| Oh brother... where do I even begin to think about this!
King kong is an oldish movie 1976 so going to go with episode 4 New Hope as it is the oldest.
Initial thoughts are Carrie Fisher; or the lady that potrayed Greedo; if I remember right one of the actors for Greedo is actually a girl.
- I don’t know the answer, but I am assuming the actor that portrayed KKong was a man and hence (since this was the 70s and only straight men and women could marry) the actor in Star Wars is a girl.
I think am going with Greedo - I know you well enough to predict it not someone we would think is played by a woman!
So one of those may be???

| Not many females in the ot. I didn't even know greedo was a female actress. Taking a super wild guess I am gonna go with aunt beru. No particular reason other than she is one of a few to pick from.
Congrats on the 100th question. A great landmark, and actually something I look forward to on here every week. _________________________________________________ Bryan

| Wow... I figured this would be a great question to ask for the 100th question and I wasn't wrong. Hard to believe it's been 100 questions so far... no one got this one right! In honor of this momentous occasion, I figured I would post the scores for you guys! You've all been doing a great job on these and there were some I thought no one would guess but you surprised me many times! The answer is posted with the question... and here are the scores as they stand so far! (Yes I've been keeping track!)
32 - 32% - Times Stumped 18 - 18% - TheSchwartz 13 - 13% - arohk 8 - 8% - trappedtexan 8 - 8% - ArtooDetour 7 - 7% - Craig T 6 - 6% - DarthMatt 3 - 3% - machinegunn 2 - 2% - comicalUser 1 - 1% - Section 8 1 - 1% - lejackal 1 - 1% - DarthBane
So, until next week you scum, may the force be with you always! |

| Congrats on question 100 and well done for stumping us on that one. What a wild question For some reason I was going down the route of the Japanese 60s Godzilla movies, the one vs King Kong, and trying to think of a link, like Mon Mothma (Mothra) or something... I was only about a hundred thousand miles away lol  edit: and thanks for posting up the scores too. Good to see how we've rated all this time _________________________________________________ Paul F,

| WOW!!! The emperor was originally played by a woman!!! I knew it had to be a woman and that it would be a woman we wouldn’t think of - hence thinking of a woman playing greedo ... knew it was a curve ball... but the emperor! Awesome.... I really do love the effort you make in researching these questions. Probabally the best thing keeping this forum going. And I learn something new every time! Thanks! |

| Good Monday to all you happy rebels out there... it's Monday and we all know what that means... it's time for a new trivia question! Kinda hard to top last week's question, but I'll do my best! You all know the rules by now (if you don't and are new, go back thru the thread or ask someone else playing!) So without further ado... here's this week's question.... Question 101: On what popular TV show did R2-D2 fall in love with a fire hydrant?- Answer:
Sesame Street - The characters of R2 and C3PO were so popular they had their own animated television series for a short time and once appeared in episodes of The Muppet Show and Sesame Street where R2 oddly appeared to fall in love with a fire hydrant!
First Correct Answer: Craig T

That was the Muppet Show, but he didn't fall in love with a hydrant on that show, it was Sesame Street! |

| Good Monday morning all you happy rebels out there in internetland! It's Monday and we all know what that means... it's time for a new trivia question! This is gonna be a tough one. Not many people know this and I only know of one source where it was even mentioned so put on your thinking caps, dig out your DVDs and lets see just how good you are! Question 103: The targeting grid used for the Millenium Falcon's cannon is based on what?- Answer:
The targeting grid used for the Millennium Falcon's cannon is based on a paperweight George Lucas saw on Arthur C. Clarke's desk.
First Correct Answer: NO ONE (Bryan gets a half point for bouderashery!)
