If someone makes a guess (incorrectly) OR if enough time passes (a day or two), I add another clue. There are really no "rules" in that regard. "Reba"? George

No. It's a comedy. I'm sure that we'll get it with a few more lines... George

"Mutiny on the Bounty"? George

"The Caine Mutiny"? George

I posted earlier that I believe I know the third movie. It's the other two that aren't clicking. George

Actually, I know Bokeem Woodbine and Geoffrey Arend from TV. Still don't know the movies. George

"Johnny Dangerously"? George

You might be right, since many of the characters are short. He definitely wasn't the tallest character. Incidentally, that actor was the one who had his stunt double get tattooed. George

Actually, I found it so-so. But, that's just me. ;) George

Although this movie had a large cast, the movie was "about" nine of them. Eight of the nine actors received tattoos of the word "nine" (in a foreign script). (The remaining actor convinced his stunt double to get the tattoo!) The tallest of the nine actors played the shortest character. George

The last part seems to be a Keanu Reeves vehicle. I'm stumped with the first two. George

THAT's the one. You're up. George

I keep picturing Danny Kaye, though I consider him an accomplished singer and dancer, not just a comedian and storyteller. As you've underlined "I made a fool of myself," I'll try "The Court Jester"? George

Some of the quotes seem familiar, but I can't place them. I suppose it would be easier if I knew who the comic was. "Storytelling" talent is throwing me. George

Correctamundo. George

Close. (In genre, if not cast,etc.) "Dan, we didn't see this thing coming?" "Well, our object collison budget's a million dollars, that allows us to track about 3% of the sky, and beg'n your pardon sir, but it's a big-foot sky." "With the proximity of the asteroid, and no prep time, none of our primary plans can work." "Why don't we just send up a hundred and fifty nuclear warheads and blast that rock apart?" "You know we're sitting on four million pounds of fuel, one nuclear weapon and a thing that has 270,000 moving parts built by the lowest bidder. Makes you feel good, doesn't it?" "You wanna compare brainpans? I won the Westinghouse prize when I was 12, big deal. Published at 19, so what. I got a double doctorate from MIT at 22, Chemistry and Geology. I taught at Princeton for two and a half years." "I know the presidents' chief scientific advisor, we were at MIT together. And, in a situation like this, you-you really don't wanna take the advice from a man who got a C minus in astrophysics. The presidents' advisors are... wrong. I'm right." "It is stuck, yes?" "Back off! You don't know the components!" "Components. American components, Russian Components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!" George

A free-spirited woman kidnaps a man to help her save President Grant from a mad scientist. Starring Melanie Griffith and Will Smith. George

Googling to move along... Lincoln Sally Field Forrest Gump George

Well, if I hadn't seen the film, it wouldn't have been easy. Besides, in this thread, the clues are SUPPOSED to be easy! :) "Feed the birds! Tuppence a bag!" George

That "Get it" "Got it" Good" bit seems really familiar. Was this an Abbott and Costello film? George

"Double Jeopardy"? George

Not Air Force One. This might make it easier: "With the proximity of the asteroid, and no prep time, none of our primary plans can work." "Why don't we just send up a hundred and fifty nuclear warheads and blast that rock apart?" "You know we're sitting on four million pounds of fuel, one nuclear weapon and a thing that has 270,000 moving parts built by the lowest bidder. Makes you feel good, doesn't it?" "You wanna compare brainpans? I won the Westinghouse prize when I was 12, big deal. Published at 19, so what. I got a double doctorate from MIT at 22, Chemistry and Geology.

"Back off! You don't know the components!" "Components. American components, Russian Components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!" George

Was this a version of Peter Pan? George

Not Fail Safe. Not a bad guess, though. "You know we're sitting on four million pounds of fuel, one nuclear weapon and a thing that has 270,000 moving parts built by the lowest bidder. Makes you feel good, doesn't it?" "You wanna compare brainpans? I won the Westinghouse prize when I was 12, big deal. Published at 19, so what. I got a double doctorate from MIT at 22, Chemistry and Geology. I taught at Princeton for two and a half years." "I know the presidents' chief scientific advisor, we were at MIT together.

Rottie, you didn't need to give the other show. As I understand it (I have not seen this), Bryan Cranston from "Breaking Bad," wakes up with Jane Kaczmarek from "Malcolm in the Middle," saying he had a dream about being a drug lord... George
