8/10….I only missed Guffman and Crash. Keeping the Faith was pretty easy (the only movie that Norton and Stiller have been in together – and it was obvious is was them).

7/10. Definitely more of these, please. I guess I’m in the minority, but I say the relatively obscure movies are half the fun. Getting “Keeping the Faith” right took some effort, some of the bigger movies jump right out at you.

@ David: Catherine O’Hara’s hair is actually what threw me off. I knew it was her, but didn’t recognize Parker Posey. The hair made me think “Beetlejuice.” Go figure.

That was pretty fun. However, have to second Johnny Cat – Keeping the Faith? Of all the Edward Norton or Ben Stiller movies to choose from…

Hope to see another one of these soon!

I loved this quiz! I got 7/10 because I’ve never seen Crash or Waiting for Guffman. I saw Keeping the Faith a long time ago and couldn’t remember the name of it.

Awesome quiz.

@Jenny:

That’s Robert Hays who plays Ted Striker.

Who (which character) is that in the top half of “Airplane”?

Also – Keeping the Faith is a cute movie. It managed to be quite respectful of the two featured religions while still having the zany romcom-type stuff.

Fun even though I only got 60%!

Didn’t see all of “Waiting for Guffman” but I had a feeling that one was one of the Christopher Guest movies.

I did see “Crash” but still missed that one.

I did pretty well, but I said A Mighty Wind instead of Waiting for Guffman. Though that is a plausible answer since I’m pretty sure Catherine o’Hara and Parker Posey were in both films, as well as a couple of other Christopher Guest films.

@K, I thought the same thing!
