m.o.v.i.e.s.

[katiemac]

Simple game:

First, I start by naming a film. The next person names an actor in that film. Next, someone names a different film the actor has been in.

Example:
Batman Begins
Christian Bale
3:10 to Yuma
Russell Crowe
A Beautiful Mind ...

And it goes on. No actor or film repeats, and no fair using films that haven't been released yet. And let's try not to IMDB any answers, ok? :)

Potential thread killer, Ray. I'm going out on a limb here. Willie Wonka was editted by David Saxon, who's daughter Jen Saxon Gore I've worked with. She produced Crank Yankers and Too Late With Adam Carolla and Adam Carolla had a role in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back even though (much to his chagrin) his scenes were deleted...

If anyone else has a better answer to Ray, be my guest an bypass this post. Or you can just leap off from here!

Sheesh, Ray. Make it harder for us, why dotcha!

[Prozyan]

Sheesh, Ray. Make it harder for us, why dotcha!

Jack Albertson. Should lead to a pretty obvious movie that gets back to a few big names ;)

[childeroland]

The Poseiden Adventure ('72) -- responding to Jack Albertson

[ChaosTitan]

This isn't intended as a thread killer, because I love this game (Yay, Katie!). Just a request to watch answers and make sure they are correct, before you post. Cuz some haven't been.

As you were.

Pirates: Black Pearl was the film that kick-started the game. So we should stick to Chunky's post because Pirates: CotBP doesn't count.

Tomorrow Never Dies
Michelle Yeoh

and I'm adding

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

[ChunkyC]

Hey Ray....

Johnny Mnemonic

[maestrowork]

Tough one... almost everyone is unknown there.

Ice T.

[Cranky]

I concur with Ray ... :D Sorry Cranky ... but we've got to go with Chunky's post ...

Johnny Mnemonic

'Sokay. I wandered off to a different thread and missed the change, drat it.

Okay. Johnny Mnemonic.

Ice T.

ETA: Dammit! :roll: I'll pass.

Next?

[katiemac]

Okay.

Ice-T was in Judgment Day ... and there's at least two small actors here that I can link up to bigger movies if someone names them. One is a rapper.

:)

[maestrowork]

The Deep Blue Sea


Wait, I'm lost. Will someone reboot the game, please?

[Cranky]

Dang, you guys are fast! I think we're still on Judgment Day. Sorry, Ray.

[katiemac]

Sorry Ray, Cranky's LL Cool J response was wrong.

We're still on Judgment Day.

Edit: Too much editing!! :)

[childeroland]

Emilio Estevez (responding to Judgment Day)

[katiemac]

Alas! Emilio Estevez was in Judgment Night.

Do we have a thread killer on our hands, or can I whisper an answer in someone's ear?

[Cranky]

Coolio. *I had to cheat a little, though*

[katiemac]

Coolio! Which takes us to ...

Batman & Robin.

He had a bit part, and I think this is the film that will get us more easily back on track.

(The other option I was thinking of was Suzy Amis, who was in both Judgment Day and Titanic.)

[Cranky]

Alicia Silverstone

[ChunkyC]

Clueless

(which is how I was feeling for a bit there ;) )

Damn! I was hoping you'd go with your previous LL Cool J response, haha. ;)

[Cranky]

ROFL! I should've, shouldn't I? Seemed like bad luck. :roll:

[katiemac]

We could've even filled in Ray's Deep Blue Sea and THEN lead us to Samuel L...

*sigh*

Ah well ...

Samuel L. Jackson

to

Unbreakable

:)

[Cranky]

Ooooh, good movie!

Bruce Willis.

[katiemac]

I wondered if we can get through a whole page of responses between the two of us ... Where'd everyone go? :)

Yippie-kay-yay! Die Hard.

[Cranky]

I don't know. *pouts* What're we gonna do with all this movie popcorn? :D



Alan Rickman

[katiemac]

Love, love love Alan Rickman!! I was hoping you'd say that. :)

Sense and Sensibility

[Cranky]

Alan Rickman *drools*

Emma Thompson (I love that movie, too. He was wonderful in it)

[katiemac]

I had to check, but Emma's been used. Quick! Swap it out!

[Cranky]

Dangit! Sorry.

Kate Winslet

Shoot, I didn't check! I hope she's not been used already, too! *facepalm*

[katiemac]

I have to ...

Titanic.

I think Kate's okay. I'm going to have to make a list.

[Cranky]

I was just thinking the same thing, lol. Too many pages!

Kathy Bates. I KNOW she hasn't been up yet. :D

[ChunkyC]

MISERY! :D


Why am I smiling? She freaked me out in that movie.

[katiemac]

Misery

EDIT: Damn you, Chunky!

Glad you're back in the game. ;)

But James Caan's already been used, so I have to pass on this one ...

[ChunkyC]

Boy's gotta take a lunch break every now and then. ;)

[Cranky]

Argh. You mean there was someone else in Misery besides Kathy Bates and James Caan??

Drat. I wish I could remember the agent at the end... I'll have to pass for now, too.

[katiemac]

Chunky and I simultaneously killed the thread. ;)

[Cranky]

Can we cheat to kick start it up again? :D

[ChunkyC]

I bet Ray has an answer.

Oh Ray-MUN-doooo......

[katiemac]

If not, I vote that Chunky and I cancel each other out. :)

[Cranky]

Sounds reasonable to me. Shall we give it awhile longer, before we do that?

[childeroland]
