Couldn't think of Topher Grace's name, but yeah, David Mazouz is a banging answer

You better not have said Jerome was the Joker now :P

I really wanted to, but couldn't remember Cameron Monaghan's name at the time.

Plus he wasn't the REAL Joker so would have been wrong regardless :pac:

Well if we're going by that logic, nor was Joaquin Phoenix...

Yo Niska, take away Necro's Ace!

No can do. He was A joker so that's good enough for me.

13. Any actor to play Superman.
No wrong answers, and only a handful of answers, so we have a large SHEEP of 5 for Christopher Reeve.
Just the one ace - well done Baggly for Nic Cage from Teen Titans Go to the Movies!!

And with Dean Cain scoring 3, maybe Teri Hatcher was not the only reason people wtched the NEw Adventures of Superman.

Christopher Reeve - 5

This is a PEEHS where the more obscure an answer you have, the better chance you have of actually winning.


Looking at the rest of my answers, I'm absolutely ****ed. Wouldn't rule out the spoon yet.

An ace versus 3 points, the gap at the top is now 6. With four rounds left, is it too much to make up?

God dammit, I should've gone Brandon Routh or Tyler Hoechlin for that one. Thought others would've gone for them as they're so current with the Arrowverse.

Yep, I even said Superman Returns for the DC movie, but was banking on others sticking to movies for the actor questions so switched to Welling

conor222

I think at least one of my answers yet to come is a guess so I'm likely not able to catch up with Bagley

14. Any main villain from a MCU or DC-Extended movie (character name).
A lot of good nswers. However, The Penguin, Riddler and Mr Freeze have not appeared in the DCEU yet. Almost disallowed Joker, as I have forgotten about Suicide Squad!

Three questions to go. Also Starring LeVar Burton drops a pace, and the gap between first and second is now 7 points.
Surely too much to close in three questions?

Actually thought it was a safe enough bet purely because I didn't think anyone else would remember how to spell it... :rolleyes:

Technically I did get one letter wrong, but it was allowed. That probably makes it worse

So what you're saying is, we didn't actually give the same answer?

Ref?

15. Any character that appeared in the Arrrowverse Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event.
Almost there.
Only one correct answer not an ace - with Flash on 2.
I was expecting some people to fgo with specific universe versions - i.e. Smallville Superman or Superman Returns Superman, but noone did.

Starnge that an incorrect answer Green Lantern had an equal number as the Sheep!

16. Any character 'dusted' in Avengers:Infinity War

Penultimate question. It was a toss up between this and naming a character in the final Endgame fight.

It was the question which I had to rules lawyer the most. Loki was killed by a broken neck, not dusted. And Hank Pm and the Wasp were dusted in the Antman and the Wasp post credits scene.

not spotting the restriction on no live action tv shows is killing me

Not spotting the 1978 is doing me!

The genre Superhero can be a bit nebulous. For this quiz, I have final say on this (Maniacal laugh) but will be fairly generous with the genre boundaries. In general, we're looking at someone (powered or unpowered, hero or antihero) fighting the badguys.
Finally, only titles from 1978 onward are eligible.

Well, for first go, apart from dome teething problems, that went well!

Thanks for playing, and 'grats again to Baggly.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Congrats Baggly that was a phenomenal game you played, didn't even break double digits! Kudos to you!

I'll very happily accept the silver medal for this one! Big shout out to Jake Johnson, Topher Grace, and David Mazouz, couldn't have done it without you guys... Respect!

Niska, great competition, great reveal, take a bow!

Well done. Baggs, a fine performance.

Unlucky, Burton and Jennings, the two of ye certainly seemed clued in on this particular topic. The benefits of sitting at the front of class.

Congrats on the spoon, Rebzzz, a good, solid, sh*t show.


Great fun, Niska, really enjoyed it even though not a subject I'm particularly well versed in haha

Sawduck

Congrats baggly, great score
My score was dreadful
