I've tried soooo hard to figure this one out. I've checked every forum imaginable and have got this question posted at most of the popular quiz sites. Here's some help for those who want to continue the search.

Character name: Josh Baskins
Actor name: David Moscow

Computer game script:
Scene 1
You are standing in the cavern of the evil wizard. All around you are
the carcasses of slain ice dwarfs...Melt the wizard. What do you want
to melt him with? What do you think I want to melt him with...(Josh,
don't forget to take out the garbage) Just a second! Throw
the...(Josh, did you hear what your mother said?) One minute! (Josh
Baskin!) Your hesitancy has cost you dearly. The wizard, sensing your
apprehension, unleashes a fatal blow from the ice scepter. With luck,
you will thaw in several million years. Great.

Scene 69
You are standing in the cavern of the evil wizard. All around you are
the carcasses of slain ice dwarfs....Melt wizard....What do you want to
melt him with? ...Throw thermal pod.

jayride

Corran
So what is it then?

ToMacco
Zelda? What in god's name?

zimbo
I'v seen it only an hour ago and I can't remember,but you want that somebody remember if he only knows that there played Tom Hanks.

ToMacco
. ... . .. .. . . . . . .ahhh. . . . what?

LanceWindu
I'm confused as much as you are To.

Hey zimbo...can you please proof-read what you type before you post it? Lots of your stuff is just gibberish. No offense.

One thing I noticed. It looks like it's an Apple ][ game?

CharlesForbin
I checked the movie credits, and no credit is given to the game publisher, which there would (should) be if it was a real game. There are these credits:

Computer Image Designed by SMA Video Inc. (now SMA Realtime, Inc.: http://www.smavid.com/)
Computer Display Engineered by David Satin (David Satin is now EVP, Secretary, and Treasurer of SMA Realtime, Inc.)

So, I think it isn't a real game, and instead a special effect.

mrgone4662, or someone else, do you have the name of the game?

mrgone4662
Man, that really bursts my bubble. That game looked cool.

Someone please tell me it was real.

CharlesForbin
Sorry to burst your bubble sad . It did look like a cool game.

Perhaps it was based on a real game. . .

wtf?? It was a real game! My friends and I played it! It was on the Apple ][.

I will get to the bottom of this!

The game is called "Wizard and the Princess" and was released by Sierra On-line back around 1980 for Apple ][, Commodore64, and Atari 400/800. It was released for IBM PCs as "Adventure in Serenia". It was included in the "Roberta Williams Anthology" which is still available at the Ye Olde Infocomme Shoppe which can be found through any search engine.

mrgone4662

Maybe at time I was not in a mood to watch movies(yes it happens to us sooner or later)
But I felt this was not one of Tom Hanks best movies.He has so much talent and to me he wasted it on here.
"The Money Pit" and "Slash" was alot better then this one.It is sad that this one was not as good as it should been.JM Happy Dance smokin' mad

Jedi Priestess
are you kidding??? The Money Pit AND Slash were both stink bombs. "Big" is an excellent movie.
