	These quizzes are what make Sporcle an every day endeavor

	mad props on the second answer. Love it. surprised they haven't made a show already.

	mungar:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 08:56 GMT	39 points
	I'd watch "Dirty dancing with the stars".

	Kicking222:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 08:57 GMT	0 points
	So, so, so, SO much better than the first one! Some of the clues were legitimately tough (unlike the first B&A, which I strolled through in about a minute, I didn't get a perfect score on this one), and a lot of the hints and/or answers were brilliant plays-on-words. Bravo, Henry. This is fully deserving of a 5/5, and I can only hope that even a few of my quizzes will have as much ingenuity as this one.

	Black Jack Black was pretty brilliant.

	IHateRegistering:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:11 GMT	20 points
	Michael Bay of Pigs... sounds right to me

	MovieDynamic:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:12 GMT	2 points
	"The Unbearable Lightness of Being John Malkovich" is a pretty reasonable title, actually!

	zalagreensbury:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:16 GMT	7 points
	shudders I got a very horrifying mental picture at the 'There's something about Mary Shelly' one...hair gel and Frankenstein was involved. blah!

	"Before and After" is a category that is often a throwaway, and I appreciate the wit and work that went into these particular clues and answers. So many of these are funny or really make you think. Even on Jeopardy, the answers are usually more along the lines of "George Harrison Ford" than the much more satisfying "The Unbearable Lightness of Being John Malkovich". Kudos!

	@cog: this game actually requires you to think, instead of just recalling trivia. brilliant

	JohnJF:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:41 GMT	3 points
	I submitted like four of these, but I have a feeling if Sporcle was to credit everybody who submitted potential sequels for this quiz, the list would require its own page. Of course, I endorse many more sequels (as my comment pertaining to this on the first one was voted up well over one hundred times).

	chikka2:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:51 GMT	3 points
	so glad to see a sequel as brilliant as the first. Keep up the great work, Sporcle

	nhrafan:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 09:53 GMT	6 points
	This quiz had too many pop culture references for me to do well, but I still had fun failing! 5/5 for the creativity involved.

	Pyrophorus:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 10:02 GMT	12 points
	I second nhrafan. Any chance of a before and after quiz that doesn't focus so much on movies/television/music? History is good; maybe add some geography and science?

	vogz:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 10:07 GMT	-2 points
	don't know why I put the fantastic four tenors at first on the four seasons... definitely better than the first one but i understand people thinking there are too many pop culture references...i guess you could just say this was a pop culture kind of quiz then?

	vogz:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 10:08 GMT	1 point
	and before and after is probably the best wheel of fortune category...so glad sporcle jumped on the bandwagon

	I'm hoping for a Before and After 3, 4 and 5. Great quiz.

	akbackstreetgirl:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 11:26 GMT	2 points
	@MovieDynamic: Before and After is a category on Wheel of Fortune, but it doesn't involve clues like this game or the category on Jeopardy. So vogz's comment kind of makes sense, but would make more sense if we were simply filling in letters and not using clues.

	I kept trying Sex and the City Filthadelphia, but sadly, that answer was not accepted.

	gracie:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 12:23 GMT	15 points
	how i met your mother teresa? little richard nixon? a time to kill a mockingbird? some of these are much better together than they ever could be on their own.

	Psycho:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 12:36 GMT	5 points
	Sex in the City of Brotherly Love.. That's just sick..

	ekedolphin:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 13:20 GMT	-1 points
	The Unbearable Lightness of Being John Malkovich. Arrrgh. (Loved it, by the way, but only got 9/16).

	same exodiafinder. loved this quiz, i'm mad that i had the lee novel typed in and just couldn't get the grisham one!!! grrrr. (michael bay of pigs is GENIUS)

	ANNA1981:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 14:55 GMT	0 points
	Many of these answers are really funny! :) Dirty dancing with the stars was best. And little Richard Nixon was also funny. But difficult to figure out the clues. Hope we get more of these quizzes.

	HarryHop:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 15:01 GMT	7 points
	I hope I wasn't the only one to find "There's Something About Mary Shelley" absolutely hilarious...

	Ribhump:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 15:41 GMT	2 points
	good fun i have to say, although damn hard with the US specific knowledge required for half the answers (from UK), but still, more please.

	Lean:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 16:10 GMT	0 points
	Great quiz again, keep these ones coming!

	RedLIon:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 17:38 GMT	-2 points
	A bit more difficult than the first! (for me at least.)

	JulieD:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 18:49 GMT	1 point
	Some of these make absolutely awesome results.

	bmo1616:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	0 points
	I think Wrigley Field of Dreams would have sounded better, Coors Field of Dreams just sounds odd lol.

	krose:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	-1 points
	@vogz Ha, I did the same thing with the Fantastic Four Tenors. Not sue where I got that either.
