All suited and booted for the red carpet here.

The trap will not be Armageddon, despite Kolido and Mam of 4 voting for it.
Fans of Bruce Willis will be relieved...




...or will they?

Thank you !

Next on our list of films that won't be the trap is my prediction, which was a bad prediction!
I thought a big ensemble cast would be good, and I thought of Love Actually, as did Aidan Harney, Homer J. Fong and JohnGreenFan

HeidiHeidi

Are there bonus points if you get the sheep film, or just the thrill of scuppering a few others along the way?

I thought I was very clever choosing the expendables 2 and thought others would pick it. Unless they chose 1 or 3???

Electric Nitwit

The runner up in the race to be a trap was old FG favourite, Die Hard with seven votes:
Also Starring LeVar Burton
davetherave
Edser
HeidiHeidi
Necro
Purgative
Reberetta

That would only have eliminated Alan Rickman and Bruce Willis though. Will our trap catch more...?

No - films don't score, just the thrill of knowing you're ruining other people's game :P

Hillybilly4

beakerjoe

That was a great choice, I'm surprised no one else went for it.
Also surprised by the lack of Harry Potter

Hillybilly4

Wow! I got off lightly!

Hillybilly4

I thought it was gonna be Titanic

beakerjoe

I hipe there are sone Jack Bauer fans for X.

HeidiHeidi

OK, I think I might have put one of that list of actors as an answer..... maybe - but given I had to google most of the questions, who knows?


It'll be an interesting reveal, just finding out how bad my answers were

ari101

I know I submitted the sheep film, and it was only yesterday, but I'm looking at that actor list and starting to worry I might have given myself a few zeros... :pac:

I think I did give myself one or 2... I forgot some people were in it.

the purple tin

Yup yup!

I picked Die Hard first but realised it was no good as apart from Bruce and Alan, no famous actors. So switched to Avengers.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I voted for this, just hope i didn't accidentally include someone from it, that would be embarrassing

I know I picked one person and then realised they had one of those unnamed but credited roles in it and took them back out

Yep, going to hit me in potential high scoring letters like V & Z

I had thought of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Oceans 11, the likes of something with a huge ensemble cast but just went with good old fan favourite Christmas movie Die Hard.

What's the obsession with Die Hard on this forum? Literally two actors in it of any note and seven of you pick it.

Avengers is a good winner. Thought more would choose Grand Budapest Hotel with the amount of big names in it.

Theres gonna be a blip for a few players. A fitting choice.

Think the Die Hard love came from the...is it a Christmas movie.... debate

Think in my rush to get answers in, whenever someone didn't automatically pop into my head for an answer, I just thought of the Marvel movies...

The trap was an afterthought, and I didn't really consider it.

Ah well, wooden spoon here we come.

I have two of them in my list of nominations. Could have been worse, I suppose. I really thought that a film (or films) with Al Pacino and/or Robert de Nero and/or Robin Williams would sheep.

Such a clever bunch !!! :cool:

The reason this was SUCH A GREAT, SMART, WELL THOUGHT OUT movie, was because there are so many modern & known actors in it.

Shame on anyone who didn't think of it

& dbl shame for the fact that even I thought of it

Die Hard was winning for ages and I was really pissed off, would have been such an anticlimax. I'm delighted by the winner

The problem is that I barely knew that film!

The winner has arrived!

Me neither, I was very surprised by a few of the names on the cast list!

I chose Endgame but also avoided Bruce Willis and Alan Rickman for this reason.

It seems that some of the 10 who nominated the sheep film got caught in their own trap! It will be interesting to see how many of the total participants in this game manage not to be caught in the trap.

I thought Vin Diesel would be a good sheep, but changed because I knew he was in my extremely clever sheep movie .

Almost used Michelle Pfeiffer too & changed her. But I didn't actually realise she was even in the movie myself lol. So could have gave myself a zero there

I think that 25 players get caught at some point, including two who nominated Endgame!

Avengers Infinity War would be one of my favourite movies .

End Game, not so much.

I liked Thor Ragnarok best I think, or maybe Gaurdians 1 (The torture of baby Groot in 2 makes me unwilling to consider it the best )

In any case Avengers has a massive cast I would automatically think of for Sheep actors, so I took a leap of faith I wasn't going to be the only person to go for a real trap
