I thought this would be an interesting topic, so here goes:
I happened on Platoon, which was on cable last night, and started to watch it. As I was watching, I noticed at least three actors in the movie who have worked with Charlie Sheen in another movie. First and probably most obvious is Tom Berenger, whom Sheen shot in the end and who ended up being his Cleveland Indians' teammate in Major League two years later. I thought that was pretty funny. Then, you have David Keith, Sheen's buddy who a few years later became his worst nightmare as a sanitation inspector in Men At Work. And there's John C. McGinley, who worked with Sheen the following year in Wall Street.
So, have you guys come across occurrences like these in the movies you've watched?
Also, I started thinking about the actors in my DVD collection. For us HT enthusiasts, we all probably have several "Ah-nuld" flicks in our collection. That's pretty obvious. But what about a guy like Bill Paxton? I was fairly surprised that he happens to be in many movies I own: Aliens, True Lies, U-571, Twister, etc. I can probably name a few more if I think really hard, but it's still early.
Then, I discover I have at least two movies with Giovanni Ribisi: Saving Private Ryan and Lost In Translation.
So, I thought it'd be fun if you all can think about your movie collections and come up with some names that you wouldn't have expected to be in so many of your DVDs.
