	I really love the quizzes that have something extra going on other than mindless answering. the interaction is tons of fun.

	Great quiz!

	Goodness, Jude Law's being a movie hog yet again! grrr!

	I love the idea behind this quiz, but feel that the answers are really obscure. If you haven't seen the movie, you're likely out of luck in guessing it. I liked it, though. Kevin Bacon rules!

	good idea, but some of the movies are a bit obscure. never heard of like 4 of them, and others i just couldn't think of

	Gordo:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 04:46 GMT		5 points
	Which of these movies are obscure?

	Between this and the 1989 quiz, this is a very "Batman"ish morning for Sporcle.

	Read the (long) description. Yes, Sporcle was featured in an article in the BostonGl. http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/articles/2009/06/16/visitors_to_website_sporcle_learn_geography_and_other_subjects____and_have_fun/

	You should make people type out all of "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford." Letting them get it by only the first part is a total cop-out!

	magister:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 05:01 GMT		8 points
	@Escaho: None of those movies are that obscure. It's not like it's "La Jetee" or anything. Also @Sporcle, I really enjoy the format to this quiz!!

	I love it! I missed one, but that's all kinds of fun.

	mungar:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 05:37 GMT		7 points
	I'm not sure why people are saying these are obscure, they are all high-profile movies. Kudos from a lazy man for accepting NBK for Natural Born Killers, I typed it as a joke and it accepted it.

	Gordo:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 05:44 GMT		21 points
	@Escaho - I guess we'll have to disagree. I definitely, definitely, definitely would not include 'A Few Good Men' as anything remotely approaching obscure. It has one of the most famous quotes of movies of the last 25 years and probably the most famous Jack Nicholson quote of any movie - "You can't handle the truth!"

	I sucked on this quiz, but "The Thin Red Line" was really the least gotten one? Wasn't it a Best Picture nominee and aren't these all notable stars listed?

	MetaphysicalMan:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 07:06 GMT		7 points
	I was thrown off Thin Red Line's scent because of Clooney. I don't think of it as a Clooney movie because his role was a cameo at best.

	What class. Not only is it a chain, but in chronological order, too!

	GeminiNL:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 07:29 GMT		4 points
	Unbelievable! I thought of a game like this a couple of years back together with 2 classmates. Back then, we called it the IMDb-game. It's so great that it's now on Sporcle!!

	HalfWelsh:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 10:17 GMT		4 points
	A great idea for a quiz with I'm sure much sequel potential, shame I was so bad at it really!!

	JoeGrzzly:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 11:32 GMT		-1 points
	I've only seen 3 hence I did poorly.

	"The Thin Red Line" may have been nominated for best picture, but it was awful.

	btroup1:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 14:04 GMT		3 points
	5 sporcles from me. I like how you could miss one on its own merits, but still have a chance to get it as you rule other movies out.

	Too bad this quiz didn't come out five days ago in honor of Kevin Bacon's birthday

	Fantastic quiz!

	johnlk:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 15:55 GMT		7 points
	Who hasn't seen A Few Good Men? It's on TV all the ****ing time. And surely even if you haven't seen it it should come pretty quickly to mind as "movie with Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson," given how iconic the final courtroom scene has become.

	jaymc:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 16:08 GMT		4 points
	@Escaho: I've only seen 8 of these, but I got 14 right. "Chicago" and "Cold Mountain," for instance, were big Oscar-nominated movies; "Ocean's 12" made over $300 million worldwide; "Indecent Proposal" was Jay Leno joke fodder for the entire summer of 1993, etc.

	Dimps:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 17:50 GMT		5 points
	This was a fantastic idea and obviously everyone loves it. There should be one like this made for like every actor

	Incredibly clever quiz. Well done!

	livfred:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 02:05 GMT		5 points
	@Escaho: Jack Nicholson was nominated for an Oscar for "A Few Good Men" which featured such other "obscure" actors as: Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Noah Wyle, Kevin Pollack, and Christopher Guest, and was directed by Rob Reiner, and was nominated for three other Oscars including Best Picture. It's a bit of a stretch to consider it "obscure". "She's Having a Baby" might be obscure, but including the obscure with the well-known is what makes these quizes fun.

	While we're enumerating people who worked on A Few Good Men, livfred, I have to toss out the name of writer Aaron Sorkin. I'm a huge fan of his... how did I miss A Few Good Men?

	mschessplayer:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 03:49 GMT		1 point
	Great quiz. I still play "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" online.

	ulashima:	Jul 15th, 2009 at 08:51 GMT		0 points
	Well...I got only 5. The reason is, I know much more of those movies...but cannot remember the third actor/actress was actually on them.

	baronac:	Sep 5th, 2009 at 04:03 GMT		1 point
	I only missed The Thin Red Line, even though I saw it in the theater--soley because of Malick's return. A fine quiz. If any of these movies sound obscure, then you probably have way too much of a life.

	exackerly:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 19:44 GMT		1 point
	Good category,let's see more like this. How about some older movies?

	robschulz:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 22:38 GMT		1 point
	I'm PRETTY sure I wrote Indecent Proposal.. And for some reason, "Natural Born Killers" kept registering as "Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas" in my head..and thats ALL I could think of. UGH.

	Why was Oceans 12 the listed answer? Why not 11?
