While I was at work the other day we were playing one of those 7 degrees game and seeing how many actors we could link together. I find it to be a great game and a little challenging at times. So as I was laying in bed this morning unable to breathe because of a stuffed up nose I thought maybe the fanforce wouldn't mind playing the game as well.

I'm sure you all know the rules, you take one actor and try and link them to another in so many steps. Let's try and keep it as few as possible.

So here goes the first one:
Hillary Duff and Harrison Ford

There might be a shorter way but...

Hilary Duff was in Cheaper by the Dozen with Steve Martin
who was in Bowfinger with Robert Downey Jr
who was in US Marshals with Tommy Lee Jones
who was in Fugitive with Harrison Ford

Brittany Murphy was in 8 Mile with
Kim Basinger who was in Wayne's World 2 with
Christopher Walken who was in Sleepy Hollow with
Johnny Depp.

Aren't we supposed to be connecting everyone to Kevin Bacon?

Awesome!

I would have gone the James Stewart in "Man Who Shot Liberty Valance"
with John Wayne who was in "True Grit"
with Robert Duval who was in "Secondhand Lions"
with Haley Joel Osment rout, but good job only using movies you've seen!

Thanks, I play this game at home all the time. (Of course, it's them who give me the actors, and me who solves it.) It's rare that I find people able to do this sort of thing.

Here's a twist.

Connect Gabriel Byrne to Keanu Reeves, and include "The Lion King" (voice actors) in the middle somewhere.

Hmmm, interesting twist. . .

Gabriel Byrne in Quest for Camelot
with Gary Oldman who was in The Fifth Element
with Bruce Willis who was in Die Hard with a Vengeance
with Jeremy Irons who was the voice of Scar in The Lion King
with Nathan Lane who was in Titan A.E.
with Drew Barrymore who was in Babes in Toyland
with Keanu Reeves.

I don'n know if Babes in Toyland counts since it was a made for TV movie, but it's the best I can do for now.

Alright, we'll throw some local fun into it.

John Heder to Lawrence Olivier. I won't throw in any stipulations since I haven't worked this one out for myself yet.

I assume you mean Jon Heder from Napoleon Dynamite.

If that's the case then, all except the first one, again using only movies I have seen.

Jon Heder was in Napoleon Dynamite with Jon Gries
who was in The Pretender with Patrick Bauchau
who was in James Bond: A View to a Kill with Christopher Walken
who was in The Stepford Wives with Matthew Broderick
who was in The Lion King with James Earl Jones
who was in Jesus of Nazarith with Laurence Olivier

BTW, I belive both The Lion King and A Few Good Men are major hubs in this game.
