Thank God SOMEBODY saw the Blue Lagoon sequel (AND was willing to admit it). Lisa Pelikan was in… “LIONHEART” ---

Unfortunately, I didn’t see _Lion Heart_. I remember another movie of Lisa Pelikan’s - a Carrie rip-off where she controlled snakes. But I don’t remember who else was in that one, either. 🙂 Sheri ---

I just want to point out that we’ve currently veered off from movies which I’ve ever _heard of_, much less seen; I’m not ignoring you. ---

I’ll admit it: I finally TRIED to cheat. I looked up “Simon Sez” on the internet movie database. But even WITH the database, I found that I’ve never heard of ANYBODY in the cast! SO, I can’t cheat, however much I want to. ---

I think this one’s gone long enough (we’re close to the sixth page). Unless someone can solve this by noon we should start a new thread… And there’s should probably be a special award (booby prize?) for someone who gets Dennis Rodman into a movie thread. ---

Sigh… Okay, Protesilaus “won,” we end that last game with Dennis Rodman. Let’s start a new game. In honor of Dennis Rodman, a new movie with a basketball theme. “HOOSIERS” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-movie-chain-link-game-strikes-back/104132.md?page=11) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-movie-chain-link-game-strikes-back/104132.md?page=13)
