  1. If it wasn't him, my very last guess would have been Jerry O'Çonnell. Thanks. Give me a day for the next one.
  2. "Major Tom" was mentioned in 3 songs. He was introduced by David Bowie in "SPACE ODDITY." Peter Schilling wrote "MAJOR TOM" from the major's perspective. And in "Ashes to Ashes" Bowie suggests Major Tom wasn't an astronaut at all (Bowie was wrestling with all the personas of his past at the time.) THIS song was "Space Oddity" but "Major Tom" was Peter Schilling's song. For some reason I could swear on my life that, when it charted, the DJs said the artist was "Information Station", but I can find no references to them now whatsoever. I don't know if I was just VERY mistaken or if there was a scrub of a band off records for some reason.
  3. Uh, rumor had it that the other 2 spin-offs were the Lou Grant Show (a drama), and "PHYLLIS" (by exclusion, the remaining comedy.) So, is it "PHYLLIS"?
  4. Let's see if any of you know this one, it's not that rare. It IS, however, Spoken-word. This is a 2-person exchange. "Would he offer me his mouth?" "Yes." "Would he offer me his teeth?" "Yes." "Would he offer me his jaws?" "Yes." "Would he offer me his hunger?" "Yes." "Again, would he offer me his hunger?" "YES." "And would he starve without me?" "Yes." "And does he love me?" "Yes." "(Yes.)"
  5. Fine, Sir Reginald Dwight, since his legal name and not his stage-name was knighted.
  6. I thought that was Will Smith also, but let's see..... "Teen Wolf" had Michael J. Fox, but the sequel sorta retold it with a different teen. Young, Caucasian actor, let's see.... "Identity Thief"... who played Sandy whats-his-name........ "JASON BATEMAN????"
  7. Pulp Fiction Uma Thurman The Producers
  8. Now it's starting to sound possible. Um, "Rhoda???"
  9. Yes! I was going to include the judge firing the pistol but I ran out of "max total size" like you guys.
  10. But Pat Boone didn't appear in "Top Secret!" Seriously, I can't remember ANY Pat Boone stuff offhand. A bit of Little Richard, yes, but it's hard enough for me to remember John Denver, let alone Pat Boone.
  11. "Tutti Fruitti", sung by VAL KILMER for "Top Secret!" He did all his own singing as Nick Rivers.
  12. Obviously some tough guy, someone really butch. I think it's Reginald Dwight's "Saturday Night('s All Right For Fighting.)"
  13. Obviously some tough guy, someone really butch.
  14. "Hadoken!" "I can see why Rocky climbed up all the way here." "W-Why aren’t you talking?” "We’re gonna need more money.” "Why? You were in there for, like, five minutes.” "Dude, they were very convincing!” "Oh… You’re… that guy. Hey, listen, I don’t have any money.” "Do not patronize me, boy!” This is a stand-alone movie, and should not be confused as any sort of sequel to the previous movie- which was so long ago few people remember it even exists. One goof accidentally displayed a clear view of Minneapolis' skyline in what was a movie set in a completely different city. The laws of inertia suggest several moments in the movie might not make any sense- but that depends on exactly how certain things work in this movie- which is never stated and, obviously, could make a big difference. Survivor's song "Eye of the Tiger" appeared in this movie, and appropriately so (according to some diehard fans.) One critique of this movie is that it was neither targeted specifically for adults- making for a grittier film- nor for kids- which would have made a more family-friendly film.
  15. Total Recall Sharon Stone The Quick and the Dead
  16. Not sure. The answer to this round IS "THE MATRIX." The 3rd Matrix movie is the poster child for "disappointing sequels." I've no interest in seeing the 4th movie.
  17. (It also had Matt Salinger and Jeffrey Tambor.) Splash John Candy The Blues Brothers
  18. "Now, whatever you think you know about this man is irrelevant. He is considered by many authorities to be the most dangerous man alive. My colleagues believe that I'm wasting my time with you, but I believe you wish to do the right thing. We're willing to wipe the slate clean, give you a fresh start. All that we're asking in return is your cooperation in bringing a known terrorist to justice." "Lieutenant, you were given specific orders" "Hey, I'm just doing my job. You give me that juris-my dic-tion crap, you can cram it up your @$$." "The orders were for your protection." "I think we can handle one little girl. I sent two units, they're bringing her down now." "No, lieutenant, your men are already dead." "So what do you need? Besides a miracle?" "Guns. Lots of guns." "All I see now is blonde, brunette, redhead.: "You're empty." "So are you." " I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid... you're afraid of us. You're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin. I'm going to hang up this phone, and then I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see." "What is real? How do you define 'real'? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain." "You're cuter than I thought. I can see why she likes you." "Who?" "Not too bright, though." " I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure." "Why do my eyes hurt?" "You've never used them before." "Dodge THIS!" "I know Kung Fu." "Show me."
  19. The funny thing about this is that it puts George and myself in the wrong generations- it puts George in Gen X and myself in the Boomers. Doesn't mean anything, but it amuses me. :)
  20. Can we just agree 3 days passed so looking it up to move the thread is allowed?
  21. "Hadouken!" "I can see why Rocky climbed up all the way here." "[/i]W-Why aren’t you talking?” "We’re gonna need more money.” "Why? You were in there for, like, five minutes.” "Dude, they were very convincing!” "[/i]Oh… You’re… that guy. Hey, listen, I don’t have any money.” "Do not patronize me, boy!”
  22. No, and not played up as a comedy.
  23. "Hadouken!" "I can see why Rocky climbed up all the way here."
