Is this one of the "Pink Panther" movies like "Curse of the Pink Panther" or something?

It wasn't? *checks* http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473075/?ref_=nv_sr_1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_of_Persia:_The_Sands_of_Time_(film) Sure looks like the subtitle was part of the official name as well as the advertising for the movie. It's on the theatrical release poster. "Star Trek"(2009) is also known as "Star Trek: the Future Begins", and that's even in the theatrical release poster, but is not written to indicate that was the official release title. IMdB lists it as "Star Trek"(2009). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0796366/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 So, "POP-Sands of Time" may not have been best known by that name, but then "Scott Pilgrim" is remembered more as "Scott Pilgrim" and not as "Scott Pilgrim Saves the World." Doesn't change the name, however. The Powers That Be were hoping to make a movie franchise of POP, so they were clear from the beginning they wanted the movies to have different names. If "Pirates of the Carribbean: the Curse of the Black Pearl" had been the end of that franchise, few would remember it has a subtitle as well. Anyway, I think someone can name the entire thing now.....

Seems people want to discuss vpw's supposed "keys to walking by the spirit", but nobody wants to make a thread about them. So, here it is. I've heard before that some are common-sense, and some are just plain wrong, and some are at least questionable. I FIRST heard a doubt about it way back when. Shortly after the big split of 1989-1990, where lcm got 80% of the members to get up and leave, and most did so while still buying everything vpw ever said. I was trying to use one, and it was getting me nowhere despite me doing what it said. A more veteran "twig coordinator" who was an Advanced class grad mentioned he'd had misgivings about how accurate some of them were. He was right, my life got better as soon as I stopped trying to follow that one.

Right so far. What would you call the man who might eventually become king of the place?

Kate Beckinsale Underworld Bill Nighy

Jake's actually been in a LOT of stuff in the past 10 years. Something like that may be in the middle. Meanwhile, what would you call a potential future king of ancient Iran? Whether or not you were a videogame fan?

Is this a Before-And-After on the Movie Mashup thread? (Any movie, any type of clue, others must guess its name.)

It might, but the melody is completely wrong for them. I actually considered one of theirs first, but thought nobody would recognize even their biggest hits. "It was a slow day. And the sun was beating On the soldiers by the side of the road. There was a bright light. A shattering of shop windows The bomb in the baby carriage Was wired to the radio." "It was a dry wind And it swept across the desert And it curled into the circle of birth. And the dead sand Falling on the children The mothers and the fathers And the automatic earth." "It's a turn-around jump shot It's everybody jump start It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts. Medicine is magical and magical is art"

Another triple. In this 2010 movie, a writer builds a time machine and travels into the past, chasing a contemporary serial killer who fled to ancient Iran. There they clash with each other and a potential future king over a special knife containing magical sand as well as ownership of the time machine, for their similar properties. His job becomes more difficult when an officer for a security agency kick-boxes his way into that time and place, trying to end damage to the timeline. Stars include Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Ben Kingsley, Alfred Molina, Malcolm Mc Dowell, Mary Steenburgen, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Mia Sara, and Ron Silver.

Was this the "Incredible Hulk" show from the 70s?

I have trouble taking "experts" seriously when they can write that with a straight face. That reminds me, was this the question you thought I didn't address earlier in the thread? I did my best to cover everything you MIGHT have meant, and you said I still hadn't answered it. In other news, the simplest way to read this is that the prophecy was given at that time when addressing those people specifically, since they were the intended audience. And that he spoke truly, but they "heard" that realpolitik strategy was to kill Jesus to keep the Romans off their backs. So, the Sanhedrin got what they thought was exactly what they wanted to hear.

The blatant plagiarism of vpw, who claimed all his teachings were based on enlightenment from God Almighty rather than plagiarized books from many authors, that has been documented in detail here. Questions- BG Leonard Help! The PFAL class was stolen JE Stiles the Gift of the Holy Spirit vpw's plagiarized sources vpw on the sources of his books vp plagiarism documentation Among other threads.

