  1. The Brown Hornet! No, he never got his own movie.
  2. See, T-Bone, that's a fundamental difference in your systems. Raf's going "Genesis is unreliable, I don't trust the Bible. Therefore, the Bible's not from God, and since the Bible's not from God, there's no God, and since there's no God, but we exist, we exist without having been created, and the universe exists without having been created. It all goes back to Genesis. Your approach sounds like it looks at the universe, and dismisses the idea that the universe couldn't have been created, so there was a Creator that created it, and so on. (I could be wrong, that might not be your approach.) So, you're both focusing on different things. Since this thread's specifically about Genesis, a discussion on the science would most likely be a very poor fit.
  3. Housing advice from lcm.... Housing advice from a man who never paid rent? lcm went from his parents' home to university, where he was an athlete. Athletes are considered prime candidates for some fraternities with a house. Athletes are definitely put on the priority list for dorms from the school. So, lcm almost certainly lived in the dorms, unless he lived in a frat house. I can easily see him hanging out with athletes in a drinking frat. After university, he went straight into twi, where housing was provided- although he "could stay as long as his money holds". So, lcm lived in his parent's home, then college, then twi provided a place of one form or another, including stealing the Corps Chalet from the group, renaming it the President's Home, and letting him live there rent-free. lcm was pushed out of twi and relocated to a house- again, owned by twi where he probably lives rent-free (he's not telling.) So, this is the man who was giving advice about how owning a house is bad. Yeah, Rosa-lie sure has been suffering with her house, hasn't she? Especially with twi people performing maintenance on it for free and everything...
  4. "In October of 1994 three student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary...A year later their footage was found." The success of this indie film-which began on a shoestring budget- inspired a number of other "found footage" movies in the decade that followed. LDP plays the street-punk in the class. He gets all the good lines that EJO/Jaime Escalante doesn't get. Thanks for the kind words.
  5. Hold on to your hats. This is a FOUR-parter movie, with 4 different titles properly linked. Recovered film footage from 3 missing persons revealed a hideous secret- a military project has been subjecting chimpanzees to horrible experiments in order to come up with a cure for humanity's mutations. The footage eventually ends up being used by a teacher hoping to inspire his students to excel through hard work and passing an Advanced Placement exam. Stars include Matthew Broderick,Helen Hunt, Patrick Stewart, Ian Mc Kellen, Andy Garcia, Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond-Phillips.
  6. That's it. I was about to post about the black chicken out of frustration. "Come back, black chicken! At least leave us an egg or something!"
  7. You're probably stuck because you presumed it began with "men" and you had too short a name for the 3rd, the 1 about the cure.
  8. It's all movies. Very few movies are in the "found footage" category. Only 1, AFAIK, involves 3 missing persons. It's fairly well-known, if not a blockbuster.
  9. Invalid leap, still at Cuba Gooding Jr

  11. Isabel Sanford Sherman Hemsley Arte Johnson Dick Shawn Richard Benjamin Susan Saint James George Hamilton The DVD version removes "I Love the Nightlife" from the disco scene. How dare they? Wikipedia has this film in the following categories (among others): 1979 films 1970s romantic comedy films American comedy horror films Films set in New York City parody films One line was "What was that idiot drinking? It tastes like the Volga River at low tide!" But the Volga River does not experience tides, neither high nor low. "It's OK- I'm a doctor!" How many movies use a Star of David as a prop in a joke?
  12. "Hold it! You'd never last five minutes in a New York subway!" *WHAM* *WHAM* "Now, THAT's how it's done!" "I'm saying that if CBS was there, we would have 'made' Sports Spectacular!" "What-you wanna do it again?" "I'll be d*ed-a Kojak with a Kodak!" "Headquarters, we are still in pursuit of the black Lamborghini." "Car 42, you've been in pursuit for 2 hours. Another 5 minutes and you'll be in Arizona." "Yeah, and we're gonna STAY in pursuit until we catch them." "It didn't take us that long to catch DILLINGER." "Might be easier with your lights on." "Why advertise?" "Why'd he call me Shorty?" "'Cause you're small. Small. S - M - all." "What about a black Trans-Am? No, that's been done!" "Come on! 1000 miles on one wheel? We're trying to win a race, not set a record!" "I'm sure that doctor's a very sweet man, basically." "Oh, thank you." "But don't you ever tell me where you found him. Ever." "I'm Nikolas Van Helsing, professor of proctology and other related tendencies. A graduate of the University of Rangoon. And assorted night classes at the Knoxville Tennessee school of faith healing." "You may be a little over qualified for this job." "Pull over! We want to give you our blessing!" "J.J., there are two priests in that car. They want us to pull over." "Victor, that's two priests driving a Ferrari. When's the last time you saw two priests drive a Ferrari? What are they doing, taking home the bingo money?" "No, they're doing the work of the Lord. In a Ferrari, they can just do it faster." "You all right, Victor?" "Oh, I'm fine, J.J. It only hurts when I point." "Step back, my dear. I must warn you, I'm Roger Moore!" "Who?" "Roger Moore!" " I just want to thank you for informin' them about us back in Missouri. You know, how we're flashers and sex maniacs." "Well, I was just repayin' you for what you and the chocolate monk did back in Ohio." "Chocolate Monk?" "He can say that. Yeah, he can say that, 'cause he's ridin' around with The GoodYear Blimp!" "He can say that. He can say that, 'cause if I had the time, I'd take those rosary beads and shove em up your nose." "These rosary beads? Up this nose?" "Yeah." "Will ya take a little advice? Bring friends." "Ha! Lots of em." "What are you, some kind of nut? Who do you think you are?" "Da-dum-duuummmm! I, am Captain Chaos! And this, this is my faithful companion, Cato... Say hello, Cato!" "Been a cop long?" "I'd like to welcome you all to an event that's sometimes been called the Automotive counterpart to the Bay of Pigs." " Isn't that J.J. McClure?" "He's nothing. Don't worry about him. It's the Blimp next to him! The Blimp! When he puts on that mask, he'll blow your g#d# doors off!" "Jamie Blake! Yeah, you used to drive that Formula One. When high-buttoned shoes were in style!" "You are certainly the most distinguished group of highway scofflaws and degenerates ever gathered together in one place." "Of course you know certain sceptics note that perhaps 10,000 of the nations's most elite highway patrolmen are out there waiting for us after we start, but let's stay positively: Think of the fact that there's not one state in the 50 that has the death penalty for speeding... although I'm not so sure about Ohio."

  14. I suppose this was "the Devil's Advocate."

  18. Metaphor- not literally true to fact, comparing one thing to another This didn't suggest they are those people, just similar to them in at least one way. Not literally the guy, but with at least one similarity. The CONTEXT set the meaning rather clearly. Not literally him, but with at least one similarity. We're not going to try to dress like them, and I'm certainly not going to grow Tory's beat-chin hair.
