* HeyItsThatGuy: Film/LawrenceOfArabia runs a hotel, and the guests include [[Film/PoliceAcademy Carey Mahoney]], [[Film/NationalLampoonsVacation Ellen Griswold]], that guy from ''Film/SexLiesAndVideotape'' and the Film/BrideOfChucky (or, if you prefer, the voice of [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Bonnie Swanson]]).
