Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The "James Bond" Series Throughout 24 movies from 1962-2012, six different actors have played the role of the suave British secret agent James Bond. In which of the listed titles was Australian actor George Lazenby selected for the role?

Answer: On Her Majesty's Secret Service

George Lazenby was cast in the role after Sean Connery announced his retirement from the movie franchise, after completing five films in the lead role.

Lazenby himself chose to leave the role after completing his only James Bond File, in part due to "creative differences" with the production company.
Sean Connery returned two years later (1971) to star in his sixth and final role as Agent 007 in "Diamonds Are Forever".

Sean Connery, the actor who originated the screen role and became most associated with the character, starred in "Dr. No" (1962), "From Russia with Love" (1963), "Goldfinger" (1964), "Thunderball" (1965), "You Only Live Twice" (1967) and "Diamonds Are Forever" (1971).

Roger Moore took over as James Bond and starred in "Live And Let Die" (1973), "The Man with the Golden Gun" (1974), "The Spy Who Loved Me" (1977), "Moonraker" (1979), "For Your Eyes Only" (1981), "Octopussy" (1983), and "A View to a Kill" in 1985.

Timothy Dalton played Bond in "The Living Daylights" (1985), and "Licensed to Kill" (1987).

The role next went to Pierce Brosnan, who starred in "GoldenEye" (1995), "Tomorrow Never Dies" (1997), "The World is Not Enough" (1999), and "Die Another Day" in 2002.

Daniel Craig played James Bond "Casino Royale" (2006) "Quantum of Solace" (2008), and "Sky Fall" in 2012.
2. The "Batman" Franchise Which movie featured George Clooney in his only role as the masked "Caped Crusader"?

Answer: Batman & Robin

George Clooney played one of the title roles in the fifth Batman movie to be released, "Batman & Robin" in 1997.

In the film, Clooney was paired with Chris O'Donnell as Robin, and pitted against arch-villain Mr. Freeze, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The film also introduced Alicia Silverstone in the role of Barbara Wilson, who was revealed to be Batgirl.

The 1966 film, "Batman", also referred to as "Batman: The Movie", starred the original cast from the "Batman" television series, with Adam West in the title role.

The next two movies, "Batman" (1989) and "Batman Returns" (1992) featured Michael Keaton in the role of Batman.

"Batman Forever" (1995) starred Val Kilmer as the lead character.

George Clooney was the fourth of five actors to star as Batman.

Christian Bale played the Batman role in "Batman Begins" 92005), "The Dark Knight" (2008), and in "Dark Knight Rises" in 2012.
3. The "First Blood/Rambo" Franchise In which film did U.S. Army Col. Samuel Trautman respond to the statement by Sheriff Will Teasle, "Whatever possessed God in heaven to make a man like Rambo?" by stating, "God didn't make Rambo, I made him"?

Answer: First Blood

It all started in 1982 with the film "First Blood". The character John Rambo, a troubled former U.S. Army special forces Vietnam War veteran, afflicted with Post traumatic Stress Disorder was introduced.

Rambo, a loner, wandered into the quiet town of Hope, Washington, and is shortly thereafter arrested by the local sheriff as a vagrant.

While being processed by the local deputies at the sheriff office, Rambo is abused by the staff because of his failure to speak or cooperate. When one deputy attempts to dry shave him while he is being restrained by other deputies, Rambo experiences a flashback from when he was being tortured after being captured by North Vietnamese soldiers, breaks free, injures several deputies, and escapes.

Sheriff Will Teasle (Brian Dennehy), who was not present during the assault, organizes a search for Rambo in the woods surround the town. The tactics used by the deputies proved to be no match for the skills of the experienced special forces trained Rambo. Rambo attempts to convince his pursuers that they are no match for him, using non-lethal means to show their inexperience.
Teasle, while at the search command post and perplexed as to how one man could seemingly defeat his trained deputies, laments, "Whatever possessed God in heaven to make a man like Rambo?"

The reply comes from Colonel Sam Trautman (Richard Crenna), a recent arrival to the command post. "God didn't make Rambo, I made him". Trautman, attired in his military uniform further explains the Rambo was trained to be a killing machine.

When questioned by Teasle as to why he was sent by the army, Trautman replied, "I don't think you understand, I didn't come to rescue Rambo from you, I came here to rescue you from him". Trautman further explained that Rambo was an expert in guerrilla warfare, an expert in using weapons and his bare hands to engage his enemies, and that he was trained and conditioned to ignore pain and weather, to live off the land, and "eat things that would make a billy goat puke".

Rambo eventually turned himself in to Col. Trautman after causing a little additional havoc on the corrupt law officials and small town, and survived to fight another day ... specifically in three movie sequels.

