Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who played the caretaker Jack Torrance at the Overlook Hotel in the film "The Shining"?

Answer: Jack Nicholson

Although it wasn't the first movie to use steadicam, it was the first one to use it so effectively, and extensively. Memorable scenes in the movie, such as the chase through the maze, and Danny's tricycle ride around the hotel lobby could not have been shot so effectively without it.
2. In the movie "Full Metal Jacket", Private Leonard "Gomer Pyle" Laurance was played by which of these actors?

Answer: Vincent D'Onofrio

Vincent D'Onofrio gained 70 pounds for his role, breaking Robert De Niro's movie weight-gain record, which was 60 pounds, for "Raging Bull".

The common link is that Stanley Kubrick directed the film "Full Metal Jacket" and "The Shining".
3. Which of these actors did not do a voice-over for the animated movie "Toy Story 2"?

Answer: Woody Harrelson

This was the first sequel for Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, neither of whom had ever been in one before.

The link was Lee Emory who did the voice of the Army Sarge and played Gunnery Hartman in "Full Metal Jacket".
4. What was the name of the character that played Ginger's pimp in "Casino"?

Answer: Lester Diamond

James Woods called Scorsese's office when he heard he was interested in working with him, and left the message: "Any time, any place, any part, any fee". He did and played the part of Lester Diamond.

Don Rickles did the voice for Mr. Potato Head in "Toy Story" and played Billy Sherbert in "Casino" and has become a link in Cinema Links.
5. Who was the director of the film "Gangs of New York" released in 2002?

Answer: Martin Scorsese

Robert De Niro would've been cast to play "Amsterdam" if the movie could've been shot in 1978, like Scorcese had originally planned.

Martin also directed the movie "Casino".
6. Which movie is about a prostitute that is killed during a bachelor party and the attendees turn on each other as the wedding approaches?

Answer: Very Bad Things

Slater's character is asked "Have you done this before?" when trying to get rid of a dead body, he was asked the same thing in the movie "Heathers".

Cameron Diaz played Jenny Everdeane in "Gangs of New York" and the lovely bride in "Very Bad Things".
7. In the movie "The Great White Hype", Samuel L. Jackson played a Don King type character. What was the name of this character?

Answer: Rev. Fred Sultan

Samuel L. Jackson's character, "The Sultan" greets a man with shoulder length hair and black suit saying "Hey Vincent, where's Jules man". This is a reference to his character in the movie "Pulp Fiction".

Peter Berg directed "Very Bad Things" and played Terry Conklin, also known as "The Great White Hype".
8. In the movie "A League of Their Own", who said, "This would be more then wouldn't it?"

Answer: Ernie Capadino

Tom Hanks gained 30 pounds for the film, he attributed it to a nearby Dairy Queen.

John Lovitz played Ernie and he also played the character Sol in "The Great White Hype".
9. What was the name of the movie that had a huge man-eating crocodile?

Answer: Lake Placid

During the movie, in the hospital, you can hear someone paging "Mr. Miner" in the background. The movie was directed by Steve Miner.

Bill Pullman played the game warden in "Lake Placid" and was Geena Davis' husband in "A League of Their Own".
10. Who played Vincent Mancini-Corleone in the final installment of "The Godfather, Part III" trilogy?

Answer: Andy Garcia

In all three "Godfather" movies, the presence of oranges indicate that a death or close call is going to happen soon. Michael Corleone dies with oranges nearby.

Bridget Fonda played Grace Hamilton in "The Godfather, Part III", and was the paleontologist Kelly Scott in "Lake Placid". She is also the final link until I make another quiz. Hope you enjoyed playing!
