Entertainment Trivia Thread

Cafe Society

I’m kicking off this thread mainly because of a question my team got at the bar where we play trivia on Monday nights.

spoke- was there, and he was the only one on our team who knew the answer. Moreover, he knew it instantly; the question was barely out of the triviator’s mouth before spoke- was whispering the answer to the woman writing on the answer sheet. I was sore impressed.

Anyway, the question (if you know the answer, post it and pose a question of your own):

What do the characters Dracula, Sid Vicious, Beethoven and Lee Harvey Oswald have in common?

I got it in one.

All played by Gary Oldman.

Oops, my question:

Name two of the three Gary Oldman movies in which his character has been told “You are a monster” or something very similar.

Wow, a five-minute response! Impressive.

My guess (and it’s only a guess) is Dracula and Sid and Nancy.

Nope, but I’m going to give it to you for two reasons:

  1. to kick start this thread and
  2. I may have made this too obscure.

The correct answers were:

  • Air Force One
  • Lost in Space
  • The Fifth Element

I’ve not seen any of those three movies, but that doesn’t make the question obscure, of course.

Okay, here’s my follow-up:

Who was the first WHITE performer, a solo artist, to appear on Soul Train?

I’m pretty sure it was David Bowie - about the time of Golden Years.
