Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. I was in this teeny-bopper movie with Alicia Silverstone. She played a spoiled teenager that pretty much went shopping all the time. She fell in love with her ex-step-brother, who is played by Paul Rudd. What movie was I again, not in the lead role?

Answer: Clueless

Wallace played Mr. Alphonse Hall in this cute movie. Wallace was born in New York City on November 12, 1943.
2. Hey Woody, Hey Buzz, I wanted the lead role in this movie, but nope. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen both got the lead roles. What movie were we all in together?

Answer: Toy Story

Sure, I got to be Rex the dinosaur. Big deal, actually I was the biggest of all the toys. Did you know that Wallaces' dad, William, was the editor of the New Yorker from 1952 to 1987? Pretty cool huh?
3. What movie do you hear the words of Vizzini, "Inconceivable!" uttered?

Answer: The Princess Bride

I loved saying the word "inconceivable" all the time. But then that Inigo Montoya guy said "he did not think that I knew what that word meant."
You know what? Even that Inigo guy had a bigger role than I did in this movie. Not fair, that's "Inconceivable!"
4. Sure, I get to work with Uncle Martin, played by Christopher Lloyd. I got to work with Tim, played by Jeff Daniels. I even got to get to chummy up with Elizabeth Hurley and Daryl Hannah in this movie. But top billing, nope, again I'm down on the totem pole. What movie is this that I'm referring to?

Answer: My Favorite Martian

There was one time in the movie that Daryl Hannah was wearing a "Incredible Hulk" t-shirt. Did you know that Bill Bixby played in both "The Incredible Hulk" and "My Favorite Martian"?
I did play the character Arnie in the T.V. series "Taxi" twice. That's the same T.V. show that Christopher Lloyd was in. He gets to be a top billing, but nope, not me.
5. I had the greatest time working with the people at the Mirage Casino in Vegas. I got to meet all the dealers there. I myself was a dealer in this movie with the Griswold's. What movie did I play a blackjack dealer?

Answer: Vegas Vacation

Yes, I was taught to deal by actual dealers at the Mirage Hotel and Casino. I got to take Chevy's money at the tables all the time. I even got to meet a character named Linkan there too.
6. Oh sure, I got to work with a large cast again. Nope, didn't get top billing here either. They gave that to Kyle Howard and Jamie Lee Curtis. I did get locked in the basement with all the other parents though. What movie is this that I'm in?

Answer: House Arrest

Kevin Pollack is considered another "bridesmaid" too. He's been in over 50 movies, as the second fiddle. Kevin was born in California and first started his career in comedy. I personally liked him in "That Thing You Do!" In "House Arrest" he portrayed Jamie Lee Curtis' husband, Ned. Cute movie, but don't do this at home!
7. They didn't want me in the first movie. Nope, not even for a little role. But they come begging for me in the sequel. I got to work with Dom DeLuise in this movie. But he got to play the role of Itchy in the first one too. What cartoon movie is this?

Answer: All Dogs Go To Heaven 2

Actually there are quite a few big name stars in this cartoon movie. Ernest Borgnine, Charlie Sheen, Bebe Neuwirth and even Sheena Easton used her voice in this flick.
Adam Wiley was nominated for the Young Artist Award for this movie, for his performance in a voice over for a young artist.
8. Of course, Tony Danza has the lead in this flick. He sure comes to me for help with his teenage daughter though. What movie is this that I play Doctor Fishbinder?

Answer: She's Out Of Control

Oh, I love Tony Danza. "He's The Boss" in my books any day! Angela was such a lucky woman to have him as her housekeeper and yes, lover too. What a cute show. I wish they'd have Samantha getting married and a sequel to the series.
9. Can you believe that I play another Doctor in this movie? But this time it's time for me to deliver Dudley Moore's baby. Um, by which wife? What movie is this?

Answer: Micki + Maude

Dudley Moore had it made in this movie. Two wives... so maybe not quite had it made. He was married to both Amy Irving and Ann Reinking in this bizarre movie. Cute, but definitely bizarre.
10. Okay, so let's see. I was born in New York in 1943. My first role in the movies was as Jeremiah in the movie "Manhattan". Come on add them up, worked with Dom, Tony Danza, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jeff Daniels and Tim Allen. Who am I?

Answer: Wallace Shawn

I'm not sure which movie that I enjoyed most with Wallace. It's probably "The Princess Bride" because he is so perfect. Or at least he thinks he is. "Vegas Vacation" would have to be my second favorite for personal reasons. I love the Mirage Hotel! Where else can you see dolphins, sharks and exploding volcano's in one spot?
Well, thanks for playing. Remember, sometimes it's best to be the bridesmaid and not the bride.
