 hurricane. Hope you guys are battening down the hatches. It's supposed to slow down, meaning it will dump a lot of water on Florida and especially Georgia. George

See the movie. Very entertaining. George

I know I've seen this one. I remember the Viagra joke. Can't think of the situation, though. George

It's not "The Magician," which was not an ensemble show and only ran two seasons. Nor is it "The Magicians," which was about students in a secret academy (and didn't have a single title character). I don't know. George

Joaquin Phoenix? George

Since this isn't the movie thread, it must be The Tonight Show "I'm Larry, and this is my brother Daryl, and my other brother Daryl." George

It was getting there. Yes, of course, Independence Day. The salt flats scene was when Will Smith drags the unconscious alien. I always assumed his comment about the smell referred to the alien, but it was just Smith reacting to the environment. George

I'm about 99.9% sure you've seen this movie. This movie holds the record for most miniature model work to appear in one film. Model shop supervisor Michael Joyce estimated that more miniatures were used for this film than in any other two films combined. Due to the advances in digital technology since this film's release, most experts believe this record may stand forever. Over seventy mock news broadcasts were created for the film. All used real-life newscasters, since the makers believed that actors would not look convincing in such scenes. Except for the bi-plane during the crop-dusting scene, any airplane seen in the air in this film is either a model or computer-generated effect. The quote, "And what the hell is that smell?" was not in the script. The scene was filmed in the salt flats near the Great Salt Lake in Utah. Great Salt Lake is home to tiny crustaceans called brine shrimp. When they die, the bodies sink to the bottom of the lake (which isn't very deep) and decompose. When the wind kicks up just right, the bottom mud is disturbed and the smell of millions of decaying brine shrimp can be very, very bad. Apparently, nobody warned the star. The huge hype that the film began generating caused Warner Bros. to postpone the release of Mars Attacks! from summer to Christmas, and Steven Spielberg (temporarily) cancelled his plans to direct War of the Worlds. According to the producer, the U.S. military had agreed to support the film by allowing the crew to film at military bases, consulting the actors who have military roles, etc. However, after learning of the Area 51 references in the script, they withdrew their support. The film was banned in Lebanon under pressure from Hezbollah, because it included scenes where Israeli and Iraqi soldiers joined forces. Production designer Patrick Tatopoulos presented Roland Emmerich with two concepts for the aliens. Emmerich liked both designs so much, he came up with the idea to use one design as the actual alien and the other to be a bio-mechanical suit the aliens could wear. Both of Tatopoulos's concepts appear in the film. The President's speech was filmed on August 6, 1995, in front of an old airplane hangar that once housed the Enola Gay, which dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima exactly fifty years earlier on August 6, 1945. Interestingly, the crowd was not scripted to start cheering. The star's delivery of the speech was so good that they just started applauding and cheering on their own and the filmmakers kept it in the movie. George

George of the Jungle is correct. George

Sounds slightly familiar, but I'm not getting it. George

"Here come old flat-top, he come groovin' up slowly." George

He's a magician. "Magic Man"? George

He was no good in bed? George

I guess that those clues COULD have been associated with a Godzilla flick, though most of those movies were in Japan-type locations, not a salt flat. You were a LOT closer with "War of the Worlds." George

Two Ses in Janssen, but otherwise correct. "Kamala" was her character in STNG "The Perfect Mate." George

There is a character named Thor in this movie, but I don't think Ragnarok had talking apes... George

Time to get obvious. Kamala Dorothea Swann Rachel Montana Claudia Haggs Leeanne Magruder Elizabeth Burke Evelyn Stockard-Price Kate Wells Rachel Wright Xenia Onatopp Ava Moore Jean Grey George

"Bad guy falls in poop: Classic element of physical comedy. Now comes the part where we throw our heads back and laugh. Ready?" "Ready!" [they all throw their heads back and laugh] "Don't worry. Nobody dies in this story. They just get really big boo-boos." "Arthur, I wish you would do something about all these monkeys. I feel like Jane Goodall." "Madam, I knew Jane Goodall and you are no Jane Goodall." 1: "I'm hungry!" 2: "Oh, shut up. You've been yakkin' for two days straight, and I'm gettin' mad enough to..." 1: "You know, you really should work on your anger. Have you tried Brankowski's "Cage the Rage" technique?" 3: "Don't let him get to you, Thor. He's just an ape." 1: "That's a fine way to talk to your meal ticket. You keep that up, it's liable to affect my stage performance." 3: "Give him a banana, Thor. It won't be long now." 2: "That's what you said yesterday! This trail is taking us to the middle of nowhere!" "I'm chafing, Max. I'm chafing big-time." "Didn't I tell you not to wear twenty pounds of black leather in the jungle? Didn't I tell you? Cotton, I said. Cotton breathes." 1: "No, no! It's all right! Ape friend! Ape make your breakfast!" 2: "What does it want? What does it want?" 3: "'It' wants 'its' Physician's Desk Reference, if you don't mind. Unless you'd rather die of dengue fever, of course." 2: [laughing hysterically] "That is very funny!" 3: [sarcastic] "Ha, ha, ha..." 2: "I thought I heard the monkey talk!" George

He didn't like her cooking? George

I think that was also Greece. George

Correct. One word. (Unless you count "the".) George
