Crimson Tide?

I'm guessing that WW won't mind my adding a clue: the movie starred Danny Kaye. George

Once again, you posted a quote from a movie, where you could have posted 1/2 the script without me getting it, except for the one quote you posted. This was from early on in "Red Dawn."

For the first time, the cluegiver IS the clue!

Nooo idea! (Though it may be a werewolf film?)

I'm confident the word "werewolf" does not appear in this movie. It certainly does not appear in the title.
You'd think a movie with supporting cast like James Spader and Michelle Pfeiffer would be easier to remember....

Correct!
And, as you can tell from the quotes, it's no typical "werewolf" movie.

I'll save you the trouble: it's not a Narnia episode.

"Hook"?

Yes.
Run home, Jack: pirates don't know baseball. They're rooting for Jack to hit a home run, but screwed up.
Bad form! Jack chastises Hook with one of Hook's own catchphrases.
"Oh there you are, Peter..."
That's my favorite line of the movie: the one lost boy finally recognizes Peter by stretching his face.

"Take us out."
"Very good, sir."
"Brought a tear to my eye."
"Oh, be quiet."
"Finding retirement a little lonely, are we?"
"You know, I'm glad you're an engineer. With tact like that, you'd make a lousy psychiatrist."
"Did we make a difference?"
"Oh, yes. We made a difference."

I'm possibly the only one who thinks of J. Wellington Wimpy, Popeye's pal, when watching this movie.
Other people think about Chicago, for equally vague reasons.
(Since Chicago doesn't appear in this movie.)

I know I don't. (I guess there is sort of a "I will gladly pay you Tuesday..." theme, though.)
Not I.
Not the city, not the song, not the movie.
And I grew up there!

Apparently, LOTS of people joke about Captain Harriman, and what Cameron Frye
("Ferris Buehler's Day Off") is doing in charge of the Enterprise.
Michael Okuda HIMSELF wrote up John Harriman's biographical file for the
game "ST: Starship Creator". It says he has a wife named Sloane, a son named
Ferris, they live in Chicago, and he likes 20th century Italian sportscars.
("Chicka-chicka.")
Okuda has a bigger sense of humor than I expected.
Harriman's also appeared in 3 novels. 2 of those appearances were written by
Peter David. This DOESN'T surprise me. I've known Peter David to have a wacky sense
of humor for some time now.
