All right, another (proper) TRIPLE. With a crew of astronauts in danger, one astronaut's young teen daughter wishes to escape the bad news with a wish to be an adult. She travels to Alaska- and an entire gang of vampires attacks her town during a full month of Alaskan darkness.

That's it. "Underworld" made the feuding families vampires and werewolves, and "West Side Story" made them Irish and Latino gangs. And so on.

No, there's a rather specific, rather famous, story that's the ur-example of the story that the others I mentioned are based on.

There are claims that there's only a few original stories/movies out there. If that's true, then, if you've seen the vampires vs werewolves movies, or the musical with the gangs, then you might as well have seen this movie, any version by any director. What is the "original" movie?

I hope he goes soon. I liked "NNTN" and could have gotten it from the reference to Rich Hall's "Sniglets" segment.

"Enter the Dragonball Z"? Or "Enter the Dragonball Z Kai" depending on the edition....

Shelly Duvall Popeye Ray Walston

No he doesn't. You missed this thread:

The sad thing about lcm... As you say, vpw cared so long as lcm's money held- and said so. lcm was a resource to be exploited, no more. The technique for exploiting him was deception- convincing lcm that vpw was some great one and that God Almighty communicated through him like nobody else for the past 2000 years. (It worked-some people are STILL buying it even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.) So, vpw KNEW he himself was a fraud, so he knew which risks he wanted to take, how far to push his rubes, etc. lcm thought it was all REAL. So, when he got the big chair, lcm thought he inherited some special connection to God Almighty and that his passing thoughts came directly from God Almighty. So, he would have an impulse to do something and just made it a policy without ever checking if it was sensible. So, the longer lcm sat in the big chair, the more stupid decisions he made, and the more he inadvertently dismantled twi by helping people realize he had no freaking clue what he was doing when he was there. It wasn't just that lcm was that stupid- he was that stupid AND he was that conned. vpw conned lcm so completely, in part, because of his own insecurities and need to be worshipped.

I thought it was a Baldwin. I may be wrong.

Yes. The newer thing had music?

Why Do We Treat Animals Like Animals? Talk to the Animals I've Never Seen Anything Like It

It had decoder rings, and someone once said they were nicer than many of the onscreen props...

"Back to the Future." (Cameo by Huey Lewis.) And yes, you can't do what Marty did with that guitar with the reverb and stuff, but it was a funny moment anyway. Why Do We Treat Animals Like Animals?

That's the movie(s).

"I, Edward Norton, Ranger Third Class in the Captain Video Ranger Academy, do solemnly pledge to obey my mommy and daddy, to be kind to dumb animals and old ladies in and out of space, not to tease my little brothers and sisters and to brush my teeth twice a day and drink milk after every meal." That's it.

I suspect I should begin basing passwords on that teen movie, considering how people here never seem to have heard of it no matter how often I bring it up. Anything with amnesia properties like that has potential....

I suspect at least the name is known to you.

No.

This series ran for about 6 years (plus a short sequel.) Its writers included Jack Vance, Arthur C. Clarke Damon Knight, and Isaac Asimov. It was NOT an anthology, it was a more conventional series instead. (We saw the same characters in each episode, etc.) As a science fiction regular television series, it was the first of its kind. One regular character's name was accidentally reversed due to a stenciling error by the staff. That's especially a shame because the character represented a "first" for television. "ROBOT 1" became "I TOBOR" and was misnamed despite being the first robot as a regular character on a television series. The show had an amazingly wide range of products for merchandising for its time. In fact, some of the merchandising seemed superior to some of the on-set props. The theme was the Overture to "the Flying Dutchman" by Wagner. This series is fairly well-known even now. At the time, it was fairly famous. In fact, it was famous enough to be sub-referenced in another show. We know this was Ed Norton's favorite television show. And a recent Dick Tracy cartoon strip suggested that Vitamin Flintheart got his television break on this show. The main character was played, for a time, by the man who invented the Green Hornet and the Lone Ranger. Ok, I get them running into a department store in the same building and improvising props from off the shelves, but interspersing COWBOY shorts in the middle and trying to make it make sense in an SF story?

In this takeoff on Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew, a new kid must find a guy to date the meanest girl in school, the older sister of the girl he has a crush on, who cannot date until her older sister does. After graduation, he ends up working for Her Majesty's Secret Service alongside a Japanese secret-service ninja force that must find and stop the true culprit of a series of space-jackings before nuclear war is provoked. Cast includes Julia Stiles, Heath Ledger, and Sean Connery.
