In which film do Jim Broadbent, Tom Felton, and Mark Williams appear alongside a main character named Potter?
(OK, this one has more than two answers, but it still fits the spirit of the OP.)
Caucasus Mountains have a region called Albania as well as an Iberia.
Galicia is a region in Central Turkey, Southern Poland and North Western Spain. All come from the word Gaul who used to live in all three.
What Formula One driver clinched the World Drivers’ Championship by finishing fifth in the Las Vegas Grand Prix?
As of this past weekend, there are now three correct answers.
What film has the same plot as The Parent Trap? I’m not talking about accidental resemblances. I mean ones that are close enough that they pay royalties to the same original scriptwriter. In this case, there are at least twelve answers. Yes, there are at least twelve movies based on the same plot. You can find the list in Wikipedia:
Robert Vaughn appeared in which movie based on The Seven Samurai? (Just found out this is a triple answer.)
What’s the third, after Magnificent Seven and Battle Beyond the Stars?
What mid-'80s song about a pink Cadillac features Clarence Clemons on saxophone?
Which 1950s musical, later adapted into a Best Picture-winning 1960s film, contains a song titled “Maria”?
Which movie was based upon a novel by Ian Fleming, produced by Albert R. Broccoli, written partly by Richard Maibaum and features a flying car made by SFX guru John Stears?
Would this be Thunderball and Never Say Never Again?
Joking? Broccoli didn’t produce NSNA.
I read “based on a novel” as meaning based on the same novel and for reasons those two movies were based on the novel “Thunderball”.
But if not then I’m guessing one of the movies is Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the other would have to be The Man with the Golden Gun.
Correct.
Only two. Nelson Piquet and Keke Rosberg clinched the 1981 and 1982 F1 driver’s titles by finishing fifth in the Caesar’s Palace Grand Prix, not the Las Vegas GP.
You could modify the question to say “in the F1 race in Las Vegas,” though technically all four Vegas F1 races (1981, 1982, 2023 and 2024) took place in Paradise, Nevada. The Las Vegas Strip is completely outside the boundaries of the City of Las Vegas, weirdly. (And it really did make sense to call it the Caesar’s Palace GP back then because the track was laid out mostly on the CP grounds - it wasn’t just a sponsorship deal!)
When did The Mets win the World Series (1869, 1986)
When did the Mets lose the World Series (1973. 2015)
Probably just a typo, but the first one was 1969.
The NY Metropolitans lost the 1884 World Series to the Providence Grays
Wow, thanks and had no idea!
Yes and I noticed it too late for an edit. Reasoning for not following up was 1869 was the first year of professional baseball (may not be too relevant), and precedes Ernest Thayer’s “Casey at the Bat” (1888) and the Mets first manager Casey Stengel (1890) (admittedly also irrelevant to the typo regarding the Miracle Mets)
I definitely reckoned using any records of the old Metropolitans would make it a bit of trick question, yet fair enough.