Actually, you know the 2nd and 3rd parts of the answer. If you were more up on video games, the first part might be easy to answer.

Another triple. In this movie, a writer builds a time machine and travels into the past, chasing a contemporary serial killer who fled to ancient Arabia. There they clash over a special knife containing magical sand as well as ownership of the time machine, for their similar abilities. His job becomes more difficult when an officer for a security agency shows up, trying to end damage to the timeline.

OK. The last one didn't load for me. I should recognize 2, I don't recognize him or 3. But Geena Davis is hard to miss. Let's see.... Geena Davis A League of their Own Madonna

I'm still playing. I'm clueless, but still playing.

Can only be "Mister Ed Wood." I still love one description of "Plan 9 From Outer Space." There was 1 sentence describing the plot. The next sentence said "You'll think you walked in late and missed something important."

I take it the talking horse DIRECTED the worst movie ever, as well...

I've got a "Will Robinson" from "Lost in Space" (probably the show, not the movie) and a Reverend Whirley from the "Dragnet" movie, but I don't know if it's the same character mentioned here. I have no idea who played either, but it's possible one character played both.

vpw referred to different incidents at different times. vpw had a fascinating life with many miracles- whenever none of us were around. Whenever there were reliable witnesses, pfft! There was some other account in some class where, apparently, he claimed he was dealing with some devil-spirit, and kept asking it its name, ("Name yourself") and it kept saying "No, no, no." He said he finally got revelation that its name was "No." My reaction on reading that account was: -------------------------- "The spirit's name was "No!" Well, that sure explains a lot.... Whenever I meet these chicks, & I try to get their names, they also reply "No!" They must be possessed by that spirit! He must work out of singles bars! He works alongside "don't even bother"." ------------------------- (In case it's not obvious, I didn't/don't frequent singles bars, that was a joke.) "Advanced Class Tidbits" is in the "Twi discussions-Archive" section. Post 23 was the account. My response was a few posts down but I reposted the funny part. All kidding aside, if we were to imagine his account was a real account, vpw was crap at this "dealing with devil-spirits" thing from the get-go. His APPROACH was incorrect. It was organized for maximum cheese and drama, and minimum success. Think about it- who, historically, was the best performer in the "dealing with devil-spirits" category? JC himself. What did he do? In ONE incident, he asked for a name. In ALL THE OTHER incidents, there was no ceremony. He not only didn't ask them for a name, he FORBADE THEM TO SPEAK, and cast them out without any stage-dressing. No art to it, no dramatalurgical appeal. He ordered them to be silent, and he ordered them to leave. That's all we've got. But people tend to remember the ONE incident and forget ALL THE OTHERS. Why would a self-proclaimed Bible teacher forget about all the others, especially when teaching on a subject or carrying out the directives on a subject? My thinking is that, once again, he saw somebody claim to cast out devils in a big, dramatic show, and he claimed he was the one who did it and recounted some of the highlights that stayed with him. vpw's standard operating procedure was to do that- observe what others did, draw from the most dramatic parts, then claim it was him all along. For his purposes, the more obscure the source, the better, because it was LESS likely that he'd be caught ripping them off. Although, naturally, he had obviations to cover when he was caught. "This guy writes like you teach." "Where he taught error, I got out the error." "He was good with experience but not with The Word." etc, etc. And there are people who still FALL for this stuff! The man's been caught, beyond any REASONABLE doubt, ripping off the accounts of others, even when he misunderstood them or they didn't make sense! But those determined to NOT see it will not, those determined to make a patron saint of the man will say it was good that he did it, and we're evil for pointing out he was a thief, a plagiarist, a liar, a sybarite, a rapist, a molester, a simonist...

Correct! Who's name made it too easy?

I either heard him use something LIKE this once, or I heard him use this one once. What I heard was him on a recording, complete with soft mood music in the background while he spoke. In hindsight, it was completely contrary to his usual style, and it's now obvious WHY it sounded nothing like him. He was just an actor reciting a script the way the previous actor had recited the lines.
