Jack Nicholson Giveaway!!! (Oct 25 - 28)

briskhound2 said:Personally, I’m totally lost—whether it’s the first names, the last names, or just trying to keep them all straight together. But man, you gotta admit, it’s a brilliant little puzzle... It’s just those actors that are absolutely killing me. I know for the first one we've got Hooper, Bacon, and John C. Reilly. But who the hell is the fourth one? Same deal with the second part. I managed to catch Brosnan and Keitel, but that's about it.

In the first, I'm thinking it's Wahlberg, but in the second, those are definitely the lips of Guillermo del Toro.
for movie 12 is The Crybaby Killer, more or less.

I dug up some grainy stills from The Terror and they kind of gave me that vibe... though I guess I nailed about half of it. I went through a ton of Wahlberg footage and didn't get that feeling at all. Didn't even think of Del Toro—not that he had much to do in The Pledge anyway.

briskhound2 said:Wait, you didn't recognize Batman? You know, that scene where Keaton freezes the image on the monitors and the Joker stays stuck on like five or six different screens? I can't even believe that...

I did. At first, I had to give myself a 🤦 and then tell myself how easy it actually was. But honestly, if you want to see how many anagrams you can pull out of those actors' names... 😁

I caught that immediately, but let’s be real—it’s only because I’ve seen that movie a million times, and quite frankly, just the other day.

So, I guess I'm not the only one 😁

Yes, the mandates were undeniably potent in their sheer conviction, which is precisely why everyone gives the dragon 👍

What kind of logic led you to The Departed?
Here’s how I figured it out:

Humphrey Bogart
Orson Welles
Frank Sinatra
Franco Nero
Alain Delon

Final Solution HOFFA ahaahahahha
🤷

As for the actors, I went with Pierce Brosnan, Morse, Harvey Keitel, Matt Damon, plus Hopper, John C. Reilly, and Kevin Bacon. I didn't write anything down for number 4.

For movie 12, I was leaning toward The Terror, but I wasn't totally sure, so I don't think I even submitted that answer.
1. The crossing guard
4. Broadcast News
6. The shooting (this one really gave me trouble because I kept mixing it up with something else; I ended up watching almost the whole thing on YouTube just to find the answer)😁)
7. The postman always rings twice
9. A Few Good Men (that was easily my best guess)
10. Five Easy Pieces
11. The Departed (I haven't actually seen this one, but based on the trailer, it felt like the right fit)

Honestly, it would’ve been easier just to check the poster 😁

I didn't get anything out of them during the last game, so I just stopped paying attention 🙂

My mind went absolutely all over the place with these associations, and in a moment of pure, unadulterated stupidity, I ended up settling on the one thing that was furthest from my thoughts—though, honestly, I’m pretty sure the Final Solution HOFFA ahaahahahha was the actual answer, it just didn't occur to me until I saw it right here.

ahaahahahha if this is right then it's my epic fail 🤣 and honestly, I'm kinda proud I cracked it 😂

But Dragon mentioned later that it's more about associations than an actual anagram—the catch being they're all dead.😉

Child actors—who's number 3?

Michael Douglas.

Wait, who was the last one? I didn't quite catch him... just that one guy.

I actually went down the same rabbit hole thinking it was question 10 about The Departed, since they're all deceased. But then, wait, I realized that Franca Nero is still alive... so when people suggested it was just an association, I jumped in with "As Good as It Gets"... man, what a total fail on my part.

briskhound2 said:Michael Douglas.

The last one would be Bruce Willis.

hahaha, question 10 is going to be such a disaster🙏🤣😂

For number 10, it's definitely Willis. But honestly, I didn't see number three as Michael Douglas at all. I think I ended up putting Beatty for 🤷

I honestly had no idea about those numbers three and six!!

6. For me, it's Harrison Ford.

And what about the difference? I’d say 8, 9, 8.🤷

I was intentionally skipping Bruce Willis since he already popped up in a previous question, and honestly, he just didn't feel right in this lineup with Walken, Pacino, De Niro, Jerry Lewis, Ford Hopkins... Ah, well, I managed to nail the other 😁

differences—no clue, but I found more than half of them.

Oh, and the association part. For me, it came out as Edward Herrmann, M. Emmet Walsh, and finally Paul Sorvino - reds.

nimblecrane20 said:6. For me, it's Harrison Ford.

And what about the difference? I’d say 8, 9, 8.🤷

I guess for me, if I had to pick, I’d probably go with 10, 8, and 5.

For me, the association is just order...

My list includes:
1. The Crossing Guard
2. Two Jakes
3. Carnal Knowledge
4. Broadcast News
5. Ironweed
6. The Shooting
7. The Postman Always Rings Twice
8. Wolf
9. a Few Good Men
10. Five Easy Pieces
11. Anger Management
12. The Terror

I'm not 100% certain about that last one, though.

For me, the films would be...

1. The Crossing Guard
2. The Two Jakes
3. Chinatown
4. Broadcast news
5. Ironweed
6. The Shooting
7. The Postman Always Rings Twice
8. Wolf
9. a Few Good Men
10. The Shining
11. Anger Management
12. The Terror

This is probably going to turn out pretty bad, if I'm being honest...😉
