He's gonna get David Blane to do it!
Either that, or the Lesbian Penis (turkey baster).

Pah, it was more impressive when Michael Jackson did it.

Didn't Tom Cruise already do this?

If I wanted to watch a woman p*ss on a stick until it changes colour I'd have stayed with that skank I had unprotected sex with last week.

Just kidding. I stayed in and played Scrabble. Alone. Oh, God, why won't I just die?

Mock if you will. But when David Copperfield's son proves to be the second coming... heh... I said coming.

What was I saying?

Your Wife, by Matthew Broderick, and Wargames, Ace. Yeesh. Give me difficult one next time.

James Earl Jones in the Movie: Gardens of Stone

"Who first proposed the idea of reproduction without sex?"

Answer: "Your Wife"

I'd prefer to have the sex without the impregnation, rather than the other way around. That can be magic too, ya know.

Aldous Huxley, Brave New World?

The Ferris Beuller guy in War Games to his fat teacher.

C'mon push me! (what chracter and movie and what is the response)

David Lightman was Broderick's character in Wargames. I drove myself nuts all afternoon trying to remember that -- what a frickin' geek I am.

What answer is given to that question, by whom, and in what movie?

?
Woody Allen
Sleeper

Who thought Ace sat through two showings of Good Night, and Good Luck, making out with the back of his hand this weekend?

I think it was Mary, about 2000 years ago. This could have been a dodge, of course, to save the stable boy. But whatever, the idea has been around.

No touching no grouping will he still be able to do the saw em in two without touching and grouping?

Monty, here's one:

"You can study in jail, too ... if you have to."

Hint: in context, it's dripping with painfully awkward dramatic irony.

nameless, are you implying that Ace has a thing for Ray Wise?

Ace! Compadre! All these years, ever since "Fire: Walk With Me," I thought I was the only one ...

there are dozens of us! DO-ZENS!!

Knemon:

Hmm. Soul Man? The Good Professor Banks?

(If I'm right, I just might puke. I hated that movie in so many ways I'd need a chart and colored markers to make you understand, but I've sat through it three or four times because an old girlfriend loved it.)

In Gardens of Stone it was James Earl Jones' character
that asked the question and it was DB Sweeney's
character that answered it.

Okay, now I'm impressed.

Yeah, it's bad.

One of those "good, kind of, when you're 17 and high and the word 'Negro' can send you into fits of giggles, but later in life makes you hate your former self" movies.

I like those movies.

What ever happened to C. Thomas Howell?
Oh, and while we're at it - wasn't that Julia Louis-Dreyfuss's big break?

nameless, are you implying that Ace has a thing for Ray Wise?

Are you kidding me? Or, did you really not hear about Ace's dream?

Trivia From A Misspent Youth Update:

Who first proposed the idea of reproduction without sex?

I'm not sure if I was the first, but I certainly proposed the opposite as often as I could -- and it certainly wasn't "misspent" ...

?

Here's one.

It's from a movie outside of this site's "comfort zone" (which seems to be 80s movies starring actors not cool enough to make the cut for the Brat Pack).

Released more than 5 but less than 15 years ago.

The question is: "Are you wearing mascara?"

In context, both the question and the reply are fun-nay.

Knemon:

I hope C. Thomas Howell is rotting in some community playhouse or dinner theater in the Catskills. He was a horrible actor. Kind of like Judd Nelson and Jon Cryer. Good riddance to those '80's no-talent whores.

D.B. Sweeney is cool, though, and I'd like to see him in more stuff. He did a neat series awhile back called Strange Luck that only lasted a season or so. It was a good, quirky show, so naturally it got canceled.

Repo Man is a great movie for quotes; you can pick a scene pretty much at random and come up with gold. One of my favorite flicks of all time (and the only Emilio Estevez picture I actually like).

But my #1 favorite movie quote is from The Magnificent Seven, where some villager asks Vin (Steve McQueen) what their business is, and he answers, "We deal in lead, friend."

"Gardens of Stone"

I'm a little late, Rich, but how'd "Soul Man" turn into this in your memory? It's like you've got an entirely internal game of Telephone going on in there.

Sadly, he says it to Howell, not Sweeny. But it was definitely Mr. This-Is-CNN.

Anyone know Jones' first speaking role? (Probably *everybone* knows this, and i'm bringing a knife to a geek-fight.)

The answer I was thinking of was Brodderick in Wargames. I never saw Gardens of Stone.

I don't know what the "Are you wearing mascara?" line is from, but what movie (I dont' know) does John Candy (?) say to a burly inmate in drag (?) "You shouldn't wear so much make-up. It makes you look cheap"?

"i'm in a band."
Marky Mark

Still, we should forgive CTH. The man has suffered.

http://imdb.com/name/nm0001367/

"In 2003 he was hospitalized for 4 weeks because of a ruptured appendix, a very serious illness, fatal if not treated on time. He lost 45 pounds and surgeons had to take out 3 feet of his stomach among other things in order to save his life. "

I wouldn't wish that on ... Colin Farrell.

