wow, great guess, but not where I was going...

never thought of that though, I wish that was the answer!

quick hint:  think like fluffy for this one!




LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 7:38:02 AM)

Since we're on a new page, I'll repeat the quartet for us all:

Motorcycle
Record Press
Surfboards
Flowershop




fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 4:53:40 PM)

Think like fluffy, He says?
 
Things that vibrate? 

Things you can do naked? 
 
OK, a Surfboard is a brand of MODEM!  Are they all Modems?




HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:11:26 PM)

oh, GREAT GUESS, fwuff-o-matic!   [:)][:D][:)][:D]

AGAIN, I shoulda taken such things into account...  [&o][:o][&o]

I am very literal.

Thus, A clue

Fwuff wuvs media, this is a media based selection of "commonalities"...




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:21:20 PM)

All things that you can find in the Yellow Pages?

The phone book counts as media, right?




HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:27:46 PM)

yes, *sob*  but *sniffle* I am being VERY fwuff-oriented and literal...

fwuffy likes movies, TV shows, musicals, novels, comics, I was trying to do something nice her Majestic Fwuffiness, so it's along those lines...

quick hint secondary:  they will not be contained within one comic, one song, one film,etc.

but they will ALL be media based




sunshinemiss -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:40:53 PM)

Is Annette Funicello involved in this?  Or Frankie Avalon?




HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:49:09 PM)

ohhh!  ohhhh, that's a "no", but a REALLLLL DAMMMMMNNNN GOOOOOD CLUE!

Follow Sunshine's lead, everyone!

Yay sunshine!  that's  A BIG GOLDEN BRICK on the Yellow Brick Road here!

hurrah for smart and creative and lovely CM wimmens like Fluffy and Sunny!

My day is better for both of them being in the world!  [:)][:)][:)][:)]




sunshinemiss -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:54:21 PM)

Are they on the covers of an artist's records?

*really racking mah brain




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 9:55:10 PM)

I was thinking maybe Keanu Reeves.  He was a surfer in one movie and I believe he had a motorcycle in another.  The only flower shop that comes to mind is My Fair Lady




HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 10:12:31 PM)

aghhhhh!

okay, BIG hint:

these will have NOTHING TO DO with any "performers" I CANNOT STAND.

Bananu-Ranu (his nick namehere in Oz), Paris Hootchie, Lindsay Low-Talent Hand Job, NONE of these skanks will have anything to do with this one, if your guess inclusdes them, EXTIRPATE THAT GUESS!  [:)]




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/9/2009 11:30:52 PM)

I know this is way out on a limb, but were they all integral elements of Roger Corman films?




LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/10/2009 11:03:49 AM)

Might sturdy limb, Panda. I googled "Roger Corman" with each one of the quartet and as far as I can tell, you got it!

Now, just how in the heck didja' do that?




LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/10/2009 1:32:23 PM)

Please express your sympathy to SweetSub1957 here:

HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/10/2009 11:43:30 PM)

like the states one, it's a wee bit more specific than that, however...

spirit of the law outweighs the letter of the law, and so...  Corman is very, very close.

But if  I split hairs, the game shall be wrongfully delayed in its progression, and thus:

we give it to Panda Pando Pandi,

the commonalities were things/sets FEATURED in musicals based on Monster, Horror or Psycho films....

yes, my Flaming Queen is burning bright.

Pandomatic, aim that sub-auto at some commonalities, and FIRE, BOY, FIRE!




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/10/2009 11:51:34 PM)

Damn! I'm a little surprised. I thought "Little Shop of Horrors" was a strong fit, and "The Wild Angels" almost as solid, but beyond those two, it felt a little tenuous. Pretty damned good one, Senor HiltonHater.

OK, let's keep it in the 60s, and stick with the media-entertainment theme.

Bruno
Pal
Suzy
Bamboo Harvester

I locked on to "Little Shop of Horrors" right away with the flowershop clue, and realized that at least 2 other clues fit at least one other Roger Corman film, "The Wild Angels," in which Peter Fonda demonstrated that his father didn't pass on too much talent in his DNA, and zero ability to pick quality scripts. I took a flyer on the "record press" clue, thinking that might possibly fit a more obscure Roger Corman - Peter Fonda film, but was less certain on that one. Just took a shot in the dark from that point, is all, and apparently got pretty lucky.




HatesParisHilton -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/11/2009 12:02:21 AM)

the motorcycle was from Rocky Horror, the surfboards from Psycho Beach Party, the flowershop (as you said), record press was from Phantom of the Paradise (since that is a GOOD version of the Phantom, whereas Andrew Lloyd Wanker's version is NOT)...




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/11/2009 12:07:58 AM)

Damn! I did miss by a mile, then. I figured weird, offbeat films with Corman as the central connection. Either way, it was  a hell of a quad. How's your 60's American trivia?




LanceHughes -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (10/11/2009 12:15:44 AM)

Okay, okay, I googled the very strange "bamboo harvester" and got Mr.Ed - the horse as an answer. So, I'll just take a flyer <and a dangerous one at that> and say "Horses that played Mr.Ed"

Why "dangerous"? I have no quartet prepared..... arrrrrrrrgggh <as Lance runs off to see what he can find>

I was strongly thinking "pandas eat bamboo, bamboo must be harvested, and WTF does that have to do with 60s?>
