This is Round Thirty Eight of the Neverending Movie Chain. Feel free to jump in anywhere you want, post once or post as often as you want just don't reply to yourself. huh

For any new folks joining in <and new folks are definitely encouraged to do so>...

We start by naming a movie, the next player to jump in has to name an actor in that film and the next to follow him/her has to name a different movie that actor was in.

EX:

Player one: Star Wars, Player Two: Mark Hamill, Player Three: Corvette Summer, Player Four: Annie Potts, Player Five: Ghostbusters, etc., etc.

Repeats are allowed but discouraged and there has to be a distance of at least five steps before you use a movie or an an actor a second time. No IMDb please <expect to look up dates of movies with identical titles or spellings of names>. grin

You need to follow the chain as it is drawn, no jumping. If we have Stephen Moyer on the table and someone plays Prince Valiant then the Prince Valiant you have to go out of is the one that had Stephen Moyer in it, no matter how many other movies out there are named Prince Valiant.

A clarification on play. We want to avoid using archival footage. For purposes of our game Dick Clark, Bob Hope, President Kennedy etc. Did not appear in Forrest Gump.

I won't make this a rule but rather a recommendation. Please avoid films that have not been released/aired in the U.S.

And just for the sake of putting it into the written rules mostly for sake of newcomers voice work (animated films) and made-for-TV movies are allowed but not mini-series.

Oh, and the idea is not to stump everyone but to keep the chain going for as long as possible.

Lauren Bacall was wonderful in it, but then the whole cast was pretty terrific!

This may have made the Hotel del Coronado as famous as it is. smile

I think Jack Lemmon earned an Oscar for his role, did he not?

(Edit: looked it up. Nominated, didn't win.)

I think by posting the video with the movie title Phoenix assumed that Christmas Chronicles had been played....

Well, I did play Kurt Russell and kind of play Christmas Chronicles in the same post. So you could say I was playing with myself in public. blush

I think PP did the only sensible thing and continued on regardless. lol

So sorry, my bad. We're on The First Wives Club.

Well, I hesitate to head toward the beach because I can't personally remember any other beachgoers. And I know at least two old classic Disney films she's been in, one live and one as a voice.

But the odds are probably best going back to marital (non)bliss:

The Stepford Wives
