#16: NO (to verify this, I searched on imdb.com and looked at the "genre" listing for all of the movies he was in as an actor and not had "Western" listed--I cannot testify that I know enough about every movie to say yes or no past that).

Mustang · 08-03-2009, 11:31 PM

I had an E'fn INCREDIBLE Guess..

But I was wrong.

Lorena · 08-03-2009, 11:57 PM

So here's what we got:

- White Male
- Dead
- Non-athlete
- Born in the US
- Arguably an entertainer
- Not a politician
- Born before 1950
- Did not die in July 2009 or in the 2000s
- Not famous for being a "TV star"
- Was born in a state traditionally known as in the North(as per Civil war split)
- Was known for more than one type of entertainment (musician, singer, actor, etc)
- Did not have a nickname that referred to a physical trait (height, size, eyes, etc?)
- Had a movie based on his life.
- Did not star in a movie that would be considered a "Western" by the common definition.

Tasan · 08-04-2009, 12:45 AM

Man, I thought I had this...one stupid thing kicked my idea out. I can't even think of any good questions.

Lorena · 08-04-2009, 01:10 AM

I had a really good guess but the "born in the u.s." thing threw it out the window.

Was he a director?

Tasan · 08-04-2009, 01:15 AM

I thought about asking that question, but it seemed a tad too broad. Too many actors direct.

Tasan · 08-04-2009, 01:16 AM

Oh and the "born in the North" got mine shot down. It was good, too.

Lorena · 08-04-2009, 01:22 AM

Yeah I thought so too but not knowing is driving me nuts! I have 1 pretty good guess and it's gonna depend on the answer to that question.

MJ4H · 08-04-2009, 01:29 AM

#17: YES

MJ4H · 08-04-2009, 01:31 AM

Lorena has correctly guessed the mystery person. If others want to play it out, feel free. Otherwise, Lorena is up!

Mustang · 08-04-2009, 08:13 AM

Doh

Maybe I shouldn't have posted that yet.

Lorena · 08-04-2009, 10:29 AM

Any other guesses?

Mustang · 08-04-2009, 10:32 AM

Once it is guessed, probably can just start a new game up.

MJ4H · 08-04-2009, 10:36 AM

That's cool. The correct answer was Andy Warhol. Lorena is up.

Lorena, I guess you can go ahead and start a new round, or if you'd rather pass, you could just let someone else who was active in the first round have it.

Mustang · 08-04-2009, 10:44 AM

My guess was Andy Kaufman.

The 'tv star' thing threw me off. I was trying to find out if the actors career was primarily defined by TV.

boberot · 08-04-2009, 11:11 AM

Wow.

Helluva guess . . . .

Tasan · 08-04-2009, 11:13 AM

Mine was Truman Capote, but he was born in Louisiana. Great job, Lorena.

Tasan · 08-04-2009, 11:16 AM

For the uncultured among us, what was Andy Warhol's biopic?

Mustang · 08-04-2009, 11:22 AM

I think there are several variations done not to mention other films like Basquiat that have portrayals of him in there.

Lorena · 08-04-2009, 11:25 AM

I'ma be sorta busy today so whoever wants it.. have at it.

I Shot Andy Warhol.

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 08-04-2009, 11:31 AM

Interestingly enough, I Shot Andy Warhol, Basquiat, and Factory Girl could all be argued to be biopics about an acquaintance of Warhol.

MJ4H · 08-04-2009, 11:36 AM

This is what I used to say yes to that question:

Documentaries

The 2001 documentary, Absolut Warhola was produced by Polish director Stanislaw Mucha, featuring Warhol's parents' family and hometown in Slovakia.^[61]
Andy Warhol: A Documentary Film is a reverential four-hour 2006 movie by Ric Burns.^[62]

edit: primarily the second one as the first one was about his family.

SirFozzie · 08-04-2009, 11:55 AM

Ok, I'm going to take Lorena up on her offer, and start the next round:

It is a PERSON.

RomaGoth · 08-04-2009, 11:56 AM

Anyone have a new one?

Doh, Sir Fozzie answered my question a minute before I asked it.

Mustang · 08-04-2009, 12:01 PM

Suggestion for the next go around. Take the 5 most common questions and only allow 2 of the 5 during any round

F/M, Living/Dead, Born/Dead timeframe, etc. That way, we have to be more creative in trying to figure it out.

larrymcg421 · 08-04-2009, 12:26 PM

Is this person a politician?

I dunno- it did take 17 of 20 questions to get the last one and this one isn't looking much different.

SI

SirFozzie · 08-04-2009, 01:16 PM

Ok, I'm back.

RomaGoth · 08-04-2009, 01:20 PM

Is this person an entertainer?

Define Entertainer, please.

edit: #6: YES (by this definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entertainer)

gstelmack · 08-04-2009, 02:52 PM

7. Does anyone on FOFC openly lust after this person?

Well there goes my Kathy Griffin guess, especially after the "entertainer" answer.

RomaGoth · 08-04-2009, 03:18 PM

#8 is she overweight (i.e., fat)?
