Ba-Ba-Black Sheep: Movie Bad Guys (Reverse) SHEEP Game

Ba-Ba-Black-Sheep: Movie Bad Guys (Reverse) SHEEP Game







The basic rules:

Intro for first time players
Spoiler:
(Reverse) Sheep is a game that is part Family Feud, part trivia game. The object of the game is to outwit other players through a series of questions that are usually united in theme. There are two types of questions.

The first, Sheep, is one where you try to think like everyone else and match their answers. The more people you match, the better you do. Let's say we have a game of six players (A through F). A Sheep question might be something like "Name a great color." Sheep questions never have right or wrong answers. Let's say our five players answered like this:

Players A, C, and E said "Blue"
Players B and D said "Green"
Player F said "Chartreuse"

Scoring in Sheep games is like golf: the lower your score, the better. The "Blue" players get -3 points (and the best answer). The "Green" players get -2 points. Player F did not match anyone and gets 0 points.

The second type of question, Reverse Sheep, is the exact opposite. You want to avoid matching other players. A Reverse Sheep question might be something like "Name a state on the Atlantic Coast." Reverse Sheep questions always have right or wrong answers. Let's say our players answered like this:

Players D and E said "Delaware"
Players F and B said "Maine"
Player C said "Texas"
Player A said "South Carolina"

The "Delaware" players get +2 points (a penalty, since you want to have a low score). The "Maine" players also get +2 points. Player C's answer might be debated among the players to see if it is considered correct or not. Wrong answers always score above the most common answer. You're always better off going for something obvious than for something obviously wrong.

That's the gist of it. Each person running a game adds little rules here and there but those are the basics.


General Rules
Spoiler:
The object of the game is to out-think everyone by picking answers to questions that are the most common (Sheep) or least common (Reverse Sheep), but still correct.
Example Sheep question: "Name a professional golfer." A good answer might be Tiger Woods and a bad answer might be Chichi Rodriguez.
Example Reverse Sheep question: "Name a play by Shakespeare." Romeo & Juliet might be a bad answer, but Two Gentlemen of Verona might be a good answer. (Unless everyone is trying to go as obscure as possible).
Scores are tallied according to the number of players answering that question. Sheep answers are tallied as negative. Reverse Sheep answers are tallied as positive. The lowest score wins.
There is no such thing as wrong answer for a Sheep question.
Wrong answers in Reverse Sheep are scored two points above the most common answer.
You may not cheat by using Google, Wikipedia, etc. Use only what's in your head.
Please send in your answers to me via PM. Place only one answer per line, without numbers, set info, or the question itself. Add {sd} to the end of the answer, not the beginning. Those who do not do this will be penalized 10 points right off the bat.
Note: Be creative with your answers, but don't be stupid.
Sheep questions are marked by an S:, Reverse Sheep questions are marked by an R:.


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 movie featuring Hitler

02. S: Name one of the deadly sins in Se7en

03. S: Name a movie villain who wears a mask

04. R: Name a movie besides The Terminator in which Arnold Schwarzenegger says "I'll be back"

05. S: Name one of the naughty children to tour Willy Wonka's factory

06. S: Name a movie involving the drug trade

07. S: Name a movie involving an alien attack

08. R: Name a member of the Corleone family from The Godfather trilogy

09. S: Name a WW2 movie

10. S: Name a movie with a prison scene

11. R: Name the subject of a Michael Moore documentary

12. S: Name the villain from a Disney animated feature

13. S: Name an evil movie robot/computer

14. S: Name a Bond villain

15. S: Name a horror movie slasher

16. S: Name a movie about a corrupt cop

17. S: Name a movie based on a real-life criminal

18. R: Name one of the on-screen Reservoir Dogs by their colour

I have submitted my answers, and unlike some recent games I do have a correct answer for each question. Now whether they will be sheepy....

A movie slasher ... that would be an editor or a critic, right?

[ badsheep] On question 1, what exactly do you mean by "featuring"? [ /badsheep]

Answers submitted! Pretty confident with these. Struggled again where to put the slams. Which will probably be my undoing.

I'm guessing that Crocker thought up the name of the game first, then had to find some questions to match. As long as he went through all that trouble, I figured the least I could do was submit some last-place answers.
