OK, I admit that because it was bugging me I did have to look it up, but I believe the one you're thinking of is:
Malietoa Tanumafili II of Samoa 1939-Present.
There are actually a surprising number that ruled for over 60 years though. Hirihito ruled for 64 years for example.
Add either Victoria or George III to those two and that should make it three...

I was going for Hirohito. Since you've mentioned him, Victoria and Louis XIV (not George III though), That's three.
The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

Yay me! Even if I did cheat slightly!
OK, name three celebrities (other than the regular cast members, natch) who played cameo roles in South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut.

Well, I remember them doing a big thing about Brian Boitano, but I don't think he played a cameo role.
And to get this thread going again, I'll cheat and look it up.
Eric Idle, Dave Foley, & George Clooney.
Name 3 sites of past winter Olympics.

You were, but in this game, if there is no doubt that your answer is correct, you do not have to wait for confirmation.
Although looking at your answer, you are incorrect in that Atlanta hosted a summer Olympics, not a winter Olympics. Give one more winter Olympic site and then post your name 3

Well, the idea was to give a wrong answer. Hopefully someone else would come up with the right one then. Just trying to drum up some more chatter on this particular thread.

Name three different lead action-hero characters from three different movie franchises who were each played by three different actors in three different films, generally without much of an internal explanation (ie, not because he was a child in one film and an adult in the next, a la Darth Vader, although I confess that the age of the actors did have an impact in one of the cases I have in my mind--although from what I understand the previous actor had still been offered the role first).
Phew. Does that make sense?

James Bond (the example you cited being Sean Connery, I believe)
Batman (tho' it's four different actors now)
Superman (Does G. Reeves count? I believe he made a movie before the tv show)

I wasn't counting Superman or George Reeves simply because his movie wasn't part of the same series as Christopher Reeve or Brandon Routh. I guess it depends on your definition of a franchise. Batman and James Bond are what I was thinking of, as well as one other. I suppose it's open to debate as to whether this third example are all in the same "continuity" or not, but the movies featuring all three actors were all done by the same producer, and within a few years of each other. The only thing that makes it a bit tough to all fit together is that the most recent one features the youngest actor, and obviously takes place years earlier than the others...

Well, I think I know the one you want:
Bond (Connery/Moore/Lazenby/Dalton/Brosnan/new guy)
Batman (Keaton/Kilmer/Clooney)
Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin/Harrison Ford/Ben Affleck)
Name three DC-or-Marvel characters with the power of bouncing.

Bouncing Boy, natch.
And, depending on how you define "bouncing" ... Batroc the Leaper and the Tumbler.

I define 'bouncing' as 'exactly like, or almost exactly like, Bouncing Boy's superpower'. Acrobatics are not the same.

Bouncing Boy, Speedball (From Marvel's New Warriors), and Plastic Man. The other two I had in mind were Pinball, who I believe was in Squadron Supreme, and an old Batman villain called the Bouncer.

seeing how you weren't sure on Vigilante, I'll let you know that is correct. Adrain Chase (as opposed to Greg Saunders the original Vig) was a DA and thus a lawyer.
Also the original Air Wave was a DA too. In a recent (about a year or two ago) issue of Batman/Detective, Barbara Gordon claimed to have gotten a law degree. However she acted very unethically for a lawyer.

Manhunter (from the current series) is also a lawyer. Plus it's a brilliant series so everyone should be buying it.
