That's correct, and that was John Lee Hooker doing a live recording of that song in that scene. The extended version includes him and a band member arguing over which of them wrote it.

For the curious, on that show, he played (of his named characters): Ralph Ramsey, Ben Benjamin, Freddie Fillmore, Dickie Davis, Henry the waiter, and Sergeant Nelson. (Unnamed characters were: Customs Officer, and Conductor.)

Can you remember SOMETHING beyond what Raf posted? She was neither the first nor last comedian for whom he served as a foil. He did, however, play at least 3 roles in the "I Love Lucy" show alone.

SS has credits as an actor in 13 movies. JLH has credit as an actor in exactly one movie. (Both according to IMDb.)

I only know her from Top Gun Val Kilmer Meg Ryan Joe Versus the Volcano

It would certainly be relevant to this round! :)

Looking for an actor. Freddie Fillmore Ralph Ramsey Dickie Davis AK Bailey Clifford Hastings Harry Frisby Aloysius Kilgallen Oliver Benson R.L. Nielson Rocky Stone Cecil B. Pomeroy Dr Pavlov You may have trouble remembering his name, but you'd recognize him by voice for certain, and probably by face. He's got a lot of roles with names like "Salesclerk" and the like, but no official name. I guarantee that if you heard him say a specific word, you'd remember him. And I would not accept "no" on that suggestion. Noo, I would not.

Forgot I was up. "If U didn't come 2 party, Don't bother knockin' on my door I got a lion in my pocket, And baby he's ready 2 roar."

The second half seems a very specific reference to "Ugly Betty." I don't know what to link it to-something ending in "Ugly" or something beginning with "Betty", but what?

This time, I do. One is the obvious other "Tim Burton" player. I'll use the other so we're not stuck with more Burton films. Anne Hathaway Get Smart Steve Carrell

Now I want to watch it this weekend... Haven't seen it for a long time, actually. Saw "Bananas" a lot more recently than that.

Couldn't link TO Kim Basinger from there, since you used her to link to LA Confidential. However, I could not CORRECTLY name anyone else from that movie. (Could have linked "John Larroquette" to a different movie.) No idea on Hal Holbrook.

Unless these are voice-actor roles, a big dude who could pass for Hercules or the Hulk. Out of those who played the Hulk, Lou Ferrigno did it non-CGI, so I'm going with "Lou Ferrigno."

