Actually, sometimes a mistake and quick posting will cause a couple of names to turn up twice because so-and-so was played incorrectly. Sorry, I got into this a bit late. And y’all were already like 8 pages past any of the ones I saw. That’s right, I read all 18 pages at once. > [@silenus](#): > > Hugh Grant how about **Two Weeks Notice** ---

It’s not the inconsistencies – since consistency is, after all, the last refuge of the unimaginative – it’s the “ew” factor of some of your honeys. I think Joan Allen is great. Unlike, say, Kathy Griffith. ---

(In case other people don’t want to know, preserve the illusion and all that 🙂 ) American Pie, post # 162 & 275; Donald Sutherland, post # 11 & 300; Chicago, post # 40 & 367. I think, didn’t see any rollbacks on those. You could change one of the American Pie entries to one of the sequels, I guess, Hannigan was in all three In keeping with the rule: Dupe? I have no idea what you’re talking about. And thanks. ---

Thanks, **BigDummy**. Players should (ahem) check if they’re in doubt, but I know I don’t always. This is why when we do catch a dupe in a timely manner and back up to replay, it’s nice to do a post with “movie, actor, movie, actor are all available” – that way, if you do do a search and come across a name that was played and then withdrawn, you know it’s okay. Re: your suggested fix: We have a no-sequel rule, so playing any one **Rocky** film takes all 43 of them out of play. ---
