Question 5
S: Which actor best nailed capturing the character from a book?

Very few matches on this question:

Spoiler:




Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman 0
ruddiger 718



Sean Connery as James Bond 0
Cabman Gray



Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lector 0
Drexl



Marlon Brando –0
Dave Ninja



Al Pacino as Michael Corleone 0
Sleepyhead55



John Malkovic as Lenny 0
Story



Jack Nicholson as Randal McMurphy 0
Crocker Jarmen



Jack Nicholson as Jack Torrence 0
Davidh777{sd}

Another waster slam dunk and finally we get to some matches:

Brainee -3
Shannon Nutt -3
Ivelostr2 -3



Ian McKellan as Gandalf –3
rocket1312 -3
Rockmjd23 -3

I can’t tell you how surprised I am that this is the winner:

I'm glad I matched -- it gives me some hope on other Sheep questions.

Re: Shhhh! Book to Film Sheep

Question 6:
R: Name a movie in which Mary Shelley appears as a character.



The answers for this one were all over, even though no one picked Haunted Summer (which I remember for its sexy VHS cover) or Frankenstein Unbound (which sees MS played by Bridget Fonda), nor a recent film (I’ve never seen) called Lives and Deaths of Poets.

Wrong anwers:

Spoiler:




Freddy Got Fingered
Obi-Wan Jabroni +7



Her name may be in the title but the little lady is not on the screen.

Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein
ruddiger 718 {sd} +7
rocket1312 +7
Sleepyhead55 +7
Davidh777 +7




Van Helsing
Drexl +7



Mary Reily
Fist of Doom +7



Frankenstein
Dave Ninja +7

Now the correct answers:
Spoiler:




Bride of Frankenstein +5
Cabman Gray +5
Kal Varnsen +5
Story {sd} -5
Hasslein +5
Crocker Jarmen +5



Gothic +4
Brainee +4
Wishbone +4
Shannon Nutt +4
Ivelostr2 +4

And OUR UNIQUE!!!!!!!!!

I imagine he's a sucker for Hugh Grant/Elizabeth Hurley period piece flicks.

I knew this was wrong, but couldn't come up with anything. Shouldn't ruddiger get a negative for playing a dunk, though?

See, I knew there was something somewhat recent that would have been a correct answer, but I never saw this. I was thinking more along the lines of costume-n-parlor fare.

I haven't heard of this film and I've watched a lot of shitty Hugh Grant films. The last two questions have been very difficult but I enjoyed the challenge of trying to figure out the answer.

Since the answer is incorrect, the Slam Dunk does nothing.
