SHEEP GAME: Summertime Fun Edition
Only two more weeks till September, so let's make the most of our remaining warm weather and sunny skies by playing some SHEEP: Summertime Fun Edition!
The basic rules:
Intro for first time players
Spoiler:
General Rules
Spoiler:
Game-Specific Rules
To be considered correct, answers must be theatrically released feature films, no TV shows, shorts or webisodes.
Unique Bonus: Reverse Sheep questions will generate additional bonus (negative) points according to the following:
1 Unique is awarded -20
2 Uniques are awarded -15 each
3 Uniques are awarded -10 each
4 Uniques are awarded -5 each
Slam Dunks {sd} Players have the power of multipliers in their hands. Each player is given five (5) Slam Dunks ({sd}) which they use by adding {sd} to the end of their answer. Your Slam Dunks have different effects depending on the question you use it on:
In Sheep questions, the {sd} adds 1 to the Multiplier.
In Reverse Sheep questions, you can use your {sd} to turn the question into a sheep question for you. However, if your answer is wrong, it does nothing.
Slam dunks cannot be stacked. Use one per question only or else they will be discarded. You cannot use two slam dunks to turn a Reverse into a Sheep and then slam dunk those sheep answers.
And the questions are...
01. S: Name a super-hero movie released this summer
02. S: Name a country visited by Indiana Jones
03. S: Name one of the places the Griswalds visit in NATIONAL LAMPOON'S EUROPEAN VACATION
04. R: Name a character who appeared in all 3 of the original STAR WARS movies (theatrical versions only, and no extras who were given names and backstories in the extended universe).
05. S: Name one of the songs in GREASE
06. S: Funniest actor in CADDYSHACK
07. S: Name a movie taking place around the beach
08. R: Name a movie released during the summer that went on to win the Oscar for Best Picture (summer meaning May-August)
09. S: Name a movie that has/had a ride at Universal Theme Park
10. S: Name a movie featuring boats
11. R: Name a sequel Samuel L Jackson appeared in
12. S: Name an actor who played a masked superhero
13. S: Name a movie in which a character is eaten alive by something

Holy shit, the return of Sheep!
I keep thinking about running another game but response has gotten so tepid that I question whether it's worth the time. I hope you get good response--I'll definitely participate.

Re: SHEEP GAME: Summertime Fun Edition
I can do this. Let me just give a little more thought to some of the questions.
How will you do the matching for #9? Some rides/attractions are from a movie series rather than one particular movie.
I haven't the foggiest idea for #8! While I generally remember Oscar winners, I'm drawing a complete blank for summer-releases. But if I'm reading correctly, a movie released in early May counts as a correct answer (even though Memorial Day weekend is generally considered the start of the summer season).

Re: SHEEP GAME: Summertime Fun Edition
My concern was that answers of a movie series wouldn't match an answer of a specific movie in that series. Though Crocker said he wouldn't do it like that
Ah, a protest wrong answer. If nothing comes to mind, that could be a plan My pretend summer Oscar-winner would be Raiders of the Lost Ark.
EDIT: answers submitted! I don't think my answers are bad, but I had no clue how to play the slams for this one.

I pay very little attention to the Oscars, and I had no idea what movies won so I just took a wild guess at that question and hope I am right.
I also never saw Grease, so I took a wild guess at that question too.

Question 3, are you looking for specific places (like a monument or building) or countries?
