Four For Friday - With A Kindness

#1 & #2 - This former A list and now a B- always movie actress always likes to pretend she has the perfect marriage. Whenever she does press for a new movie like she is now she always talks about how she and her husband do everything together and seems to forget they spend about two months a year together and those are the most miserable two months of the year. Oh, her husband is an A list writer.

#3 & #4 - Kindness - These two actors were once co-stars in television and at least one movie. One is now A list and only does movies, while the other has dropped from an A list movie star to a B- list will take anything actor. Anyway, the two were at a charity sports event recently and at the event was an auction where someone could win a round of golf with the pair. Well, instead of just one winner, they surprised the audience by inviting everyone who bid on the item to play golf with them. They paid for everyone to play, a party after and gave a $100,000 donation to the charity who had sponsored the original auction.

    nice get, jw12. That has to be Michelle Pfeiffer.

    #3-#4 - I hope get revealed for being amazing. Are we to assume both male? Part of me wanted to say Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepard, and I don't know why.

    ReplyDelete
  4. JW12 great guess, David E. Kelly is also a writer besides producer and director.

    3 & 4 are tough, I wanted to say someone from SNL like a Dan Akroyd, Steve Martin, Bill Murray?

    ReplyDelete
  5. #3 And #4
    Clooney and Wyle
    "Fail Safe"

    ReplyDelete
  6. #3 and #4
    Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari

    ReplyDelete
  7. 1&2 - don't know, but Michelle seems to fit.
    3&4 - I'm thinking Cybil/Bruce (Moonlighting, etc) too. Not sure whether a female is referred to as actor sometimes or always actress, in which case I'm way wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  8. 3&4:Kevin James/Ray Romano?

    ReplyDelete
  9. Clooney and Wyle are an interesting guess. I like it, I'm just not sure Wyle was ever an A-list movie star?

    ReplyDelete
  10. I like the Clooney guess so it may be him and someone from ER.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I.W. - yeah, I read that to fast.

    ReplyDelete
  12. i am completely stumped on all, but the kindness peeps are awesome. go them!

    ReplyDelete
  13. leslie mann and her man

    is michelle B-?

    ReplyDelete
  14. sorry- i just saw "former A list"- clearly not LM

    ReplyDelete
  15. Tom Hanks & Peter Scolari (sp?) of Bosom Buddies. Peter has been ina couple of Tom things so I know they are still in contact

    ReplyDelete
  16. Bill Murray and Eddie Murphy for my far out guess.

    ReplyDelete
  17. #1/2:i like michelle pfeiffer guess!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Michael Douglas (who has a celebrity tournament) and Martin Sheen for #3 and #4?

    ReplyDelete
  19. WTF is up with Blogger? Sheesh.

    Anyway #1 & #2 could be Michelle Pfeiffer and her hubby.

    ReplyDelete
  20. @bip--

    I thought the same thing! Just don't know what Hanks movie that Scolari would've been in, though...

    ReplyDelete
  21. I don't think Cybil and Bruce for 3 and 4...I don't think they did/do get along very well. And although I really have no idea, Cybil doesn't strike me as a very nice person...not nice enought to do this. Just not feeling it.

    ReplyDelete
  22. 1 & 2= Garner & Affleck, of course!

    ReplyDelete
  23. @ selenakyle - Scolari was in "That Thing You Do" as the tv show host.

    I like the Clooney/Wyle guess

    ReplyDelete
  24. Peter Scolari was in That Thing You DO! with Hanks, (Hanks produced and had a role in it) and the Polar Express (also with Hanks)

    ReplyDelete
  25. Do you really think Michelle is B-?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Scolari's not a former A-list movie star, though, which would rule him out for this.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Long time lurker here. My beginner guess for 3 and 4 is Will Smith and Alfonso Ribeiro, don't know he qualifies at B- though, probably not. But both definitely golf and are still good friends.

    Kevin James, Greg Kinnear, Bill Murray and Andy Garcia are all also golfers.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hi,

    Long time reader, first time poster. Could #3 & 4 be George Clooney and Anthony Edwards since Anthony started out very strongly in movies?

    ReplyDelete
  29. #1 & #2 - Michelle Pfeiffer and David E. Kelly.

    Clooney and Wyle totally for #3 & #4 - Clooney's definitely got the bucks to pay for a group of people for golf & give a big donation like that.

