Thirty entries locked and loaded. Game On!

 

I don't want to be *that guy* but...the Master List only has 29 entries, so is someone missing or can you not count?

Well you clearly are "That Guy" and my maths A level clearly being put to got use in applying an error bar of +/- 1 to the sum of 27 + 2.

Wait what?  Haha I never realised the first game ended.  Late entry allowed?  I will put 20 seconds of research into it like last time.

Remember you can't pick anyone who's already been picked now.

In case it's gone unnoticed, An Fear Beag provides the first hit for this pool with Chuck Yeager

[YoungWillz 21,058]

Barbara Windsor is a hit for me on this pool I believe, @Bibliogryphon.

[Bibliogryphon 9,588]

So we have a leaderboard with two players on at the moment.

 

@An Fear Beagag

@YoungWillz

 

For Chuck Yeager and Barbara Windsor respectively. 

 

Will there be lots of activity before the end of the year?

Just to note that if Game 1 were still live, @Lord Fellatio Nelson would have gone from no hits to 2 hits in very quick time with the deaths of David Prowse and Barbara Windsor from Carry on Henry - just Leon Greene left! And a few months too late!

Quality post. There are posters hereabouts whose entire output hasn't reached these heights. Bit of self deprecatory humour always makes me smile.

@Bibliogryphon Just a warning I am now Elephant.

Paul Westphal is a first hit for my shameless team that is probably going to turn into "Waiting for Liz" very soon.

The second hit on this slow moving pool but it is looking like a good call from the defending champ. Might he be the first to move into a winning position.

It's the third hit, but hey who is counting?

 

I like slow moving pools. I like not winning.

That's where you're going wrong, it's what I did.

You need to be leafing through American Sports Illustrated and Tea Party Weekly....then see if they've had a bit part in a film.

 

(ducks incoming missiles from GCR).

[gcreptile 10,978]

Well, kind of yes, you go the other way round. Start with a name you know is definitely not going to last. In the first round, I started with Ian Holm, in the second round with Rush Limbaugh.

Then find a movie where you already know that there is a good second name, that was Sean Connery in the first round - and in the second round Paul Westphal, a spectacular find.

The third name, well, it just needs to be plausible. I was lucky in the first round that Katherine Helmond obliged. Now just imagine Liz Sheridan living to 100.

I do that.  Maybe not "definitely", more "feasibly not going to last". 

Where I've obviously gone wrong is starting with an actor. 

Any other approach just seems against the spirit of the game to me.
