The Movie Game (Guest Host)

Today's movie game is being hosted by Nippy the Penguin. All the questions are from his mind, I had nothing to do with them. Now get crackin'!!

RULES: I present you with two movies, for example: The Matrix and Miss Congeniality. The object of the game is to link them together to another movie by connecting the actors/actresses. The link in this case is Speed using Keanu Reeves from The Matrix and Sandra Bullock from Miss Congeniality. Another example is: Link Top Gun & The Shining. The answer is A Few Good Men, using Tom Cruise from Top Gun and Jack Nicholson from The Shining. Get it?

Now they all aren't this easy and sometimes there are multiple answers. The questions range from easy to hard and sometimes I like to throw in a challenging one to test those true movie buffs. You earn points for correct answers and I keep track of every one's points on the side of my blog. There is going to be a prize awarded to the winner. Try not to use the Internet. This is a game of memory and skill. I ONLY ACCEPT ANSWERS IN THE FORM OF AN EMAIL, DO NOT PUT YOUR ANSWERS IN A COMMENT, LET EVERYONE HAVE A FAIR CHANCE AT PLAYING. EMAIL ANSWERS TO reviewsyoucantuse@gmail.com. GOOD LUCK!!

Easy - Link: Interview with the Vampire & Witness (worth 1 point)

Medium - Link: Eastern Promises & A league of Their Own (worth 2 points)

Hard - Link: Star Wars A New Hope & Hidalgo (worth 3 points)

Challenge - Link: Titanic & Working Girl & The Rock (worth 5 points)

Here is the new addition to the game. It's sort of like the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon but instead of using Mr. Bacon I am going to give you 2 random actors/actresses and you have to find the quickest link using movies. For example: Will Smith to Al Pacino. The answer could be: Will Smith in Men in Black with Tommy Lee Jones who is in Batman Forever with Chris O'Donnell who is in Scent of a Woman with Al Pacino. If you finding a quicker link than good for you. The less movies you use, the more points you get.

Link: Rutger Hauer to Seth Rogen

Link: Liam Neeson to Olympia Dukakis

Points are as follows:
In same movie together: 5 points
Using 2 movies: 4 points
3 movies: 3 points
4 movies: 2 points
5 + movies: 1 point

Hot damn, Nippy...it looks like you were the key to my defeat all along. LOL Kudos for being the first to stump me blind! Your Challenge link was too much for my befuddled mind to endure.

I must say it's nice seeing that there are women out there with as much useless movie trivia knowledge as me and Powdered Toast Man.
