    Clue #2: The film is in Black and White.
    Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Again, a little early for the next clue, but #2 didn't get any responses. I know I'm being deliberately vague, but seeing your WAGs is fun to watch.

    Clue #3: The film stars my favorite actor.

    Curse you, but no. Cursing you because now I have that freakin' song stuck in my head.

    Now I'm picturing that funny dance by Chris Kattan, but no, see clue 2.

    Okay, I know I'm pretty non-specific with the clues, but this one will have a little more meat to chew on.

    Clue #4: A fairly famous (maybe not today for non-film buffs) father and son were both involved in the making of this film. Both appear on-screen, but one of them only made an uncredited cameo.

    Really, no one? I'm flying across the country tomorrow and will be gone for a week; fair warning on anyone who wins this one...your sticks will be delayed.

    Clue #5: The Father from clue 4 is the one who did the funny dance from clue 1.

    Bonus Clue #6: Spoofs of that dance and a single oft-misquoted line from the movie are probably more well-known than the movie itself.

    Here's to you good looking!
  • MartelMartel Posts: 3,306 ✭✭✭✭
    Okay, now we're going to get into google territory...I don't want to have to post trivia while I'm enjoying the great state of Washington...

    Clue # whatever: The famous line from this movie has been spoofed by Mel Brooks (and this one may be more famous than the original), Weird Al, the Monkees, and I even saw it twisted into a march madness headline about the game between UNC and Villanova, to name just a few. And the dance was spoofed by Billy Crystal. I won't tell you in what movie, because that would be a real giveaway.

    I'm with you. I surely have never seen this movie.
  • MartelMartel Posts: 3,306 ✭✭✭✭
    Clue from Spokane, WA: Billy Crystal did the dance in City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly's Gold.

    Now, who won? Beatnic didn't give me the name of the movie, but he did borrow the quote.

    And, by the way, I'm only 35 and love that movie. But I'm a film buff and big Bogart fan.

    ... Badges ? We ain't got no badges, we don't need no badges, I don't have to show you any stinkin' Badges ! .... Why don't you try to be a little more polite ?
  • brianetz1brianetz1 Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭
    you make the call....either way.

    I know i have never seen the movie....hell i have never even heard of it, but my film tastes could never be considered well versed.

    If you ever get the chance and you care to see old movies, give it a shot. I'm guessing that you will find more than a few moments in the movie where you will go, oh that's where that came from. Not the best movie, but well known by movie buffs.
  • brianetz1brianetz1 Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭
    dude....its in black and white and there is no CGI, it can't be that good of a movie. I kid, but honestly, I'm not really a movie buff and to be totally honest pretty much every old movie i have seen bores the hell out of me....which is strange because i love to read and am pretty cultured there, but old movies are just not my thing.

    Go for it Brian. I was just goofing off.

    Great movie!! But Hell...I'm old!!
  • brianetz1brianetz1 Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭
    This film has a connection to "The Walking Dead"
  • MartelMartel Posts: 3,306 ✭✭✭✭
    Yeah, I do think brian wins since he gave me the film. Send me a PM with your addy, and I'll get some sticks to you when I get home.

    And just to get in one last reference, I'm here in Spokane and I have to ask Shizz something, because it feels like someone said, "Stop signs, we don't need no stinkin' stop signs," so what's the deal with these intersections?

    i guess we are close enough for another clue: Harlem
  • brianetz1brianetz1 Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭
    ok either people don't like me or you are clueless........so here's another clue because I'm smart enough, I'm good enough and people like me (this should give it away, but oh well): Samuel L. Jackson
