although i would suggest finding a way to group the movies into six categories and using the extra hint column for the main actor from the movie, like the original 10 top 10 quiz

Thank eleni, for your response, I think i will change it to have the actors name as your right, the original one did that. And Charlie, the original quiz had scifi, romcom, animation, and western, no sports.

Well, that could go both ways... it actually came out in 1949 but didn't reach the U.S. until 1950.

Courtroom Drama, early 60s, Spencer Tracy. Why isn't it accepting 'Inherit the Wind'? UGH!! I'm a year too early.

Bonnie and Clyde definately threw me off especially with the surrounding films I was thinking Bugsy but it was too early.

@chumley: I tried Inherit the Wind at first as well. Finally remembered the name of his other big courtroom drama of the time.

I always get Laura and Rebecca mixed up, and I tried the wrong one here. I also forgot Dennis Quaid was in the sports one. Good quiz.

terrific quiz...National Velvet came out in 1944 and the star of the 1979 movie was arguably Dennis Christopher

was thrown by the al pacino 1974 movie - didn't think about sequels - esecially as his 1983 movie brought up 2 answers.

The problem with this quiz is that the categories are very slippery and the rules seem to change on a whim. Is Field of Dreams fantasy or sports? Why are both parts of Godfather included by only one part of LOTR? A lot of arbitrariness here.

Kicking myself for missing Breaking Away - I love that movie. I kept thinking Dennis Quaid/Football. I got 50, but didn't get all 10 in any category. Very fun quiz. =)

Jerry Maguire is NOT a Sports Movie. Can we all agree to drop that idea? Cool.

Wow - lots to quibble with with regards to the AFI's choices, but fun quiz, Sporcle. No Braveheart or Last of the Mohicans under Epics? Instead, Reds?

The AFI sucks at picking sports movies. Field of Dreams is a sports movie. Jerry Maguire is not. And there are like twenty sports movies than Bull Durham, which is tremendously overrated.

The whole genre debate is a bit limiting. The Godfather is a gangster film, but also has elements of family melodrama. Any great film is going to be more than one narrowly defined genre. 12 Angry Men spends about sixty seconds in an actual courtroom. Is it still a 'courtroom drama'? Who cares, it's a great film.

Much harder than I thought it would be. Classifications of movies is very subjective.

These movies a ridiculous just because a movie is old doesn't mean it' classic. How is their no Rudy in sports or Friday Night Lights both of these movies are better than any of the sports movies. How was the Sixth Sense not in mystery.

Cannot imagine why Jerry Maguire is included in the sports movies but Slap Shot is not. (Not the fault of the quiz maker, obviously! But still troubling.)
