If 'Cheapie Tuesday' is highlighted on the calendar in thick yellow marker, and if the thought of an endless bucket of butter-drenched, lightly salted popcorn gets the mouth salivating just that little bit, then it's safe to say that, perhaps, you're a bit of a film buff. If your ideal first date is dinner and a movie, but without the dinner, and even without the date, then, again, the motion picture medium might just be the one for you.
If the 'Pre-Talkies' and the Silent Era of the 1920s tickle your fancy, and if you walk around whistling the simple yet iconic tune from Fritz Lang's 1931 film "M", then you've come to the right place. Even if you can't recite every line in Goodfellas or sing (off-key, most likely) every song in The Lion King, you may still think you have one it takes to pass this quiz.
From the animated classics of Disney and Pixar, to the enormous Marvel Cinematic Universe that has taken the film world by storm over the last decade, and every Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino and Ridley Scott film in between, there is no shortage of wonderful movie content to watch for hours, days, months and years on end. But, have you been paying attention to the details? What color is Mr. Incredible's cape? Wrong, he doesn't wear one.
So, think you're a fit of a film nerd? Let's find out how true that really is.
Who said "Luke, I am your father"
Dun dun, dun dun dun dun dunnn, dun dun dun duunnn dunnn... dun dun dun dun. In a galaxy far far away, one famous villain uttered these words that would be etched into cinematic history for decades to come. According to IMDB, this epic sci-fi film centers around the plot of "Luke Skywalker, who joins forces with a Jedi Knight, a cocky pilot, a Wookiee and two droids to save the galaxy from the Empire's world-destroying battle station, ...". All these years later, this famous quote is still known throughout the majority of households. But, which character uttered those words?
What is this character's name?
The late, great Robin Williams plays this iconic character in a film titled... well, that would give away the answer, so we're not going to tell you. As Wikipedia states, this film "follows a recently divorced actor who dresses up as a female housekeeper to be able to interact with his children. The film addresses themes of divorce, separation, and the effect they have on a family." Furthermore, it "grossed $441.3 million on a $25 million budget, becoming the second highest-grossing film of 1993 worldwide". More than 25 years later, this film still remains as one of Robin Williams' most classic and well-known movies.
Which song plays in this famous Disney scene?
Is there a more iconic Disney movie than The Lion King? We could debate that for hours and probably still not come to any reasonable conculsion. What we can decide and agrere on, however, is that The Lion King is one of the classics. As IMDB describes, the plot follows: "a lion cub crown prince is tricked by a treacherous uncle into thinking he caused his father's [demise] and flees into exile in despair, only to learn in adulthood his identity and his responsibilities." So, for a kids' movie, there are some pretty mature themes running throughout the film. So, which song plays in this early scene?
What is the full name of this Harry Potter character?
For anyone born in the 1990's, this film franchise, adapted from J K Rowling's best-selling novels, is as iconic as any film series imaginable. IMDB states that "the series was mainly produced by David Heyman, and stars Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson as the three leading characters: Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger. " However, such a detailed world is created by Rowling, involving a number of important lesser-known characters. This one, who eventually finds love with our main man Harry, is the younger sister of Ron, and truly makes her mark in the latter part of the series.
What is Tom Hanks' character's name in "BIG"
Rotten Tomatoes says it best: "More than anything else, 13-year old New Jerseyite (played by David Moscow) wants to be "big". That's the wish he makes at an odd-looking amusement pier fortunetelling machine. The next morning, [he] wakes up-only to discover that he's grown to manhood overnight! (At this point, the acting role is taken over by Tom Hanks). Still a 13-year-old mentally and emotionally, he decides to hide out in New York City until he can figure out what to do next." Big is a classic, through and through. But as much as we remember the movie, the character's name is a little harder to recall.
Name this movie!
As Wikipedia tells it, this film "is a 2002 US biographical crime film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay by Jeff Nathanson." It features a young Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays the role of "Frank Abagnale Jr. who, before his 19th birthday, successfully forged millions of dollars' worth of checks while posing as a Pan Am pilot, a doctor, and a legal prosecutor" (according to IMDB). With a supporting cast of Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken and Amy Adams, among others, this film has gone down in history as one to definitely be remembered. But what's is its name?
Where does Kevin's family go on holiday in Home Alone?
If there's a more recognisable child actor than Macaulay Culkin in Home Alone, we haven't heard about it. As Rotten Tomatoes describes: "Home Alone is the highly successful and beloved family comedy about a young boy named Kevin who is accidentally left behind when his family takes off for a vacation... over the holiday season. Once he realizes they've left him home alone, he learns to fend for himself and, eventually has to protect his house against two bumbling burglars (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) who are planning to rob every house in Kevin's suburban Chicago neighborhood. Though the film's slapstick ending may be somewhat violent, Culkin's charming presence helped the film become one of the most successful ever at the time of its release"
Which town does the Grinch live in?
While there have been plenty of remakes of this Dr Seuss classic, the most well-received, as normally is the case, was the original. When you've got a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, you must be doing something right. As Rotten Tomatoes shares, "Chuck Jones' animated version of the classic Dr. Seuss book How the Grinch Stole Christmas originally aired on television in 1966 and has since become a holiday family favorite. Voiced by Boris Karloff (who also narrates), the Grinch lives on top of a hill overlooking [the town] with his dog, Max. Each year at Christmas time, the Grinch's hatred grows stronger toward those... cheerful [townspeople]"."
"IT" is based on which author's book?
To whoever thinks that clowns are entertaining, cute or friendly, we suggest you watch, or re-watch "IT". Pennywise and his red balloon can make even the bravest, baddest, toughest people on the planet crawl under their bed and not want to come out. IMDB outlines the film's plot: "In the summer of 1989, a group of bullied kids band together to destroy a shape-shifting monster, which disguises itself as a clown and preys on the children of Derry, their small Maine town." So, as far as clowns go, we think we'll take a hard pass on spending a weekend with this one. But who wrote the book?
Name this Guardian of the Galaxy
If there has ever been a cuter superhero, we're yet to discover it. The film follows the plots of "the Guardians [who[ struggle to keep together as a team while dealing with their personal family issues, notably Star-Lord's encounter with his father the ambitious celestial being Ego" (IMDB) While this character only appears in Guardians of the Galaxy 2, he's arguable the most memorable of the entire film. As outlined by TheVerge, In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, the anthropomorphic tree-man Groot is no longer the towering, full-sized version voiced by Vin Diesel in the first film, but rather a pint-sized pipsqueak". The number of plush toys and memorabilia sold of this character would have been astronomical.
How many original Ghostbusters were there? (Who were also professors)
Who are you gonna call? Ghostbusters! Directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Sigourney Weaver, among others, this action comedy fantasy film has cemented itself as a pop culture icon. In the original film, which was released in 1984, the audience is taken along for a ride with a number of "former parapsychology professors, [who] set up shop as a unique ghost removal service" (IMDB). A 2016 remake, featuring an all-female Ghostbuster squad threw this legendary film back into the spotlight and reignited its popularity for both the older generations and the younger ones. So, happy many Ghostbusters were there at first?

