	Interesting and unexpected quiz! I missed quite a few, but the only one I'd quibble with including is Shakespeare plays, since that's one where the chronology isn't nearly as prominent. (Of course, there's the option of just guessing all the plays starting with a vowel. Which is what I did, except of course for the one I forgot.)

	@Tahnan. Thanx for the comment (Your comments are usually pretty spot on) . Shakespeare's gone...I was pretty happy with the chronology but as with the last Oscar winner, they were proving just too elusive. I have kept the answers as bonuses should anybody out there, wish to hazard a guess.

	Have swapped the Michael Jackson album (too hard, so now a bonus). Any other categories graciously considered.

	I don't know about A View to a Kill. It seems like Sporcle protocol would be to drop the leading article and consider that title as beginning with V.

	@RandallPinkston.mmmm to be truthful that's a bit of a dilemma! So...I've kept it as it is for now, but added 'Octopussy' as a bonus with a pointer to the (hastily typed) game note. Thanx

	Picky I know, but it really irritates me so here goes...Edward VIII wasn't EVER, the King of "England". There hasn't been a King (or Queen) of "England" since the Union of the Crowns in 1603 when James VI (of Scotland...the son of Mary Queen of Scots)became King James I on the death of Elizabeth I (of England).

	Wouldnt the last British Monarch be Elizabeth II? Or is there some technicality Im unaware of?

	peanut4:	Jul 24th, 2010 at 12:12 GMT		2 points
	If the last US president is Obama, then the last British monarch is Elizabeth II.

	Reensie:	Jul 24th, 2010 at 12:14 GMT		1 point
	Be fair y2jdilemma, the question, even though it was wrongly termed was for the last KING beginning with a vowel...probably one of the earlier Edwards?

	AutonomusPlebian:	Jul 24th, 2010 at 12:59 GMT		1 point
	Last British monarch to begin with a vowel was Elizabeth II (1952)

	Oops changed 'English King' to 'British Monarch' instead of 'British King.' and rightly got hammered ! PS I'm writing this comment from the Tower of London. The beheading is on Wednesday.

	I kept trying Afghanistan and Iraq for the country the US declared war against...

	Wonderful! For constant efforts to fix glitches, for the great quip about the Tower of London and, for the cleverness of the game itself this definitely deserves to be an editor's pick!

	peterpan:	Jul 25th, 2010 at 00:58 GMT		1 point
	great quiz! i do think a view to a kill is a problem. i thought the whole king vs monarch thing was ok. when elizabeth didn't work i tried edward. no beheading, but stay in the tower.

	I appear to have clicked on the link to this quiz right as you were in the middle of editing the James Bond clue. I was thoroughly confused when the quiz claimed A View to a Kill, rather than Avatar, was James Cameron's most recent voweled film. However, by the time I clicked on the results, the answer had changed to Avatar.

	@Hejman. Thanx for the comment and pick. @peterpan I suppose the James Bond question eventually had to go.(this too is now a bonus!)@Gjarble James Bond in Avatar, now that is a film I'd pay good money to watch.

	Karras:	Jul 27th, 2010 at 01:16 GMT		1 point
	.... how are less than a third of people getting "Avatar?" That's not a criticism for or against the film, but everybody and their dog has heard of it.

	MikeN:	Jul 27th, 2010 at 20:19 GMT		1 point
	The original title as seen at the end of the previous movie was From a View to a Kill

	HEY, The US declared war on Austria in 1942 why doesn't that count!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	Flick:	Jul 27th, 2010 at 22:30 GMT		3 points
	@Samawesome: because the three countries the US declared war against in 1942 were Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania.

	I find it interesting that it has been so long since some of these, i.e. the British PM and the pope. But it was a fun quiz.
