No wonder I didn’t get any of them, never saw any of them.
Gimme ones I know, I might solve them. 😉
No excuses, Daven. These are all great movies, classics in various senses. #1 is an Oscar-winning musical, #2 is widely considered the best Bond film (not my favorite, but most people’s), a true classic, and one of only 2 Bond films to win an Oscar (for Sound). #3 is a Scorcese film, #4 is a classic Warren Beatty-Natalie Wood film, #5 is an acclaimed comedy with a breathtakingly funny performance by Kevin Kline (among others), #6 is one of the smartest political dramaas ever, and #7 is another great comedy.
If you ever run an occult-themed, b-rated horror movie edition of Tuesday Trivia, I will totally clean up.
Evn, I don’t know enough of that kind of movie to create a good quiz!
Yeah, I kind of chose the wrong genre to specialize in. But if you ever want a guest trivia-giver, just let me know.
