HATHAWAY & CRUISE MOVIE QUIZ

 800

PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS, ANY MOVIE OR ACTOR NAMES, IMAGES, MOVIE QUOTES OR EVEN A HINT IN A COMMENT, OR YOU WILL RUIN THE QUIZ FOR EVERYONE ELSE.   POST THEM IN A PRIVATE NOTE TO ME, BUZZ OF THE ORIENT, AND I WILL REPLY WITH YOUR SCORE AND THE CORRECT ANSWERS.

Don't forget that I am on the other side of the world (of most of you) and I could be asleep when you send your answers, so be patient - I will get to your PN as soon as I can.  

PLEASE, PLEASE, READ WHAT IS BELOW FIRST AND FOLLOW THE RULES IN ORDER TO GET FULL MARKS FOR YOUR ANSWERS.  THIS QUIZ IS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THE PREVIOUS QUIZ.  

This quiz will be the first one about two different actors with separate lists and still have only one visual clue per question.  The second clue per question is, and for the answer to be correct, it is REQUIRED  that it MUST  be a movie on the linked  IMDb lists Anne Hathaway Filmography  of 49 movies or All Tom Cruise Movies of 41 movies, located just below this paragraph.   There may be similar lists with the same name so please use ONLY  the ones that are linked.  The visual clues represent words, scenarios or images that may be relevant to the movie title or can be found in the mini-synopsis of the movie on the linked IMDb list.  That means you will not have had to see the movie to identify the movie from the clue because you may not have seen the movies I've chosen.   I have seen about half of the movies on this quiz - a few may have already been used in previous quizzes, and I may have used the same or a similar clue for one or two of them as I had before.  I don't think any of the clues are actual screen shots from the movies.  I try to use clues that do not make it easy to do a web search, and since this is a test of your knowledge of movies, web searching using google or web programs that identify movies from the clues is cheating.  The real fun of the quiz is the research required to identify the movies, so cheating just means you're a dishonest person, if that's what you want to think of yourself for the rest of your life.

Anne Hathaway Filmography (IMDb) LINK ->   https://www.imdb.com/list/ls066369102/

All Tom Cruise Movies (IMDb) LINK ->   https://www.imdb.com/list/ls505735345/

Be careful to use ONLY these particular linked lists because there are similar lists that do not have the same movies listed.

Note that I never use the same movie more than once in the same quiz.

THE RULES  

I am being fairly lenient in my scoring, and not overly concerned about spelling mistakes, obvious typos, punctuation, capitalizing or leaving out or adding an extraneous "A" or "The", but especially if you guess the answer you should check the movie name on the linked lists or web to make sure it is the full and correct name .  For example, and this will be important for all my quizzes, you will lose a half mark if you make the title one word if it is two, or two words when it is only one because that means to me that you are not sure of the title and you never checked your answer with the list to make sure it is correct.  Just identifying the image does not necessarily mean that you know the name of the movie.    That is only one of the reasons why it is important for you to check your answers with the lists to make sure they are correct.     As well, if you can convince me that my clues are equally as relevant for or better indicative of a movie other than the one I've chosen, provided it is one of the movies on the IMDb list linked above,  I will accept that alternative as a good answer.  In previous quizzes I did accept alternatives for the questions.   Please also send only one answer for each question - I cannot score it if you provide more than one movie name per question.  

A few times now a situation came up on previous quizzes where the movie list link I used came up with a different name than the one the participant got although it was the same link, so if that happens, and usually it is a foreign movie, please tell me when I score your answers.

Do not forget that BOTH  the visual clue and the information from the linked list must be taken into consideration.  Not doing so is the greatest reason for loss of score.

Please number your answers the same as the questions.

Going to try my one visual clue concept with two contemporary fairly well known actors - Anne Hathaway and Tom Cruise.  I'm trying to be careful about not using clues that could provide alternate answers, but I'm not perfect, and I have been accepting alternative answers.  The fact that a perfect score is more of a challenge to achieve should be considered a good thing, because if the quiz is nothing but a walk in the park I'm concerned it could become boring and a waste of time.  So let's see how you do on this one, but remember as always.....

 PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS, ANY MOVIE OR ACTOR NAMES, IMAGES, MOVIE QUOTES OR EVEN A HINT IN A COMMENT HERE, OR YOU WILL RUIN THE QUIZ FOR EVERYONE ELSE.   POST THEM IN A PRIVATE NOTE TO ME, BUZZ OF THE ORIENT, AND I WILL REPLY WITH YOUR SCORE AND THE CORRECT ANSWERS.

This quiz will be open for a week and will be closed on Friday, March 1st at about 10 p.m. New York City time.

It appears that we're going to need a lot more than that.  Maybe we have to ask the R.A. to expand the numbers of articles on the Front (Home) Page.  We seem to be abandoned by our regular bumpers.

Have been really busy, but as I have pointed out before, if I can find the time then anyone can do it.  Even if you make a few mistakes (taking the last quiz into account) I don't believe it goes on your permanent record. 

The sun is going down and having  an orange sunset with a lake spike off of Lake Michigan.  The coloring could be because of the fires in Texas.

Oooops!  I got busy editing Hal's photo and wasn't thinking about the quiz.  Anyway, now it is closed.  Only five participants, the least it's ever been.  Because I've already prepared it I will be posting the next quiz, and because I created it during the week I used the same method - two actors and one visual clue.  Only 4 members voted on the poll, and the result was 3 wanted two image clues, and one wanted one visual clue.  Because there were so few I am going to assume that the rest are happy with either way, so IF I CONTINUE THE QUIZ (Is it worth my time for such meagre participation?) I will consider making every fourth quiz one visual clue only, and the rest two visual clues - should satisfy everyone. 

Now to the results of this quiz.  Dig and Veronica turned in perfect 20 scores for first place, Snuffy and Perrie share second place with 19 each, and charger 383 takes third place with a score of 17.  My congratulations and thanks to all who participated. 

Here are the answers:

  1.  The Color of Money - coloured money
  2.  Passengers - a crashed passenger airplane
  3.  Vanilla Sky - vanilla ice cream
  4.  Valentine's Day - calendar marking February 14
  5.  The Other Side of Heaven - Tongan Islands
  6.  Rain Man - man standing in rain
  7.  Eileen - a prison
  8.  The Last Samurai - Japanese Emperor
  9.  Solos - the number 7
  10. Cocktail - a bartender
  11. Valkyrie - the mythical Valkyrie, God of War
  12. Interstellar - a space ship among the stars
  13. Magnolia - a mosaic
  14. Dark Waters - pollution of the waters
  15. Rock of Ages - a rock
  16. Get Smart - Spy vs Spy
  17. All the Right Moves - a football star
  18. Serenity - a fishing boat captain
  19. Armageddon Time - an American dream
  20. Get Real - six green people
