Today's Blind Items - Back To The Future
All of these happened in the 1980's.
#1 - This former A+ list mostly television actor wasn't so pious when he was having sex with a co-star. It was only when she stopped sleeping with him that he had her fired.
#2 - This current B+ list mostly television actress who went from hit network show to hit almost television show only had a few lines in this first installment of a long running franchise. She does have a memorable moment from it. She was still miked and this actor who made his living in teen movies started having sex in his trailer. The crew was listening through headphones for about ten minutes before someone went and told the couple what was going on.
#3 - There were so many drugs on the set of this vampire movie that it is amazing it turned out as well as it did. Even more amazing considering that writers were changing things daily to take advantage of the actors that were sober enough to actually film.
#4 - In one of the biggest hits of the decade, the two leads couldn't stand each other. It shows you how good they are at acting because they played lovers. One is still A+ list while the other faded away. It is the only time I have heard about this A+ lister actually fighting with anyone on set. They yelled and screamed at each other. Refused to talk to each other. Our actor held a grudge and basically ruined her career.
moonlighting for #4. Willis and cybil sheppard
ReplyDelete#4 Bruce Willis & Cybill Shepherd in Moonlighting?
ReplyDeleteLost Boys for #3
ReplyDelete#4: Gere and Winger, An Officer and a Gentleman
ReplyDeleteKirk Cameron for #1
ReplyDelete1: Kirk Cameron and Julie McCullough
ReplyDeleteI can see this better than Bruce and Cybill. Cybill didn't have a great career before Moonlighting, but she had an ok one and it was ok afterwards. Debra Winger practically dropped off the face of the earth. Was Richard Gere not yet a Buddhist back then????
ReplyDeleteIf this was them, then I guess Debra had the last laugh, though.
ReplyDeleteShe won an Oscar.
Richard got a gerbil stuck in his ass!
Cybill Shepherd had a succesfull sitcom that ran for 5 seasons so I wouldn't say she faded away. I have no idea who else it could be though.
ReplyDelete1) either Kurt Cameron/Julie mc or Ted Danson/Shelly Long- probably Kurt.
ReplyDelete4)Tom Cruise/KellyMcGillis- Top Gun
3)Lost Boys
2)Corey Feldman/
#3 Lost Boys
ReplyDelete2)Laura Prepon and either Feldman or Corey Haim
ReplyDelete#3 Lost Boys
ReplyDelete#4 Tom Cruise/Kelly McGillis/Top Gun
You'd think Debra Winger for #4 but she hardly faded away and Gere is hardly A+. I'd put him at like A- at best. What's the last thing he did that we all saw? I can't even recall.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying Laura Prepon had sex with either Feldman or Haim? In the 80's? Someone needs to call the police right now.
ReplyDeleteWinger's been nominated but never won.
ReplyDeleteJust to throw it out there:
ReplyDelete#4 - Harrison Ford/Kelly McGillis - Witness
#2 is totally Jane Krakowski & Anthony Michael Hall in the first vacation movie. Famous line: Well, I've French kissed and daddy says I'm the best.
ReplyDelete1) this has to be the holier than Jesus, Kirk Cameron and Julie McCullough.
ReplyDelete2)Who knows
3) The Losy Boys
4) Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah. The hit movie was Splash.
4. Harrison Ford and Sean Young
ReplyDeleteBlade Runner
ReplyDeleteI think no 4 is basic instinct, Michael Douglas and Glenn Close
ReplyDelete#4--It is too bad, if it is true, about what Gere did to Winger. SHE can actually act. Gere is like a plank in everything he does.
ReplyDelete#4 could be Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner in ROMANCING THE STONE.
ReplyDeleteBasic Instinct was w/ Sharon Stone...
ReplyDeleteDid you mean Fatal Attraction?
I agree. Winger rocks. Gere is a douche-bag.
ReplyDeleteThis works because she did basically disappear. Everyone else that's been mentioned went on to other things, with varying levels of success.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if number four is Winger. She ruined her own career by turning down pretty much everything she was offered and having bad taste in the few things she accepted. Winger and Redford hated each other with the heat of a thousand suns on Legal Eagles. He was A+ but it wasn't a big hit.
ReplyDeleteSomeone who was A+ in the 80's and still A+ now is a small club. Ford's a good guess although he had trouble with more than one co-star (Heche and Pitt, among others) in the 90's.
If it is them,it is not a blind. Debra was known very difficult and Gere was very into him.It is in a book on Hollywood 80's movies
ReplyDelete1) Kirk Cameron/Julie McCullough Growing Pains
ReplyDelete2) Jane Krakowski/Anthony Michael Hall Vacation movies
3) The Coreys & Kiefer Sutherland Lost Boys
4) Debra Winger/Richard Gere An Officer And A Gentleman
Fuck me, I'm old
# 4 Tom Cruise/Kelly McGillis in Top Gun is a great guess. Debra Winger, Sean Young and Darryl Hannah basically torpedoed their own careers. Sean by being crazy, Debra by being difficult and Darryl more voluntarily by being more into her activism than the acting, plus apparently she has social anxiety issues and is on the spectrum and was probably happy to leave the limelight. Kelly never had much of a career after Top Gun, the biggest thing she was in after that was the Accused and that was Jodie Foster's movie. Most people don't even remember who the lawyer was.
ReplyDeleteI can't see Cruise normally yelling at anybody since it interferes with the nice guy image he cultivates so that part fits the 'only time' part.
