Weekend at Bernies. Excellent choice. Totally slipped my mind.

I had a tough time approaching that question. I didn't know if people would answer based on the first movie being brilliant (and the sequel being terrible) - don't mess with it or based on the first movie sucking so bad (but it still got a sequel) or based on the first movie ending with nowhere else to presumably go.

Spider-man (-4)
Mountain Biker
bootsy
Red Dog
Pharoh

I was going to say Lord of the Rings on the popular question, but I'm not a fan (at least of the books - not into fantasy genre), so I had no clue which was considered the most popular and I couldn't remember the name of the first one although I guess I could have said LOTR I.

R: ×4 There have been so many celebrity deaths in June and July of 2009! _________ was easily the one that affected me the most. (only 'celeb deaths' that have had their own dvdtalk thread will count, so Pakistani cricketer Khan Mohammad is a wrong answer. The thread must exist by the time of this edit)

Wrong answers are worth (32) points!
Dom Deluise - died May 4
Mordred
Millvina Dean - died May 31st..oh so close!
achau9598
Mike Tyson daughter - died May 25th

Dammit, I'm in 24th place. I need a miracle if I'm going to clinch #23.

I've got a bad feeling...

"I didn't know I was so loved! Hi-yo!"

Rypro 525 is our tentative winner! It is so close a recount is mandatory.

I almost went with Amy, but then I decided she was the obvious obscure answer, so I switched. Nuts.

Oh the recount will occur tomorrow, too bad.
