Agreed! I thought some of the early Seinfeld questions were more trivia, but I also figured a moderate knowledge of pop-culture might make up for a lack of specific knowledge. I sat out Friends and watched -- I recognized answers, but never would have been able to come up with names and episodes (same thing plagued me in Seinfeld).

See ... that "decent memory" thing is tripping me up. It's just been so long. Thinking about it overnight, I have come up with a few answers ... Going to think another day or so and then submit. Yes, I actually mean think, not Google.

Answers sent. I have listened to the audiobooks more times than I can remember, so hopefully I didn't confuse things from the books that aren't in the movies. The famous actor who only appeared in one movie was freaking hard to think of. It would have been easier if it had been 2 or fewer movies.

I expect some seriously Sheepy answers in this one. Eight movies can build a much stronger consensus than 180 episodes of a TV series.

Well that makes me concerned because I think I slammed my answer.

.
Just curious what Seinfeld questions did you think were too trivia based, except for the Reverses which are supposed to be trivia. If you answer, you should probably do it in the Seinfeld thread.

I think it is a really limited pool of "correct" answers, so it's probably a good one to slam (assuming people gave "correct" answers).

Spoiler:
Pretty obvious answer: Alan Rickman. Since Bruce Willis threw him off the building at the end of the first movie.

Just started looking at these threads last month, and I have now submitted answers for the first time. Hopefully, I finish either first or last.

Harry Potter and the Lost Cause answers submitted!

May I also add ... somewhere along the way I purged my collection of these movies. I didn't realize I no longer have a single one of them.

Last-place answers submitted.

The slams will be interesting, and a bad slam or two may decide the game.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

Time to begin!

1. Name a Hogwarts student other than Harry, Ron and Hermione.

As large as Hogwarts is, according to these answers, only three other students attend.

First, a sad face for this redheaded stepchild.
Spoiler:


Well, redheaded child, anyway.

2. Several directors had a turn at the Harry Potter franchise. Which one had the biggest impact on the series overall?

Apparently, the dude who directed the most installments had the least impact.

Maybe the man who started it all had the biggest impact on the series?
Spoiler:


Tommyp007 Chris Columbus {sd} -14
Shannon Nutt Chris Columbus -7
cnicholls44 Chris Columbus -7
Cellar Door Chris Columbus -7
Super X Chris Columbus -7
TheAllPurposeNothing Chris Columbus -7

Nah. Just direct one killer movie and then drop the mic:
