I just finished watching all of the DVD extras from season one of 'LOST', and was quite impressed with how much behind-the-scenes info was included. Warning: people who have only seen the actual episodes might be a little...well, lost. =)
Here are some more lyrics containing questions. You tell me which musician or band performed the song. All songs referenced were major hits that received significant radio play, and none of them were released after 1989. (Yes, music existed back then!)
I wasn't especially fond of this film, but tradition is tradition. So, here I am making a quiz about yet another movie based on a comic book character. Go figure.
One of my favorite novels, John Irving's 'The World According To Garp' was made into an excellent movie in 1982. Here are some questions about that movie, which starred Robin Williams, Glenn Close, Mary Beth Hurt, and John Lithgow.
I was pleasantly surprised at how good this 2004 sequel was, so here's a quiz about the thieving, charming, hilarious gang brought together by a guy named Danny Ocean.
One of Marvel's most notable (and loathed, in some circles) mini-series, "Secret Wars" arguably started the trend of massive crossover events. How well do you remember it?
I finally got my hands on the second season of one of my favorite TV shows of all time on DVD, so I thought I'd throw together a quiz on those 26 episodes (more or less). Some of the questions require knowledge of certain actors' non-"DS9" roles.
Batman has been featured in many movies, but I honestly feel that this animated 1993 theatrical release (made by the creators of the animated 'Batman' TV series) captured the character better than anything Tim Burton or Joel Schumacher ever made.
A quiz all about my favorite comic book character, Nightwing (formerly known as the first Robin, junior partner to Batman), and the people he knows, loves, and hates. WingNuts unite!
Some questions about the off-duty interests of characters on all five of the "Star Trek" series. The series in question are discussed in reverse chronological order, from "Enterprise" all the way back to the original "Star Trek."
My favorite band! In some cases, I just give you a lyric, and you tell me which song it's from. There are some other general questions near the end. Enjoy!
All of the following songs were written by a famous musician, but performed by someone else. I'll give the title of the song and the performer. You tell me who wrote the song!
I was stunned to discover that there wasn't a single quiz about this landmark 80's film, so here I am with the first of two about the 1983 classic starring Matthew Broderick. Enjoy!
Marvel Comics and DC Comics are the two largest, most successful companies in comic book publishing. Once in a while, they actually acknowledge each others' existence. Here are some examples.
Sometimes a question is asked in the lyrics of a song. I'll give you the question, and you tell me which musician or group "asked" that question in a song. All songs here received radio play in the 60's, 70's, and 80's.
In the vein of my 'Middle Names Of Movie Characters' quiz, here's one devoted to your knowledge of the middle names and initials of famous TV show characters. Have at it!
I loved "Weird Al" Yankovic while growing up, and listening to his older music still makes me smile. This quiz covers his first seven albums -- "Weird Al Yankovic" (1983) through "Off the Deep End" (1992).
This groundbreaking animated series from the 1978-79 season is finally available on DVD, so here are some questions about the enjoyable (if cheesy) adventures of the Justice League of America.
Yes, now that I own the Criterion DVD of "Chasing Amy," I've come up with even *more* questions about the only Kevin Smith movie I admit to liking unapologetically. Knowledge about DVD commentary and cut scenes required, so this is for experts.
A quiz about the Bravo interview series hosted by the cloying, obsequious, failed actor I love to hate, James Lipton. If you can stomach Lipton, the show is often quite fascinating. This quiz covers ONLY episodes that have aired as of October 2001.
Yet another quiz asking you to identify pre-1990 songs -- all of which received decent radio play -- by the questions posed in their lyrics. Old school fans, have at it! (50 Cent fans, go away.)
Surpisingly, this is my first movie quote quiz for this site. This one covers movies released between 1980 and 1989, inclusive. More to follow, if response is favorable. Good luck!
One of the most honored motion pictures in the history of the medium, "Citizen Kane" is certainly on my list of the greatest films ever made. How much do you know about its production?
I've been on an 80s movie kick with my quizzes lately, so here's one on a "guilty pleasure" flick that's always fun to watch (and ridicule): 1985's "Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins" (and, thankfully, ends).
Once upon a time, Steve Martin wrote a short story called "Shopgirl." Years later, he was able to adapt that story into a 2005 movie starring Claire Danes, Jason Schwartzman, and Steve himself.
From the makers of "Airplane!" and the "Naked Gun" films comes this overlooked gem from 1984, a spoof of spy films and Elvis movies that also happens to be Val Kilmer's first starring role. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen!
