	Had a "Wha?!?" moment with James Earl Jones playing Matthew Broderick's dad until I saw the asterisk. Great quiz, sprout. Happy Father's Day to all the dads of the world!

	monkeybrain:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 04:17 GMT		7 points
	the correct title is THE Lion King so that should be included or at least give it to people when the type it.

	You're really going to make us type "A Christmas Story" and not accept "Christmas Story?" Come on.

	sproutcm:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 04:24 GMT		8 points
	@All There was an error on the quiz and somehow the button for removing "a" "and" "the" got clicked off but I fixed it.

	Nathan Lane played the "dad" in the Birdcage?!? Robin Williams was the father to Futterman's character. Nathan Lane was Williams' same-sex partner. If anything, he was the mother!

	Tahnan:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 05:12 GMT		3 points
	Robin Williams was Futterman's biological father, but that doesn't mean that Nathan Lane wasn't also his (adopted, de facto) father.

	fishbiscuit:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 05:17 GMT		14 points
	Yeah but even Futterman's character said that Lane was his mother

	HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	I thought it said Robin Williams and Martin Lawrence.

	Wait a minute...Mother's Day is a different day in the uk/us but they have the same Fathers' Day? Odd to say the least. Good quiz though!

	hempick:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 12:04 GMT		4 points
	I agree. Lane was the mother.

	chikka2:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 13:15 GMT		3 points
	"Albert is almost a breast"...and not Val's father

	Perhaps a bonus answer stating that the "correct" spelling of the Will / Jaden Smith movie does not use the normal spelling of the third word?

	heatherh:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 14:02 GMT		2 points
	Surely the film Father's Day with Robin Williams & Billy Crystal should have been included?

	Grunt2009:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 17:18 GMT		5 points
	James Cromwell and Robert Carradine... that is some deep trivia! Bravo!!

	Rackie:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 18:41 GMT		2 points
	Would it be possible to accept 'At world's end' or 'the last crusade' on their own? I also tried 'On stranger tides' but I'm guessing that might have needed the whole title typing out too?

	Tunnelofglove:	Jun 19th, 2011 at 21:40 GMT		-1 points
	I only got two answers. The first and last ones to be exact. But what's weird, all three animated ones on the quiz are Disney movies.

	Thanks to this quiz, I finally made the realisation that the actor behind Marlin from Finding Nemo and Hank Scorpio are one and the same. My life is just that little bit brighter for it.

	@drn211 I fail to understand why you do this on every quiz with bonus answers. Anyone can read the source code for the pages, but you comment on it like you're some sort of savior revealing all the secrets to everyone or as if you managed to stumble across them by typing in every film in it with a father since the dawn of time. They aren't bonuses. They are the movies I deemed too obscure, or ones that overlapped people I already had in the quiz.

	@GalacticFetus: ...and that his real name is Albert Einstein :)

	I saw Tom Hulce in the "A" section and thought: "they never showed Pinto's dad in Animal House!"

	Finding Nemo is the best father and son movie of all time.

	Bowmana:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 02:57 GMT		2 points
	This was a fun quiz, but my only beef is that you accept "Pirates of the Caribbean" on its own, but don't accept "Indiana Jones" on its own. I wouldn't care if you decided only to accept the full versions, but if you're going to accept a shortened version for one, you should do it for all. Other than that, great job as usual sproutcm!

	drn211:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 03:24 GMT		1 point
	@spoutcm I don't know why I still do it, but I'm certainly no savior. Also, to be fair, not everyone would think to look at the source. At any rate it started on one of the earlier quizzes I took where there was a short debate about recording the bonuses for historical reference. The debate never resolved one way or the other but went with it on a couple of quizzes and since I was never voted down hugely I kept going and I just got into the habit. Honestly I would almost prefer to be voted down so that the comment would remain hidden and only those who want to see it can look at.

	Jon Stewart wasn't the dad in Big Daddy.

	@QhallE, he was, actually. At the end of the movie he gets custody.
