    Sean Connery to announce retirement.

    Connery to Announce Movie Retirement at AFI


    Sir Sean Connery is expected to officially announce he is quitting Hollywood when he collects his Lifetime Achievement Award at the American Film Institute later this year. Connery, who is recuperating after undergoing surgery to remove a Kidney tumor in January, plans to spend his time writing books instead. He says, "I have retired for good. It's been a bit rough since Christmas but I'm perfectly OK and I feel well. In fact, I'm working on a history book." Harrison Ford, meanwhile, is campaigning for the actor to return to The screen for the upcoming fourth Indiana Jones movie.

    Musta been LXG that drove him away. How the Hell did they ever get him to join that movie in the first place.
    Marshall: MILSWANCAs?
    Ted    : Wait, I can get this. Mothers I'd like to sleep with and never call again.
    Barney: Circle gets the square!

    LXG has got to be the worst movie of all time. Connery is the man, sad to see him go out after that piece of shit.

    "They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett

    The greatest was the parody they kept doing of him on SNL in their Celebrity Jeopardy bit. Classic.

    Alex Trebek: [ interrupting ] Right, Mr. Connery. why don't you pick?

    Sean Connery: It looks like this is my lucky day! I'll take "The Rapists" for $200.

    Alex Trebek: That's "Therapists." That's "Therapists," not "The Rapists." Let's skip "Therapists" and try "Household Objects", for $400. And the answer is, "You usually drink water out of one of these." [ Sean Connery buzzes in ] Sean Connery.

    "You wouldn't have known that without that little card in front of you! THIS GUY READS FROM A CARD!"

    "You drink water out of one of these. Sean Connery?"

    You ****asses better not be dissing on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. That movie is so good it could make an average man ejaculate in his pants just by watching it.

    Burt Reynolds: Yeah well, why don't you give me, ah.. why don'tcha give me Ape Tit for $200.

    Alex Trebek: It's not "Ape Tit." It's A Petit.. [ shakes head ] ..never mind! Let's just go to "Animal Sounds" for $600. This is the sound a doggy makes. [ Connery buzzes in ] Mr. Connery.

    Sean Connery: Moo. [ buzzer sounds ]

    Alex Trebek: No.

    Sean Connery: Well, that's the sound your mother made last night! [ laughs ]


    Alex Trebek: Okay, that's not necessary. [ Reynolds buzzes in ] Burt Reynolds.

    Burt Reynolds: Who is, ah, Scooby Doo? [ buzzer sounds ]

    Alex Trebek: No.

    Burt Reynolds: That was a funny dog, Scooby Doo. He drove around in a van and, ah, solved mysteries.

    Alex Trebek: That is incorrect.

    Burt Reynolds: No, that's correct. I remember he had a pal, Scrappy Doo.

    Alex Trebek: No. [ Stewart buzzes in ] French Stewart, the sound a dog makes.

    French Stewart: Um.. [ breathes ] ..who is John Caffney and the Beaver Brown Band, thank you very much, I'll take Animal Sounds for $800 please.. [ buzzer sounds ]

    Alex Trebek: No! Good Lord! We would've accepted "bow-wow" or "ruff"!

    Sean Connery: Ah, ruff. Just the way your mother likes it Trebek!

    [The real Alex Trebek enters.]

    Real Alex Trebek: And so this was Final Jeopardy. And what a ride it has been, from Burt Reynolds to Minnie Driver, but boy, oh boy, those celebrities did not know the right answers to any of your questions.

    Alex Trebek: No, they did not. They were very stupid.

    Real Alex Trebek: You got that right.

    Sean Connery: Well, well, two Trebeks. I feel like I'm in a Raisin Bran commercial: "two scoops of fruit".

    Real Alex Trebek: Back off, Connery. I don't have to take that from you.

    Sean Connery: I guess it's true, old married couples do start to look alike.

    Alex Trebek: Okay, please. From all of us to all of you, good night.

    Real Alex Trebek: Good night.

    I have them all on my computer, including the one when Will Farrell returned to host SNL. That one was Connery, Bill Cosby, and Sharon Osbourne. Quite entertaining.

    I only have one and it was pretty funny. I should download more of those.



    BTW: back to the topic. If Connery is going to "retire", how the hell is he doing to do Indiana Jones 4?

    Who said he is? He's just trying to be lured in by Ford.
