The Wolfman really did fail to make an impact, so let's see if we can't start this new thread off with a more recognisable iconic role.

Anyhoo, here are the rules as composed originally by Don, iirc.

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

[nemarsde tweak]No repeats within 5 steps and avoid getting caught in a loop with MCU or Fast & Furious movies, for example. Long-running franchises with ensemble casts can allow you go round and round indefinitely.[/nemarsde tweak]

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.

So, the last film I watched in the cinema was...

Dune (2021)

Which only when it starts reveals it's actually 'Dune: Part One'! grrr

That immediately got my back up.

But anyway, there will have been sufficient posters, trailers and TV spots that naming an actor from it shouldn't require a Mentat. wink

Jason Momoa, lots of recent films to choose from so I'll let someone else go. smile

Haven't seen it yet but have seen the previews and recognize Ryan Reynolds. Maybe I'll watch it tonight!

Just finished watching it. A nice mix of Indiana Jones, Thomas Crowne, National Treasure, and just about any action movie.

I gave up on trying to follow the plot and just enjoyed the comedy.

Also Samuel L. Jackson was literally mind blowing in Kingsman: The Secret Service

I'll give it a go then, guys, thanks!

I'm gonna be a little daring with the next one but I feel he is an underappreciated actor...

I forgot to add that one of the scenes almost exactly followed one of my side quests in Mass Effect 2.

That was one of the best ME2 missions, imo, topped only by Lair of the Shadow Broker.

Um, but OK. The film above starred Benedict Cucumberpatch.

Hmm, OK, we better avoid WW because we've already had her actress...

You know what, I'm just gonna say Star Trek (2009).
