Ha Ha you used Bacon.

We should make that an additional part of the game - must use Bacon. These hard ones are fun. I'll try it later if no one else has.

Matthew Perry in Fools Rush In to Frank Sinatra in Ocean's Eleven

[AIjunkie]

This was tough, but I even managed to slip in the "newer" Ocean's Eleven:

Frank Sinatra/Richard Conte in Oceans Eleven to Richard/Robert Duvall in The Godfather to Robert/Elliott Gould in MASH to Elliott/Geroge Clooney in Ocean's Eleven (remake) to George/Salma Hayek in From Dusk to Dawn to (finally) Salma/Mattnew Perry in a very cute movie called Folls Rush In.

Now that my brain is fried! Try this one:


Scott Baio in The Bread, My Sweet to Brendan Fraser in With Honors.

[Amanda]

Okay, this is my first attempt at the game, so forgive me if I suck at it:

Scott Baio was in "The Bread, My Sweet" with Kristin Minter, who was in "Home Alone" with Joe Pesci, who was in "With Honors" with Brendan Fraser. (Did I do that right?)

If I did, how about...

Vincent Gallo in "Buffalo '66" to Peter Gallagher in "Watch It"

[hazyshadeof]

Vincent Gallo was in Buffalo 66 (great Indie movie by the way) with Kevin Pollak who was in The Usual Suspects with Suzy Amis who was in Watch It with Peter Gallagher.

Gregory Peck in To Kill a Mockingbird to Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction

[TARmaniac]

Gregory Peck/Robert Duvall in To Kill a Mockingbird (both were great in this)
Robert Duvall/John Travolta in A Civil Action (great book)
John Travolta/Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction

Mel Gibson in Braveheart to William Hurt in The Big Chill

(btw, no use of Kevin Costner in The Big Chill - he's not listed in the credits so he's not 'in' the film with William Hurt)
