Well, how about just “Tom Cruise is the best [xxx] in the world”?

Sarah Silverman has a line in School of Rock along the lines of “Stand up for yourself!”
In Futurama, she did the voice of Fry’s on-again/off-again girlfriend of the past 1,000 years, Michelle, and has the line “Quit standing up for yourself!”
Tommy Kirk played a Martian invading Earth and trying to get women in 1964’s Pajama Party and 1967’s ** Mars Needs Women**. Why? I can understand Bela Lugosi playing a vampire over and over, or Sean Connery playing James Bond for different companies, but what about Tommy Kirk says “Martian Invader”?
Kirk also played the brother of Kevin Corcoran in five unrelated fims:
Old Yeller
The Shaggy Dog
Swiss Family Robinson
Bon Voyage!
Savage Sam
I wouldn’t exactly call those movies “unrelated.” They were all done by Disney at the time when Tommy Kirk, Kevin (“Moochie”) Corcoran and Annette Funicello turned up in just about everything Disney produced.
By “unrelated” I (and the guy who wrote the “trivia” entry I scarfed) mean that there was nothing related about the stories or their sources. Disney made them all, but they weren’t constrained to use the same actors in all five flicks. I can’t think of another case where they had such a run of unrelated actors playing relatives.
Savage Sam was the sequel to Old Yeller, and the two actors were playing the same characters in both.
What happens if Tom Cruise meets Starbuck?
Harvey Keitel plays a “cleaner” in both Pulp Fiction and Point of No Return.
That is, he is called in to dispose of a dead body. This is accomplished with a great deal more humor in Pulp Fiction.
In Murder By Death, Eileen Brennan faints and is not caught by Alec Guinness.
In Clue, Eileen Brennan faints and is not caught by Tim Curry.
David Carradine plays the tough, ruthless racing-car driver in an almost no-rules, trackless race movie directed by Paul Bartels.
Death Race 2000 (1975) and Cannonball (1976)
Mel Gibson attacks someone with the American Flag - The Simpsons and The Patriot. (While The Simpsons was a parody of Mr Smith Goes to Washington, if I’m not mistaken, it came before The Patriot, which means that The Patriot scene could be a parody of The Simpsons?) :dubious:
Starbuck kicks his ass because Tom Cruise is a total pussy?

In North by Northwest, Cary Grant sings from My Fair Lady (“I’ve becomed accustomed to my bourbon”). In Charade, he takes Audrey Hepburn up an elevator and lets her off “On the street where you live” (and this was before the film version of MFL came out).
snort Heh, probably.
