In this fairly recent movie, a dark spirit launches an assault on Earth and the universe. Legends unite to face him locally while criminals and misfits unite to stop him in space.

Not exactly. Since the Politics forum was cancelled due to being a strain on the Admin/site owner, politics are forbidden to discuss. That having been said, some people would take the lyrics you posted and start from there in making some sort of political diatribe. (I.e, characters on the dole/on welfare, etc.) In other news, no idea about the current song.

Cheated also. I've never heard of the first movie, sorry. That Jeff Bridges has sure been in a lot of stuff. I'd never heard of him before "TRON" and he'd been busy by then.

Arlo's most-recognized song is "Alice's Restaurant" in any of its variations. Since it was never released as a single, Billboard doesn't count it. They count "City of New Orleans" as his sole hit single. Wikipedia notes he had some success with "Coming into Los Angeles" and with "the Motorcycle Song." My usual standard for this is AIRPLAY. I've loved a lot of songs that never got airplay, so I consider them unfair to post. I've barely ever heard "City of New Orleans" and couldn't recognize the other 2 songs, and I can probably recite at least 1 version of "Alice's Restaurant." I don't know about anyone else.

Was this "TRON"?

The rest of us are curious. If you don't want us all cheating and disqualifying, we'll need more info.

Hm. Is that why there were procedures for when an indentured servant had completed his term of indenture, and decided to extend his term to the rest of his life, becoming a slave after having spent years working under that person already?

Ok, if nobody's already hit 'add reply' before I do on the last one, we go from Animal House to John Belushi to Blues Brothers Frank Oz Trading Places

Hm, same thing happened to Raf....

Deleted- George beat me by a few minutes. I think the post didn't appear instantly, though...

Which means it's Human's turn.

DING! George was correct!

In this movie, a teenager flunks his driving test and goes out for a wild time anyway- and is sought by another high schooler as a replacement date for her prom. Stars Corey Haim and Corey Feldman, Carol Kane, Heather Graham, Melissa Joan Hart, Stephen Collins, Adrian Grenier, and Ali Larter. Part of the title was changed when a Britney Spears song was added to the soundtrack, and 2 actors (Melissa and Adrian) appeared in the video of the song to cross-promote and increase name recognition for the movie and the song.

In the 70s, I read the Mad Magazine spoof of it. A running gag was to rag on how boring it was, or the titular character was. ("The Duke of Nytol"?)

Nowadays, the tickets cost a lot more in the theaters. And that doesn't count DVD sales, Pay-Per-View, and syndication payments for networks to air them. Nor the overseas markets. If a film nowadays makes $15M domestically at the box office, it's a tiny indie film made for reasons other than making money (like impressing judges at Cannes or Sundance and generating buzz for the director.) By contrast, the Blair Witch Project made that in the first 3 weeks only counting the US box office. (And progressively more in the 16 weeks that followed.)

Barney Miller. The show has people, all the time, in the police station. The police have them sit down, fill out reports and papers, and so on. The average day of police work is more of that and less "rescue the hostages", for which I am thankful to [name redacted]. The cryptic comments were a reference to the spinoff- Abe Vigoda as "FISH." More than once, Abe Vigoda's been incorrectly announced as dead. Over the DECADES. Raf's turn!

I forgot I was up. Feel free if you're ready.

Yes. At least as of this posting.

It is definitely not any form of "reality"/camera show. It was definitely scripted. And it had a spin-off.

This show has often been cited as the "most realistic" cop show- the show the police have said-more than once- best reflects the average day of a police officer.

The Proclaimers got their break on the "BENNY AND JOON" soundtrack after one actor (actress?) kept playing their stuff during filming.

...starting primarily with "Scream."
