Movie Trivia with a Twist

So yesterday I invented a movie trivia game with a twist, ok so It probably exists already … But I made it up off the top of my head.

How to play (Players 1-2)

  • Someone names a film.
  • Then the next person has to name another movie, in which one of the actors from the previous movie was also in.
  • Then they take turns repeating this.

Example

  • Player 1: Batman Begins
  • Player 2: Equilibrium (Christian Bale)
  • Player 1: Lord of the Rings (Sean Bean)
  • Player 2: Sliders (John Rhys-Davies)
  • Player 1: You’re a cunt

Optional Rules

  • Can include Television Series, Animated Series, Games etc as appropriate.
  • The same actor can not be used twice consecutively
  • The same movie can not appear twice in one game
  • The same actor can not appear twice in one game
  • You only win the game/score a point if you can continue the path and your opponent can not.

Alternative Hot Potato Rules (Players 2+)

  • Same rules and gameplay as before
  • Each player has n lives
  • When a player can not continue a chain he loses a life and passes the go to the next player
  • Aim of the game to be last man standing

Simple, but awesome.

I saw Australia and Seven Pounds, both awesome movies.

Regards,
JamesR.

    I don’t see enough movies to be any good at this game.

    what is Seven Pounds actually about? All the trailers say is “Will Smith” and “Director of Pursuit of Happiness”. They’re irritatingly vague. It could be a sequel to I Am Legend for all I know. :P

    Torrent it and watch it, without reading a synopsis.

    I did and it ruined the twist for me.
