TV & Movies Mixture Trivia Questions
31. In which 1982 movie does failed actor, Michael Dorsey (Dustin Hoffman) learn he is a "better person as a woman than he ever was as a man"?

From Quiz I Want It All

Answer: Tootsie

Michael Dorsey (Hoffman) has a reputation of being difficult to work with, and as such, finds it difficult to get a job. In order to help his friend Sandy (Terri Garr) he dresses as a woman and auditions for a television role. In true movie style though, things go too far, and Dorsey cannot extricate himself from his female alter ego.

32. In what movie did Liz Taylor's character exclaim "How dare you and the rest of your barbarians set fire to my library?"

From Quiz Librarians Gone Mild; TV and Movie Images

Answer: "Cleopatra"

Cleo's ire was directed at Julius Caesar (Rex Harrison) who supposedly torched the Library at Alexandria. This 1963, $44 million dollar dud almost bankrupted 20th Century Fox. Trivia note: Susan Hayward was the studio's first choice to play the Queen of the Nile.

33. One of the cross-over actors plays Mark Greene in "ER" and Goose in "Top Gun". What is Goose's job in "Top Gun"?

From Quiz Top ER

Answer: Radar-Intercept Officer

The actor in question is Anthony Edwards. A Radar-Intercept Officer (RIO) evaluates the data from an F-14's sensory equipment and advises the pilot as to the best course and speed to intercept a target. I referred to the University of Washington's Naval ROTC website for basic information (http://depts.washington.edu/uwnrotc/officer/commun/nfo.html), which also has a general overview of the roles of other Naval Flight Officers in other aircraft.

34. Who played both Vinnie Barbarino and Vincent Vega?

From Quiz Stars in TV and Movie Roles

Answer: John Travolta

John played "sweathog" Vinnie Barbarino on "Welcome Back, Kotter" in 1975. He made a comeback in 1994 in Quentin Tarantino's movie "Pulp Fiction".

35. What movie did Zac's character say "just like kindergarten"?

From Quiz Zac Efron Quotes From TV & The Movies

Answer: High School Musical 1

Troy and Gabriella are standing on the stage ready to do their call back audition and Gabriella says "I can't do it Troy, not with all these people looking at me" Troy looks at Gabriella and says "look at me, right at me, just like kindergarten, remember"?

36. Coming in at No. 94 was "The Fabulous Baker Boys". The boys in question were played by Jeff and Beau Bridges, but who was the actress who lounged across a piano and sang "Makin Whoopee"?

From Quiz Greatest Sexy Moments of Film and TV

Answer: Michelle Pfeiffer

"The Fabulous Baker Boys" was released in 1989. Michelle Pfeiffer played the wonderfully named Susie Diamond, and sang all her own songs in the film. Madonna was originally approached for the role, but turned it down.

37. What well-known comedian and impressionist played Bele, the Cheron police officer in the TOS episode "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield"?

From Quiz Let That Be Your Last Deathstar

Answer: Frank Gorshin

Frank Gorshin, also well known for his portrayal of "The Riddler" on the "Batman" TV show, played the contentious law enforcer in the third year original "Star Trek" episode. This is the storyline where two factions of a world's people are fighting each other because their bi-colored complexions (one side black, the other white) are reversed. Gorshin did a killer impression of Kirk Douglas and an equally impressive Robert Mitchum, and nobody could do furtive creeps like he did when he acted, which is what made his Riddler so good on what was an otherwise idiotic show on "Batman".

38. This stone-aged man was voiced by Alan Reed on TV and played by John Goodman and Mark Addy on the silver screen. Which bowling-loving, family-man was this?

From Quiz Playing the Same Role; TV vs. Movies Part 2

Answer: Fred Flintstone

Portraying the day to day life of the average Stone Age family, "The Flintstones" ran for six seasons, between 1960 and 1966. The creative use of animals to replicate modern day comforts made the series worth watching. John Goodman assumed the role of the less than brilliant Fred in 1994's "The Flintstones", which also featured Halle Berry as a seductive bad girl who sees the error of her ways. None of the stars from the 1994 cast signed on for the 2000 sequel, "The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas".

39. This simple man was able to take his family from rags to riches due to some lucky hunting. He was played in the television series by Buddy Ebsen, and by Jim Varney in the movie. Who was this man who never really left his simple roots behind?

From Quiz Playing the Same Role; Movies vs. Television [1]

Answer: Jed Clampett

The culture shock surrounding the transplanting of a group of rich, but down-to-earth hillbillies to the excesses of Beverly Hills, provided enough fodder for laughs to give "The Beverly Hillbillies" a nine season run, between 1962 and 1971. Based on the series, the same-named movie was released in 1993. Sing with me now, "...And then one day when he was shootin' at some food, up through the ground came a bubblin' crude."

40. This actor was "Strictly Business" when he began his acting career. He didn't find much "Law and Order" in the "Homicide" division, but he was "Out of Sight" in "Hollywood Homicide". Who is this actor?

From Quiz Before They Were Doctors

Answer: Isaiah Washington

Isaiah Washington was in the Air Force before becoming an actor. He acted alongside Josh Hartnett and Harrison Ford in "Hollywood Homicide" and did a two-episode stint on "Ally McBeal".