This 2005 film, directed by Mike Newell, is where the audience really gets to know Cedric Diggory (played by Robert Pattinson). As Pottermore outlines for us: "As the events of [the competitive tournament] proved extra stressful, Harry sought Sirius's advice a lot, which was heartening to see."
What is Buzz Lightyear's home planet?
To infinity... and beyond! This space ranger, along with his best pal, cowboy Woody, is the face of the Toy Story franchise. We're going to go out a limb here and declare that Toy Story is one of the top three Disney Pixar films of all time. We'd be happy to be proved wrong, but nobody has enough time for a never-ending debate like that. As told by the Disney website itself, "While Buzz Lightyear's sole mission used to be defeating the evil Emperor Zurg, what he now cares about most is keeping Andy's toy family together" (toystory.disney.com). So, which is his home planet?
What is the title of the fourth Jurassic Park film?
No matter how bad your day is going, if you've been splashed by a car driving through a puddle or dropped your toast butter-side down on the floor, at least there aren't vicious man-made dinosaurs running rampant in your backyard. The original Jurassic park, released in 1993 and directed by Steven Spielberg, showcased some of the best special effects of any film made at the time. The hyper-realistic dinosaurs turned heads and wowed audiences. As IMDB tells it, in the fourth Jurassic Park installment, "A new theme park, built on the original site of Jurassic Park, creates a genetically modified hybrid dinosaur, the Indominus Rex, which escapes containment and goes on a [rampage]". Well, that's not ideal in the slightest.
Name this Adam Sandler film!
According to Wikipedia, "after becoming a Saturday Night Live cast member, Sandler went on to star in many Hollywood feature films that combined have grossed over $2 billion at the box office." Of all these films, the majority have Sandler taking the reins as lead actor in similar comedic roles. So, over the years we've come to expect some great laughs and chuckles when he's on the big screen. We're not naive and can definitely appreciate that some of his films are more entertaining than others, but ask nine out of 10 people, and the'll agree that Sandler as a go-lucky golfer is one of his best.
Where do the boys visit in The Hangover 2?
In the first installment of this comedy series, "Three buddies wake up from a bachelor party in Las Vegas, with no memory of the previous night and the bachelor missing. They make their way around the city in order to find their friend before his wedding", as outlined by IMDB. It's a messy morning fuelled by questionable decisions the night before, and they wind up with a tiger, an infant and a whole lot of confusion. In the sequel, the boys are on another adventure. They've obviously learnt their lesson and won't be returning to Las Vegas, so where do they go?
What are the screaming letters in Harry Potter called?
If you've ever got in trouble with your parents while walking in at the wee hours of the morning, only for one of them to spin around in their chair, turn on the light and say, with a snarky, condescending tone, "do you have ANY idea what time it is", then you'll empathise for Ron Weasley. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when Ron steals the flying family car with Harry, exposes it to the Muggle world, and then crashes it carelessly, he receives a scolding letter from Mrs Weasley. This magical letter is as intimidating as any teenage boy could imagine.

