I remember watching that once and thinking that they hadn't thought it through. Once they limited the number of deaths the sense of menace evaporated. I did like the big gold cross at the end though.

YoungWillz 21,050 Posted May 1, 2018 Pointless had a final round where one of the categories was the cast. Needless to say, after doing the list so recently, I walked a couple of pointless answers. I should go on the show... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if they brought up stuff nobody knew like Coronation St*, they'd be able to sneak through using their brains/logic, I'd assume. * 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,584 Posted May 1, 2018 Maybe they should have a deadpoolers special: Podium 1: Lardy & LFN Podium 2: Toast & MPFC Podium 3: MSC & YoungWilz Podium 4: Cat O Falk & Bibliogryphon First round people who have appeared on The Deathlist.... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,050 Posted May 1, 2018 Well, that would be the first time I would have a podium place..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handrejka 1,904 Posted September 6, 2019 That's sad news. The Poseidon Adventure is another of favourites. She was also in this which inspired a Carpenters song and I have to confess that was the first thing I thought of. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0617035/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_71 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,346 Posted February 17, 2020 American actor Hal Holbrook turns the grand old age of 95 today! Thanks for the like @msc but I assumed he starred in the Poseidon Adventure because you mentioned him in this thread but just checked and can't see that he did!!Oops a daisy!? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speaking of which, Hal Holbrook is still alive! That surprised me when I looked it up when The Fog was on a few weeks ago. Yes, Gooseberry, I watch The Fog every Hallowe'en and am annually impressed by Hal Holbrook's continued survival. Now hopefully he doesn't follow the lead of Nicholas Parsons who played his role in the Dr Who homage/rip-off of The Fog, The Curse of Fenric! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hah, looking back its a reply segue - Poseidon Adventure/the Dr Who Christmas special that blatantly ripped it off/Fenric who does the same of The Fog/Hal Holbrook still being alive - rather than him being in the film. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My error lol!Just deciding if I should delete or leave it up given its harmless and for the sh*ts and giggles of someone being very self important and serious posting on the thread to discipline me, admonish me and smack my bottom for upsetting the flow of the thread!

Gene Hackman , Pamela Sue Martin and Eric Shea the last three left from the Poseidon Adventure now. Would be a fairly big surprise if Hackman is not the next one to go.

Gene Hackman (presumably 2025?)
