  1. "Ssssh!" "What was that?" "SSSSHHHH!" "Good plan." "I warned you not to eat on an empty stomach." "Oh! Frankenstein!" "Yeah, I used to go out with his sister." "His sister?" "Yeah, Phyllis." "A thing of beauty. DESTROY IT FOREVER!" "It's all in the mind." "Look, if you must shout, shout quietly!" "It's blue glass." "Must be from Kentucky, then." "Maybe time's gone on strike." "What for?" "Shorter hours." "I don't blame it. Must be very tiring being time, mustn't it?" "Why?" "Well, it's a twenty-four hour day, isn't it?" "It's quite uncanny, your faces..." "We're quite cute, really." "You could pass for the originals!" "Won't you please, please help me?" "And I've got a hole in me pocket." "Do you?" "Well, half a hole. I gave the rest to Jeremy." "What would he do with half a hole?" "Fix it to keep his mind from wandering!" "Reminds me of Blackburn, Lancashire."
  2. We did this song in chorus in high school. We didn't know why. When the teacher mentioned we had 1 song too many for the concert, and wanted to let us pick which song to drop, we almost shouted in harmony to drop this song. "FLASHDANCE (What A Feeling)"- Irene Cara. (I THINK It's Irene Cara.)
  3. "I'm a cool dude in a loose mood." "Hey, two ginger ales for my girls!" "Who is this guy?" "Hey, I don't know if you care, but the doctor said you know, I ain't gonna make it much longer, you know what I mean?" "Hey, what did you say your name was?" "I know you want to party tonight- I got an idea. What do you say we go down to Louie's Pizza?" "I stick my hands in fans for fun!" "Move over, boy, I got better things to do. I got plans and they don't include you tonight, tonight, tonight! Who is this guy?" "Who does this guy think he is?" "What do you say, uh, come on. Give me a break. I mean, like me and you and your girlfriend, we could, you know what I mean, we could - *SLAP* Aw, man! Why'd you have to go and do that for?" I wonder if Ace Frehley is embarrassed by this song, or if he thinks the whole thing is funny, by now.
  4. I think you recall the actual video. Do you remember this guy's name in the song/video?
  5. Jack Soo as Nick Yamada. "It must have been the coffee." So, this is "Barney Miller".
  6. If you're suggesting Wordpup's music tastes are for recent stuff, you're incorrect. If you're suggesting he's heard it get airplay recently on the radio or MTV, again, you're incorrect. This song was an 80s hit.
  7. Valley Irons Protection Agency. I noticed how the music video for Lit's "Completely Miserable" included PA in character as VI. I still love the SNL spoof, when David Hasselhoff was the host. So, the Baywatch spoof included someone in the water needing help. DH got on the radios to the lifeguards. 2 were making out with each other and ignoring the calls. One said he'd just had lunch and it's not healthy to go swimming right after eating. The best response was from the Pamela Anderson clone. "But I can't swim. You knew that when you hired me!" DH directed the team all to do something, and PA's job was to run up and down the beach.
  8. They do, but not as many as live next door.
  9. IS a song. And it got plenty of airplay, if not recently. And it had a music video that aired on MTV. I'll accept the song's name without the band, because a lot of people heard the song but didn't know the band's name. And if you try to cheat, you might not find it- the lyric websites seem to skip this song!
  10. "Ssssh!" "What was that?" "SSSSHHHH!" "Good plan." "I warned you not to eat on an empty stomach." "Oh! Frankenstein!" "Yeah, I used to go out with his sister." "His sister?" "Yeah, Phyllis." "A thing of beauty. DESTROY IT FOREVER!" "It's all in the mind." "Look, if you must shout, shout quietly!" "It's blue glass." "Must be from Kentucky, then." "Maybe time's gone on strike." "What for?" "Shorter hours." "I don't blame it. Must be very tiring being time, mustn't it?" "Why?" "Well, it's a twenty-four hour day, isn't it?" "It's quite uncanny, your faces..." "We're quite cute, really." "You could pass for the originals!"
