	Corleones doesn't quite fit since it's a large group of people over two movies. I think it would have been better if it had been confined to a singular character who only appears in one of the movies (Peter Clemenza and Johnny Fontane may be minor characters, but The Godfather is such a major pop culture movie that I imagine it'll still be far more gotten than the main characters in, say, Out of Africa).

	In addition to my little egomania in the previous comment, a very good and fun quiz overall.

	sacremende:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 04:38 GMT	12 points
	One correction: It's T.E. Lawrence, not just Lawrence, even if it an obvious answer.

	WithShoes:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 05:29 GMT	13 points
	Somehow I knew MovieDynamic would have the first comment.

	drpickem:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 05:38 GMT	29 points
	Somehow I knew that MovieDynamic would have a negative comment score.

	Detektor:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 07:26 GMT	13 points
	Somehow I knew that MovieDynamic would then be disparaged for it.

	Kudos @ JohnJF. And what's with the clue for Lawrence of Arabia? Did you get your answers and questions mixed up? Fail.

	Koltrane:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 09:21 GMT	3 points
	Yep, looks like the Lawrence of Arabia question is set up as if it is an answer. Need to change that one. Otherwise good quiz.

	I can't believe "Bridge on the River Kwai" is the lowest one guessed. It's one of my favorite moves of all time!

	rockgolf:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 12:37 GMT	19 points
	I think they all should have been single characters. Suggested replacements: Rose & Jack --> Jack Dawson The Jets & The Sharks --> Officer Krupke The Coreleones --> Sonny Coreleone (he only appeared in the first)

	DarkPhalanx:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 12:49 GMT	11 points
	I like your suggestion Rockgolf, but I feel duty-bound to point out that Sonny Corleone appeared in the second film as well

	Franck63:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 12:58 GMT	4 points
	Thanks for your suggestions but I cannot modify it any longer. If you enjoyed this quizz try an earlier version "famous movies by their character" or "best picture by location" or "best picture famous losers". If not I"ll do better next time.

	how is casablance under 40%? rick blaine should be a character everybody knows

	cthulhu:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 13:45 GMT	2 points
	I can't see any reason why 'The Godfather, Part II' is not an acceptable answer for 'The Corleones.' Just because it's almost certainly not what will be typed in first doesn't mean it isn't correct.

	icing:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 15:29 GMT	1 point
	Kinda' tough, but you've got a lot of really great titles here! Great job, Franck63!

	Yvonne_india:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 17:12 GMT	2 points
	Rick Blain is the main character , but might not make the association of that name with Rick's Bar, the location around which the film is set. That's what threw me on that one. On the whole, great quiz and interestingly taxing.

	If only one of the clues was Tom Jones...

	Paulici87:	Aug 22nd, 2010 at 20:07 GMT	-2 points
	One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest alone took me one minute to type.

	quent1979:	Aug 23rd, 2010 at 03:09 GMT	4 points
	I'd love to know who the 35% are who didn't know Rhett Butler....for cryin' out loud.

	livfred:	Aug 23rd, 2010 at 04:08 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz, and perfect amount of time. After getting what I knew, there was time for a few guesses, but not enough time to guess my way to 100%. Nicely done.

	fwmac5:	Aug 23rd, 2010 at 18:14 GMT	2 points
	yeah, 2 Streep movies!

	You really should put Scarlett O'Hara for gone with the wind. You owe that much to the amazing viven leigh who totally stole the show

	The Lawrence of Arabia thing still needs to be corrected.

	ihatetrivia:	Jul 6th, 2011 at 22:20 GMT	1 point
	?? Where's the rest of them?

	mrdhenshaw:	Aug 4th, 2011 at 11:03 GMT	1 point

	Great quiz, but come on guys don't change Lawrence of Arabia. Some of us don't know who he is.
