ANOTHER NEW MOVIE QUIZ
ANOTHER NEW MOVIE QUIZ
PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS 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.
The Return of the Movie Quiz actually went quite well so I'm trying another one.
Please remember that I am on the other side of the world (of most of you) so I could be asleep when you send your answers, so be patient - I will get to your PN as soon as I can.
Now that we've made that clear, here are the questions. Either actual names of actors, or their screen names in the movies are acceptable. There are some hard questions and some easy ones, and most of the questions are drawn from movies released during the last 30 years, and as well most are from fairly popular movies. These are supposed to be a test of your memory of the movies, and using an internet site to find your answers is cheating, and no test of your movie knowledge. I've posted questions that are not easily answered by searching the internet anyway. Please number your answers with the same numbers as the questions. Now, give it a try......
1. In the movie The Natural, the bat made by Roy Hobbs (Robert Redford) was called Wonderboy. What was the name of the final bat he used?
2. In what movie was a Sheriff's star dropped into the dusty street.
3. Who was Luke Skywalker's sibling?
4. When Alvin York (Gary Cooper) came to New York City as a war hero in the movie Sgt.York, what subway did he want to ride on?
5. What did the woman at another table tell the waiter when she saw Sally (Meg Ryan) do the fake orgasm in When Harry Met Sally?
6. What was the code word to open the cryptex in the movie The DaVinci Code?
7. When they first met on the Red October, what did Captain Ramius (Sean Connery) say the American Sub Captain (Scott Glen) looked like?
8. It the movie The Shawshank Redemption, for what American town did Red (Morgan Freeman) buy a bus ticket?
9. In the movie Ben Hur, what was the colour of the horse Ben Hur (Charleton Heston) gifted to Tribune Messala (Stephen Boyd)?
10. What was the winning Roulette number in the movie Casablanca?
11. What three words spoken near the end of the movie 'The Martian" made people around the world cheer?

17. What killed Ben (Will Smith) in the movie Seven Pounds?
18. Who owned the house in the movie The Magic of Belle Isle that Monte Wildhorn (Morgan Freeman) rented and then bought?

Please DO NOT put your answers here as a comment, but send me a Private Note and I will reply with your score and the answers. I will only post the top 3 scores, so don't be embarrassed, give it a try.
I have never even heard of some of these movies, let alone seen them.
The previous quiz was doable. I dont know about this one.
Everyone is not as immersed in the details of movies like you are Buzz.
I know some of these answers, I think, but on the whole the quiz is just too difficult to be fun.
Only those who watch a lot of movies can get a good score, but there are members who are good sports and try, even knowing their scores will be low. They still think it's fun. It's not always necessary to win in order to have fun. A while ago I posted a bunch of quizzes I got from an internet site, and everyone got 100% on them - no challenge at all.
Sometimes I just take a guess. It's only when I can't even make a bad guess I just answer ?
So I noticed. LOL
A new EASIER movie quiz is in the making - watch for it.
Isn't anyone watching movies during lockdown? Get your mind off the virus and politics for a few minutes and give this one a try. I've already prepared a new one to post next week, a much easier one, all more recent mostly more popular movies.