IIRC (and I may not), the Politics forums exploded into existence when people felt the need to talk about 9/11 when it happened. (Makes sense to me.) It took on a life of its own after that. A mean, nasty, sectarian, ranting life of its own. The choice was to either discontinue the Politics forum, or discontinue the GSC. The GSC was not ABOUT Politics, and has existed before and after the Politics forum. There's LOTS of places to go online to talk (or rant) Politics. There's lots of places to go online and make your own forum (I've had one.) If one feels they just can't live without that, they have lots of options to exercise. As to slowed traffic on the GSC, I agree and I've said it before. In fact, I said it in 2007! "A number of people have arrived, interacted, decided they accomplished everything they needed to accomplish, and then left. A number of people have arrived, interacted, decided they didn't feel like sticking around anymore, and then left. In both cases, I say that's great! The first is a GSC success story. The second is a GSC'er thinking for themself. I miss some posters, but, you know, life takes time to do right." --------------------------- And in 2013, I said "As for GSC members, over time, they get on with their lives and find other things are more important-family, etc. That means fewer posters. Is that a bad thing? Not for the people who got on with their lives. They are GSC success stories!" --------------------------- "Like everyone else, my life has moved on since twi. (Especially lately.) I feel good about many posters who have moved on BECAUSE they've gone on with their lives. They're all GSC success stories! Those of us still posting all have lives as well, of course. I also hope that those still Christian, posting now or not, have found healthy Christians to interact with corporately to some degree, even online if necessary. (I hope all posters are moving on in healthy ways regardless of their belief systems, and that's probably true of almost all of them, past and present.) We post, hopefully, because we have something to say. Paw could always put the forums into an archive, read-only, mode if we all stopped having something to say. I'm hoping nobody's posting just to post, or to raise post-counts or something. I don't mind quieter days in between cycles. The threads with lots of posts and squabbling, were they really better than lulls in posting?" ------------------------- "I imagine that a few people out of hundreds were just posting to be political, but if it were more, then the successor political board would be pretty busy. But ex-twi boards of every kind all have dwindled, as did any twi boards. For the few who wanted to applaud twi, there was only so much to say before it was obvious there were only about a dozen posts to rehash, and everything was a variation of that. As for the GSC, it has existed to warn others about twi, and to help others survive twi. It has succeeded in both. Others don't fall for twi's deception and traps- partly because of the GSC, partly for several other reasons. As for survival and recovery, well, duh. Most people who have posted on the GSC post-twi have recovered and gone on with their lives. So, they have families, they have kids, they have churches, they have outside interests which are relevant to their present. That leaves them with less time to post here. I wish a few of them would post more, but in general, I say it's great because they are all twi success stories. Ok, a few ex-posters are not because twi is still in them even if they are not in twi, and a few ex-posters were here because they wanted to argue, or troll the board, or say how terrible we are to warn people about twi or for ever being Christians or any other pet cause they have to attack people (including, I imagine, political ones.) However, ALL messageboards have that. All groups eventually have someone there who has no real reason to be THERE other than "You haven't kicked me out." All messageboards have to deal with contentionm rudeness and flamewars. Since almost every poster who ever did that has moved on as well, there's an absence of flamewars as well. Some people can consider that for a bad thing-I do not. I think important things get lost among those." ------------------------------- And in 2014 I said "I consider everybody who survived twi, then visited the GSC for a time without becoming members of twi again or members of splinter groups formed and run by ex-twi leaders to be GSC SUCCESS STORIES. We don't hear from most of them, but that doesn't take away from their SUCCESS at making and living their lives without twi in major or minor forms. So, congratulations." ------------------------- Perhaps, if we want to really increase posting, we need another national disaster like 9/11. That really multiplied the posting. That having been said, I'd really rather NOT have the traffic increase if that's the reason.

Dixieland in a movie that wasn't written specifically for New Orleans. That HAS to limit the number of suspects a lot. I can name 2 movies that SHOULD have Dixieland and both were there. Futuristic with Dixieland? *looks around* Ok, I can hear some Dixieland horns in my head, from a scene that involved a potential "big meal" with some big food. Was this "Sleeper"?

Back before Tim Drake got his own comic, they tested out a miniseries for him (then another, then another.) In the first one, he completed his combat training, and defeated Sir Edmund Dorrance ("King Snake.") In the 2nd series, he went up solo against the Joker and won. In the letter columns, the fans reacted. "Who's he going to face in the next miniseries-Doomsday?" (Superman's "killer".) Yeah, the excessive melodrama is a weakness of the writers. Would prefer a few geek writers with a background in science and fewer in melodrama (although at least one MUST write Cisco's lines in "Flash.") But with no melodrama in LoT, the series would have lost a full episode's worth of dialogue. BTW, Curtis seems to be convinced he's not in the same "weight-class" as the other 2 in regards to hacking.

He's talking about the level of the threats. Arrow was at the level of the Bat-Family (Batman, Robin, Nightwing, etc.) and lately it's looking more towards the Super-Family (Superman, Supergirl, Krypto, etc.) The street-level, non-powered stuff where the here MIGHT save a city but usually does so by cleaning the streets each night, rather than "the world will be destroyed if we fail." At worst, Starling would have been destroyed and the survivors relocated to Midway, Opal, Central, Keystone, Hub, St Roche, etc. Continuing to re-power Dahrk returns the "kills with a gesture, bulletproof" thing, threatening to destroy the planet raises the stakes high for an athlete who punches people out or shoots them with arrows.

I have the cartoon here. I wasn't sure it was worth watching...

I had actually found a SIXTH, but it was a LOT more obscure than the others. The whole thing was an accident. I was looking for movies to link with the animated one, and found a bunch of movies titled identically. My sanity had stepped outside for some fresh air, so I gave it a shot.

That is correct.