    ReplyDelete
  30. The Clooney/Edwards guess is good, but I'm still not sure about the A-list for Edwards. He was in some hits though(Revenge of the Nerds, Top Gun, etc)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I don't know who #3 and #4 are, but I'm guessing they were on SNL. Maybe Adam Sandler and ?

    ReplyDelete
  32. 1)Def Michelle P and David E. Kelley

    ReplyDelete
  33. 1. Love the Michelle P. guess.

    2. I like the Clooney & Wyle guess too. I'm hopping on that bandwagon.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Michelle Pfeifer is not now, nor will she ever be, anything but A.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm with Paisley. Maybe Adam and Rob? Sadly, talent doesn't always qualify one for any list... Besides us, who do you think remembers Peter Scolari or his resume (or his GREAT appearance on Letterman)?

    ReplyDelete
  36. the husband is an a list writer; that should be a pretty well known writer. do any of the guesses fit? i have no guess.

    ReplyDelete
  37. pfeiffer and kelly came to me immediately.

    what movie were clooney and wyle in together?

    ReplyDelete
  38. will smith and jada p-smith

    both tv and movies together, they golf and have a charity foundation together.

    ReplyDelete
  39. for 3 and 4, I like the Will/Alfonso guess. Definitely Michelle P for number 1.

    ReplyDelete
  40. #1-immediately thought of Michelle Pfeiffer and David E. Kelley
    #2-no idea, but I think the way I read it was the 2 actors were together on a show and since the show, one is now A list, the other, takes what he can get?? with those clues, Clooney and Edwards seem like a good fit.

    ReplyDelete
  41. thanks captivagrl. i'd totally forgotten that.

    as for pfeiffer being A, she was nominated for an oscar 3 times, but she's been off the radar a long time. so i don't know about that.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Oh wow, I never caught that Peter Scolari was in Polar Express. Heck, I cried so much at that movie who knows who was in it!

    Never saw TTYD.

    It would make me feel good if this was the Bosom Buddies guys. That was one of my favorite shows at that time.

    ReplyDelete
  43. No one's nailed the kindness yet (the B-list guy USED TO BE A LIST), but it doesn't matter to me; I'm crying so hard, I don't even care who it is. What wonderful, wonderful men! I wish I could squeeze them!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Anonymous4:22 PM

    Ok, everyone's guessed Michelle Pfeiffer.

    As for 3&4, if it is George Clooney and whomever else because they (Wyle, Edwards) have never ever been A list in movies.

    My guess is either Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler. It's a tough call on who #4 is as they were once A list. But my guess would be SNL cast members.

    Of course Bill Murray or Steve Martin are good guesses too (for #3).

    ReplyDelete
  45. I don't think Michelle Pfeiffer for #1, for a couple of reasons.

    "Whenever she does press for a new movie" - she hasn't worked that much in the past few years, just saw her on Letterman for the first time in a very, very long time just this week.

    Michelle a B-? I don't think so. She's pretty much perennially A.

    I do, however, like the Jennifer Garner guess. Remember, Affleck has an Oscar for screenplay. And he's always gone, in Vegas or Boston or anywhere far away from his wife and kid(s).

    ReplyDelete
  46. I can see Michelle Pfeiffer being B+ list because she wants to be. There's nothing wrong with moving away from the spotlight after you've made a kagillion dollars.
    I just don't think she's bordering on C list status.

    ReplyDelete
  47. MICHELLE PFEIFFER HAS PUT HER FAMILY FIRST...BOTH SHE AND HER HUSBAND ARE EXTREMELY SHY...I JUST DON'T SEE THIS AS HER....

    ReplyDelete
  48. #3,#4 - Will Ferrell/ Mike Myers?
    movies: The Thin Pink Line, Austin Powers
    They both play golf

    ReplyDelete
  49. Now for # 3 and 4. I think we should concentrate on # 4. Who used to be A list movies and now will take anything?

    I think was "A list movie star" rules out Wyle, Scolari, Kevin James, Alfonso Ribero, Jada, and Rob.

    Chris O'Donnell? although I think Ent would have said something about television, since he has a new series.

    I kind of like the SNL idea. But you still have the A list thing.

    hmmmm. that burning smell is me thinking. maybe if I have a cocktail (it's that time in the east!) it will come to me.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Robert Downey Jr and Anthony Michael Hall (maybe former A lister because of his work in Vacation movies and in John Hughes stuff?) were in tv (Saturday Night Live) and at least one movie (Johnny Be Good) together.

