Jane Seymour stars as the actress and Christopher Plummer as her possessive manager who threatens her relationship with Richard. From 1980, "Somewhere in Time" was based on the novel "Bid Time Return" by Richard Matheson who also wrote the screenplay for the movie.

Two men, Harmonica and Cheyenne, vow to help her protect her land from the railroad baron who had Frank kill Jill's husband, but each man has his own agenda where Frank is concerned. (Hint: the answer's the one with 'time' in it.)

Answer: Once Upon a Time in the West

4. Come on, time is running out. Pamela Sue Martin and Parker Stevenson play boarding school students in the 50s whose best friends must face the reality of an unwanted pregnancy. There'll be time for reflection later, right now, answer the question.

Written and directed by Peter Hyams, "Our Time" also starred Betsey Slade, George O'Hanlon, Jr. and Edith Atwater. This coming-of-age movie tackles the subjects of premarital sex and back-room abortions.
5. Feel like you're running out of time? An erupting volcano threatens an all-star cast at a plush resort on an island in the Pacific, and no one will listen to Paul Newman when he says there's going to be trouble. Boy, time is really running out on these folks.

Answer: When Time Ran Out...

The movie starred Jacqueline Bisset, William Holden, Burgess Meredith, Veronica Hamel, Ernest Borgnine, Edward Albert, Barbara Carrera, James Franciscus, Pat Morita, Red Buttons and Valentina Cortese.
6. It's about time you got here. Kind-hearted attorney Glenda is approached by her ex-husband (Chevy Chase) for help when he mistakenly becomes a fugitive after being forced at gunpoint to rob a bank. Now she must hide him from her husband, a district attorney, and try to help him clear his name in this hilarious movie written by Neil Simon. It seems like you're playing for time, just pick an answer.

Answer: Seems Like Old Times

Goldie Hawn, Charles Grodin, Robert Guillaume, George Grizzard, T.K. Carter and Yvonne Wilder starred in "Seems Like Old Times", from 1980. This was the second pairing of Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase, they previously appeared together in 1978's "Foul Play".

8. Time flies when you're having fun, huh? A man (Jean-Claude Van Damme) who polices time travel must prevent an evil politician from using profits obtained through time travel to finance his presidential aspirations. Would this be a good time to tell you how well you're doing?

Answer: Timecop

Mia Sara, Ron Silver, Gloria Rueben and Bruce McGill also starred in "Timecop", from 1994. I'm not a Van Damme fan, but I enjoyed this movie. The TV series "Timecop", which aired in 1997, had time traveller Jack Logan going back to stop rogue time travellers whenever a ripple appeared. T.W. King played Jack Logan with a nice comic flair and we really enjoyed the few episodes we saw, but ABC kept moving it around the schedule and then cancelled it (the same thing NBC did to my beloved "Freaks and Geeks"). Oh well, time to get over it.
9. An answer with 'time' makes you fine, get it? Sorry, from time to time I get a bit silly. After a serial killer uses his friend George's time machine to escape the authorities in Victorian England, George (Malcolm McDowell) must follow him into the future to stop him before he kills again. You're doing very well, for the time being.

Answer: Time After Time

David Warner, Mary Steenburgen and Patti D'Arbanville also star in "Time After Time", from 1979. Writer/director Nicholas Meyer also wrote three of the "Star Trek" movies.
10. Time for one more? This early 80s comedy/drama showcases the lives of several California high school students as they go to malls, try to attract the opposite sex and exchange barbs with their teachers. Time's up!

Answer: Fast Times at Ridgemont High

Cameron Crowe wrote the screenplay based on his book which he wrote after spending a year posing as a high school student. He appears in a cameo as one of Mr. Hand's students. A springboard for several up and coming actors, "Fast Times" starred Sean Penn, Judge Reinhold, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Robert Romanus, Brian Becker and Ray Walston. Also starring in smaller roles were Forest Whitaker, Eric Stoltz, Nicolas Cage, and Anthony Edwards. Directed by Amy Heckerling, the movie was released in 1982.

Thanks for playing, hope you had a wonderful time. Or the time of your life.
