I was actually in a scene shot for Syriana, but they cut it. - Max Jun 7, 14:21 3
- "You're the Canadian" -- nm - prayformojo Jun 7, 14:27
- Syriana is a damn good movie. -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:21 1
  - and it would have been better if I'd been in it! -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:26
Our current constitutional crisis aptly summarized... -- (link) - David Jun 7, 14:12 10
- Our corrupt court system, they put people through "trials" whoever hear such a thing -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 8, 12:24
- Are we abolishing elections yet? -- nm - Strongbad Jun 7, 14:42 3
  - Why do you ask? -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:46 1
    - Just seemed like a fun conversation topic. -- nm - Strongbad Jun 7, 16:24
  - wait for it. -- nm - Jovian Jun 7, 14:42
- I am betting Orange Clown is getting nervous that his friend Mueller drop some indictments while he is away. -- nm - Jovian Jun 7, 14:32
- 6. Obama did all this and worse, why no uproar about him? -- nm - Tim Jun 7, 14:28 1
  - 7. Hillary’s emails! -- nm - Tim Jun 7, 14:29

- 6. Activist judges -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:14
Rupert Murdoch May Be Willing to Go With Comcast Bid for Fox Assets -- (link) - Remlik Jun 7, 14:09 2
- Person who should drop dead tomorrow for $500 Alex. -- nm - Jovian Jun 7, 14:26
- My first thought here is that there's only one person scarier in Hollywood than Rupert Murdoch, and that's Bob Iger. - Mop Jun 7, 14:12
2000 CP Slowbros are apparently "Great throw!" magnets. -- nm - Mop Jun 7, 14:06 2
- It should also be mentioned that with Wailmers everywhere - this is the time to get those excellent curveballs. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:25 1
  - Yup. There it is. Slowbros are rare, but the Wailmer is perfect for "great throw". Just got my 3-in-a-row. -- nm - Mop Jun 7, 14:29
My answer is apparently Tom Cruise at 42, and I've apparently seen every one of his movies. -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:03 33
- I should count the little Asian actor who shows up in every movie as "Asian Bad Guy #2" -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:44
- 24 -- nm - mud Jun 7, 14:33
- I've seen 53 Val Kilmer movies. -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:28 13
  - 61 Bruce Willis movies and I haven't seen Death Wish yet. -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:39 4
    - 53, and I haven't either. We have it on UV, though. - David Jun 7, 14:45 1
      - Yeah I didn't count uncredited or Narrator, but did include voice for animation. -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:47
    - Only 40 for me here...but that might be my highest -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:43
    - 41 for me here too. -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:42
  - Wow - only 17 for me and nothihng since Kiss Kiss Bang Bang -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:30 2
    - There's a few actors that could have been up there but drop off the Earth for me, like Nick Cage. -- nm - Reagen Jun 7, 14:36 1
      - Yeah, wow - I was at 26 for Cage when he dropped off the edge. That's crazy. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:40
  - The surprise here is that Val Kilmer has done 53 movies. - David Jun 7, 14:30 3
    - I wouldn't exactly say done, Bob. One of them was a western where most of the time he played a dead man being transported on the back of a horse. -- nm - Max Jun 7, 14:33 1
      - I'm only at 31 for Kilmer. -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:42
    - he has been around since the early 80's really. -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:32
  - that's a lot of crap! -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:30
- 25 for me - but that's probably pretty high on my list. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:12 14
  - Did a quick run through of Sam Jackson and I think I was at 38. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:18 1
    - 40 for me. -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:22
  - I one upped you with 26 -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:16 11
    - which is tied with Kurt Russell movies I have seen. -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:19 3
      - I only get 19 there. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:21 2
        
        I count 30. I've seen a lot of those early Disney movies. -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:24 1
        
        I have not. I've also dropped some series like the Fast and Furious series. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:26
    - That was Top Gun. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:18 6
      - But you've totally seen Losin' It, right? -- nm - David Jun 7, 14:18 5
        
        Hmmmm...when I look it up, that sounds familiar. So, maybe I need to up my count by 1. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:20 4
        
        To a certain extent, what happened to Long is the fate that Roseanne somehow avoided for 20 years. - David Jun 7, 14:21 3
        
        I think she really thought that she was the reason Cheers was so great. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:24 2
        
        One of my favorite entertainment anecdotes ever is that the writers kept bringing Frasier back because they knew Long hated that character. - David Jun 7, 14:25 1
        
        Wow - I did not know that. And then to think that Frazier went on to have what, 10 seasons of it's own? nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 14:27
- my guess would be that would likely be the case for many of us. -- nm - groiny Jun 7, 14:08 1
  - He really does define our generation of Hollywood. - David Jun 7, 14:18

      - Someone actually did get a shiny karp at like 4:03 -- nm - ty97 Jun 7, 13:48 1
        
        It's been 50 minutes - I can't believe I haven't seen a pic of a shiny Cloyster yet. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 13:50
- Happy Brooklyn-Queens Day! -- nm - Krusty Jun 7, 13:33 1
  - you all can keep your zubat meganest :) -- nm - ty97 Jun 7, 13:38
- And I guess now's the time to use these stupid Star Pieces -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 13:19 2
  - yup, especially when you have eggs about to hatch -- nm - ty97 Jun 7, 13:20 1
    - Hmmm...I'm 1.5 kms from hatching 5 eggs. Sweet. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 13:21
- And just like that...2 legendary raids will hatch by me in the next 20 minutes. -- nm* - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 13:09 2
  - Will probably still be ho-oh since the eggs spawned before 4pm ET -- nm - ty97 Jun 7, 13:11 1
    - Yep - they are. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 13:25

- obligatory link to Big Boss Man by Jimmy Reed -- (link) - peglegpete Jun 7, 13:08 [youtube]
- I hope so -- nm - prayformojo Jun 7, 13:05
But the Ditto quest tho -- nm - SyrDragon Jun 7, 12:27 22
- for special or field research? - ty97 Jun 7, 12:28 21
  - special so all these events with the increase spawns isn't helping any -- nm - SyrDragon Jun 7, 12:40
  - 3 rare candy is nice though. -- nm - Qale Jun 7, 12:33 19

        Nice work. -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 12:36 15
        
        I only play haphazardly. I'd never go out of my way to play like real addicts I know... -- nm - Qale Jun 7, 12:37 14
        
        I'm just spoiled living in Manhattan, so easy to play here -- nm - ty97 Jun 7, 12:43 12

- Nice! -- nm - znufrii Jun 7, 12:37
- Sweet! I hope they cast Diva. -- nm - Krusty Jun 7, 12:23 3
  - Casting for this should be interesting. The ages of the main characters will likely mean a relatively unknown cast. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jun 7, 12:40
  - They will if they're smart. -- nm - Incredibarons Jun 7, 12:27 1
    - you guys are so cute and sweet. -- nm - Diva Jun 7, 12:40
