Okay, Kevin Bacon is not actually involved in this puzzle at all. However, your goal is to use the seven celebreties below to lead you to the seven parts of the set I seek. Name each individual's connection to a part of the set and the name of the commonly known set of seven. (Although not part of the puzzle, I'll award major bonus Kudos to anyone who can link Kevin Bacon to the set!!)

PLEASE USE SPOILERS!

River Phoenix

Sarah Vowell

Michael J Fox

Cheech Marin

Walter Matthau

Adam Sandler

Meg Ryan

Meg Ryan: SLEEPYless in Seattle?

[Guest]

This can't be right

IMDB, there hasn't been a movie with "Bashful" in the title since 1962....

[Guest]

SLEEPY (hollow) MAN

I dont get it, what spoilers? I didnt see anything, what are you talking about?

[Guest]

She means you submitted "HOLLOW Man" without putting it in a spoiler, so people could choose to see it or not as featured below:

Hollow Man starred Kevin Bacon, and Sleepy Hollow starred Johnny Depp, neither of which are on the list.

Right-e-o! Those are indeed the easiest ones. You'll have to dig a little (or a lot) deeper to find the others.

[Guest]

Cheech Marin was in Up In Smoke

---> Smoke makes you cough

---> Coughing and sneezing are symptoms of a cold

SO: Cheech is SNEEZY?

Edit: Or that Up In Smoke is all about marajuana, and another term for weed is dope, so Cheech is DOPEY?

Like that?

Sarah Vowell was the girl in the Incredibles, and that girl was very shy, and shy is like BASHFUL?

[Guest]

River Phoenix--The Mosquito Coast

Sarah Vowell--Man in the Sand

Michael J Fox--Don't Drink the Water

Cheech Marin--Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams

Walter Matthau--Out to Sea

Adam Sandler--Going Overboard

Meg Ryan--???

[Guest]

Nice job. You are right on your second guess!!

Reaching in the right direction!

[spoiler='to clarify:

']Sarah Vowell was the voice of Violet on the Incredibles. The childrens names on the incredibled describe their characteristics. Dash - runs fast. Jack Jack - a Jack of all trades. Violet - a "shinking violet" or...bashful!

Way to go!!

Nope. They don't make a commonly known set of seven.

if you're searching for a Meg Ryan movie with a beach theme, how about "Joe Vs. the Volcano"

[Guest]

Really?! Well, that wasn't where I was going with this puzzle, but that's an interesting bit of trivia if it's true.

[Guest]

Well, then, I'd have to say that since Meg Ryan was in Sleepless in Seattle, and sleeplessness make you SLEEPY, then that cover's that one.

[Guest]

Don't peek if you aren't possitive you know the name of the set!!

5 have been solved. Only two remain: River Phoenix & Meg Ryan. Their connection has NOTHING to do with the title of any film they've starred in. ...And NO GUESSING! I want to know the connection.

I will give more hints if no one completes the puzzle by tomorrow.

[Guest]

Nope. Check the hint above.

[Guest]

Meg Ryan= Sleepy

-because-

In Joe Vs the Volcano (my favorite Ryan/Hanks flick) she was asleep for a good chunk of the time on top of the trunks after the boat sank, thus SLEEPY. ha ha ha ha

Or

River was in Stand By Me with Keifer Sutherland, who was in Flatliners with Kevin Bacon, who was in Sleepers, thus River is indirectly SLEEPY (and if not, I still tied Kevin Bacon into it

)
