Sorry, I didn't know the last name didn't carry over when I copied my answers. I meant to say Eric Stoltz (w/Cameron Crowe). Is it too late to get that fixed? I didn't have any PMs so I thought none of my answers needed clarification...

Still a wrong answer as it was only 3 movies..? Cameron Crowe hasn't even directed 9 films.

Haha. Ok. I just remember Crowe saying in the Jerry Maguire commentary that he always cast Stoltz in every movie he's done and that's what prompted the answer.

Wait, what about Crocker Jarmen, who submitted the question. Does he get the bonus?

Potential scoring change alert:

Jean Pierre Leaud was in nine Godard films.

Pierrot Le Fou
Alphaville
Weekend
La Chinoise
Made in USA
Masculin Femminin
Detective
Joy of Learning
The Oldest Profession (there was more than one director on this film but upon closer examination Pierre Leaud is given a screen credit for the segment/short film which Godard directed)

Re: Movie Sheep - Choose Your Own Adventure aka I'm Lazy Edition

How did I miss this game Well, I know how I missed this game ... really busy week with the University starting up the semester. But still

This was a really good question, though lots of uniques depending on your film knowledge. But it's hard to be sure of the exact number if you're a more casual fan. For me, I would've gone with Lina Romay (Jess Franco) or Peter Cushing (Terence Fisher ... all those classic Hammer horror movies). But I'm not going to do an Arpeggi and claim dominance from the sidelines Some of the later questions would've kicked my ass.

I didn't even think about Peter Cushing and Terence Fisher! This is sad cause one should never pass up the chance to think of those two. May have to break out the Hammer horror films soon!

With that many zeroes, it looks like there's going to be no really good answer here.
