Dirty Harry.....When Harry stops the robbery at the beginning of the movie, he walks over to where the guy is lieing and gives his "I don't remember how many shots I fired" speech. But as he walks over to him, he passes a movie theater. What movie is playing?

Probably one of his spagetti westerns. Fist Full of Dollors, or The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Just as long as it wasn't Paint Your Wagon, lol.

What happened to most of the Earth's population, and what caused it, in "The Day of the Triffids"?

i think it had something to do with a bad meteor shower that struck the earth and then the plants (Triffids) took over and ate people, something like that?

Close enough. The meteor shower blinded most of the population, and allowed the plants to sneak up on unsuspecting blind people. If you didn't look at the meteor shower, you were ok.

I play on the So Cal Cruisers 60's team. My Grandfather played "Doc Adams" on Gunsmoke from 1955-1975.
What was Doc's first name and who played the town Blacksmith? See you at the field!

Tim, the 1 and only requirement for posing a question is that you have to answer the current question correctly, so Awesome is up. By the way, I'm a good friend of your manager, Phil Cook, and I hope you come back to the site and answer the next question, 'cause I'd like to hear more about your uncle.

I don't know the answer to Tim's question, but if Tim would come back on here and let us know, that would be great.

Anyway, my question is In the movie Dumb & Dumber

Our heroes Jim Carrey & Jeff Daniels are on their way to Colorado to return a brief case, on the way they stop at a Diner and Jeff Daniels throws a salt shaker which hits a Big RedNeck Guy by the name of SEA-BASS.

SEA-BASS threatens Jeff Daniels & Spits on his Burger, SEA-BASS is wearing a baseball style cap which contains three lines on the front, what does the hat say?

Sorry, I did not know rules, but I do now! The answer to the Gunsmoke question...Doc Adams first name is "Galen" and the actor who played the town Blacksmith for 3 seasons was Burt Reynolds.

You're right. Milburn Stone was my Mother's Father. My full name is Timothy Stone Gleason (no relationship to Jackie )
He was a great Grandfather and person. I miss him everyday, but I still get to see the Gunsmoke reruns on TV Land.
I go by Timothy Stone because that's what my wife calls me. If I run into you at one of the tournamnents, please say HI.

Where was most of "A Bronx Tale" filmed?

The film was directed by Robert DeNiro and written by Palminteri.

Extra-Extra credit: One of rhe best lines was spoken by the DeNiro character's son (you'd relate to the line better if you were Italian).

Sorry, but I didn't compete my question. Disregard previous post

The film was directed by Robert DeNiro and written by Palminteri.

Extra credit: One of rhe best lines was spoken by the DeNiro character's son (you'd relate to the line better if you were Italian). What did he say after a first kiss from his new girlfriend?

Extra-Extra-Extra credit: In the film, how could a guy tell if his date liked him?

It's 3 days and I ought to post a hint, but I can't think of one that isn't obvious. Maybe because it's too personal or too local.

I grew up in the neighborhood where the A Bronx Tale was filmed - Astoria, Queens. It was chosen because the streets today look exactly like the streets of the 50s and 60s (except street signs). My school/church/playground is constantly in the background - what a kick. Some scenes were filmed in Brooklyn.

The line spoken by DeNiros' character's son: He's about 15-16 and in love for the first time with a black girl from the "projects" (this would never really happen in my neighborhood). He kisses on the lips for the first time, steps back stunned and in awe and says "Do you make sauce? In his world, all he needed was a kisser like her and italian sauce.

Finally, if, after the guy opens the passenger side door for a date the first time, she reaches over to unlock the driver's side door, she liked him.

Another trivia item: During the openning scene, the boys are playing Johnny-ride-a-pony. Ever hear of it?

See next post for a more simple trivia question and thanks for listening to my reminiscing.

Ken,

Yup, Dustin is the man. He won best actor for Kramer v Kramer and Rain Man, but lost in 1969 to the Duke in True Grit.