James' Cameron's Titanic is one of the most well-known films of the modern era. The film follows the true story of the Titanic's sinking in 1912, and stars a young Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. Cameron's adaptation stays true to the details of the ship's sinking as much as possible, however he also adds in an over-the-top love story and a handful of heartstring-tuggers for dramatic effect and audience engagement. One of these notorious tear-jerker scenes is the band on the ship, continuing to play as the mammoth cruise liner slowly falls deep toward to ocean floor. Their song is powerful, but which was one it?

Which year was Escape From Alcatraz released?
If there's a more notorious prison out there, please, point us in its direction because we haven't heard of it. Situated in the San Francisco bay, Alcatraz has a unique history unlike anywhere else in the United States or the world, for that matter. Boasting a title of 'unescapable', many inmates attempted to flee, yet ultimately failed. However, Frank Morris, played by Clint Eastwood in the Don Siegel-directed film, had other ideas. IMDB summarised the plot: "Alcatraz is the most secure prison of its time. It is believed that no one can ever escape from it, until three daring men make a possible successful attempt at escaping from one of the most infamous prisons in the world."
Who directed Blue Velvet?

"Jeffrey Beaumont, a square-jawed young man, returns to his picture-perfect small town... Walking through a field near his home, Jeff discovers an ear, which he immediately brings to the [authorities]. Their disinterest sparks Jeff's curiosity, and he is soon drawn into a dangerous drama", as told by Rotten Tomatoes. Interestingly, however, there was supposed to be much more. According to IMDB, "Originally running at nearly four hours, Blue Velvet was cut to approximately two hours (120 minutes) for distribution. The missing footage was put in storage and apparently lost for good."
What does the Tin Man want in The Wizard of Oz?
The Wizard of Oz, released in 1939 (yes, you read that correctly) will go down as one of the greatest films of all time, especially as one of the earlier motion pictures to utilise colour to its full potential.

