Who Is That Guy?
To find the last time we played Who Is That Guy?, you would have to go back to October 19. The corn was high in the fields, the litluns were a month back into school, and Grandpa was just getting sentenced for the crimes he perpetrated against those lovely sororety girls back ion 2004. Good times, good times.
Dmorris, Paul Mitchell of Two Dogs fame, and Nicoleall knew that the Who is That Guy? guy was none other than Lance Henriksen. Marc in Calgary, Godless Commie, and Wolfie had no idea it was Lance Henriksen, and that’s the reason why, to this day, I still mock and ridicule those three men. I mean, it’s Lance effin’ Henriksen, man!
Today’s mystery character was born in 1954 in a country we Canadians like to call “Canada”. Canada is a Cree word meaning, “Those who will come from far away to collect government cheques.” I have to say, the Indians really had us pegged from the start.
He played the President in National Treasure, he was in Thirteen Days, and played someone or another in the newest Star Trek movie, which, I have to say, is a darn good flick.
He was born in Quebec to a French mother and a father who was born in British Columbia, meaning, he probably likes to get high and then throw temper tantrums. Cuz west coasters are stoners and the French have nasty tempers. Nasty tempers, but beautiful hair. It all makes sense.
I can’t think of anything else to tell you about this guy, because I don’t really know anything else about him. Hmmmm, let’s see - he was also in Firehouse Dog and Capote, and I believe he started out his acting career in the movie First Blood with that stuttering half-wit Sylvester Stallone.
That’s all from memory, so I might have a few things screwed up, like the First Blood info, but since I refuse to Google his name up, or check any sources to verify this information, this is all you are going to get.

Bruce Greenwood. He also played a weirdo Revenue Canada tax auditor who hung around peeler bars in Exotica. Despite the setting the movie was boring as hell.

Dammit, I actually knew two in a row. And I knew him from the damn Judds movie. Avoid that one at all costs, really.

The bit about ‘First Blood’ is going to be valuable when Bruce gets his own category on Jeopardy. He rocked as Capt. Pike!

while he does have “french hair”, and my intention there isn’t good, I haven’t seen a single movie you list here, nor have I seen any of the Star Wars series.
In fact I doubt I’ve even seen a trailer for that junk. I just don’t get that garbage. I’m just gonna’ count myself out on this “Who is That Guy” series, and you just continue to not buy my drinks in local bars, we’ll get along fine.

I’ve seen a grand total of one Star Wars movie and one Star Trek movie, but I’ve seen every Chris Farley flick and use to have a dog named Rex.
I once owned a Camero and dated a broad named Trixie.
What’s that about buying me booze?

Yer all wrong. It’s Lance effin’ Henriksen’s older brother!
(Or maybe his older sister - it’s so hard to tell these days ….)
