Yes, but last time was a few years ago, and you've missed it before. I was counting on it looking familiar but nothing more specific. Makes sense. So, George is up.

If those maps are correct, it's BEEN pointed west, but they keep predicting it will turn east and go up central Florida. If that's normally what happens, then it makes sense. Otherwise, it looks ready to hit the Emerald Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. Frankly, it might be pointed at New Orleans, but I'd need a bigger map to know.

We're Beatle fans (the Wolf family is, at least), but we, apparently, aren't hardcore enough to know the song you posted.

"When they came for me, I ran like a thief right into Grand Central Station. They trapped me in a pay toilet." "Beautiful." "Cost them four dollars in nickels to get me out." "I love a volunteer."

That's it. "Howard the Duck" + "Duck Soup." Victory is ours! Hail, hail Freedonia, land of the brave and free!

I'd like to see what visuals you're referencing. E.T. , Predator and Close Encounter greys have human and animal attributes? Which ones have the fur? Which ones have the feathers? Which ones have paws?

If you in particular are missing the first part, you're overthinking it. Anthropomorphic: having a form similar to human, with the implication that it's obviously not a person but something in the same basic, bipedal shape. This most common usage nowadays are in reference to "furry" characters, human-shaped with animal characteristics- like an animal-head or head resembling an animal (Mickey Mouse, the Thundercats, etc) and possibly other characteristics- fur, feathers, a tail, paws, etc.

Felt like reviving this thread. Besides, it was my turn last. In this movie comedy, an anthropomorphic alien finds himself stuck on Earth. He ends up caught in the middle of a war brewing between Freedonia (the good guys) and Sylvania (the bad guys.)

John Hurt had large roles in "From the Hip" (the second defendant in the movie, Douglas Benoit). "King Ralph" (Lord Percival Graves wanted the new king dethroned), and "V For Vendetta" (the British Prime Minister, and the TV spoofs of him.) In "Alien", he had a VERY memorable moment- which was spoofed in "Spaceballs" ("Oh, no, not again.") In the first HP movie, he played Ollivander, who sold Harry his wand.

YES.

That's it. Anthony Hopkins' "Dr Van Helsing" had some great lines.

Never saw the movie, but that's a neat moment.

No. Keep in mind that a successful movie often pairs the actor to the lines- you give Keanu the vapid ones, you give more accomplished actors the complex lines that are memorable. This isn't "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein", either.

"It is no laughing matter! We Draculs have a right to be proud! What devil or witch was ever so great as Atilla, whose blood flows in these veins? Blood... Is too precious a thing in these times. The war-like days are over. The victories of my great race are but a tale to be told. I am the last of my kind." "Listen to them: the children of the night. What sweet music they make." "There is much to be learned from beasts."

Some of the lines may remind you of it, but this is not that movie. Odd to say it with those lines, but this movie, in general, was NOT played for laughs.

Yes. Played Poirot in the most recent "Murder on the Orient Express", Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter 2, etc. Was getting ready to start running a long list of Shakespearean roles to accompany Iago and Benedick.

If none of the names in the last post didn't give it away (one would have for me, 2 would have for Mrs Wolf), then look over that list. At least 1 name off the last set should point you in the right direction.

Mrs Wolf got it from Wallander, but might have gotten it from Poirot. (Actually, I was surprised she didn't rattle it off from Poirot.) I might have gotten it from Dr Loveless.

That's why it's good to hear alternate points of view- sometimes what you don't see is more important than what you DO. In regards to the GSC: A) the regulars who post here spend a few minutes a week here. (Any spending more are socializing and that's not twi-related.) B) The vast majority of people who've posted here have moved on with their lives and don't even check in here any more. Some places consider that bad for the place. However, since the GSC is partly about helping people move on and prosper after surviving twi, we consider them SUCCESS STORIES. They moved on and spend zero minutes a week on twi. C) We STILL get new posters, so it's good to answer their questions and point to previous discussions on some of their questions. This helps them get to where they can move on.

We've all become God's Madmen. All of us." "I have crossed oceans of time to find you." "Our ways are not your ways. And to you there shall be many strange things." I... love you too much to condemn you." "I'm no lunatic man. I'm a sane man fighting for his soul." "Do you believe in destiny? That even the powers of time can be altered for a single purpose? That the luckiest man who walks upon this earth is the one who finds... True love?" "Absinthe is the aphrodisiac of the self. The green fairy who lives in the absinthe wants your soul. But you are safe with me." "Hear me out, young man. Lucy is not a random victim, attacked by mere accident, you understand? No. She is a willing recruit, a breathless follower, a wanton follower. I dare say, a devoted disciple." "Mr. Morris, your bullets will not harm him. He must be beheaded. I suggest that you use your big Bowie knife." "Well, I wasn't plan on getting that close, Doc." ""I want you to bring me, before nightfall, a set of postmortem knives." "An autopsy? On Lucy?" "No, no, no. Not exactly. I just want to cut off her head and take out her heart." "Was she in great pain?" "Yes, she was in great pain. Then we cut off her head, and drove a stake through her heart, and burned it, and then she found peace."

The movie "Van Helsing" was inspired by the original book, but, other than, say, Drac himself, did not feature the book's characters like Lucy.

"Whoa." (Actually, no actor said this in this movie.)
