New Trivia Game

[Nightwolf]

Sometimes it seems like movie producers and writers get lazy and rather than come up with a good, unique name for their film, they simply use the name of one of the main characters. For example...

Billy Madison

How many more can you name?

So many titles, but off the top of my head
Charlotte Gray
Amadeus
Patton
JFK
Deuce Bigalow
Johnny English
Zoolander
All the superhero movies - Spiderman, Batman etc

[Nightwolf]

I guess I should have been more specific. I was looking for first and last names in the title. One word names could have been a whole seperate game, as well as titles with two names seperated by the word 'and' (Sid & Nancy, Kurt & Courtney, Howard & Melvin, etc.).

Here's a few more...

Billy Bathgate
Billy Elliot
Johnny Dangerously

[D!mensio_x]

Johnny Mnemonic (Keanu Reeves) :D

cheech and chong
bill and ted

Nice one! How could I forget that - my kids watch it all the time. :D


@ quiksilver_aus - Austin Powers is another good one that I never thought of.

I'm actually surprised at how many we've come up with. When I started this topic I only had about 3 or 4 in mind.

Good job to all!

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)


That's not the name of a character. :rolleyes:

Forrest Gump was a good one though. I should have thought of that.
