Name That Movie!

[Big RR]

And BB has it; I guess it's not as obscure as I though it was.

And I would have liked to have had a chance to peel the antibodies off of Raquel.

[Bicycle Bill]

Well, it might be obscure to some people, but given my liking of Asimov's writings I made sure that I saw that movie.

Now, here's your next challenge:

Her:  No, please, not tonight.  Maybe tomorrow.
Him:  Oh, my dear ________ (redacted because it was a dead giveaway).  You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays.  I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering.

I'm out of this one, but I'd bet someone gets it pretty quickly.

Does it rhyme with anything?

Is it "Oklahoma?"

Is it "Oklahoma?"

Does what rhyme?  The thing I edited out?  No.
And no, it's not "Oklahoma".

[MGMcAnick]

It's from "The Music Man" which was close to Oklahoma since it was set in Iowa.

[dales]

"Eraserhead"?

Well, one I've seen. And also acted in the musical on stage (I was Salesman #3 on the train, as well as a couple other bit parts.)

[Bicycle Bill]

MG has it.  Just saw it one of the re-run channels (Retroplex?) last night.  By the way, River City was actually a fictionalized version of Meredith Willson's hometown of Mason City, IA.  They used to have a big celebration there every year.
And now I think I realize what you meant by "does it rhyme with anything", Ray.



But MG did spell it out, so — maestro, here's the baton; lead away!

... And now I think I realize what you meant by "does it rhyme with anything", Ray.

Good. A little slow on the uptake but at least you got it. Big RR got it right away. I didn't want to say 'Music Man' so soon as to ruin it for others.

OK, MGMcA, what's next?

[MajGenl.Meade]

I didn't want to say 'Music Man' so soon as to ruin it for others.

Yeah, thanks Ray. If would have been ruined for me if someone had got the answer before MG did. The day would have collapsed. Probably would have needed surgical intervention. I hoped it would go on day after day with more and more clues until the last clue was "The M*sic Man" and I might have got it.

Now my dreams lie shattered in the dust of history

Maybe I'm reading this wrong Gen'l, but the tone of that post seems just a tad insincere....

[MajGenl.Meade]

Your error is "a tad"

[MGMcAnick]

OK, let's try this one. "This life's hard man, but it's harder if you're stupid!"

I hope it hasn't been done before, but I don't want to look back through 55 pages of movies to see.

[RayThom]

OK, let's try this one. "This life's hard man, but it's harder if you're stupid!"

"Charly"

[MajGenl.Meade]

Das wesw?

[MGMcAnick]

Charley is a good guess, but not the movie in question.

[Lord Jim]

I know the answer to this one, but I recoil from giving the answer until there's been another clue...

It wouldn't be a very friendly thing to do...

[Guinevere]

Tease.
