Need the name of a John Lithgow movie...

Ahnkosis · 05-15-2008, 11:10 AM

I saw a movie on TBS the other day which I cannot remember the name of.

It had John Lithgow in it and he was on some Runaway Train in the northern part of the US/Canada. I do know two things however:

1. It is not the movie "Runaway Train" with Jon Voight.

2. It is not the movie "The Abyss" (either regular or special edition).

Any help would be appreciated!

I still think it could be.

Distant Thunder? Distant Thunder (1988)

It was the only thing I could find on imdb that seemed to fit the bill.

It isn't Under Siege 2 I hope.

Can someone explain the whole "The Abyss" meme?

Well since John Lithgow wasn't in Under Siege 2, I think you are safe.

Wow, that is money. I need to watch the special edition now.

I wouldnt call it an internet meme just yet. The abyss thing is basically an in-joke exclusive to this forum is it not, or did it start up at 4chan or elsewhere

I thought I've seen it pop up in 4chan once or twice, hence calling it a meme. I could just be making things up though.

That is a home grown FoH™ original. Special thanks goes to Goliath.
