IQ: Were you a major ballet dancer?
I was not Mikhail Baryshnikov.
I actually was going for Balanchine.
Okay, but Ballachine’s better known as a choreographer and ballet director than as a dancer.
:smack: You are quite right.
etv78, you could always just rephrase.
Benedict Arnold’s control was really named Maj. John Andre.
Brian Blessed.
Kenneth Branagh.
DQs:
Actor?
Died since 2000?
Won a top prize in your field of the arts?
IQs:
Did you convert to Roman Catholicism after leaving a top job?
Were you played by an actress who also played a witch and an inquisitive MP?
Did you forget your name when you met your future wife?
IQ: Are you an American who helped bring dance to the masses, though not as a dancer yourself?
Unless this is Balanchine again, take a DQ.
DQ1) Real.
DQ2) Male.
DQ3) American.
DQ4) Dead.
DQ5) Last name starts with B.
DQ6) Died since 1900.
DQ7) Best known for the creative arts.
DQ8) Died since 1975.
DQ9) Actor.
DQ10) Died before 2000.
DQ11) Did win a top prize in my field of the arts. (I’ll give you that even though I think that Kenneth Branagh question was REAAAAALLY vague, and Tim Burton was more fitting considering the above Batman stuff.)
Jack Benny forgot his own name when he met Mary Livingstone.
2 DQs for the others.
Yup, Balanchine again. No DQ for me.
Tony Blair.
The same actress who played Cherie Blair, Tony’s wife, in two movies also played Narcissa Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies, and an MP in Skyfall.
I’ll rephrase the third.
DQs:
Oscar winner?
Best known as a dramatic actor?
IQs:
You’re not Jack Benny. Did you forget your name when you met your future wife?
Did you play a king and a robot gunman?
Are you a Texan who’s played an android and John Adams?
Well, since I’d referred to a particular movie in the previous question, I thought it was clear that by “that movie” I meant “that movie.” Sorry!
IQ: Even though you’re known for playing toughies, did you have the rep as a teddy bear at heart?
(NOT Balanchine ;))
YES! Take a DQ! You’ve earned it.
Going for Ernest Borgnine.
DQ: Was that award an Oscar?

I am not Yul Brynner, et cetera, et cetera.
William “Bill” Daniels (KITT, and 1776) isn’t a Texan, so take 2 DQs for 1 and 3.
ETA: Boy, isn’t SCAdian going to be surprised when he logs back in?
That was asked in post #91. Try again.
Yes.
If you check with the city clerk in Gotham City (or whoever the appropriate official is), I believe you’ll find no record of any legal relationship between Batman and Dick Grayson.
Victor Borge, during his performances, would introduce a piece as “by Giuseppe Verdi - Joe Green, to you.”
DQ: Did you play a character who did an impression of a zit being popped?
DQ: Did you ever do stand-up?
No, I’m not Bob Newhart. No, I’m not Elaine Booser. No, I’m not Milton Berle. There ya go, a threefer.
Did you mean this to be an IQ? No, I’m not John Belushi (as Bluto from Animal House).
And you’re right, so go ahead and take another DQ for Mr. Wayne.
