My old one is as follows: Tomorrow Never Knows 1. Malapropism 2. The Rivals 3. Bath (Bath, Somerset) 4. Ken Loach 5. Kes The second was: Cat Soup 1. Braindead (Disambiguation page) 2. Braindead (1992 film) 3. Peter Jackson (which when I clicked on it, had the picture Wikipedia uses for Baby and the caption "Peter Jackson, as of 2006" which I thought was oddly amusing/disturbing) 4. Halo (film) 5. Neill Blomkamp (to see who this fellow was that was going to be directing a video game movie) 6. Alive in Joburg Here's one that shouldn't kill anyone: Godard to Tarantino back to Godard. edit: I made a thread concerning the Alive in Joberg movie and its director, if you want to talk about it further after you've watched it and such. As for a monologue, the first one that comes to mind is the one in Paris, Texas and Google also tells me that there's one in Apocalypse Now and Patton, if you don't mind the war movies. Plenty in Glengarry Glen Ross.

Am I supposed to post the name of the actual wiki pages or the name of the links I took to get there? I posted the name of the links.

You got it in fewer clicks than I did. I went:
Jean-Luc Godard French New Wave Jean-Pierre Melville Quentin Tarantino Art film Breathless Jean-Luc Godard
But yours is more compact than mine. nonfiction, you're up.

Opeth1. BitTorrent 2. World of Warcraft 3. Computer and video gamesOkay, you could take two paths with this one. The first path is just going straight: Mother / EarthBound Zero to Bruce Lee. The second path involves making it past these articles:
Mother / EarthBound Zero 1. 2. 3. Neil Gaiman 4. 5. 6. Dick Dale 7. 8. 9. Harmonica 10. 11. 12. Tinto Brass 13. 14. 15. Bruce Lee If you go the first route, that's fine, but if you really want to earn a degree in kickassology, you'll go the second route. I don't mind if several people want to tackle the second one, and then post their guesses for what they think the blanks are. I'll let you know if you got them right if you post them, so post what you're able to get.

Well, the good thing about this one is, say you can only figure out the links between Neil Gaiman and Dick Dale. If you post what you got, then you could help someone else get closer to completing this mystery. It's a collaborative effort.
Finals? It's only the end of the third week of the quarter for me.

Well, you can put your answers in spoiler tags if you want.
We can play like that. You post your answers, and if they match, I'll update the list inside of a {spoiler} spoiler goes whar? {/spoiler} spoiler tag.

i am incredible. everyone worship me. now. Mother / EarthBound Zero1. Groucho Marx 2. Cerebus the Aardvark 3. Neil Gaiman4. Duran Duran 5. Rock Music 6. Dick Dale7. Fender 8. Bruce Springsteen 9. Harmonica10. René Giessen 11. Ennio Morricone 12. Tinto Brass13. March 26 14. 1973 (i don't care if it's cheating!) 15. Bruce LeeHuh. I can't believe that you didn't even follow the same route I went, and yet you still got it. (Except the last part, which you failed horribly for cheating! Bad!) Here was my route, and as you can see, you hit none of the same notes: Mother / EarthBound Zero Shigesato Itoi My Neighbor Totoro Neil Gaiman The Tempest Surf rock Dick Dale Jimi Hendrix Howlin' Wolf Harmonica Brass Brass (disambiguation) Tinto Brass Trademark Hong Kong Bruce Lee But still, you made it. Good job. You get some gatito, if you can find it. You're up, andruini.

You did it wrong, so you only got a couple of classes in, out of the degree, but hey, that's worth something. Got one. I haven't tested this one myself, but how about: Noiseman Sound Insect to The Fountain?

That's a nasty piece of cheating! Did you click on random or what? Otherwise I really just don't get it.

I'll try during the weekend. My major competition in this one would probably be Andy, or maybe even the Captain.

I for one can't get that, but wanted to say ptahole, blackmoses, and I were doing something like this today. One of us would name three things, it could be a band, movie, or actor then the other two would try and connect the three. It was really fun. If I ever get one of these I may do that, give two things and make you have to go through a different thing at some point.

Damn, damn, damn, I have just tried this so much, I was able to get from Burial of Count Orgaz to the film Wages of Fear , but just couldn't do yours. Let someone else try before you tell me how to do it, though.
