One unlikely movie similarity. Two facts. There are 45 unlikely movie similarities between 1982 and 1993 (90 facts) that point to the end of Poltergeist as having the same weight as Schindler's List.

Did you know that there are a few crossovers between Mrs. Doubtfire and Tootsie. My favorite one is The Tale of the Frog Prince episode of Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre because Teri Garr who did Tootsie starred in that episode with Robin Williams who did Mrs. Doubtfire. What is your favorite crossover between Mrs. Doubtfire and Tootsie?

And in 2000 two man-in-drag comedies were released within a couple months of each other: Nutty Professor 2 and Big Momma's House. 'Twas a golden age for the genre.
