Yeah, thanks rosemary, it was the first of those guys, the one who played "Kaz."
Ha, Ron Rifkin's imdb page says he is sometimes confused with Joel Grey.

I don't get them confused, per se, but I always seem to forget that Jeff Bridges' name isn't "Jeff Daniels". It takes me a second before I think, "Oh, wait. Jeff Daniels is that other guy."
I often mix Jeff Bridges and Jeff Daniels too. They even look a bit like each other:

They're one of the wolf bands I get mixed up with the wolf bands that aren't Wolf Eyes or AIDS Wolf. I'm clear on those two.
― photoshop your disgusting ass partner into passive-aggressive notes (sarahel), Wednesday, 22 April 2009 19:20 (fifteen years ago) link
For a while it was just Peanut Butter Wolf and Guitar Wolf, and I'd forget which one was Japanese.

on this note, Superchunk / Superdrag / Supertramp. I know who they all are, but still have to think for a second whenever I see any of their names.

I always get this, and I have no idea why because they don't look similar and I'm aware of what films they are respectively in so should never really get them confused.

Ca. 1987, all these TV shows were on the air, none of which I've actually seen:
Cagney and LaceyKate and AllieThe Scarecrow and Mrs. KingJake and the Fatman
Somehow the 1985 movie The Falcon and the Snowman also gets mixed up in there.

Used to have serious trouble with Jean Claude Van Damme and errr, the other guy. I just spent five minutes on Google trying to figure out his name, but whenever I think of a movie he's in, it turns out it's Van Damme!
I will not yield!
He was in something with Henry Ford, I think. Wait, no, that guy's not named Henry Ford... Henry... He was in the Fugitive! Harrison Ford!
Oh for crying out loud, I just clicked through a whole lotta Ford titles on IMDB and still didn't find m... OH WAIT It's Steven Seagal!
That was not worth it at all.