    ReplyDelete
  51. 1/2 is not Jennifer Garner. It states "always movie". Jennifer did several TV shows.

    ReplyDelete

  53. While I really like the RDJ and AMH hall guess, my guess is Steve Martin and Dan Aykroyd. It's floored me that nobody thought of ol' Danny. He was a huge star, did "Blues Bothers" and "Trading Places," "Ghostbusters," and so many more. Now he guest stars in everything under the sun.

    He and Steve Martin co-starred on SNL (most famously as the 'wild and crazy guys.' Precursors to Borat. They were also both in the ill-advised "Sgt. Bilko" movie a few years ago.

    Re: Michelle Pfeiffer: I think the minus sign after the B is a little harsh, but this is definitely her. First of all, nobody else fits, secondly, she is doing press for whatever project she has right now. And she always talks about her marriage! BUT he famously cheated on her w/ Calista Flockheart, back in the day.I've always thought she protests too much.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Pardon my typos 'n' crap. It's Friday night, I'm intoxicated. Guess how?

    ReplyDelete
  55. Michelle Pfeiffer's new movie "Cheri" opens today, so yes she is doing press, and thats why she was on Letterman.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Michelle Pfeiffer can't be #1, for the simple reason that she did several TV shows in her early career. So, she's not an "always movie" actress.

    ReplyDelete
  57. I thought Michelle P for #1

    No guesses on #3 and 4.


    as for MaxG

    You are what hate is, you personify the word. I hope you get banned. Now I shall pray for your sick ass.

  58. I've got no idea...but as a golf obsessive I only wish I was in on the (losing) bidding!

    ReplyDelete
  59. 3&4: Bill Murray & Chevy Chase (snl/caddyshack) ?

    they've teamed up in the past - http://www.charityfolks.com/cfauctions/chase_preview.htm

    ReplyDelete
  60. Who's Max G?

    What'd I miss?

    ReplyDelete
  61. 3&4 I am going to say Steve Martin and Martin Short.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Oh, THAT Max G. What a douche.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Hey, I've been reading this site for a few weeks and love the blind items. QUESTION:

    I've read some comments that mention that he'll reveal some of the blinds? When does this happen and where can I find these reveals?!

    Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Max G? Who is that?

    ReplyDelete
  65. Jesslikesstuff - Enty reveals blinds on New Years Day and 4th of July. To me, those days are like Christmas: I eagerly read each reveal like I'm opening a present. Clearly, I love reveal days.

    Just one more week. Starting my countdown now!

    ReplyDelete
  66. @ HeyThere - Max G is a racist asshole who dropped the N-bomb in a Michael Jackson post. I hope he gets banned soon.

    ReplyDelete
  67. OOH! 4th of July is a SATURDAY, so I will be able to refresh all day! Awesome!


    Enty, since you have to work on a Saturday this year, we'll understand if you have fewer posts next week. Or you can always do it on Friday the 3rd...

    ReplyDelete
  68. Goodgrief, I like your guess, but I don't think Martin Short is a take-anything actor. He still develops his own projects.

    Besides my Steve Martin/ Dan Aykroyd guess, I also like the Bill Murray/ Chevy Chase guess. It may be better than mine....I like the Caddyshack tie-in!

    ReplyDelete
  69. I like the SNL guesses, but I just to want to drop in a little comment about Bill Murray specifically:

    Yes, he's heavily into golf. But I don't really think Murray fits either category of A list or B-list. He hasn't had a huge hit in years (he's sort of art house A list, though.. and A list-for-life to comedy aficionados and Gen Xers), and he's not B list take-anything because Murray is notoriously impossible to get ahold of (won’t return calls, and no agency by choice), and discriminating about what roles he'll take (yeah, he did the Garfield movie-- but who says "discriminating" = "chooses wisely"?)

    ReplyDelete
  70. Oh yeah--one more week, bitches!!! Woohoo cocktails and reveals, my new 4th of July pasttime.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I got up at five this morning to drive 280 miles to the beach. At about 7, I stopped at a restaurant and got some takeout, but it sucked and the baboons behind the drive through window fucked it up. So I did what I always do in that situation: loop around, go through the drivethru again, then throw the fucked up order back at the guttersnipes behind the drivethru window. (I order milkshakes whenever possible for maximum firepower). The gorilla behind the drive thru window threw some of the shit back to me, and since I wasn't going to loop around the drivethru again for another forward compaign, I ate the shit.