Sylvester Stallone starred as John Rambo in four action/thriller films:
"First Blood" (1982), Rambo: First Blood II" (1985), "Rambo III" (1988), and "Rambo" (2008).
4. The "Die Hard" Franchise 230 souls perish when terrorists cause Windsor Flight 114 to crash at Dulles Airport. Chief of Air Operations Director Trudeau ordered his air traffic controllers to "stack 'em, pack 'em and rack 'em" (incoming airline flights) until a solution to his airport's takeover by terrorists could be found. Which film featured this as part of the story line?

Answer: Die Hard 2: Die Harder

The second installment of the "Die Hard" movie franchise starts with what seems a peaceful Christmas Eve trip by John McClane to Dulles International Airport to meet his wife's plane.

McClane unknowingly falls into a drama involving a rogue army colonel with a band of mercenaries who plan to hijack the airport's air traffic control network and free a drug lord who is scheduled to land at Dulles to be turned over to law enforcement officials. The mercenaries manage to take control of air traffic control, warning the airport that any attempt to stop or interfere with their mission will result in severe consequences.

Airport officials attempt to thwart the mission, and true to his threat, the leader of the mercenaries, Col. Stuart (Willian Sadler), caused an incoming airplane with 230 passengers and crew to crash land on the Dulles runway.
The tragic consequences calls for Chief of Airport Operation Trudeau (Fred Thompson) to inform his air controllers not to permit any additional air traffic within Dulles' air space.

The tense situation is finally addressed and resolved by John McClane (Bruce Willis)in this action-packed movie.

The "Die Hard" series included the original 1988 movie "Die Hard", "Die Hard 2" in 1990, "Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995), "Live Free or Die Hard" (2007),
and "A Good Day to Die Hard" in 2013.

Bruce Willis starred in all five films as police detective sergeant, and later lieutenant, John McClane.

One trivia note: in this film, McClane was an employee of the Los Angeles Police Department, and in the film previous to this and the following films, McClane worked for the New York City Police Department.
5. The "Lethal Weapon" Series LAPD police sergeants Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh attempt to assist at an active crime scene by deactivating a car bomb in the garage of an office building. With nine minutes and seven seconds left before the bomb explodes, Riggs and Murtaugh discuss their options on resolving the matter. Riggs determines he can stop the bomb by cutting either the "blue" or "red" wire of the explosive device. With six minutes and fifty-eight seconds remaining, Riggs cuts the "red" wire, which greatly accelerates the clock on the bomb. Riggs and Murtaugh run for their lives, exiting the building seconds before the bomb detonates, destroying the entire building. As a result, Riggs and Murtaugh find themselves "busted down to patrolmen", and in uniform walking a foot beat in downtown Los Angeles on the following day. Which movie starts with this film sequence?

Answer: Lethal Weapon 3

This was the first of two light comical scenes at the beginning of the film to help establish the premise of the film and the close partnership between the two lead actors.

The following scene showed Riggs and Murtaugh in police uniforms, walking their foot beat in downtown Los Angeles. The pair confront a man committing a jaywalking right in front of them, and become perplexed trying to figure out how to fill out the traffic citation form, a task neither has done in many years.

The main plot of the film involved a former rogue police lieutenant, Jack Travis (Stuart Wilson), who through his knowledge of police computers was able to locate and steal confiscated weapons and ammunition from police property storage rooms and resell them to "criminal elements". Of particular interest to police officials were the theft of armor-piercing bullets known as "cop killers" that started to appear in gang and street crimes.

During the course of the investigation after being reinstated to the sergeant rank by their captain, Riggs (Mel Gibson) and Murtaugh (Danny Glover) meet and eventually team up with Lorna Cole (Rene Russo), a determined police Internal Affairs Division sergeant assigned to investigate the thefts from police property storage facilities.

Comical relief through the film is provided by Leo Getz (Joe Pesci), who is eager to aid and assist his friends, Riggs and Murtaugh, in solving the crime.

Throughout the four movies of the franchise, six actors in addition to Gibson and Glover played the same roles in each film. The actors included Murtaugh's wife (Darlene Love), his three children (Traci Wolfe, Damon Hines, and Ebonie Smith), Steve Kahan who played Riggs and Murtaugh's boss, Captain Murphy, and Mary Ellen Trainor, who played police psychiatrist, Dr. Woods.

Actor Paul Tuerpe played different minor roles in each of the four films. In "Lethal Weapon" (1987), he played a mercenary, a South African hitman in "Lethal Weapon II", (1989), a henchman in "Lethal Weapon 3" (1992), and a police helicopter pilot in "Lethal Weapon 4" (1998).

By many accounts, the "Lethal Weapon" movies series is considered the best "Buddy Cop" movie of all time, featuring a mature, veteran, by-the-book family man Sergeant Roger Murtaugh, with a younger, slightly unstable, hot-headed maverick police sergeant Martin Riggs.
6. The "Mission: Impossible" Series In which film is Ethan Hunt accused to selling government secrets to an international criminal and the murder in Prague (Czech Republic) of a fellow IMF operative?

