Let's play a Feud in the Colbert Questionert format!

Actually, I didn’t want to participate at first because there was no way I could predict universal answers for some of the questions. It wasn’t because of the title or Actors Feud 2. Then I decided to go for it anyway and just have fun with it.

I don’t mind two Feuds at once. The more the merrier! :smiley:

Thanks for running this!

What stands out to me is the action movie: Die Hard running away with 15, compared to the next answer at 5. With so many movies in that genre, as well as debuting in the 1980s, it’s surprising how many chose that for their answer.

Thanks for the feud.

Thanks for running this, so much work! A little error is excusable, but I’ll point it out nonetheless:

was apparently not counted in the song question. Buck_Godot can use those points!

Thank you - I will repost the standings.

ETA: Two 4’33" were counted, I just accidently didn’t post them in this list. So no points were changed.

8. You get one song to listen to for the rest of your life: what is it?

8. 4’33" 2

Cool! Thanks for running it.

FWIW, I don’t remember seeing this questionnaire before this Feud. I wonder whether that would have been an advantage or a disadvantage.

I once heard DIe Hard described as an action movie that even people who don’t like action movies tend to like.

Wow, 6th place, that’s way better than I usually do. Lots of scattershot answers, there.

That, and it’s sort of a quintessential action movie. Most action movies, you could describe them as action movies or as something else. Like, the Terminator movies or Aliens could be classed as “science fiction”, and Raiders of the Lost Ark could be “adventure”, and The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly could be “Western”, and so on, but Die Hard is just plain an action movie.

I made 5th!
I have never done so well at one of Rebo’s games!
Huzzah!

Even if you occasionally watch Colbert’s show, you might not have ever seen it. I watch the show fairly frequently, and it’s a bit which he might do one or twice a month. Typically, he does the Questionnert with a big-name celebrity guest, and it appears that they tape the segment the same day that they tape the guest’s main show appearance (which airs the same day that it’s taped), but actually wait to show the Questionnert segment for a few days, for whatever reason.

I can’t believe I finished third, usually I’m about the 40th percentile at best. Somehow, I got mainstream all of a sudden.

Thanks for running this Feud, Rebo!

I just really hope that everyone appreciated my answer.

I admit, I didn’t notice it at first. Apparently, I don’t pay attention to the details!

Here is an example of the Colbert Questionert, with Elton John.

I have started a new feud.
