  1. OK, let's try another then. (The answer was Kenneth Branagh, but he lost out because Milos Foreman wanted US actors playing the main roles) Why were there complications in having Tommy Lee Jones play Two Face in Batman Forever?
  2. Who was originally going to play Mozart in 'Amadeus' before Tom Hulce was given the role?
  3. Thank God, a Blues Brothers question! The answer's Spielberg.
  4. Whilst I very well could be substituting the wrong guy : Baskerville and Watson
  5. At a guess, Henry Baskerville and Moriarty
  6. Cowbell. The Rapture. Nuff said
  7. I love Hugh Laurie, but I can't honestly see him playing an American newspaper editor. But then, I can't see Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane either.....
  8. Not to mention X2. One hell of a coincidence....
  9. From the little I've covered on slavery on the American Studies part of my course, I'm well aware that the Civil War was not fought primarily over the "ideal" of slavery and it's abolition. I don't feel qualified to pass judgment on it yet as we've barely touched on that side of the course, but the North/South divide seemed to have a lot more to it than slavery (I mean, Thomas Jefferson spoke against slavery but owned some himself).
  10. Batman Begins. If I knew anything about Sin City, I'd be more excited about it.
  11. As an Englishman, it would be biased of me to say that this is typical eccentricity from those skirt-wearing jocks. Still, you guys should read up about haggis....
  12. In Bond films, the actor who played CIA agent Felix Leiter for the last time in 'License to Kill' had only played him once before. In which film was that?
  13. What's said above - and it would have to end with him being torched. In the sense of "...and that's how it started"
  14. Who wants to see a poster? From Darkhorizons.com
  15. Yeah, it's a comedy as well. Like Ghostbusters is a Fantasy & Sci-fi as well on IMDB. I haven't used it for Yoda's question. Thus I don't know the answer!
  16. Actor and co-writer! Correct
  17. If there was a God, he'd see that Storm strike down that teenage bitch dead with a well-placed thunderbolt. That said, if it's a Halle Berry-played Storm, I couldn't care less who dies.
  18. Before Men In Black, what was the highest grossing Comedy film? Not as hard as it sounds - when someone asked me, I got it in one
  19. Tack on the IMDB to that as well. That's my constant sourse of trivia and I want to test myself on this....
  20. Apart from the final two, all the episodes in Season 5 rank from Good to Classic. I don't know if I'd pick it up though
