I like this game....I'm sitting at my desk going through all the DVD's and VHS I own for this sh!t.

As for the VETO on the one rule, I'm cool with keeping it. That was the only way I could connect the two actors (and I didn't realize while thinking and writing that Brad Pitt was used already).

Man this is hard. BTW, what's IDMB? I googled it and didn't find anything.

IMDB - internet movie database. The best movie site...ever
The rule was basically put in place so that people don't just use Ocean's 11 and Sam Jackson for every try.

Tony (and everyone else), there are a couple of tricks to being good at this:

Think of actors who have been in a bunch of movies, good and bad - Steve Buschemi, Sam Jackson, Tom Hanks, Tom Sizemore

Think of movies with a lot of big name people - ocean's 11, heat, sin city etc.

Think of actors who do a bunch of movies together - Kevin smith's regulars, Tarantino's regulars, Robert rodriguez regulars, Ben stiller regulars.

Then try to find connections between the big groups.




I repeat: Collin Farrell and Will Ferrell

Colon Farrell and Jon Favreau in Daredevil
Jon favreau and Vince Vaughn in Made
Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell in Anchorman



The insight (or personal hint) for myself on this is that Will Ferrell and vince Vaughn were in a recent movie together. You can't think of Vince Vaughn without thinking of Jon Favreau (at least for me). I just watched Daredevil this past weekend during the day on Showtime OnDemand (or was it HBO).
