This is a game I invented to amuse myself in idle moments. The object is to connect one movie to another in a series of titles where the linking element is a significant word in the title. For example I can connect Casablanca to Johnny Mnemonic in a chain of six links: Casablanca - A Night in Casablanca - Night of the Living Dead - The Year of Living Dangerously - Johnny Dangerously - Johnny Mnemonic. The challenge would be posed thus: Casablanca to Johnny Mnemonic in 6. This example is pretty difficult so here is another: Apollo 13 to Mississippi Burning in 4: Apollo 13 - 13 Ghosts - Ghosts of Mississippi - Mississippi Burning. I’ve never tried to come up with a solution since I’ve only created chains. So this is really a test of difficulty. It may turn out to be simple or it may be nigh impossible. I will give you these rules for now and more later if the game works:
-
The linking word cannot be an article or conjunction or preposition unless it is a major part of the title.
-
The linking words can be forms of the same word such as swim=swims=swimming=swimmer.
See if anyone can do this one: Mission:Impossible to Attack of the Killer Klowns in 4.
