THE MOVIE GAME - 80s Edition
Welcome to The Movie Game.
HOW TO PLAY/RULES:
The game is similar to ‘Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon’, but more challenging as our game asks you to link two 'seemingly' unrelated 80s Movies in just THREE moves or better. And this version is also much tougher than the SST original because you may only make links using movies from the 1980s. The idea is simple, link the first movie to a second 80s movie via an actor that appeared in each of those movies. That would count as ONE move. See below:
Example:COCOON (1985) to PREDATOR (1987)
1. COCOON starred Brian Dennehy who was in First Blood (1982)
2. First Blood starred Sylvester Stallone who starred in Rocky IV (1985)
3. Rocky IV also starred Carl Weathers who was in PREDATOR.
OR written down like this:
1. COCOON -- Brian Dennehy -- First Blood (1982)
2. First Blood -- Sylvester Stallone -- Rocky IV (1985)
3. Rocky -- Carl Weathers -- PREDATOR
The object is to make the connection in just 3 moves or better.
POST YOUR SOLUTION BELOW. The winning solution is the FIRST solution posted to make the connection in 3 moves or less.
Verify your own solution before you post it.
If necessary use imdb.com. to verify your solution: http://www.imdb.com/
Each game will continue to run until we have a winning solution.
PRIZE: Winner chooses the next pair of movies to connect in the following game.
Disallowed movies/links:
TV & TV movies; animations; voice-overs; narrations; himself/herself credits; uncredited appearances (inc. uncredited cameos); movies not in the english language; movies not premiered in the 1980s.
Please DO NOT post solutions greater than 3 moves.
No Runner-up/alternative solutions.
A 3 move solution beats a 2 move solution if it was posted first.
Thanks.
