Episode 3 Scoreboard

Sorry for the late reply on Cronenberg Trivia, but if Reel Insight can tack on their scoring update - so can we!

And as of posting time (11am EST on Monday 6/27) nobody has sent in submissions for Coens trivia! A potential 24 points are still up for grabs - who wants it?

Here are the results after three rounds, with everyone's point pickup for this episode listed in parenthesis...

Rachel Thuro 37 (+5)
Rhys Bendeix-Lewis 35 (+10)
Courtney Small 25 (+15)
Andrew Buckle 24 (+24)
Shane McNeil 18 (+6)
Duke 12 (0)
Andrew Robinson 3 (0)

Just a quick reminder about the scoring structure - The first person to email their answers is awarded 4 points per correct answer. The second emailed response gets 3 points per correct answer. The third gets 2 points per correct answer. Everyone after that who emails in before 5pm EST the following Friday gets 1 point per.

So, as evidenced by Mr. Buckle this week, just because you are late getting into the game, doesn't mean you can't do some immediate damage on the scoreboard!

Episode 2 Scoreboard

Round two of the trivia game has closed, and I'm happy to see that it brought us a few new players.

One little slip-up though: In my haste to come up with questions, I'd forgotten that Tobey Maguire was in DECONSTRUCTING HARRY. Thus my superhero question is a dead end. As such, I have decided to give everyone who entered the point for that question.

Here are the results after two rounds, with everyone's point pickup for this episode listed in parenthesis...

Rachel Thuro 32 (+12)
Rhys Bendeix-Lewis 25 (+20)
Duke 12 (0)
Shane McNeil 12 (+12)
Courtney Small 10 (+2)
Andrew Robinson 3 (0)

Rhys makes an impressive climb by being first to answer, but rachel maintains her early lead. Lots of time left on the game clock gang, email us your answers for episode three when it drops tomorrow and see if you can give Rhys and rachel a run for their money.

Hatter's Questions
Orson Welles was the only person to be nominated for acting/writing/directing the same film before Woody (two have done it since).
I was going for Spider-Man, believing that neither Andrew Garfield nor Tobey Maguire had been in an Allen film. As previously stated - I was misled.
"Rhapsody in Blue" plays over the opening sequence of MANHATTAN.

Simon's Questions:
Woody has acted in 30 of the films he has directed.
"The defendant did commit an adulterous act..." is from EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT SEX * BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK
Seven Woody Allen films include the name of a place in the title.

Episode 1 Scoreboard

Round one of the trivia game is wrapped, and we have a good little handful of players on the board. Here are the results after one round, and the answers to the questions asked.


Rachel Thuro - 20 points
Duke - 12 points
Courtney Small - 8 points
Rhys Bendix-Lewis - 5 points
Andrew Robinson - 3 points

A good start for Rachel (being the first entry and going 5-for-6 sure helped), but with many episodes still to come, the lead is far from insurmountable. Get in the game people!

Hatter's Questions:
If Scorsese has said that he would have been a priest.
Scorsese's made docs on The Band, Bob Dylan, and The Rolling Stones
Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Francis Ford Coppola did the honours.

Simon's Questions:
There have been 8 Scorsese/DeNiro collaborations
Scorsese has directed 32 films in total (The 14 shorts didn't count)
"Ï don't want to be a product of my environment..." is from THE DEPARTED