*

This is ineffably sad.
From his (presumably self-authored?) bio on imdb:

"Tested for the role of Marty McFLy in "Back to the Future" (1985)."

... coulda been a contenduh ...

"You shouldn't wear so much make-up. It makes you look cheap"?

hmmm.
hmmmmmmmm.

I assume recourse to ibdm is off-limits?
hmmmmmm.

Delirious? The forgotten John Candy movie?

""i'm in a band."
Marky Mark"

I was thinking of "Otis" in "Kicking and Screaming."
You know, Carlos Jacott? The guy who plays the Bosley character on "She Spies?"

*crickets*
*tumbleweed*

(the answer to the question is simply "Yes." But again, in context, yux).

No, I don't think it's delirious. I'm not sure it's even John Candy. It could be Chevy Chase.

It's "Fletch Lives."

As soon as you wrote Chevy Chase I knew it had to be one or the other of the Fletches, but couldn't remember which. A little googling, and I found it.

He doesn't just say it to *any* old gender-bending convict, though. He's talkin' to the initimable Randall "Tex" Cobb! Leonard Smalls hisself.

And loose shit on Copperfield's girlfriend's name.

Unless that is the actual spelling, in which case I'll look like an (even bigger) ass.

I thought maybe it was Fletch II. It sounded like a Fletch line, but I knew it wasn't in Fletch I.

I thought Coverdale's squeeze was Tawney Kitaen, not Schiffer? Or did he dump Kitaen and nail Schiffer afterward? Or both at once? He's a rock'n'roller, so I can't rule out anything.

Except that he kinda looked like Chet Huntly if Huntly had let his hair grow out. Give Coverdale a whiffle cut and squarejohn glasses, and he could have sat right beside David Brinkley during the nightly newscast and no one would have suspected a thing until he started crooning Slide It In.

Jon Cryer has a successful television show. I shd be so lucky.

This has got to be the most gay thread ever to occur on AOSHQ.

Plus, you have all forgotten to mention the most important event in the history of cinema:

The 1975 version of Rollerball. It's just never going to be equalled.

Ahhh, the great Randall "Tex" Cobb. Or, as he went by in Fletch Lives, Ben Dover.

Man, I think I'm just going to have to watch Uncommon Valor this weekend. Anyone want to lay odds a Ted Turner-owned network is going to show it at some point then?

Hell, it'll probably be playing on the ones. Or, in Turner's case, the fives.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

I have to admit I first came to know Monseigneur Cobb as "that guy in the first two minutes of Ace Ventura."

This might be a good time to mention, by way of mitigation, that I'm a young'un. Young enough that I sort of vaguely thought Dukakis and Reagan were the same person for a year or two. I'm a Carter baby, but just barely.

Beetlejuice was to me what, say, Star Wars was to the older among you, and Red Dawn to the younger.

I didn't have all that much to choose from. It's not my fault the country and all its cinematic product went to hell after 1988.

Answers:

1. "Your wife."
2. Matthew Broderick's character to his teacher
3. War Games

Is he paying the women like he paid for Claudia to be his girlfriend. Where's Siegfreid and that tiger?

Just to go off on a tangent for a bit:

a friend of mine in California has a company that is a mixture between eBAY and Friendster called DOMEAFAVORBUDDY.COM they are giving away an Ipod Nano and other Mp3 players. FREE. Spread the word - especially in the military/overseas. The company offer is designed that the more people that sign up, the more free prizes they give away.

Re: "Are you wearing mascara"

Real Genius

Uh, your wife, sir?
Mattew Broderick in Wargames.

This is probably the 85th answer, but I thought I would give it too.

It was Orson Welles in Citizen Kane.

How bout something tough next time?

Apparently lots of films have the line "Are you wearing mascara?"

I think I picked the wrong question to use - it's not a rare enough thing to say.

How about: "Can you describe the child's jammies, please?"

That one's easy. And the response is great.

Speaking of Fletch: It seems like in one of the Fletch movies, Chevy was getting a proctological exam for some reason or another, and at the crucial "moment of truth" he asks the Dr. if he'd ever done any time in prison. Now that was funny shit when you were 18.

Yeah! And he also says "Usin' the whole fist, doc?"

Memories.

I believe Plato proposed the idea of reproduction without sex in the Republic.

The Republic envisions the abolition of marriage, private property, etc., but the citizens would still have sex. They just wouldn't know who the father of any given child is.

No shit?

Man, now I wish I didn't routinely fall asleep in my Classical History course in high school.

In an unrelated note, I almost named my blog "Greetings Professor Falken" but didn't think anyone would get it.

I know now never to underestimate the geekiness of blog readers.

I should add: they wouldn't know who the mothers were, either. At birth the children are to be taken from their mothers and raised communally.

This is just for the upper two classes - the lower peasant/worker class *probably* gets to continue normal family life, it's unclear.

Plato was a weird dude.
