Rewatching Older Films And Realizing Famous Actors Were In Them The Whole Time Appreciation Thread

[Neuromancer]

This is a great ep. I saw it as a kid and still remember it vividly.
- 5 friends have a weekly poker game
- One guy is absent and someone mysterious takes his place
- The New guy this night is winning crazy, he gets three of a kind every hand. More specifically 3 6s every hand.
- The other players start to notice and ask him what's the deal?
- Dude admits he's the devil or grim reaper and he came to play for one of their lives.
- I forget how they figured it out but the old white guy in the picture winds up being the unlucky mark.
- He gets to pick the type of poker they play for his life and he picks "Low-ball!" Where the worst hand wins.
- His friends comment good idea since the devil gets 3 6s every game
- They start playing stud and they all turn their cards over in the end.
- The unlucky b*stard gets 4 5s!
- The devil gets his 3 6s but his last card is like a tarot card and it just says 'death' with like a picture of the grim reaper on it.
- Everyone is sad for their friend and start saying their good-byes
- But one of the friends (not pictured) who has shown to be the dumbest in the group fixates on the 'death' card.
- He asks, "What kind of card is this?!" and begins to reach for the card.
- The devil screams, "No!" and as the dumb guy touches the card it turns into the 4th 6 in the deck.
- The unlucky guy won the card game of his life! The devil concedes and leaves.
- The guys continue their card game and treat the guy who unveiled the devil's trick like a star.

Do they rerun the 80s version of the Twighlight Zone? I used to watch it every Friday night as a youngster.

Was watching one of those god awful Halloween sequels AMC runs every year and didn't expect to see Paul Rudd as grown up Tommy Doyle.

Probably been posted already but I had no idea Gary Oldman was the deformed, wheelchair bound gimp in Hannibal the first time I watched it.

Never realized Paul Rudd was in Clueless. Truly I’ve never watched it before until recently.

I noticed her in a few of those classic episodes. Her father is Stan Lathan who produced Def Comedy Jam. It did look like Spike was hittin that tho. Or tryin to.