One of these characters, Tim Man, desperately wants something. What is it?
Which of these films is NOT in IMDB's top 5 of all time?
The people have spoken, and accoring to IMDB, three of these four films are considered among the best of all time. That's not to take anything away from the fourth option, which is a phenomenal film in its own right. Does the crime-fighting masked superhero take the cake, or do the people prefer the fantasy and mystery of Frodo's adventures through Middle Earth? Does Toy Story 3 break into the top five as the only animated film, or has The Shawshank Redemption stolen the attention of viewers and film critics around the world? Regardless, we highly recommend watching each of these films again and again.
Which of these is a famous Joker quote?
Sure, Bane has an incredibly unique and ominous voice, and, Scarecrow certainly isn't the friendliest of villains, but no Batman antagonist can quite compare to the wacky, sadistic Joker. To echo DCcomics, who so eloquently describe the Joker: "The green hair. The crazed smile. The maniacal cackle. You know exactly who he is and how far he'd go to put a smile on your face." The way he puts that smile on your face, well let's just say it's not through knock-knock jokes a punny one-liners. Heath Ledger's representation of this twisted character is one of the best individual on-screen performances in recent times. So, what's his famous line?
What's this little dude's name? (Frozen)
The 2013 icy, animated flick Frozen has kids and parents of all ages bellowing out the soundtrack upon leaving the cinema.

Petunia Dursley was the older sister of Harry's mother, Lily Potter, but took the surname Dursley when she married Vernon Dursley. They had a son named Dudley."

As IMDB elaborates, "Welcome to a world where time has become the ultimate currency. You stop aging at 25, but there's a catch: you're genetically-engineered to live only one more year, unless you can buy your way out of it. The rich "earn" decades at a time, becoming essentially immortal, while the rest beg, borrow or steal enough hours to make it through the day."
What is this Monsters, Inc character?
This character is the arch nemesis of our favourite monsters, one being a one-eyed, green, rather unintimidated and short one, while the other is big, blue, purple and fluffy, with a great scare factor.

As told by IMDB, Lindsay Lohan "began her career at age three as a Ford model, and also made appearances in over sixty television commercials, including spots for The Gap, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, and Jell-O".

Grab your apocalypse survival kit, because according to this film, the world is going to end! Only those with tickets will be allowed on board the boats, but finding one is easier said than done.

We've seen these glorious mythical creatures appear in a number of different films and TV shows, including Harry Potter (most notably in The Goblet of Fire, when students must go head to head with these rare beasts), The Hobbit, How To Train Your Dragon, Game of Thrones, and many more. These mythical beasts can sometimes be befriended, but naturally as wild creatures, care must be taken at all times. This one certainly isn't one of the most friendly we've come across. So, which on-screen dragon is it?

What is Hermione Granger's Patronus?
When Dementors are slowly approaching, ready to whisk the life out of our beloved Harry Potter characters, the impressive yet difficult Patronus charm is the only way to shoo them away. As told by Pottermore, "The Patronus is the most famous (and famously difficult) defensive charm. The aim is to produce a silvery-white guardian or protector, which takes the form of an animal. The exact form of the Patronus will not be apparent until the spell has been successfully cast. One of the most powerful defensive charms known to wizardkind, the Patronus can also be used as a messenger between wizards."
50 First Dates is set in which USA state?
Directed by Peter Segal and starring Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore and Rob Schnieder, 50 First Dates follows the intriguing love story between Henry Roth, and Lucy Whitmore, who's riddled with short-term memory loss, adding complications to their 'relationship'. Roth, played by the humorous Adam Sandler, is a man usually afraid of commitment. But when he meets her, falls head over heels for Lucy. The roadblock here for them is that each morning, Lucy wakes up, totally oblivious to the events of yesterday. Surrounded by water and sea life, the film is set in a beautiful US state. But which one is it?
