I MUST be thinking of Natalie Cole's version. Sure sounded like someone else, though.
-
Given the way the actress just dropped the show after agreeing to play the title character, she deserves to have her character go out like a punk- off-panel with a vague description. I was uninterested in the show and I STILL say that's a crappy thing to do.

This is "PNK CADILLAC." I'm familiar with Bruce Springsteen's version (and bass line), but Tina Turner was someone else who did this song.

This might be CHRISTOPHER PIKE, Captain of the USS Enterprise. (NCC-1701), later an Admiral.

Correct! The sequel to "Desperado", the 3rd movie for "El Mariachi."

*studies George's post* That would have been a good name for a Western. Check the very last quote. This movie did not take place in "the West." Therefore, the title was....?

This certainly was no fairy tale.... Can you at least figure out where the movie took place?

Love that bass line.....

Dan Ackroyd was Elwood, John Goodman was MIghty Mac. John Popper of Blues Traveler seemed to play himself- he said he and his brother were inspired by Elwood and Jake to form a band, and asked Elwood to come listen. He agreed, and took off immediately. Paul Shaffer was from the original Blues Brothers band, but was unable to make the original movie. Here, he got to play alongside them at Queen Mousette's place. The battle of the bands included both the Blues Brothers and the Louisiana Gator Boys. If you look, that band includes Eric Clapton, BB King...... Sorry, if you'd seen the movie, I think you'd remember some of them.

Close enough! "Blues Brothers 2000."

The image will be titled SOMETHING. Sometimes it's a bunch of letters and numbers. Other times, it's something that gives away the movie. If you don't make sure the title doesn't give away the movie (changing it if necessary), then someone wandering in might see the title with the image, or in this case, instead of the image. I didn't "cheat". I read the thread and what was posted. George has admitted he forgot to change the title so he accidentally left the answer up. Nobody's perfect- I was warning George of his mistake after you got the right answer.

It's a LOT easier if you're logged off when you see the thread, and instead of the pic, the name of the movie and its year appear. But I would have remembered that scene between Spicoli, Mr Hand, and the class and pizza without trouble.

Aw. Condolences to Suda and the rest of his family.

Sounds a little like "Death Proof" but the details and year are different. I may never have heard of this movie.

Who the heck else was in that movie? Oh, yeah, the coach was John Goodman 11 Cloverfield Lane Mary Elizabeth Winstead
-
Whoops! I was sure nobody else remembered him!

(E) IS "The Price Is Right." Did you get it from the announcer's name or did you actually read and remember the splash page by number? What people guess on that show is PRICES.

Paul Shaffer Dan Ackroyd John Goodman John Popper Eric Clapton BB King

Paul Schaefer appears late in the movie. I would focus on remembering the other 2.

Ok, game shows. Name ANY game show correctly to take the round. A) This game show has overseas versions (UK, and Australia as well as a US version.) It's got loud, excited people answering questions and dropping balls down a giant board with prize amounts at the floor level. Players show up in teams of 2, with one person in isolation, answering questions, and the other, planning strategy, trying to maximize their gains while minimizing their losses. An option to blindly trade their winnings for an "insurance" amount gives even teams that got wiped out a chance to go home with some money, provided they chose the trade sight unseen. B) This series is a returned, older series. The players must work with giant decks of cards and predict whether the next card will be higher or lower than their current card (in addition to answering questions correctly about results of polls done before their episode.) C) This UK game show has been running for slightly over a decade, and is a current show. Comedians are generally the 4 contestants, and odd trivia come up all the time, by the host and the contestants. Points are rewarded for correct answers, but deducted for boring answers that are incorrect. Points are also awarded for interesting things that aren't the correct answer but seem related. Steven Frye was the original host, but Sandi Tosvig has been the host the past few years. D) This current game-show airs primarily on Netflix. It's been renewed for another season. Teams of 3 people try to cross a big room by hopping across the furniture and over obstacles. If they fall to the floor, they are eliminated for a very obvious reason- they "died" in the game. (They're shown as fine later in the show, but contestants like to react as if they really died.) That they "died" and why are very, very obvious for anyone watching the show. E) Shows with trivia can have appeal later if the trivia stays the same. Shows with strategies can have appeal later because strategies can remain the same. Drew Carey has revived a previous game-show with neither advantage, meaning the contestants must guess about something current that is NOT trivia. The original version of this show's announcer was Johnny Olsen. (IIRC, Avengers vol 1, #165 referenced this on its splash page.) F) One game-show was once the subject of a huge payout, once a contestant appeared who had memorized the movements of the electronic board from previous episodes. Newer versions of this show, including a current version, use smarter software that prevents this. You might only remember the little animated figures that show up when a player loses their cash. G) This is also a current game-show. Episode titles include: "You Better Run", "Every Second Counts," "Never Stop." The staff include:Atomic Ant , Banshee, Dynamite, Bulldog, Rocket, Beach Boy. This one is also loosely-based (or inspired by) a children's game.

The word "volcano" does not appear in the name of any of the answers. And (E) is well-known.
