The "He/She was in that?" Thread

RainMaker · 01-04-2010, 04:05 PM

The Hayden Panettiere thread made me think of this. She was in Remember the Titans as the little girl.

RainMaker · 01-04-2010, 04:06 PM

Peter MacNicol who played Tom Lennox in 24 and Dr. Larry Fleinhart in Numb3rs was the bad guy in Ghostbusters 2.

Mustang · 01-04-2010, 04:10 PM

Elijah Wood in Back to the Future 2

Jughead Spock · 01-04-2010, 04:10 PM

Kevin Costner was one of the revelers in Night Shift.

George Clooney causes much conflict with me. I want to hate him, but he also seems like a cool guy. That was a very "punch me in the face" picture of him. Must be the hair.

She was in Malcolm in the Middle a few times as well. That show is my guilty pleasure, I don't know why.

I was going to mention this. I also have come to really love this show. It helps that I grew up with two brothers and no sisters.

Tim Robbins was in Top Gun. I didn't realize that until about 2 weeks ago

QuikSand · 01-04-2010, 10:21 PM

This movie landed right into my 16 year old wheelhouse, and I suspect after seeing it about 9 times on late night HBO, I was probably still unaware that there was "another girl" in it.

Guess she did okay for herself over time.

I did not know this. I will never be able to look at her the same again as all I see now is her in that role. Looked at a few pictures of her in a bikini and what not and couldn't do it. I had to stop.

It was a Disney movie and a by-the-numbers sports flick.

I ran across "Thrashin'" the other day, and was surprised to see Josh Brolin looking almost exactly the same as he did in No Country for Old Men.

Senator · 01-04-2010, 11:13 PM

Don't forget Brolin and crew in Goonies.

Brad Pitt had a 4 episode arc in "Dallas":

stevew · 01-05-2010, 01:40 AM

James Franco was in a 2 month story arc on General Hospital. His character name? Franco!

Those were the days!

stevew · 01-05-2010, 01:47 AM

Actually, Franco is actually pretty brilliantly bad on GH. It's been a highlight of my afternoon recently.

3ric · 01-05-2010, 03:12 AM

We know about Wil Wheaton, Corey Feldman and River Phoenix in "Stand by me", but not until recently did I find out the chubby kid is Jerry O'Connell, who played Detective Woody Hoyt in "Las Vegas" and "Crossing Jordan"

Blackadar · 01-05-2010, 07:11 AM

Interesting timing. I was watching Witness last night and was like, "isn't that Viggo Mortensen?" Sure enough, it was.

I think it was an SNL skit where he said, "Hi, I'm Jerry O'Connell"
"Who??"
"Jerry O'Connell, the fat kid in Stand By Me"
"Ohhhh..."
