  1. I am not Christina Applegate.
    Take 2 DQs.
44

Correct.
Andrea (no surname given in the book; Stavros in the movie) was played by Anthony Quinn in The Guns of Navarone.

I don’t watch TV, and I seldom watch movies*, so I suspect this is going to be someone I’ve never heard of. As far as I’m concerned you can just do the reveal now and go on to the next round…

  • That I recall, I went to two movies last year (The Man from UNCLE and The Martian), and I’ve watched one on Youtube this year (Roman Holiday). I do plan to go see Moana, though.

I’m really not trying to play “stump the band” here. You both have until noon tomorrow to give your final “Are you Firstname Lastname?” questions.

55

Pass.

56

Likewise.

57

Okay.

I am Jaimie Alexander, star of the hit series Blindspot, who also played Lady Sif in the two Thor movies and on a couple of episodes of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD.

If neither of you have heard of her, the next round goes back to SCAdian.

58

I’ve never seen any of the movies she was in, so I think I can safely say that I actually have never heard of her (as opposed to having heard the name but not thinking it important enough to remember).

59

I vaguely knew of her, but couldn’t name her. I see Prof. P. also just mentioned her in the Five-Word Movie Review thread!

60

Does “I vaguely knew of her” indicate I should proceed with the next round, or should it revert to SCAdian’s hosting?
