  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton

    High points good.

    I had withnail, Keith. But he didn’t make the cut.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,155 ✭✭✭Irish Aris

    I had the same with the characters, couldn't remember anything for the life of me. . .


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,142 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Question 2: The Movie

    Note: I will post scores after each actor/movie is complete, and maybe more frequently towards the end.

    So with Katniss sheeping, naturally The Hunger Games has to be odds on to sheep here right?

    RIGHT?

    MV5BMjA4NDg3NzYxMF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNTgyNzkyNw@@._V1_.jpg

    OR...

    Perhaps it was...

    How did I not think of MIB? Although I'm glad I didn't go with Aladdin now. The shame would've been too great.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,142 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Well Hunger Games is the sheep but a few shouted ABANDON SHIP so it's not as big.

    Men In Black is not a bad answer to be on tbf, some love for everything Will Smith was in that was ever good mainly ;) (Well ok, Fresh Prince wasn't eligible)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,637 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Oh thank god. I'll take that ace.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,142 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    It's a 6 way tie at the top of the table with tusk among the leaders. Rumours of the game being fixed to help him finally win one are abound already :P

    Not a great start for sKeith, but we have a long way to go yet.

    Okay, one bad answer there but that was one of my few 50/50s - mainly because I couldn't think of alternative answers for later rounds


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    oh good. now to fall. hard.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Oops why didn't I stick with hunger games?

    Tusk,

    The higher they climb the harder they fall.

    Just saying ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton

    oh, I think I approached this the wrong way.
    I can see me in competition for the wooden spoon. . .


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,142 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Ok

    Question 3:

    Back to characters now and you had to pick one from the below:

    Judi Dench | Leonardo DiCaprio | Cameron Diaz | Mark Whalberg

    Loads of choice, tusk was generous here

    220px-M_by_Judi_Dench.jpg

    Dial M for Murder maybe?


    Or perhaps...


    aviator21-main1.jpg

    Howard Hughes from the Aviator tickled your fancy...

    Sticking with Leo though, an all time classic...
