i think 6 is toey maguire

Anonymous said...

i mean tobey maguire not toey...toey aint never been in nothin

robyn said...

6 is not tobey maguire... if you'll name the movies, as well... the 500 points are yours... only this one time, because i'm feeling generous...

Anonymous said...

well robin williams is from the movie JACK and jack ryan is from hunt for red october patriot ganes clear and present danger...and as a bonus if you call now...ben afleck as jack ryan in sum of all fears!!!!BOOYAH!!!

Anonymous said...

well then 6 could be justin whalin cause he played jimmy olsen in lois and clark the new adventures of superman. though tobey was in blossom

robyn said...

okay chris... just for you... just this time... i'll give you 1000 points for the extra jack trivia... because i think it's awesome that all the names are the same... but i'm cutting it off now...

no... it's not justin whalin... justin whalin and tobey maguire were guests on blossom... but neither one of them was an abusive date to blossom...

then im stumped. i thought for sure the single focused hint was about cameras.of course im a camera guy so it would. so my final guess is one a friend gave me and that is the karate kid himself ralph maccio. great one though really challenging.

robyn said...

nope... not ralph macchio... good try with the single focus implying a camera... that's a good idea... but once you see the answer, i'm thinking it will all make sense... this is my favorite question of the whole quiz!!!

Amy said...

chris, why are you sucking up?
haha...

robyn,
i knew some of those...i should have reread them...grrr

Andrea said...

i feel the same way amy...i didn't read very carefully on some...

7. white squall

i finally got it...single focused like cyclops. james marsden played the punk jock guy.
