*peeks into the thread cautiously* I'm not in favor of discussion by video link or otherwise, and prefer we discuss directly, but I know I'm in the minority there. As for oldiesman's link, it led to a page I, on the whole, didn't find particularly useful.....however, I followed a number of the links and found a single link that I found useful. https://viamedia.news/2023/09/20/jesus-did-not-call-a-woman-a-dog/ He takes a while to get there- it's a bit like reading one of my expository posts- but I thought the answer was good enough that it was work a link. I won't do the writer the injustice of quoting a relevant snippet because the journey was as much a part of the answer as the direct explanation. So, even I can make exceptions.

I could partly name which characters went in which order, but I can't match any of them to their code-names, except for the Bride whom you already named. I remember one objecting because SHE wanted to be "Black Mamba" instead. Let me know if you want me to try to name them- but I'd have to be flexible in HOW I named them, since I don't remember all their names.

The other movies? Well, this was the last, IIRC. The first was "the Wolf Man." LC Jr played Larry Talbot. Larry was attacked by a wolf that was later killed. That was a werewolf, and Larry was infected. Bela Lugosi played "Bela", a gypsy traveling through the area- who turned into a werewolf and attacked Larry. A sort-of sequel to that movie was "Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man." LC Jr as Larry Talbot, and Bela Lugosi as Frankenstein's Monster. Between the two movies was "The Ghost of Frankenstein." LC Jr as The Monster, BL as Ygor. There was a sort-of round robin of the actors in a number of roles across a decade or so.

"The same thing happened to me!" The Twilight Zone movie mentioned some troops shooting an officer dead "accidentally" in a "friendly fire" incident. The specifics are identical to the note at the end of "Stripes", where a character with the same name was said to have been killed by his soldiers in a "friendly fire" incident. (BTW, according to "Murphy's Laws of Combat", "Friendly fire- isn't." In "Animal House", John Belushi/Bluto came across a guy playing a guitar badly. He snatched the guitar, smashed it against the wall, then handed back the stick. "Sorry." In an episode of ST TNG, (Q pid), Geordi was trying to play a mandolin- and failing. Worf walked over to him and signaled him to pass over the mandolin. Worf smashed it against a tree, then handed back the stick. "Sorry." In "Brotherhood of the Wolf", very early in the movie, they're investigating a murder. It's believed to have been a wolf attack that killed someone. When the corpse is found, it's a young woman wearing a red cape. I've forgotten so many of these.

In case anyone is confused, I'd like to clarify. oldiesman confirmed there was a lawsuit that was filed. He did not confirm the lawsuit had merit or that it was factually correct. But, as a point of history, he confirmed that people were saying that at the time.

CORRECT! Glenn Strange returned to play Frankenstein's Monster (again.) BL and LC reprised their most famous roles in this movie. Nice little Vincent Price cameo, too.

BTW, every word I posted was correct, and I phrased myself carefully in both posts.

Thanks. I don't think I've ever heard of this band before.

`For the benefit of those of us who don't want to load a YouTube video just to get the title of a song, can someone actually post the answer?

In case you're wondering, I'm not aware of any animated or voice-work that unites the actors. This is solely about films where the cameras were pointed at both actors in the usual fashion.

I just checked. I can't find an "Abbott and Costello" film where Boris Karloff played Frankenstein's Monster. They did at least 2 movies with Boris Karloff, but in neither did BK play his most famous role. Of course, BK has nothing to do with the question that's currently up.

BZZT!!!! "Dracula Vs the Wolfman" was a 2024 movie. Both actors were long dead by then. "The Wolf Man Vs Dracula" was never filmed, but there were plans to cast both of them- but nothing definite. IIRC, there's at least 4 movies that fit the requirements of the question.

You should all at least know OF actor BELA LUGOSI, who was in many films. He was typecast- but played more than one role. You should all at least know OF actor LON CHANEY JR, who was in many films. He was typecast- but played more than one role. I'll divide this into an "EASY" a "MEDIUM", and a "HARD" answer. EASY- Name at least ONE movie where both actors appeared. MEDIUM- Name at least ONE movie where both actors appeared- and name their ROLES in that movie (Who did they play?_ HARD- Name at least THREE movies where both actors appeared, and for bragging rights, who they played in them. (For the curious, I can name two for sure off the top of my head, as well as who they played in each, and I think I could manage a third.)

Before my time. I would not have imagined it would have gone that way, based on the impressions I have of the different presidents. Then again, you miss a lot when you're looking only through a lens of history rather than living through it, and I never made a particular study of this, so my impressions are bound to be brief and inaccurate in a lot of ways.

So, it's George's turn.

The lines seem vaguely familiar, but I'm not hearing anything yet.

Was it LBJ?

The second line was very recognizable if you saw Superman II. The Kryptonian bad guys were about to betray/kill Lex Luthor, when Superman arrived. Lex: "Superman, thank God....I mean, GET HIM!" The first quote was from Young Frankenstein, where GH played the blind hermit. The monster ran off. GH improv'ed this line as the monster ran off. The crew had to struggle with laughing and ruining the take. The third quote was "Popeye" Doyle's last line in The French Connection.

Let's see how famous these lines are. "Wait! Where are you going? I was gonna make espresso!" "Thank God!... I mean, GET HIM!!" "That son of a bitch is here. I saw him. I'm gonna get him."

HAS to be "Dennis the Menace" in the show of the same name.

For the curious, I inserted the explanations in this reply.

Yes. That's everybody who ever played The Shadow, whether on the radio like Orson Welles or in the movies like Alec Baldwin.
