Author Topic: Looking for some good movie trivia questions. Scott McGuire Film Handler Posts: 94 From: Elmira, NY/United States Registered: Oct 2007 posted 02-03-2008 11:41 PM                     Thanks everyone i used a few of the questions for our trivia night and they seemed to work out well. keep em coming, looks like people are having alot of fun with this.  |  IP: Logged John Walsh Film God Posts: 2490 From: Connecticut, USA, Earth, Milky Way Registered: Oct 1999 posted 02-04-2008 08:00 AM                     How about films that have *never* been released like, "The Day the Clown Cried" (1972) or that movie with Johnny Carson?  |  IP: Logged Hillary Charles Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 748 From: York, PA, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 02-04-2008 04:49 PM                     On April 21, 1973, an innovative adventurer/filmmaker passed away, within 16 hours of the passing of the actor who portrayed a fictionalized version of that filmmaker in the most famous movie either ever made (together or separately). Name the filmmaker, the actor, and the movie. [ 02-07-2008, 04:47 PM: Message edited by: Hillary Charles ]  |  IP: Logged Robert W. Jones Film Handler Posts: 74 From: San Antonio, TX Registered: Mar 2007 posted 02-07-2008 05:46 PM                     Hillary, I'm dying here. I was thinking Robert Armstrong (King Kong/Mighty Joe Young), but don't think that's the answer and I don't get free movie passes. Help, I'm intellectually impaired!  |  IP: Logged Hillary Charles Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 748 From: York, PA, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 02-07-2008 05:59 PM                     WE HAVE A WINNER! If only my undying respect. Yes, the filmmaker was Merian C. Cooper. Robert Armstrong's character in the Cooper/Shoedsack film "King Kong," Carl Denham, is based upon Cooper himself, and both men died within a day of each other. Cooper's own life before movies should become a film in itself. Good job, Robert!  |  IP: Logged Robert W.

Bonus round: Alternate answer could be Jack Black? Q: What was Harrison Ford's first uncredited motion picture appearance? A: ? HINT: Jerry Lewis LOL Rob  |  IP: Logged Michael Coate Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1904 From: Los Angeles, California Registered: Feb 2001 posted 02-07-2008 10:20 PM                     "Dead Heat On A Merry-Go-Round" (1966) is frequently recognized as Ford's first film, but I don't know if that's the answer you're looking for. What was Harrison Ford's first above-the-title credit?  |  IP: Logged Robert W. Jones Film Handler Posts: 74 From: San Antonio, TX Registered: Mar 2007 posted 02-08-2008 06:42 PM                     Michael Coate WINS! He played a "Bellboy", thus the Jerry Lewis Hint. Congrats, Rob  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 02-08-2008 08:31 PM                     quote: Michael Coate What film has the record for having its trailer issued the furthest in advance of the film's release? quote: Brian Michael Weidemann It was Cars, wasn't it? What about THE SANTA CLAUSE 2, which had its trailer with 102 DALMATIANS, approximately 101 weeks before it was released? Here's an easy one: Who was Quentin Tarantino's first choice to play Bill in KILL BILL?  |  IP: Logged Robert W.

I need to step up my game. In BATMAN RETURNS, Batman's boot is a modified version of what shoe?  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 02-13-2008 03:01 PM                     So what's the protocol here? How long should I wait before posting the answer to my question?  |  IP: Logged Michael Coate Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1904 From: Los Angeles, California Registered: Feb 2001 posted 02-18-2008 10:47 PM                     Q#1: Who directed the most "scope" movies?
