[The Raven]

I think I did ALRIGHT this time. Maybe. Probably not.

[Shovelman]

I am shocked that people are getting the Extra Credit....shocked....maybe I should've put it as a real question

[The Raven]

It's just me and Chilly that have answered so far right? Yeah that question's right up our alley so don't be that surprised.

Anyone else though, start worrying.

[HurriKaty]

I maybe got like 4, if that.

[The Raven]

I knew the Yardbirds one because I'm awesome.

And the OK Corral shoot out, he may give me and he may not. Technically, I'm right though.

The Ledger question is bothering me, because I'm not sure of the answer.

[HurriKaty]

I did decently in Movies and in Wrestling. With that at least I had an idea what Shovelman was talking about.

[Shovelman]

Now we wait for bob.....we may be waiting a while since he's going on a trip this weekend

[bob]

actually right now I'm stuck with an extremely drunk friend who's talkative...I leave on my trip tomorrow

I'll try to get to this tomorrow before I leave

[bob]

my friend just puked...yeah I'll be busy tonight

[Shovelman]

Well I got everyone, here's the answers

2 movies

What does Spider-Man, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest have in common?(HINT: This isn't a question on who's worked on all three)

I was looking for best opening weekend when they debuted but due to the vague and open-ended answers I'm pretty much giving a freebie to anyone who had a real right answer...so that's everyone but TLE and Bob who doesn't read the hints. But I do apologize for the question

Heath Ledger's Supporting Oscar win for The Dark Knight is a milestone for what reason?

He was the first Oscar winner to win for a comic book movie. (The first posthumous was Peter Finch for network in 1977) But I will also accept first posthumous support actor winner(yay TLE) but not second posthumous winner(sorry bob)

2 cartoons

Charles Fleischer voiced Roger Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit..duh. Name one other character he voiced?(There's three other voices)

Benny the Cab, Greasy and Psycho

Being late and being an ass. If you said one you got it right

2 wrestling

The Undertaker wasn't always The Undertaker when he debuted in the WWF, what was he billed as in his first few shows?

Kane the Undertaker

Which member of the Mean Street Posse didn't get the WWF Hardcore belt?

All of them had it.....sorry, I thought one of them didn't get it. I'm striking this question due to my faulty memory.

2 music

True or False: The Pussycat Dolls's "Don't Cha" hit #1 on the Hot 100

Name three people who were in the Shootout at the OK Corral?

Wyatt Earp, Morgan Earp, Virgil Earp, Doc Holiday, Ike Clanton, Billy Claibone, Billy Clanton, Tom McLaury and Frank McLaury. I will not accept Wyatt Earp's brother cause both of them were in the shootout....and you all will need to watch Tombstone.

[bob]

I got the OK Corral question from watching Earp...or Wyatt Earp, it stars Kevin Cosner and I highly recommend it

I've seen both and I recommend Tombstone more.

[bob]

I just seen Tombstone but I'm pretty sure that Wyatt Earp isn't as manly as Tombstone.
