"If this map isn't genuine...if you've pulled a fast one..."

Folds map and glares at camera...

"Joan Wilder. You, and your sister......CAN GO!"

It was the delivery that made it memorable. It made a ho-hum line into a real snapper. Pun 100% intentional.

Exactly. I haven't seen that movie in years, though it's one of my favorites, but I still remember that delivery, and him. Fine actor, RIP.

Bernard Hill has passed away at 79.

Saw that news this earlier this morning and was bummed to learn of it. Besides Lord of the Rings and Titanic, I actually quite enjoyed his role playing Paul Bettany's dad in Wimbledon.

Bernard Hill has passed away at 79.

That hurts. He WAS King Theoden, and played him as a king who was very decent and good, even in a cast filled with characters of that description. RIP to him.

Los Angeles Entertainment Reporter Sam Rubin has died of a heart attack at 64. This one is bad for me; I've watched him nearly every morning for years. He was...fun. Upbeat. But he still gave a fair review. If he didn't like something, he'd say, and why, but never in a mean way. Sniff....

RIP to Sam Rubin.
