Daily Quiz anyone?

[easthammer]

"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

"I haven't seen it in years but have the DVD as one of my 500 odd on my shelves and it's definitely one of the classics. Films back hen had a certain quality to them, with emphasis on that little thing called script and dialogue, which many of todays CGI laden films seem to have forgotten."

[Far Cough]

"Got the link but only 5 Tora! Tora! Tora! is one of my favourite films, as it shows what happens from both sides point of view. Admiral Yamamoto knew what would happen with a prolonged war. In my view he was honourable but he had to do what he was ordered.."
