Random movie "aha" moment (1 Viewer)

[Leroy Hoard]

"Pee Wee's Playhouse" is now on Netflix so I showed the pilot to my kids. Cowboy Curtis comes onscreen and I'm scratching my head trying to figure out why I recognize him...

Holy #### it's a young Laurence Fishburne.

Edit: credited as "Larry Fishburne".

Lawrence Fishbourne was in "Apocalypse Now"

Well at least Fishbourne never got typecast.

Plot twist

Very random...

Just learned today that the guy who played Tradd (top middle) in "Lords of Discipline" is the son of pop artist Roy Lichtenstein.

 

[Ghost Rider]

I just figured out that the actress who played Nancy Taylor in Groundhog Day is the gal on Seinfeld whom Jerry couldn't kiss after he found out she had once dated Newman.

I haven't seen it for years. I'm sure I recognized him at the time and found it humorous. I just don't remember.

My bad.

Well I'll be damned. She never had big face time in tremors but I've seen that movie like 50 times and never noticed.

Any time you see Anthony Michael Hall in a new movie now, it's an "aha" moment because he looks so different.

He was the security guy in Foxcatcher at the estate.

[Bonfire]

Just caught The Ice Harvest on netflix, and the guy from all the Sonic comercials is one of the major background characters (a cop). Once I realized was hard to not imagine him firing off food related puns and the like.

I remember reading that awhile back. I guess nepotism doesn't always work in Hollywood - not much of a career beyond Johnny Lawrence's butt buddy.

Can we apply "aha" moments from TV in here also?

If so, I just noticed that an episode of the TV show "Castle" (Swan Song) had, as one of the band members, the guy who played Gareth in "The Walking Dead".

It is great, in a formulaic 80s TV show kind of way. And I mean that in the best sense. It fits in with Magnum P.I., Simon & Simon, and shows like that.
