Opening Round, Game 3: EUClone of Emperor Jello and the Knights of the EUC vs. DEAD POSTERS SOCIETY

^that was the first one that I thought of. It's the closest Tom Hanks has come to dying in a movie, as far as I can recall. Or maybe, he did die. I can't remember.

 

Philadelphia was my guess

Joe versus the Volcano

 

Probably Toy Story, then. That, or Cast Away.

I really expected it to be one of the first guesses. Seemed like a pretty obvious one.

 

Or Castaway.

 

That was the other one I had in mind.

 

And the missing answer was ...

1. Forrest Gump_________ 31
2. Saving Private Ryan_ __ 21
3. Big__________________ 14
4. Sleepless in Seattle__ _ 11
5. A League of Their Own_ 08
6. Apollo 13_____________ 05
7. Toy Story_____________ 04


[audience_in_unison]Toy Story![/audience_in_unison]

 

Heh. Only reason I didn't go with Toy Story was because I wasn't sure if enough people would think of it first when he doesn't physically appear in the movie.

 

Point values are now doubled. DEAD POSTERS SOCIETY can win the game on this question. EUClone needs to get it to stay in the game. For this question, we surveyed 100 Americans

The top four answers are on the board

1. __________
2. __________
3. __________
4. __________

And the question has been PMed to JEDI_TEEGIRLOO and Eeth-my-Koth ..



Also, just so we're clear, if EUClone get control of the board, it will go to Jag4Me, Kev-Mas_Colcha, The_Loyal_Imperial, MarasFire, and then back to JEDI_TEEGIRLOO. If Dead Posters get control it will go to RS77, Maddux, Lumpe, KnightWriter, and then back to Eeth. Everyone got that?

 

Only four? I get the feeling this is going to be a hard one...

 

Unless it's "Name a season"

 

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme?

 

Have 5 respect points

 

I'm off to a work retreat, and won't be back until Friday, so I just PMed Adalia-Durron to see if she can take over for me for this round. She's supposed to post in the thread either way, but she's in Australia, so it might be a bit before she logs on.

Granted, now that I've done this we won't win control, but I had to throw it out there anyways, just in case!

 

For this question, we surveyed 100 Americans

The top four answers are on the board

And we had both players submit the same answer, in the same amount of time. The coin flip gives control of the board to ...


EUClone of Emperor Jello and the Knights of the EUC

If their answer is on the board ...

The question is ...

Name something you commonly hear after ?Star?


JEDI_TEEGIRLOO: Star Wars

1. Wars______ 44
2. __________
3. __________
4. __________

Bank Value: 44 x 2 = 88

And so EUClone has a chance to get back in this ...

Jag4Me, Name something you commonly hear after ?Star?

1. Wars______ 44
2. Trek______ 36
