The Movie Game II

There are a lot better choices from Grease… you force my hand:

Xanadu
She’d be a lot easier if we could include films where she’s just on the soundtrack.

Gene Kelly.

I just knew it would be Gene Kelly. Once you play the Xanadu card it almost has to be.

Inherit the Wind

People, people, people. I’m giving you chance after chance to work in some musicals (Stubby Kaye – Guys and Dolls; John C. Reilly – Chicago), but will you do it? No! Sheesh! :rolleyes:

Sigh.

Spencer Tracy.

Hmmm . Let’s go with “Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner” .

Twickster, I really considered using Chicago for Reilly, but I just couldn’t do it. I was afraid someone would go with Queen Latifah.

Sidney Poitier

What’s everyone waiting for?

Me!

Oh, gee, thanks.

In the Heat of the Night

That gets us Rod Steiger, right?

Nah, wouldn’t’ve done that – Richard Gere, probably (yum), or maybe Taye Diggs (yum yum…). Some day let’s do an all-musicals version of this, okay? Maureen and I would enjoy that, if no one else would. (Where is Maureen, btw? I’d expect her to be all over this game like white on rice.)

Speaking of Rod Steiger in the '60s –

No Way to Treat a Lady

Doris Roberts

Oh, sure. Start without me why don’t you? :smiley:

Doris Roberts was in Christmas Vacation

Randy Quaid.

Quick Change

Bill Murray

By the way, since no one answered my question at the beginning of this page, it was John Laroquette.

What About Bob?

Meatballs – because it just doesn’t matter.

OK, because I don’t think he’s been mentioned yet:

Richard Dreyfuss

Julie Hagerty (who suggests a “gimme” that may or may not be played, depending on which cineaste responds)

And to think I was going to make a joke about probably losing a simulpost battle after the thread had lain fallow for nearly 24 hours…