  11. "I'm a cool dude in a loose mood." "Hey, two ginger ales for my girls!" "Who is this guy?" "Hey, I don't know if you care, but the doctor said you know, I ain't gonna make it much longer, you know what I mean?" "Hey, what did you say your name was?" "I know you want to party tonight- I got an idea. What do you say we go down to Louie's Pizza?" "I stick my hands in fans for fun!"
  12. Oddly enough, when I mentioned I was using this song, WordPup quoted this line to me immediately.
  13. A) Art Carney played SAUN DANN, in the Star Wars Holiday Special. He played a human trader who lived on Kashykk, the wookiee homeworld, and he understood wookiee ("shriwook".) B) The actor missing was DENIS LAWSON, who played Wedge Antilles, the Rebel pilot who was in all the major engagements (Yavin 4, Hoth, Endor), and who blew up the second Death Star. He chose not to return for the later movies. C) was already answered by George. It's George's turn.
  14. Ok, George takes this round with the correct answer for C. As for the other answers....
  15. "I'm a cool dude in a loose mood."
  16. Marathon Man Lawrence Olivier Clash of the Titans
  17. "Rock This Town," by the Stray Cats (I think).
  18. That's it. The movie had some bad reviews, but, really, it was meant as light entertainment, an action-comedy, and it succeeds as that.
  19. "Ssssh!" "What was that?" "SSSSHHHH!" "Good plan." "I warned you not to eat on an empty stomach." "Oh! Frankenstein!" "Yeah, I used to go out with his sister." "His sister?" "Yeah, Phyllis." "A thing of beauty. DESTROY IT FOREVER!"
  20. Is this the wrong place to petition for a show with Neve Campbell, Alicia Silverstone, Teri Hatcher and Denise Richards?
  21. I understand plenty of people confusing GENDER with GENDER ROLE. GENDER ROLE is entirely social. So, don't like that guys are supposed to be macho, beer-swigging followers of sports who dote on their cars? Don't conform to that. Be a guy who doesn't do that. Don't like the cultural expectations for women? Don't conform to them. Doesn't mean you changed your gender- you just changed your ROLE. I had someone once say that the Mrs and myself were a "traditional couple" or something like that. That really stretches the meaning of the word "traditional." Neither of us conforms much to gender ROLES. She builds things, etc. When we're dressing for ourselves, we tend to dress alike- t-shirt, jeans, etc. In general, the most traditional thing about us is that I say I'm a man and she says she's a woman, but otherwise, conformity is hard to find. We're not defying the roles DELIBERATELY, we're just ignoring them and doing what works for us. Naturally, someone can slap a label on me and call me closed-minded, but I really think it's easy to tell who's open-minded and who seems to follow narrow tracks of behavior.
  22. *checks* That WAS whom I meant. I was mistakenly thinking Tomalak was the unnamed Commander, and that he had been named. No, Tomalak was a different Romulan. The Klingon captain, likewise, was also unnamed. Here's hoping someone's got an idea on the others.
  23. Ok, a Star Wars/ Star Trek round. If you can answer all 3, go for it. If you can answer fewer, go for it. A) Art Carney from "the Honeymooners" (who played Ed Norton) will be remembered by some Star Wars fans. He appeared in at least one Star Wars VIDEO GAME, reprising a character he played live during the filming of the original trilogy (during the filming of Episodes 4, 5, and 6.) People who watch him in the role may catch an "Ed Norton" moment during his performance, playing against a Stormtrooper the way Norton played off Ralph Kramden. Either name his SW character, or where he appeared (for any meaning of "where he appeared.") B) When Disney moved forward with the sequel trilogy (Episodes 7, 8 and 9), they were good enough to get the gang back together again. All the living members of the principal cast returned to reprise their roles in Episode 7. (Since R2D2 didn't need a human performer, Kenny Baker is listed in the credits as "consultant on R2D2".) I appreciate the effort, no matter what I think of the movie as a whole. However, one actor from the original trilogy flat refused to show up in Episode 7, which I think is a shame, because there was a place for him in the story. Either name the actor, or his role. C) One actor rather famously played both a prominent Federation member and a prominent member of one of their enemies. Who is the actor, AND who did he play? (This question is a lot easier, so I'm asking for BOTH, not just one.)
  24. I thought she was, since the show's opening always gave her name last, and her character was 4th in the ensemble. Ok, I need something, let's see...
