Hello, everyone!
This is a thread about rules, deadlines for giving up and allowing someone else to take a thread by just saying what the answer is.
It may end up in the off topic section but I hope not as I think the main guessers in this forum never venture out of it when they are answering trivia questions.
This thread is inspired by my attempts to get people to guess COWBOY was the film that starred Glenn Ford and Jack Lemmon as the movie that was filmed in chronological order because Jack Lemmon did not know how to ride a horse just like his character did not.
I started out giving a couple of clues, realized that no one was getting it and gave out clues such as this;
HINT: I STARTED OUT A THREAD ON THE STAR WHO IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ACTORS IN THE FAVOURITES SECTION CALLED;
______________ __________________ FANS HERE.
I then posted clues in this thread.
The Ultimate Movie Trivia question was thus answered without letting people get bored and ignore it.
What time frame rules would you like to see ?
I also suggest that people occasionally try retyping all of the clues in one post when a trivia thread as I discovered when I did this question about Cowboy.
I did not get angry when Princess of Tap said that she thought she only had to come up with Jack Lemmon as she read only the most recent clue and knew that he was married to Felicia Farr.

Well, you know Paul - as I told you before, Greg used to get Cary's reject scripts.

I think she might have been referring to the fact that a lot of don't get these other channels you mention like Amazon Prime, hula etc.
For those of us in Canada, we get Silver Screen Classics. But if I did a thread on that and didn't mention it was for Canadian viewers only, Americans might look at the thread and not know it could not help them.
Just my thought on what Miss Watusi meant.

We also can't forget THE LAST PICTURE SHOW which kicked-off the film careers(regardless of how long or short) of
JEFF BRIDGES
TIMOTHY BOTTOMS
SAM BOTTOMS
RANDY QUAID
CYBYLL SHEPARD
and also both re-generated and/or kicked into a higher gear the careers of
ELLEN BURSTYN
BEN JOHNSON
CLORIS LEACHMAN
EILEEN BRENNAN
There's probably a few more unknowns at the time who found SOME more work due to this movie, but didn't get much notice regardless.
Sepiatone
Leachman was in an earlier set of films;
Kiss Me Deadly where she opens the film running down the street.
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid where she is he woman Cassidy wants to spend the night with but the two outlaws have to leave the posse is not convinced they have left town.
Other cast members I did not know until this one.

I agree Speedracer;
I will be looking towards my PVR tonight.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR 1935
This was really tough picking a winner:
Lionel Barrymore in David Copperfield
Eric Blore in Top Hat
Donald Crisp in Mutiny on the Bounty
Edward Everett Horton in Top Hat
W.C. Fields in David Copperfield
Fred MacMurray in Alice Adams
David Niven in Splendor
Basil Rathbone in Captain Blood
Bail Rathbone in David Copperfield
Eric Rhodes in Top Hat
Geoffrey Tearle in The 39 Steps
Franchot Tone in Mutiny on the Bounty
Wylie Watson in The 39 Steps
Roland Young in David Copperfield
I had a very difficult tie to break. Since we are going to be having a decade review I need to pick a winner.
So:
WINNER:
ERIC BLORE IN TOP HAT: in plural!
HONORABLE MENTION:
Eric Rhodes in Top Hat: BENINI!

COWBOY:
This is a western starring Glenn Ford and Jack Lemmon.
Jack Lemmon had never ridden a horse before. His character had never ridden a horse before. So Columbia saved time on filming by shooting the movie in chronological order.
That was the question, title, and answer that I asked in Ultimate Movie Trivia.
Usually, movies are not filmed in chronological order. This one was.
So was Stalag 17 so people who had not seen the play on Broadway in the cast and crew would have a realistic reaction when the spy's identity was revealed.

Trivia thread update:
STARLITEYES HAS ANSWERED THE MOVIE SCRAMBLE TITLE WHICH IS ALSO THE ANSWER TO THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA QUSTION.
ARSON GESTS TO POST THE NEXT ULTIMATE TRIVIA QUESTION AS SOON AS HE ANSWERS WHAT FILM JACK LEMMON AND GLENN FORD MADE TOGETHER.
I had visions of these threads taking a week like the Describe the scene game has done and I am simply not willing to let that happen.
Thus I used this Glenn Ford thread AS A CLUE.
Thanks, all.
-
Arson got half of the question correct, so he should finish it.
Arson, what western starred Glenn Ford and Jack Lemmon?
In any case, the thread is yours.
-
Sorry, I didn't read the question. I thought Jack Lemmon was the answer. So someone else can finis it.
Arson is the one who checked the first clue and got the fact that it was a Glenn Ford film - I said I was a big fan of the actor and had created a thread about him - which was filmed in chronological order because the co-star could not ride a horse and his character could not ride a horse. Usually, films are not filmed this way.
-
Glenn Ford was in westerns. As far as I know, Jack Lemon only made one western. This one.
You can find the title in the MOVIE SCRAMBLER. Please try to answer it.
I don't want these threads to take a week like the Describe the scene game did because people have not seen them.
-
True Dargo, but I know that Bill Shatner's gremlin disappeared as soon as anyone looked at him, thus making people think he was crazy.
And now, people here the term and think of the horror movie.
-
The Glenn Ford movie in The Ultimate Trivia question has a chance of being answered now.
The movie title is the same title in the Movie Scramble thread.
Glenn Ford is the Western movie star in the answer of the question, but his co-star was not William Holden.
The reason I am posting here these clues, for people who do not take part in the games and trivia thread is that a clue I gave stated that I am a fan of the star and created a thread in the Favourites section. I did this because there are plenty of people in the games and trivia forum who only look in the forum and not elsewhere when looking for answers.

Glenn Ford and William Holden in Texas?
It is Glenn Ford but the actor is not William Holden.
The 2nd actor was married to Felicia Farr.
The first actor/actress that comes to mind..
