Stupid Movie Title Game

Alex · 02-16-2007, 08:45 AM

Back in my college dorm, one of the stupid drinking games (is there any other kind) involved movie titles.

The first person would name a multiword movie title and the next person would have to give another multiword movie title whose first word was the last word in the previous title.

Break the chain and you drank.

This memory popped into my head this morning because for some reason "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner with Andre" popped into my brain fully formed. So then I started a little solitaire version of trying to come up with the longest chain beginning with Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.

The longest I've come up with so far is in the spoiler but I wondered how others would do. Research is cheating.

Ha! This is like a demented version of the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon (Why can't we have the Six Degrees of Kevy Baby?)

Anyway, I get stuck at level 4....

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Apocalypse Now
Now Voyager
Voyagers

hmmm, I should really do better than this...

I was thinking others would try it with Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (and it just occurred to me that the proper title is My Dinner with Andre not Dinner with Andre so good thing I dumped that chain) but by all means post your own chains.

I'd get
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Apocalypse Now
Now You See Him, Now You Don't (Disney movie! Bonus points!)
Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (for flamboyance)
Hood of Horror
Horror High
High Plains Drifter

And then I've back myself into a corner.

Spoiler:

You can maybe justify Jerry Lewis's "The Bellboy" at the end there.

According to the rules we played by if you wanted to use a movie that starts with A or The you had to first have a movie that ended with those words.

But I'm pretty sure there's not Rules Council For Stupid Drinking Games that will get peeved if we don't follow that.

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Dinner Party
Party Girl
Girl Trouble
The Trouble with Harry
Harry Potter and the socerer's Stone (of course Phoenix or Fire could be the last work here)

You could continue with Stone Cold. The Hollywood-career pinnacle of that most manly of men: Brian Bosworth.

Not Afraid · 02-16-2007, 11:54 AM

Stone Cold
Cold Mountain (or Cold COmfort Farm)

. . . Chamber of Secrets
Secrets and Lies
Lies My Father Told Me
Me, Myself and Irene

Spoiler: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner Dinner for Eight Eight Men Out Out to Sea (I have a relative in this movie) Sea of Love Love at First Bite Bite the Bullet Bullet for a Bad Man Man of a Thousand Faces Faces of Death Death Becomes Her Her Highness and the Bellboy At this point I'm stuck and can only come up with a Donald Duck short called Bellboy Donald, which I don't think would have counted.
