Hang on, are these now libellous?

The Bee Gees are stuck in my head all of a sudden.

The most impressive thing about "Chicago" was that Richard Gere actually stepped outside of his comfort zone in that role.

Haha, at first I was gonna be like, "What are you talking about, Jeff Daniels is great in that!" and then I realized what you were doing.

People who gawk through movies. People who shock through movies. People who stalk through movies. People who balk through movies. People who mock through movies. People who caulk through movies. People who knock through movies. People who rock through movies...

The correct answer:

Al Pacino

― Allyzay Dallas Multi-Pass (allyzay), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 04:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Michael Caine. I think you have to be kind of a suave bastard to do this. And do you have to be a man? It's weird how we haven't mentioned any ladies yet.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 04:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Speaking of which...

Roger Moore, anybody??

― hobart paving (hobart paving), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 08:56 (twenty-one years ago)

[off-the-cuff genderwar explanation: women have a way shorter shelf-life then men in hollywood, and thus have to come up w.shtick to keep getting work; men are allowed to hone their narrow shtick] [fnar!]

Has Julia Roberts ever played anyone but herself?

I mean, she's had a few roles, but they seem to have been Julia Roberts the hooker, Julia Roberts the Crusading Journalist, Julia Roberts the woman who walks around casinos in a posh frock.

― hobart paving (hobart paving), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 10:01 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah sure but what will be interesting is where she translates "julia roberts in a" to when gravity starts tell

― mark s (mark s), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 10:13 (twenty-one years ago)

i don't get it, what's this thread about?

― g-kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Sam Neill.

Though his walking is more of a pleasant stroll.

― Huey (Huey), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:16 (twenty-one years ago)

This is harsh. Humprey Bogart to thread, but that doesn't mean he's any less great.

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Dean Martin, Ben Stiller, Robert Duvall, Josh Hartnett.

― NRQ, Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:33 (twenty-one years ago)

YES WAY dino BUT IN A GOOD YES WAY

― mark s (mark s), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:37 (twenty-one years ago)

of late i've never seen duvall do anything i wouldn't expect from him: my fault for watching 'gone in 60 seconds' i spose.

― NRQ, Wednesday, 2 March 2005 11:39 (twenty-one years ago)

― latebloomer: Klicken für Details (latebloomer), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 12:34 (twenty-one years ago)

i saw that int he first post, but i don't get what 'phone it in' means. just for the money?

― g-kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 12:43 (twenty-one years ago)

to "phone it in" means that you're so unengaged in your performance that you may as well be phoning your lines in from elsewhere.

― jbr (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 12:55 (twenty-one years ago)

so that "walk through" i guess means you have a strong developed (formerly?) popular shtick which you are not bothering to adapt in the slightest to the project at hand

― mark s (mark s), Wednesday, 2 March 2005 13:00 (twenty-one years ago)

thanks muchly.

jason lee.
