Who was it who played:
Vincent

Big Boy?
Get it right and start your own list.
Get it wrong, your list is null and void.
After a day of 0 replies, it’s obvious this isn’t going to fly.
Al Pacino.
Al Pacino is the answer? It looks like John Travolta to me. 
Might even be Travolta. All I know is I got all those character names off Pacino’s IMDB page.
It did occur to me – as the thread just sat there with no action – that first names alone don’t give much help as far as characters go. But then full names are way too easy for any actor with a decent body of work.
I mean who wouldn’t know:
Stanley Kowalski
Don Vito Corleone
You could stop right there and have a real exciting half-minute before somebody popped back with the answer. Not a lot of fun.
But I guess it would be slightly more fun than no response at all in 24 hours. 
I gotta go with Ron Perlman here. Did i get it?
mmmmmm…Nope.
Vincent, Michael and Tony are all Travolta characters (Pulp Fiction, Michael and Saturday Night Fever).
Decent idea, but problems, you’re right. Let’s think up something else even more fun!

Yep. I kept listing the names until Big Boy looked like it ought to isolate Pacino. It also occurred to me that unless somebody was super-bored and really intent on getting the answer they’d pretty much have to page through IMDB looking for character lists, or do some serious searches on character names, one at a time.
No joy.
I’d also like to get something moving on a similar notion. Would peculiar costumes be a good thing to think about? (We’d have to be pretty good at describing such things.)
Okay, I’ll play.
Edward
Captain Jack
Rochester
Sir James
Inspector Fred
George
Constable Ichabod
I was going to guess Ron Perlman too.
That would also be wrong.
Johnny Depp
Lynn
Sam
Patella
Morgan
Bo
Mikey
Johnny Depp?
Sean Astin?
Yep.
Depp.
I think mine should be guessable without utilizing IMdB. The first one is the most telling…
Tyler
Joe
Jeffrey
Mickey
Rusty
John
Okay! I didn’t put up another list, so here’s (hopefully) an easier one:
Audrey
Elizabeth
Laura
Lauren
Jain
Ellen
Marcy
Brenna
Brad Pitt.
Dixie
Margot
Viola
Liv
Wendy
I know. I was just trying to offer moral support. 
If I have time later on, I will also offer a list of character names.
I was being snarky. Thanks for the support. And do get a list together, please.
