Trivia Games / Complete the scene!

« on: January 24, 2003, 12:32:35 AM »

Alright, the newbie is gonna start a game!  This is something I've done before in film buff chatrooms and it's pretty fun.  It's called Complete the Scene.  I start with the first line of dialogue from a particular scene.   Then someone else comes in with the next line and so on until the scene is completed.  If everyone is stumped then I'll post the next line to push it along.  If this has been done before here, then disregard this whole thing and call me a moron!
What gets really interesting is when an entire film is quoted.  Maybe I'll do that one of these days.

Here goes:

In more than 30 years of police work this has got to be the single most outrageous transgression of authority I ever heard about.  What the hell did you think you were doing?

Questions & Answers / Character continuity question

« on: January 23, 2003, 07:18:17 AM »

New guy to the forum here.

I have a question that's been burning a hole in my head for ages now.  Here goes:

In Magnum Force, Hal Holbrook plays Lt. Briggs.  In The Enforcer, Brad Dillman plays Capt. McKay.  In Sudden Impact, Brad Dillman plays Capt. Briggs.  Coincidence? Mistake?  Purposeful?  The guy who plays Lt. Bressler stays the same, as does the guy who plays Lt./Capt. Donnelly.  Just a little confusing to me.  And don't even get me started on Al Popwell consistently coming back from the dead to play a different character every time.
