You're good pnkl8y! Those are correct. (All though Ogre was the answer to question 13, not 12)

Only these ones left to solve:

1. In what movie did a train go plummeting over Eastwood Ravine?
2. Kyle Reese was a hero in which movie?
8. What was the name of the magazine Strickland confiscated off Biff Tannen in Back to the Future II
12. Which comedy had the two main characters publishing a book of the same name?
20. Which of the Halloween movies did not star Michael Myers?
25. Who did Arnold Swarzenegger kill first in “Commando”?

2. That would be Sgt. Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) of The Terminator (1984)

20. Halloween III: Season Of The Witch (1983)

25. This is a wild guess but I think it's either the character named Sully (David Patrick Kelly) or Cooke (Bill Duke)

Way to go K-Bee. By the way Matrix killed Sully before he killed Cooke! ;)

1. In what movie did a train go plummeting over Eastwood Ravine?
8. What was the name of the magazine Strickland confiscated off Biff Tannen in Back to the Future II
12. Which comedy had the two main characters publishing a book of the same name?

1. This is a wild guess, but was it Back to the Future III?
25. The first one he killed was the guy sitting next to him on the airplane.

Recker

Yes Voodoo, you are correct! And you are right about who Arnie killed first in Commando. We never learnt his name. I tend to think of the first one he killed as being Sully, because he had to go to a lot of trouble to kill that guy. But indeed, it was the guy on the plane.

1. - Hmm, Back to the Future Part III?

Recker
04-20-2006, 11:35 PM
Yes Frustrator, it was BTTF III.

Only two questions left now to be answered in this one (Did this movie Trivia a long time ago and can't edit the original post anymore).

8. What was the name of the magazine Strickland confiscated off Biff Tannen in Back to the Future II
12. Which comedy had the two main characters publishing a book of the same name?

Clue for number 12 - Two well established comedy stars play the lead roles. One published a Thriller, while the other published a kid's book.

12. DOH! Can't believe I didn't get this one sooner. It has to be Billy Crystal and Danny DeVito in "Throw Momma From the Train"... one of my favorite 80's comedies (still makes me laugh and laugh) :laughin:

Momma: Who the hell is this?
Owen: Oh, this is Cousin Paddy. He's coming to stay with us a while. Isn't that nice?
Momma: [suspiciously] We don't have a "Cousin Paddy".
Owen: [to Larry] You lied to me!
[Owen knocks Larry out with a frying pan to the head]

It simply doesn't get any better than this :clappin2:

Recker >> I know there's still one unanswered question left, but still... when can we except a new Movie Trivia Game from you? ;)

Mike Myers was not in Halloween 3. In fact, Halloween 3 made no sense at all.

Recker

Frustrator you are correct! It was "Throw Momma from the train." (I guess I should come up with a new lot of questions.)

Mr Howdy - that one was actually my favourite of the entire series. lol.

I'll answer number 8. The magazine was "Ooh La La".

That's all of them!
