Jack is a great character and actor!

[Taltarzac725]

Jack is a great character and actor!

And what a cool birthday. 4-22. Kind of like mine of 2-24 but backwards. He is one of the actors I would like to meet. There were movie trailers at the Red Lion Inn when we lived in Rohnert Park, CA They had some kind of deal with the Red Lion Inn while they were filming movies in Northern CA. I would often walk my square cocker spaniel Amber around these movie trailers but never ran into anyone with a famous name. Did run into people with non famous names. Mostly we talked about how to avoid the duck poop that was all over the golf course between the Red Lion Inn and my backyard. Not so they could come over. Just that is where they would walk as we were about 300 feet from these movie trailers. Parents lived in Rohnert Park, CA from 1986-1996. Lots of movie trailers had been at that hotel during that period. And they gave me ideas as well with their presence. And opportunities.

Never did hear that Jack Nicholson was one of the actors in these trailers. Others. Yes.

[manaboutown]

Both turned back time.

Their plastic surgeons are geniuses and no doubt quite well off from their remarkable efforts.

I regret not becoming a Hollywood plastic surgeon. My parents did not have the income to see me through that much schooling and training. Oh well...

Would have liked to hear some of the stories about John Wayne. His last movie , The Shootest, was filmed near Reno, Nevada. This was in Carson City, Nevada and other places near Reno. The Shootist (1976) - Rotten Tomatoes (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/shootist/)

Unlike many of the films made in Sonoma County and other Northern California from 1986-1996, I was not busy walking the dog around movie production trailers near Reno like I had in Rohnert Park, CA. These movie production trailers were 300 feet out my backdoor where they were parked at the Red Lion Inn. Stallone sneaked into the hotel dressed in a nun's habit!!!

[manaboutown]

Here is a John Wayne story. 20+ years ago I was in a store in Costa Mesa and overheard a retired policeman tell the sales clerk about how he once stopped this old beat up station wagon with an old bald guy driving it for running a stop sign. He asked for the man's license which identified him as Marion Morrison. The cop then said "I don't know you but you sure look familiar." The guy responded "Ya ever been to the movies?" in his John Wayne voice! The cop then realized who he was as Wayne wore a toupee in films. The clerk then asked the cop if he gave Wayne a ticket. The cop responded "Nah, I let him go."

Had not known John Wayne was bald. Kind of paints a new picture like Sylvester Stallone sneaking into the Red Lion Inn with a nun's habit. The press did not park out at the hotel. It was not an item well known to anyone but people who lived in Rohnert Park, CA that some movie studios had contracts with that hotel or something like that.

Lots of movies were and still are filmed in that area of Northern CA. Stallone was in Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot (1992) - Rotten Tomatoes (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stop_or_my_mom_will_shoot/) which has parts of it filmed in that area. Terrible movie by-the-way.

I am not sure why we celebrate birthdays of deceased people. Their birthdays cease when their lives cease.

It is a way to remember them and think about their work. Think Christmas, for instance, as well as Easter Sunday.

Really enjoyed many of his movies and I had e-mailed him for years back in the early 2000s. Not sure if he ever replied or not as I was sending a very large number of e-mails out in the early 2000s. These e-mails did have a topic of quite a lot of interest to Scientology. Many were critical of psychiatry and its use for social engineering rather than healing or at least coping with mental illness. They do go way too far though IMHO in their criticisms.

[ColdNoMore]

Cruise's religion, IMHO, is nothing but...a wacky cult. :oops:

But even more galling to me, is casting him as...Jack Reacher. :swear:

Reacher is 6'-5"...250lbs.

NOT 5'-6"...150lbs.
