IMDB Fascinates Me

I could spend hours on IMDB (Internet Movie Database). Just ask Mike. I find it facinating the things you can learn about actors and the different roles they played. For instance:

This guy (Eric Allan Kramer)



Plays the dad on a popular Disney show called "Good Luck Charlie."



But did you also know he played Little John in the movie "Robin Hood: Men in Tights?"



And this guy (Chris Pine)



More recently known for playing Captain James T. Kirk in the 2009 Star Trek movie



Also played Nicholas Devereaux in "The Princess Diaries 2."



And that Chris Pine's dad is this guy (Robert Pine)



Whose been in just about everything (at least it looks that way)But I found it interesting that he played Sgt. Joseph Getraer in the show CHiPs




And most of the time when Mike and I are watching a movie or tv show I eventually end up saying: "Do you know who that is???!!! It's _________!!!!!" And of course he's impressed with my knowledge... And then I have to go on to IMDB and show him that indeed that guy/girl is so and so.

But about a week and a half ago, we were watching the 2009 Star Trek movie and Mike looks at ME and says "You do know who that is, right?" I had no clue. None. I honestly thought it was just some actor who scored a big part. I'm talking about this guy:


McCoy, Leonard H.





Who is Karl Urban




Who played Eomer in the Lord of the Rings movies.



My husband schooled me. But don't worry, the balance of the universe will be restored soon. We'll watch something in the near future and I'll reveal some really importatnt info about an actor to Mike, and I'll get on the ever trusty IMDB and all will be well.
