    What university was Animal House originally scheduled to be filmed at, until the school president said no?

    What do you consider the end of it, the end of contract players?

    They wanted to shoot at Faber, but the dean thought it cast the school in an unfavorable.

    I believe that's the implication in the item I read.

    Oregon State. A much-prettier campus, BTW.

    Incorrect.
    The movie was set to be filmed at the University of Missouri until the president of the school read the script and refused permission. It was filmed at and around the University of Oregon in Eugene instead.

    Well then after Mizzou turned them down, Oregon State did as well.

    From my understanding they sent out feelers to a lot of schools, but Oregon was the only one that didn't ask to see a script beforehand.

    I lived a half-block from the Delta house my freshman year. Had several classes in the room where Donald Sutherland lectures about Milton. The strangest one -- I interviewed the University President in his office, and realized I was standing in the exact spot where the horse dropped dead. They let the film crew use the actual president's office for the scenes with Dean Wormer.

    Back to the questions:
    Only two actors have appeared in every Star Wars film, including the forthcoming Episode VII. Who are they?
    Two others have appeared in five Star Wars films. Who are they?

    Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker have been in all of them.

    Episode VII will be Peter Meyhew's fifth. Not sure who the other with five would be.

    Two Best Picture winners are names of cities. Name them.

    Casablanca and Chicago. There’s three if you count Cimarron, which is the name of at least a couple small towns.
