fair warning: this entry took almost 4 hours to write!

I have a few favorite things in my life right now. They include NCIS, lists, watching movies, and IMDB.com. So I thought, why not combine all of these things and make a fantastic list of movies (actual movies, not made for TV movies or TV shows) that the cast of NCIS has starred in, researched on IMDB.com! I know, I'm a nerd. But I'm a nerd who has fun!

And now...

The List of Movies that Cast Members of NCIS Have Been In!

Mark Harmon Movies
1. Weather Girl- plays Dale (I know nothing about this movie, except that it also stars Tricia O'Kelly, who played Nicole on Gilmore Girls)
2. Chasing Liberty- plays President James Foster, aka Mandy Moore's character's dad
3. Freaky Friday- plays Ryan, aka Lindsay Lohan's step-dad-to-be and Jamie Lee Curtis' love interest (who I think bears a striking resemblance to Lauren Holly)
4. Local Boys- plays Jim Wesley {never seen this movie; apparently it's a movie about surfers... mmmm...}
5. The Amati Girls- plays Lawrence, who is undoubtedly a minor character, since his character wasn't even listed on the first page of the cast on IMDB
6. I'll Remember April- plays John Cooper (also stars Haley Joel Osment... he's the only other person on this cast list who I've heard of!)
7. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas- plays Magazine Reporter at Mint 400 (I wouldn't bother watching this one since Mark's character doesn't even have a name, except that the cast is full of really fantastic actors, such as Johnny Depp, Tobey Maguire, Christina Ricci, and Cameron Diaz!)
8. The First To Go- plays Jeremy Hampton
9. Casualties- plays Tommy Nance (I've never heard of this one, but Mark Harmon's one of the leads, and it looks like a decent storyline.)
10. The Last Supper- plays Dominant Male (this one looks a little odd, even though it stars Cameron Diaz)
11. Magic In The Water- plays Jack Black (no, not THAT Jack Black, but this movie also stars Joshua Jackson a la Dawson's Creek)
12. Wyatt Earp- plays Johnny Behan (also stars Kevin Costner, Dennis Quaid, and Gene Hackman. OMG! Dennis Quaid was Lindsay Lohan's dad in The Parent Trap, and Mark Harmon was Lindsay Lohan's step-dad in Freaky Friday! Small world!)
13. Cold Heaven- plays Alex Davenport
14. Till There Was You- plays Frank Flynn
15. Worth Winning- plays Taylor Worth (his hair isn't gray in this one! Woah! Granted, it's from 1989...)
16. Stealing Home- plays Billy Wyatt
17. The Presidio- plays Jay Austin (also stars Sean Connery and Meg Ryan)
18. Summer School- plays Mr. Freddy Shoop (directed by Carl Reiner. I saw an interview on youtube of a clip from The Bonnie Hunt show where Mark and Carl meet up again and talk about this movie. Classic 80's humor, including a surfing dog. Also stars Kirstie Alley, not playing the dog... haha!)
19. Let's Get Harry- plays Harry Burck Jr.
20. Tuareg- Il Guerriero del Deserto- plays Gacel Sayah (not sure what he's doing in this movie)

10. Almost Famous- plays Alice Wisdom (I know I've heard of this movie, but I can't think of where, and I've never seen it)
11. Civility- plays Carolyn
12. Hand On The Pump- plays Hi-Girl
13. Hoofboy- doesn't say what she plays, but the movie is about a guy who has hooves for feet and the women who won't touch them. Uhhh... WHAT?

David McCallum Movies
1. Cherry- plays Mammy
2. The Titanic Chronicles- plays Host/Narrator
3. Healer- plays The Jackal (reminds me of this past week's episode of Greek)

25. Robbery Under Arms- plays Jim Marston
26. Hell Drivers- plays Jimmy Yately
27. The Secret Place- plays Mike Wilson

Sean Murray Movies and TV Movies
(I gave him an exception because if you don't count TV movies for Sean, he has 3 movies and that's just sad)
1. Spring Break Lawyer (TV)- plays Nick Kepper
2. The Sleepwalker Killing (TV)- plays Christopher Lane (also stars Hilary Swank)
3. Fall Into Darkness (TV)- plays Jerry (also stars Tatyana Ali)
4. For My Daughter's Honor (TV)- plays Ralph (also stars Gary Cole, Alyson Hannigan, and Tom Virtue of Even Stevens)

10. Too Romantic- plays Tim (another Tim!)
11. Backfield in Motion (TV)- plays Joe Jr. (also starred Roseanne and Tom Arnold)

Cote de Pablo Movies
1. The Last Rites of Ransom- plays Bruja

That's it for Cote's movies. She hasn't done much since she's fairly new to acting.

This is an extremely long list, and as much as I love Brian Dietzen, Lauren Holly, Sasha Alexander, and Rocky Carroll, they're just going to have to wait until round two. Now all I have to do is watch as many of these movies as I can find! Some of the older ones that David McCallum was in might be hard to find. Ditto to all the really crappy TV movies that Sean Murray did.

Kudos to anyone who actually read through the whole list!
