Here's a fun movie game...

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

Here's how it works. I list three mvies as is if there was some topic like "Greatest Movie Ever" and you guys guess what the topic is. Here's a sample question:

 

 

1. Army of Darkness

 

2. Casablanca

 

3. Pulp Fiction

 

 

 

Answer: Most Quoteable Movie.

 

 

It makes you think about the relationships between movies to discover what the topic is. Anyone want to start?

[Guest areacode212]

1. Dirty Dancing

2. Private Benjamin

3. Fast Times at Ridgemont High

 

I probably won't be back on until after the Royal Rumble, but I'm sure you'll have fun guessing in the meantime.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

I see this game turning into an opinion based thing that doesn't make a bit of sense, without some sort of concrete connection.

 

My guess would be that all three were turned into very short failed television shows, which is true even if that wasn't what you were thinking.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

1) Wait Until Dark

2) Jennifer Eight

3) Ice Castles

[Guest areacode212]

My guess would be that all three were turned into very short failed television shows, which is true even if that wasn't what you were thinking.

Yeah, that was it. I wasn't expecting anyone to remember any of those shows.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

My mom was a big Dirty Dancing fan, so she watched the show. And a local CBS affiliate reran the Private Benjamin show when I was a kid around the same time period as the Dirty Dancing show, so those were kind of linked for me. I vaguely remembered hearing about a Fast Times show, but I looked it up to make sure. When it comes to pop culture, I have a good memory.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

Deacon, I don't think anyone's gonna get that one, so I'll go:

 

1. The Road Warrior

 

2. The Matrix

 

3. Escape From New York

 

Answer (Written backwards): Eivomcitpylacopatsoptseb

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

actually mine was pretty easy. All of the lead female characters are blind. I'll try to go a little easier.

 

The Lion King

Star Wars

Pinnochio and the Emperor of the Night

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

The Lion King

Star Wars

Pinnochio and the Emperor of the Night

The voice of James Earl Jones.

 

I couldn't stop myself from reading the answer to Zsasz's, so I can't guess. I'm bad at thinking of these, so mine will be quite easy.

 

Ben Hur (1959)

Gladiator

The Crow

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

Somebody died during the filming of the movies? That's just a late night guess off the top of my head.

 

And yes, the voice of James Earl Jones is correct.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

Kingpin

Private Parts

Blues Brothers 2000

[Guest CoreyLazarus416]

Ben Hur (1959)

Gladiator

The Crow

The heroes are out to avenge a grave injustice, and die in the end, their mission successful...?

 

I've never actually seen Ben Hur FULLY, but I know that happens in both The Crow and Gladiator.

 

Kingpin

Private Parts

Blues Brothers 2000

 

Hmmmm...WELLLLLL...I'd try to make a Ghostbusters/SNL connection, as Bill Murray was in Kingpin, and Dan Aykroyd was in Blues Brothers 2000...but...hmm...

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

Somebody died during filming was what I was thinking of. I guess your answer could be right, Laz, but I honestly don't remember Ben Hur all that well either.

 

Kingpin

Private Parts

Blues Brothers 2000

 

I want to say Blues Traveler, but I don't remember if the whole band was in Private Parts. But I know John Popper was at least, so my answer is John Popper.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

The John Popper connection is correct as he appears in all.

 

1) Smokey and the Bandit II

2) There's Something About Mary

3) Ace Ventura Pet Detective

[Guest Mole]

Here's kind of a tricky one, I think

 

1) The Haunting

2) Casper

3) Shrek

 

This game is fun, even though I won't be able to guess half of them.

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

Extensive (in some cases excessive) CGI could link yours, Mole, but I don't think that's the right answer.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

No one died during the filming of Ben Hur, that's an urban myth.

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

A stunt man died in the 1959 version, which is why I specified. It's usually attributed to the Charleton Heston version, which is not true.

Ok, sorry about the mix-up.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

No one got mine from so long ago.

 

Smokey and the Bandit II

Something About Mary

Ace Ventura Pet Detective

 

All feature NFL quarterbacks playing themselves. Terry Bradshaw in Smokey, Brett Favre in Mary and Dan Marino in Ace Ventura.

 

Let me try another one:

Shaft (2000)

Ransom (1996)

Color of Money

[Guest Kingpk]

Ok, here's a good one. The link may be a little odd, though.

 

1) Drive Me Crazy

2) Cruel Intentions

3) Heartbreakers

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

All star women best known for their lead t.v. work.

[Guest Kingpk]

Good guess, but not what I'm looking for.

[Guest Lethargic]

Ok, here's a good one. The link may be a little odd, though.

 

1) Drive Me Crazy

2) Cruel Intentions

3) Heartbreakers

They're all gay.

[Guest Mole]

Extensive (in some cases excessive) CGI could link yours, Mole, but I don't think that's the right answer.

Nope, but good guess. I am sure no one will get this, so I am going to give the answer.

 

All of the movies were executive produced by Steven Speilberg, but he was uncredited for it.
