    Thanks this week go to Spike440 for the questions.




    The point of the game is pretty simple. In a PM to me, answer each of the 10 questions below.



    Try to think of the most popular answer.





    If you need to comment or clarify a question then do it in thread please. And if you could reply once you've sent a PM it'd keep the thread alive Thanks!



    Write your answers like this...

    Do not repeat the questions, no full-stops at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. Thanks.



    JUST LIKE THIS:

    1. Dr Maria O' Brien
    2. Kathy Wells
    3. XXXX

    Those who don't reply like this will be ignored.


    The game will end when we have 40 entrants or after 5 days, whichever comes first.


    Please, no full-stops after the answers and put a space in between the 1. and the answer ok?



    1. Name a film that is set in Ireland
    2. Name a film that is an adaptation of a book
    3. Name a winner of the Academy Award for Best Film

    In the interest of fairness, we should probably split "the lord of the rings" into three parts and bump me up to first:D
