Six degrees thread ... rebooted

this game is going to be more labor-intensive this time. IMDB seems to have discarded their little tool that lets you search for movies where someone appeared with someone else. either that or it's just been so long since I've had to use it that I've forgotten how to find it.

and if that's the case, how long until I can't find my penis? :eek:

it is on the left hand side, under "credited with"


I had no idea that tool existed.

That means there will be MUCH harder pictures to identify, since now I know just how little work y'all have had to do compared to me. :mad:
 
NOTE HOW LENIENT I WAS BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST ROUND IN A WHILE,
BUT -- Technically, King was wrong. There was a movie called Watchman and what he meant was Watchmen
Last time, when we had been playing it longer, and a similar situation occured, all I did was point out that the string was incorrect.
I.e., if you misspell a film's name, and accidentally provide the name of a different film entirely, spelling counts.



1. Sharlto Copley was in The A-Team with Patrick Wilson (mrtnmoon)
2. Patrick Wilson was in Watchmen with Matt Frewer (Kingofmycastle)
3. Matt Frewer was in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids with Rick Moranis (packersfan)
4. Rick Moranis was in Spaceballs with John Candy (msmaggie)
5. John Candy was in Uncle Buck with Amy Madigan (sweetgypsy)
6. Amy Madigan was in Twice In A Lifetime with Gene Hackman (BradBigBrain)
7. Gene Hackman was in The Royal Tenenbaums with Anjelica Houston (janeyl)
8. Anjelica Huston was in Prizzi's Honor with Robert Loggia (Salvor-Hardon)


A reminder of the VERY confusing rules:

*I will post an initial picture, a string of pictures in the middle, and then a concluding picture. The first person has to use the initial picture, and one of the pictures in the middle string, and "connect" them when they appear in the same movie. The next person will take the second performer listed in the previous response, and select one of the remaining pictures in the middle string, and find a film those have in common. This continues until there is only one picture in the middle string, which then has to be "connected" to the end picture.
*There may be more than one correct way of navigating through the set of pictures. However, not every choice will let you get all the way through the list. If you think that is the case, and you find yourself stuck, you may back up as far back in the response list as you like and restart the list at that point.
*A person can only post to a particular set once every 24 hours; that is, you may post again 24 hours after your last post on the same set. The clock also restarts with every new set of pictures.
*Only posts in the string that finally makes it to the end will count for points for those that posted on that set.
*The strings will get longer with each correct set of answers (up to a point).
*One last note, these are all film connections ... not television.



Points:
2 BradbigBrain, janeyl, msmaggie, Salvor-Hardon
1 Kingofmycastle, mrtnmoon, newbiebabe, packersfan, sweetgypsy




ANOTHER SITUATION, should make things quicker, actually.
Occasionally, I throw in a set where all the people are from the same set of movies ... like this set.
Since all of this pictures are obviously from the same film trilogy, you cannot use any of the movies in the trilogy from which these pictures were taken. That would be too easy.

me and my big mouth. :rolleyes:
I'm sure there was at least a little discussion of it in the first go-round of the game, tho.
 
I'll start...

MacKenzie Crook was in The Brothers Grimm with Jonathan Pryce

more me and my big mouth... I may actually need some help. I'm not great at sets like these because more often than not I haven't seen any of the movies in big blockbuster movie series like this. I've been looking for about an hour and a half and there's one dude I can't identify. :rolleyes:
 
Sorry Brad but I'm going to start a different path.

Mackenzie Crook was in Finding Neverland with Johnny Depp
 
My goodness, this is slow.


Option #1:
MacKenzie Crook was in The Brothers Grimm with Jonathan Pryce

Option #2:
Mackenzie Crook was in Finding Neverland with Johnny Depp



You may append to either one. Or you can continue to nap in the dark corner there. Yeah, like you're doing now.

That's it, good job. Nighty night.

sorry, but I try not to jump in until I know who everyone is. I may go ahead and give it a shot for the sake of easing your boredom. :)
 
It's too bad LiLo isn't in this list -- I'd like to be able to crack a joke or two about her jail time.

I am in a certain grumbly mood after little sleep last night. Y'all are lucky not to be here.

if you want something to do, you can always go to mlb.com or reds.com and vote for joey votto and kevin youkilis for the all-star game. :)

I have voted for Votto a couple of times. I actually voted for Paul Konerko for the AL. (And with Youk hurt tonight, he probably won't go even if he wins.)

I am surprised this one has been so slow -- it's not like I picked an unseen movie or a very minor character.