Answer: Mission: Impossible

In "Mission: Impossible" (1998), the first of four movies in the series, Tom Cruise was introduced as IMF Agent Ethan Hunt.

In the first installment of the series, Hunt is framed for the murders of the six members of his Impossible Mission Force (IMF) team of which he was a member.
The team had been in possession and charged with securing an NOC (non-official cover)list from the U.S. Embassy in Prague, which contained a comprehensive list of all covert actions and undercover agents in eastern Europe. The belief was that Hunt was in possession of the list, and he was to meet with an international arms dealer known only as "Max", who was willing to spend ten million dollars for the list. Hunt's personal mission throughout the film was to clear his name.

Tom Cruise portrayed Ethan Hunt is all four of the movies which included: "Mission: Impossible" (1996), "Mission: Impossible II" (2001), "Mission: Impossible III (2006), and "Mission: Impossible-Ghost Protocol" (2011).
7. The "Bourne" Franchise Which of the four movies in the franchise featured Aaron Ross as the lead character?

Answer: The Bourne Legacy

In this, the fourth film of the series, Jeremy Renner stars as Aaron Cross, a U.S. Department of Defense Black Ops member. Cross is involved in a highly classified program that, with the addition to pills known as "chems" can genetically enhance the physical and mental abilities of covert field operatives.

After information about the program is publicly revealed, a decision is made to end the project and "eliminate" all evidence that the program existed, which includes government-sanctioned assassination of the program participants.

While seen in photographs through the film, title character Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) does not appear in the film.

Films in the Jason Bourne series includes: "The Bourne Identity" (2002), "The Bourne Supremacy" (2004), "The Bourne Ultimatum" 2007), and "The Bourne Legacy" (2012).
8. The "Indiana Jones" Series In which film was Dr. Henry Walton Jones, Sr. located and rescued by his son, and together they search for the "Holy Grail"?

Answer: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

This was the third in the four-movie Indiana Jones franchise. The film was set during the pre-World War II days (1938) and involved a race with the Nazi government to locate the legendary Holy Grail.

While famed archaeologist Henry Jones, Sr. (Sean Connery) worked on his research in finding the Holy Grail, he is captured and held prisoner by representatives of the Nazi empire, who are also searching for the Holy Grail to use it as part of their master plan to establish world dominance.

Upon hearing that his estranged father was missing, Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) sets out to locate him.

After successfully locating him at Brunwald Castle, where he was being held on the Austrian-German border, the two men manage to escape, and together search for the Holy Grail, hopefully locating it before the Nazis do.

The experience brings father and son together in a way they never bonded before.

The Indiana Jones series, which was always highlighted with beautiful scenery and action-packed film sequences, included "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (1981), "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" (1984), "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989) and "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008).
9. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" Franchise In which film do Will Turner and Jack Sparrow team up to rescue Elizabeth Swann?

Answer: Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

"Curse of the Black Pearl" was the first in the series of "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies, starring Johnny Depp as the swashbuckler Captain Jack Sparrow, Orlando Bloom as Will Turner, and Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Swann.

Elizabeth Swann is kidnapped by the crew of the "Black Pearl", as she is believed to be the answer for ending the curse placed on the ship.

Will Turner, who is determined to rescue her, enlists the aid of Jack Sparrow, the pirate captain who once lead the "Black Pearl" before being marooned on an island by a group of his crew.

The "Pirates of the Caribbean" series involved four feature length films: "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" (2003), "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" (2006), "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" (2007), and "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" (2010).

Bloom and Knightley were featured in the first three films of the series.
Completing all four films were Depp, Geoffrey Rush as Capt. Hector Barbossa and Kevin McNally as Joshamee Gibbs.
10. The Jack Ryan Series In which film did Jack Ryan match political and military tactical wits with Marko Aleksandrovich Ramius in an "international incident"?

Answer: The Hunt for Red October

Captain Markos Ramius (Sean Connery) commanded "Red October", a Soviet nuclear submarine possessing a 'caterpillar drive propulsion system' that, when activated, rendered the submarine silent and undetectable to sonar.

Violating his orders, Ramius took the boat to the eastern coast of the United States to conduct missile drills. Fearing that Ramius was planning an unauthorized attack on the United States, the Soviet navy dispatched a submarine to destroy the "Red October".

U.S. government officials are briefed on the incident and its possible ramifications by CIA Analyst Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin), who also suggests his theory that Ramius has chosen to defect from the Soviet Union.

With the approval of the government, Ryan is airlifted to the Atlantic Ocean, where is is allowed to board the U.S. submarine "Dallas" to arrange a meeting with Ramius to verify his true intentions.

"The Hunt for Red October" (1990) was the first of four films in the series.
"Patriot Games" (1992) and "Clear and Present Danger" (1994) featured Harrison Ford in the role of Jack Ryan. Ben Affleck starred as Jack Ryan in "The Sum of All Fears" (2002), the final movie of the series.
