Cerrano = Palmer
"I like Jesus very much, but he no help with hitting a curve ball."Thus spake Pedro Cerrano in "Major League."
I had one of those AHA! moments yesterday when I realized that Pedro grew up to become President Palmer on "24." My son will have that feeling in a few years when he realizes that Han Solo IS Indiana Jones. By the time he's old enough to see "Bladerunner," I think he'll have it figured out.
Have you ever had one of those moments? Have you ever pointed at the TV and shouted, "Hey, that's ..................!!" ? Usually it happens when you're watching an old movie on cable, one you've seen a dozen times, and you notice for the first time that it's Charlie Sheen who's making the moves on Ferris's sister. And it always creates strange scenarios in your imagination: "Honey, why is Josh Lyman running from Robocop?" "Well, dear, for the same reason that Frodo is watching Marty McFly play that video game."
Aha.

Recently saw the guy (Bill Paxton) from "Twister" on a commercial. They actually used clips from the movie as the "older" Bill Paxton promoted Toyota I think.
Who knew Count Rugen (Christopher Guest) from The Princess Bride could play banjo (A Mighty Wind)? I wonder if that sixth finger helps at all.
Cecil, I saw that commercial. They've also done one with Ben Stein from Ferris Bueller. He stops in the middle of calling roll to pitch Direct TV. Pretty cool.
