00:00We're talking about knowledge of the future in movies, YouTube channel, Easter Egg Psychic.
00:05In this video, I'll take a look at actor Tim Matheson.
00:09He was in a 1991 made-for-TV horror film, Sometimes They Come Back,
00:15based on the 1974 short story by author Stephen King.
00:20This was planned to be a segment of the 1985 film Cat's Eye.
00:26However, it was developed into a stand-alone feature project by producer Dino De Laurentiis.
00:34The cast included Brooke Adams, Chris Dimitri, and William Sanderson.
00:39Matheson earned two Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series
00:46for his recurring part as Vice President John Hoynes in the NBC-TV political drama series The West Wing.
00:54This cast included Martin Shin Roblo, Moira Kelly, Allison Janney, and Richard Schiff.
01:02So I took a look at Tim Matheson.
01:04Years ago, I thought Matheson may resemble actor Harrison Ford.
01:09Recently, I took a closer look in National Lampoon's Animal House in 1978.
01:14I thought he may resemble actors Jeff Bridges and Gary Oldman.
01:19These two are in the cast of the 2000 political drama The Contender,
01:25along with Joan Allen, Christian Slater, Sam Elliott, William Peterson, Saul Rubinick, and Mariel Hemingway.
01:32Reportedly, Bridges, Oldman, and Harrison Ford were considered for the part of Ray Kinsella
01:38in the 1989 sports fantasy drama Field of Dreams.
01:42This part eventually played by Kevin Costner.
01:45Alright, connections.
01:46The 1985 comedy thriller Fletch.
01:49Tim Matheson was in this along with Chevy Chase, Dana Wheeler Nicholson, Gina Davis, Joe Don Baker,
01:56M. Emmett Walsh, George Wint, George Weiner.
01:59Reportedly, during the developmental stages of the project,
02:03Jeff Bridges was considered to play the lead.
02:06Both Gary Oldman and Tim Matheson were in separate episodes of the Fallen Angels
02:12television series that ran between 1993 and 1995 on Showtime Cable Network.

02:32Oldman won a Cable Ace Award Outstanding Actor for this performance.
02:36Tim Matheson was in Season 1, Episode 6, entitled Since I Don't Have You, along with Gary Busey and James
02:45Woods.
02:45This episode also received two Cable Ace Award nominations, Woods and Busey, for Outstanding Actor.
02:54My YouTube channel is Easter Egg Psychic.
02:56There I go back and look at movies and television from the past.
03:00I analyze these for possible references to future media.
03:03These may appear in the form of anecdotes, idioms, anagrams.
03:07Hidden in the subtext of the work in question, I also use an unconventional method
03:12where I look at the likenesses of the actors.
03:17And what I've found is you can take the likenesses, match these up to some of the anecdotal items,
03:22and show past, present, and future information about actors and other personalities
03:28that may resemble the personalities in the movie or television episode that you're watching.
03:35My email contact is easteregguy, that's G-U-Y, at yahoo.com.
03:42Thanks for watching.
