Look up a movie or TV show on IMDB, and you’ll find, among other things, a list of keywords that have to do with the plot and/or cast of the movie. Pick a movie or TV show, specify which of those it is, and pick three keywords. If you successfully guess, you get to pick the next one.

> [@Munch](#): > > Mine: > > Fairytale > Poison Apple > Divorce Attorney You forgot to specify if it’s a movie or a TV show per the OP. (And I figure we could probably throw Video Games into the mix, since they are listed on IMDB as well.) I can’t think of either a movie or TV show that involves a poison apple and a lawyer, though. ---

If Munch’s answer to the first one was wrong, then I’ll go with _Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels_. ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > Mine (#3): > > Escape Pod > Genocide > Robot > > This one is deliberately tricky.
