    I didn't realize that this trival was that hard. I know Viper gets them but it seems that no one (except Chester and the Mrs.) can do these. I'll try myself in couple of days if no one is going to do this.

    I have to admit that I utilize IMDb for character names, but I have seen all the movies I listed, except Allegheny Uprising. I find these fun, if I am familiar with the movies and actors, but I can understand it not being fun for some. Some of mine are longer because I want to make connections of actors/actresses and films with which I am familiar. Sometimes I make them long because it is fun :rolleyes: . The other thing I personally choose not to do is to include TV episodes, if I can help it.

    It was me :angel1: . . . .


    I had fun with it, and I do realize I could have connected John Wayne as early as Jack Warden (who appeared with Duke in Donovan's Reef), or George Kennedy, who was in The Sons of Katie Elder and Chisum, but it was fun to keep it going a little longer.


    I will confess that I do use IMDb as a resource, especially when you start with more recent movies, since I haven't seen many of them, so I don't even know who's in them. But it is a fun thing to do every now and then :thumbs_up:.


    I hope others won't be intimidated by my longer lists, and take a stab at this fun game.
