  1. Well, you got caught with a flat. Well, how about that? Well babies, don't you panic. By the light of the night it'll all seem all right. I'll get you a satanic mechanic!"
  2. Different tropical fruit. ;) Ok, let me think....
  3. It's obviously "PINEAPPLES". Ok, now I need to come up with one....
  4. I think the correct title is "Lara Croft: Tomb Raiders of the Lost Ark."
  5. "A friend of mine got married recently. I couldn't make the wedding, but he filmed it and showed me the film afterwards, and d*ed if MICHAEL CAINE wasn't in it! I mean this guy..."
  6. "My name is Robert Hawkins. It's 6:42 AM on Saturday, May 23rd. Approximately seven hours ago, some... thing attacked the city. I don't know what it is. If you found this tape, I mean if you're watching this right now, then you probably know more about it than I do. Whatever it is, it killed my brother Jason Hawkins, it killed my best friend Hudson Platt and Marlena Diamond, and many many others. We've crashed into Central Park and we've taken shelter underneath this bridge. The military has begun bombing the creature and we're caught in the middle. Okay, ready? It's okay." "I don't know what to say." "Just tell them who you are." "My name is Elizabeth McIntyre. I don't know why this is happening. And we're going to wait here until this passes." "Okay, just to be clear here, our options are: die here, die in the tunnels, or die in the streets. That pretty much it?" "Yeah... that's pretty much it."[/b} "Listen, we need your help. Our friend, she's hurt, she's trapped in her building right by here. Colombus Circle?" "That is not where you want to be right now." "Do you guys know what it is, out there? Do you know what that thing is?" "There ain't nobody telling me. Whatever it is, it's winning." "Ocean is big, dude. All I'm saying is a couple of years ago, they found a fish in Madagascar that they thought been extinct for centuries." "So what? Its been down here all this time and nobody noticed?" "Sure. Maybe it erupted from an ocean trench, you know? Or a crevasse. Crevice. It's just a theory. I mean, for all we know, it's from another planet and it flew here."
  7. No, but you have the feel of the movie correct. BTW, congrats on the Series win.
  8. YES. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face-Off_(1971_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face/Off https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_Off_(TV_series)
  9. Stand and Deliver Edward James Olmos Blade Runner
  10. Ok, got another stealth triple. In this TV-movie, a domestic terrorist and sociopath targets the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team. An FBI Special Agent, desperate to catch him, enlists the aid of a panel of prosthetic makeup artists, who compete to see who is the best-qualified to help him disguise himself as and impersonate a rookie on the team. Stars include Art Hindle, John Vernon, John Travolta, and Nicolas Cage.
  11. There's 2 movies and one TV show. The show has nothing to do with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

  13. Do you think it was all about covering his tracks? I think it totally was about covering his tracks, but I also think, having seen his comments when he was alone- that vpw even convinced HIMSELF that all of that was connected- that he really convinced himself of his hearing voices and seeing imaginary snowstorms- and didn't really remember that without Leonard, there would have been no class at all. I think he overwrote his own memory, making it easier to lie to others because that's how he actually remembered it. This also benefited the narcissist because he was able to convince HIMSELF he was some great one, which is one thing he wanted all along!
  14. Yes. Then again, vpw claimed that he'd never taken an aspirin in his life and hadn't taken a sick day in his life- and that was in private! So, small wonder he lied about money.
  15. This IS "the Avengers". Or "Bowler hat and leather boots", or "With Umbrella, Charm and Bowler Hat" or "A Revolver and a Bowler Hat", depending on which language you used to watch the show. John Steed worked alongside several partners, including Emma Peel and Tara King.
  16. This show's original run covered the 60s in its entirety- but the syndication only covered the later part of the 60s. Decisions to end syndication by the networks signaled the end of the series because that crippled the show's budget. It featured 2 main characters- which ones changed as the series progressed. Its greatest successes where when it was treated as a light comedy and not a serious show of any kind, and they freely adapted old episodes and old movies for plots-which worked for them. At one point, Pierre Cardin was designing for both main characters. The French title for the series mentions leather boots, the Polish one mentions a revolver (both of one character) while both also mention the hat worn by the other character.

  18. Good quotes, both from "Austin Powers- International Man of Mystery." In fact, the latter is probably my favorite quote from the movie.
  19. The main characters now are Character A and Character B. Now, they're Character B and Character C. Now, they're Character B and Character H. (That type of thing, with 2 leading roles at a time.)

  21. Are you kidding? I just showed Mrs Wolf some drawings of Ra's (from the "Legacy" storyline), and she agreed that Siddig had it down except for the chin-hair. Frankly, if someone told me Siddig had sat and posed for reference drawings of Ra's for that storyline (the only Ra;s stuff I have handy), I would totally believe it. He has the hair down to a tee,and his facial structure and skin tone are a match. I even think Ra's should sound either Middle Eastern or British, depending on the interpretation.
