Another guess, but "Star Wars" is the only thing I can think of.

Try again. "Star Wars" was not the first movie to gross $200 million.

200 million pounds? Sounds heavy. [Wink]

For the U.S. (and Canada), the first movie to top $200 million was "Jaws." Next question: What was the first to top $300 mil?

James Remar (he's even in one shot).

Q: What Oscar nominated editor was brought in to "fix" MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE II and LARA CROFT: TOMB RAIDER, and what movie was he given to direct as a reward?

Stuart Baird. The reward was whichever "Star Trek" he directed. (I lost track of 'em once they ditched the numerals in their titles!)

Correct! For the record, the movie was STAR TREK: NEMESIS.

Q: In SYDNEY (aka HARD EIGHT), there is a reference made to two characters named Floyd Gondoli and Jimmy Gator. What do these two characters have in common with the character of Sydney?

They all are played by Phillip Baker Hall.

He plays Sydney in "Hard Eight."

He plays Floyd Gondolli in "Boogey Nights."

He plays Jimmy Gator in "Magnolia."
