Why not try these quizzes on empireonline to find out, there are loads of other films to try aswell. You'll have to get a user name and password, but, because they are timed you need to know your stuff and be fast to make it onto the leaderboard...it's not a bad way to pass a friday afternoon...

I know the Indy/German Mechanic fight scene move for move, I've seen it so many times.

I gave a few of those a shot a while ago, they're fun! My only complaint is there is a lot of obscure trivia in them that would be hard for most.
How did you manage Fedoraboy, on the ones you took?

My personal best was 19/20 in about 55 seconds, and the question I missed was an easy question, I just accidentall pressed the wrong answer. Oh, and it was the Last Crusade quiz I did. But I agree with you deckard, too many questions not related to the movie itself, but things like awards and people who did things like "wrote uncredited rewrite.

Well Viper you got me beat! I got 18/20 but I can't recall the time. I did better on Jaws with 19/20.

On what movie? Same as me? (LC)

I did the Raiders,TOD,and LC. I got 18/20 on all three, but I'm not gonna lie I had a few lucky guesses on the obscure questions!

Yeah, I took them several times and used the process of elimination to find the right ones for some of them. The one that took me longest was "which comedian played the sultan" or something like that.

The comedian question stumped me as well. That one was a total guess! I did some of the Star Wars and LOTR's quizzes as well. I think I hovered in the 17-18/20 range with all of them. It looks like Jaws trivia is my strong suit. It would be cool if they switched up the questions every time you took the quiz, because there's way more trivia they could use than just 20 questions per movie.

They do! I got different questions (or at least different orders) every time. they do have like 30-35 questions though.

Looks like I need to play them again, to see if my numbers improve. I thought when I did one of them a second time, it was the same questions all over again. Maybe the first several were the same, and then I quit before they switched up.

Did you quit early?

Yeah I quit early. I thought it was the same quiz all over again. I'll try again soon, see if I improve. They seem to have added even more quizzes as of late!

Yeah, the James bond one was the hardest I took, as it spans over all the movies. I actually just randomly clicked, and ended up getting like 16/20 or something in like 10 seconds :rolleyes:

I've managed 20/20 on Raiders and 18/20 on Temple and Crusade, struggling to get on the leaderboard though, my quickest time is just under 20 seconds fo raiders, starting to get repetitive strain injury tho...

Nice.
My problem is that even when I'm sure of the answer, I hesitate.

The key is to do it that many times, so you know the answers without even looking at the question...thats how I got it down to 20 seconds, but then, I do have a lot of time on my hands...
