Colonel Brandon Franz Mesmer Grigori Rasputin

We all knew not to trust hank Henshaw. It really surprised me to see the secret he was hiding. Considering he was "the cyborg Superman" during "Reign of the Supermen", this was really a complete shocker. Making Maxwell Lord a tech genius works, but it's a little lazy, IMHO. He's supposed to be another media genius who HIRES all the techs. I guess there's only room for ONE media darling- but it would have been interesting to see Cat Grant and Max Lord marshall their media muscle and rattle their sabers at each other.

I remember reading somewhere that the hippies in different areas were good targets in their time because they were unusually gullible and easy to draw into sects and cults and stuff. Whether or not that's true, young folks are generally more gullible and easier to draw into sects and cults and stuff. (Unless someone can bullseye a "midlife crisis".) twi has absolutely nothing to draw youngsters, and increasingly is a group of older, greying adherents. Any youths they have generally grew up there. Eventually, the whole group will just die out. CFF, for all its flaws, put together something to draw gullible youths, so if they have actual growth, it's not that surprising.

Ok, that's *pictures the actor* What's his name...Michael Douglas?

Yes-I've about 15 minutes of the last episode left, "Blood Bond." That's a 2016 episode. Nice surprises about the guests in previous episodes- the RT and seeing John show up.

Obviously the funniest moment in "Marvel's Avengers." (To avoid confusion with the British thing.) "Greed, for lack of a better word, is good."

When Mythbusters tested this, they isolated all the variables, leaving only 4 things to test and compare- everything else was identical. They tested affirmative, positive speech, angry, insulting speech, classical music, and death-metal. The best growth of the 4 was for the DEATH METAL. The second was the classical music, the third was the insulting speech. (IIRC, the positive speech was still an improvement over silence.) If any conclusion could be drawn from that, it would be that, in that experiment, it was demonstrated that the higher the VOLUME, the greater the enhancement of growth of plants, and the lower the volume, the less the enhancement of growth of plants, and the CONTENT meant NOTHING. That's not the end of all experimentation, but they had both clear results and success isolating the variables so it can't fairly be said that they could have resulted from something else.

That's it. Surprising he's gone so young. Then again, for show biz, he made it to an older age. Getting OFF the drugs meant he survived longer than he might have. A different surprise was discovering how many albums he made in the last 2 decades that I heard nothing about.

"They got a message from the Action Man "I'm happy. Hope you're happy, too. I've loved. All I've needed: love. Sordid details following." " "We know Major Tom's a junkie. Strung out in heaven's high Hitting an all-time low." "My mama said, "To get things done You'd better not mess with Major Tom."

That's it.

That's it.

"I'm you're number one fan."

Ok, Mrs Wolf suggested this link. Rich Mr. Dashwood dies. A boy is able to communicate with him- a good thing for Dashwood, since he's left his second wife and his daughters poor by the rules of inheritance. A disheartened Child Psychologist tries to help the boy.

Dogma Karate Kid (Macchio/Morita)

Ok, that was obviously the "Black Eyed Peas". The song was "Pump It", which uses the baseline from "Miserlu." Next song. "They got a message from the Action Man "I'm happy. Hope you're happy, too. I've loved. All I've needed: love. Sordid details following." "

Let's be a sport.

Catwoman Ben Bratt Demolition Man

*lightbulb* "Rhythm of the Night." Was that El de Barge?

Ok, that was "GONE IN 60 SECONDS."

*wild swing* "I Love You, Philip Morris" ?

*wild swing* "Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou?"

It's Summer, so I'll be out of reach til Monday. You can wait for me or work some things out, depending on the thread. As for this thread, consider me vanished in the next minute.

1."Hello, and welcome to "TV Car Trivia!" First question, who was the driver of a '73 Firebird?

Sway, how about giving us the Bill Bixby trifecta?" 3."Drove a Corvette in "The Magician", a Ford pickup truck in "The Incredible Hulk", and in "The Courtship of Eddie's Father", he walked. " This remake did well enough in the box office, but I can't help think part of that was due to the advertising. One supporting character was made to look like a main character with most of the screen-time. This is one of the appearances in media of the "coroner with an iron stomach" type of thing. When one character answers the phone, he's at work in a crematorium. He puts down his sandwich- on the corpse- to answer the phone. "If his unpleasant wounding has in some way enlightened the rest of you as to the grim finish beneath the glossy veneer of criminal life, then his injuries carry with it an inherent nobility, and a supreme glory. We should all be so fortunate. You say 'poor Toby'? I say 'poor us'. " Cast includes Delroy Lindo, Christopher Eccleston, Giovanni Ribisi, Arye Gross, Robert Duvall, Angelina Jolie, and Nicolas Cage. "You ever feel bad about any of this?" "Hell, no. I'm Robin Hood, man. I rob from the rich and give to the needy." "You mean the poor." "No, like I said, the needy. 'Cause brother, we need this car." 1."Hey, man, that was as easy as pie!" 2."I'm a veteran, son." 3."Get outta the car, b*, or I'm gonna blow your brains out!" 2."You gotta be sh*ing me..." 3."Do I have shoot you, d* it?" *WHAM* 3."D*!" 2.*WHAM*"You lazy, half-@$$ bully! Any @$$h* can pull a gun on somebody! You don't know the first thing about stealing a car! Boy! You need a role model!" "Without disappointment you cannot appreciate victory." "Did Eleanor tell you that?" "Don't touch nothing! You can't negotiate turns. You can't signal properly. You can't maintain speed. You can't parallel park. Hell, you can't drive, honey. Sh*, I can't swim, I know I can't. So you know what I do? I stay my black @$$ out the pool!" "Air One. we're over the pursuit." "Suspect has increased speed to 120." "Maintain visual, Air One."

Two, you lie, you accept the job, you run, I hunt you down, I kill you, I kill your brother, and I kill your mother for the aggravation you cause me. Three, you accept the job, you steal some cars, you make some money, and you be a big brother. 8 a.m. Friday Morning. The cars are on the boat, or your brother's in the coffin."

"He chose poorly."

I've missed the entire "magic artifacts" genre. Is #3 "Burn Notice"?
