Rhindle The Red Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Well, there I went and won Sniderman's last contest and I already have the game! I shouldn't aughta bothered... http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.p...=19195&start=25 Well, here's you're chance to win what I won. (Sniderman will send it to you instead of me.) "Eliminate the middle man (Me)!" Here's the contest (it shouldn't be too hard): I've got a list of 5 actors who all played the same character on TV and in the movies. The character they all played appears in an Atari 2600 title that is loved by some and reviled by others. Two of the actors are dead. One of them died on my 33rd birthday. The other died on Halloween. Name the actors and the character they played. All information can be found in the AtariAge message boards and on the Web. Post all answers to this thead. First to get all five wins. Go. In the making of this film, which deals with a strange and curious subject, no punches have been pulled--no easy way out has been taken.

King Atari Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Dear golly, I don't know. I'm gonna guess Frankenstein (as in Frankenstein's Monster). Boris Karloff Lon Chaney Bela Lugosi Peter Cushing Christopher Lee Those probably aren't right, I'm not even sure if half of those people actually played the monster.

maibock Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Well here goes my wild guess. At first i thought the A-Team but there were on 4 so my next guess would be Flash Gordon who did both the movies and tv here are the cast: Buster Crabbe [Flash Gordon] Jean Rogers [Dale Arden] Charles Middleton [Ming the Merciless] Priscilla Lawson [Princess Aura] Frank Shannon [Dr Alexis Zarkov] I've spent waaaaaaay too much time on this, I sure hope I'm right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keir Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 I'm guessing that the game is Raiders of the Lost Ark and the character is Indiana Jones. The actors are: Harrison Ford River Phoenix Sean Patrick Flanery Corey Carrier George Hall (I) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhindle The Red Posted January 15, 2003 Author Share Posted January 15, 2003 *phew* I woulda never guessed that sh*t in a million years! I would have - and did. True, true. I must state publicly that Snider-man had, in fact, gotten the answer right in his PM to me. I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank him for going along with this little piece of nonsensical fun. I'm mulling another contest (more complicated, with a better prize & with more personal involvement from me) so stay tuned, all! Yeah you would. Maybe you would.

Keir Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 I meant to verify that I got the cart as soon as I got it, but it slipped my mind. Anyway, thank you Philip and Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