    I got into town at about 9, and since then I have been having massive yellow shits which burn my ass ring something terrible because they are jam packed with stomach acid. This shit is loose, and in the toilet bowl it looks like the mushroom plume left by an explosion of a thermonuclear bomb. with the yellow particles of shit being held in suspension in the cool, tidey bowl blue water.

    I usually drink a Coke to sooth my stomach, and pop one or three or seven Pepcid AC's if that doesn't work. The problem with Pepsid ACs and Nexium for that matter are that they make you shit stomach acid. Too much of that shit burns the end of your colon, your ass ring, and your roids.

    I don't want another roid attack. I've only had one and it was more excruciatingly painful than a heart attack. When you see your own blood in the shitter, you feel like you've power crapped an essential part of yourself. Bloody shits look like a goddamn abortion and ass blood smells worse than skunk spray or AXE.

    I'm going to have a huge goddamn water bill this month. It's been a big shitting month. And since I'm so fat that I can only clean my ass after shitting by pressing my anus to a jacuzzi noozle and turning the jacuzzi on, that chews up lots of water.

    ReplyDelete
  72. oh, @ ms snarky...how i love the bunny cookie thief!

  73. Still having yellow, stomach acid turds that burn my asshole.

    I hate myself, but I hate you more.

    ReplyDelete
  74. hey Ent, could you do something about this guy? The last thing we need on your fab site is some jerk trying to ruin it.

    ReplyDelete
  75. I am going to call(or email) National Enquirer about the blind item #1&#2.
    I know they are not Brangelina but, that would be delicious news.

    ReplyDelete
  76. 1 and 2: Jessica Lange and Sam Shephard

    ReplyDelete
  77. 1&2: Amanda Peet and David Benioff

  79. I went to the toilet this evening, strained like Elvis, and finally expelled a few sour, hard yellow shits. The landed into the toilet bowl with sufficient bombast to coat my ass cheeks with shit water. They cleaned up fast, too: two wipes and my arsehole was clean!

    And when I got off the toilet and stared back into the bowl to see what I had created, I saw MsSnarky.

    ReplyDelete
  80. WTF? Please delete and ban...

    Annnyway...

    If you want to stick with the Clooney guess for #3, what about John Goodman? Was he ever considered A-list in the day?

    Also like the Murray/Aykroyd guess.

    Michelle P. is definitely #1.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Well, well, well - aren't some of us just the cleverest? I guess it is summer, and all the obnoxious little delinquent twats are out of school for a couple of months. Perhaps when you go back for your third crack at 9th grade in the fall you can turn your delightful comments in as your "What I Did Over My Summer Vacation" homework.

    ReplyDelete
  82. I would have said Ben and Matt originally, but I don't think they've done TV together. My other guess would be Bill M./Chevy C. or Bill M./Dan A.

    ReplyDelete
  83. third grade? aiming high for that little creative angel, aren't we? I think we should focus on using small sentences with easier words to spell. Obviously, our little angel can't get through 2nd grade, they don't even know what a complete sentence is, and now they stutter as well. Poor, little, angel. Pity this little child, they don't know any better---scratch that, they don't know.

    I'm going with MP for #1 and I like the Will Smith and Alfonso Ribeiro guess for the second half.

    For our little angel:
    The word problem has two parts, okay? Try to keep up....
    For the first part, I think it is Michelle Pfeiffer (don't try to spell it, or sound it out, honey, it's wayyyyy tooo diff---I mean, hard for you) and her husband David Kelley.

    For the second part of the word problem, I think it is Will Smith and Alfonso Ribeiro (don't try to spell it out or even sound it out, you will get a headache!).
    Have a great day, angel. You deserve that much!

    ReplyDelete
  84. Clooney and Anthony Edwards.

    ReplyDelete
  85. What about George Cloony and Elliot Gould for #3 and #4? They were in the first E/R show back in the '80s and Elliot Gould used to be a big name. And they were in one of the Ocean's movies together.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Karmen - Thanks! Hey, July 4...that's soon! ooooh, exciting :). Can't wait!!
