    this thread is dying fast...

    in the movie the Town - what company does Doug Macray (Ben Affleck) work for ?
     
  3. Underdog Franchise Player Patriots

    No idea...I remember him referring to himself as a "rock-breakin' townie," so I'll guess The Charlestown Rock Breakin' Company.

    i gotta give you an A for effort. it was simply known as Sand and Gravel.

    Name the songs Mike Damone cites in his Cheap Trick ticket sales pitch to the girl on the bleachers in Fast Times At Ridgemont High
     
  6. Catfish Guest

    he sings - the dream police, nada nada nada - my momma's alright, my daddy's alright, it just gets a little bit easier to SURRENDER !

    it's Surrender !

    staying with fast times----what is the final score of the football game vs lincoln ?
     
  8. Underdog Franchise Player Patriots

    Dream Police and Surrender are two. He also speaks the title lyrics from a third song before he sings Dream Police.
     
  9. Underdog Franchise Player Patriots

    And you severely mangled those lyrics to Surrender lol. (that's why we love you, tho, Fish)

    i thought that was 1 song ? bwhahahahaha
     
  11. Catfish Guest

    im basing it off of memory. i didn't look it up. be thankful it was half right. most people wouldn't even know the lyrics i put down. haha.
     
  12. Underdog Franchise Player Patriots

    *ROFL* *ROFL* *ROFL* *ROFL*

    wait i just looked up the dream police lyrics and the song he sings to that girl isn't the dream police song.

    i think he mixes the 2 together. he says something like ...

    i want you to want me...the dream police nada nada nada your momma's alright, your daddy's alright...
     
  14. Underdog Franchise Player Patriots

    Yup, I Want You To Want Me is the third one.

    The scoreboard says 42-0 as the clock is winding down and Jefferson is shown spiking the ball. But it also says it's the 2nd quarter.

    So I think the final score was a lot higher lol.

    when he spikes the ball the game is ending. i think it was 4th atr, 2nd half. it was 42-0. that's why his teammates all celebrate around him. the game is over. they wouldn't celebrate like that in the 2nd qtr.

    sean penn may have 2 Oscars and I think he really should've won for other roles (discussed years ago on one of these movie threads). hard to believe Jeff Spicoli became a great actor.

    in some odd trivia - since penn and a young tom cruise were in taps together with oscar winner timothy hutton, they were all pretty tight. when cruise was filming risky business, penn would hang out with cruise when the sets were closed. in the scene where tom's parents leave and he backs his dad's porsche out of the driveway - sean penn is actually backing out the car!

    and tom did date rebecca demorney in real life. the weird thing was she was also seeing dirty old man harry dean stanton at the time. ew. she was young and he was in his late 40's or early 50's !

    I don't disagree with you Cat, in the context of on-screen action it's pretty clear the game is over, but check that lower right corner...

    People forget about this, but in the original New York Magazine article that coined the phrase "Brat Pack" these three were prominently featured as part of the group even though nobody associates them with the Brat Pack now.

    Anyone remember or care to venture a guess at who the other 5 actors mentioned as being part of the group in that original article were?
     
  19. Catfish Guest

    ugh. maybe they only played 2 qtrs? haha

    well that's a bit hard as many actors were considered part of the brat pack due to their ages, hard partying and the movies they were in together or separately.

    i know this - emelio estevez hated the name.

    the main 3 were judd nelson, rob lowe and Emilio estevez.

    ally sheedy and demi moore were probably in it too.

    now since they were around the same age and i just mentioned it above in risky business - tom cruise and sean penn were probably in the article, but they were never in a brat pack movie. i don't consider taps or risky business as movies in the brat pack.

    now the outsiders is the dawn of the brat pack movies, so add matt dillon to the club, but again, i never considered him a brat packer.

    molly ringwald was probably the closest member without being one. she got out of john hughes' movies, which he hated her for it.

    to me it was the 5 of the main cast of st. elmo's fire is where the brat pack was born. probably not in the article, but that's where it spawned from. no one called taps or risky business a brat pack movie. both came out in 82 and 83 and the brat pack was 85 ish.