41. In which film does Goldie Hawn join the Army?

From Quiz TV and Film Comedies II

Answer: Private Benjamin

This film was made in 1980 Goldie Hawn plays Private Judy Benjamin. The plotline is Goldie plays a woman who has just got married and on her wedding night her husband dies. Not knowing what to do she joins the army.

42. Eddie Murphy moves from Africa to which city in the film "Coming To America"?

From Quiz TV & Film Comedies I

Answer: New York City

This film was made in 1988 and was one of the funniest comedies to come out in the eighties. Eddie Murphy plays Prince Akeem, his best friend Semi is played by Arsenio Hall. The film is about the Crown Prince of Zamunda who wants to pick a wife of his own choice and arrives in America with plans to seek his bride in the Queens district of New York City.

43. In what year did J.M. Barrie introduce the world to Peter Pan?

From Quiz Everything "Peter Pan"

Answer: 1902

Peter Pan first appeared in print as a part of Barrie's book "The Little White Bird". This book was written as a reflection on the summer J.M. Barrie spent with the Davies children as we see in the movie "Finding Neverland". It was not until two years later that "Peter Pan" was turned into a successful play.

44. Hugh Laurie was in a film remake that came out in 2004 (the same year "House, M.D." hit the airwaves). In it, he co-starred with Dennis Quaid, among others. Which film was this?

From Quiz Hugh Laurie: Is There A Doctor In The 'House'?

Answer: The Flight Of The Phoenix

"The Flight Of The Phoenix" was originally released in 1965 with a stellar cast led by Jimmy Stewart. While the 'updated' version stuck with the concept of the initial film (plane crashes in the desert, survivors attempt to avoid disaster if not death, etc.) the remake was not quite up to the first one, according to critics and audiences alike. A perfect example of "more" not being the same at all as "better".

45. How did Jack's name change between the movie and the television show?

From Quiz Stargate--Movie and Television Series

Answer: Jonathan O'Neil to Jonathan O'Neill

According to the TV Jack, "There is another Colonel O'Neil with only one 'l'. He has no sense of humor."

46. The S.S. Poseidon is to Captain Harrison as the Pacific Princess is to Captain ______?

From Quiz Television and Movie Analogies

Answer: Stubing

Captain Merrill Stubing was played by Gavin MacLeod on the the romantic comedy television show "The Love Boat" from 1977-1986. Every episode he and his wacky crew became involved with the romantic misadventures of the passengers. Captain Harrison went down with his ship the S.S. Poseidon in the 1972 movie "The Poseidon Adventure".

47. Who was The Saint's literary "father"?

From Quiz The Saint

Answer: Leslie Charteris

48. This famous child star grew up and became hostess of late 1950s-early 1960s children's anthology series. She was in many movies as a little girl, and was also famous for her presence in Washington, D.C.

From Quiz The Ultimate "TV Guide" Challenge

Answer: Shirley Temple

Shirley Temple Black was in many movies as a little girl, including "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" and several others. She was known for her outstanding ability to sing, dance, and memorize many lines as a small child.

49. In the 1961 film "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance", John Wayne shot Lee Marvin, but allowed Jimmy Stewart to take all the credit. In what other film did Wayne's character gun down Marvin's character?

From Quiz Entertainment - For Experts Only! No. 2

Answer: The Comancheros

In "The Comancheros", Wayne played a Texas Ranger working undercover to catch Tully Crow, played by Marvin, who was selling guns to the Indians. The two tough guy actors also co-starred in "Donovan's Reef", but Wayne didn't kill Marvin in that one. Actually, they played best friends.

50. What was the name of the town where Marshall Will Kane fought the bad guys in "High Noon"?

From Quiz Rblayer's All-Time Top 10 Entertainment Trivia

Answer: Hadleyville

The name of the town where Marshall Kane, played by Gary Cooper, fought Frank Miller and his gang is never mentioned in the film. A large sign with the town's name is seen on the wall of the railroad station. Actor Lee Van Cleef played a member of Miller's gang. Van Cleef, who went on to star as "the Bad" in "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" did not have a single word of dialogue.

From Quiz "Dark Angel" Will Never Die!

54. Actor Harrison Ford has a small but visible scar on his chin from a car accident. Which of his movies goes back in time to "explain" how his character received the scar as a teenager?

From Quiz Not Done With Special Effects

Answer: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

River Phoenix plays young Indy in a scene that shows him getting cut on the chin by a bullwhip, which will later become one of the adventurous archaeologist's trademarks. The same scene explains how he got his hat and his fear of snakes. (In 'Working Girl', Ford's scar is explained as the result of an ear-piercing mishap, but the incident is not re-enacted on screen.)

55. "Five passengers set sail that day".

From Quiz Movies and TV Shows Lyrics

56. Alyssa Milano played this TV witch, with the power of premonition, levitation, and sensing feelings (empathy).

From Quiz Which Witch Is Which?

Answer: Phoebe Halliwell

This is on the television show "Charmed." A bit of trivia: Did you know that, on the show, her power of levitation became so expensive that the producers of the show cut it out completely?

57. "I'm not going to be ignored, Dan!"

From Quiz Remember These Lines?

An unforgettable line for an unforgettable performance by an actress. Glenn Close was superb as Alex Forrest in this 1987 romantic thriller.

58. This television heartthrob might have made a great Indiana Jones in "Raiders of the Lost Ark", but he had to pass because he couldn't get out of his TV contract. Who is he?

From Quiz First Choice for the Part

Answer: Tom Selleck
