These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2016-07-25,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of the Usual Suspects and
are used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may
have been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information
see my 2016-05-31 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
I wrote one of these rounds and one question in the other.
* Game 10, Round 4 - Entertainment - Cue the Famous Line
We'll give you the year and a bit of dialogue from a movie, and
maybe some other detail. You give the famous line that comes
next, either a continuation of the same speech or a response.
All answers appear on the American Film Institute's list of the 100
greatest quotes of all time from American movies. In most cases
you will have to give one sentence (if not, then we'll tell you)
and it's only the key phrases in it that you'll be scored on.
If you'd like to show off for fun, but for no points, you are
also welcome to name the actors and actresses, the characters,
the movies, and in one case, the author and title of the play that
the line alludes to.
Caution: this round may contain objectionable language. Player
discretion is advised.
1. 1944: "You know you don't have to act with me, Steve. You
don't have to say anything, and you don't have to do anything.
Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle." Give the continuation --
the next two sentences.
2. 1942: "Major Strasser has been shot." Give the continuation.
3. 1941, spoken while picking up a black statuette: "Heavy.
What is it?" Give the reply.
4. 1979, two people talking: "You smell that?" -- "What?" --
"Napalm, boy. Nothing else in the world smells like that."
Give the sentence that continues the last line.
5. 1992, two people talking: "You want answers?" -- "I think I'm
entitled to them." -- "You want answers?" -- "I want the truth!"
Give the reply to the last line.
6. 1939: "Home. I'll go home. And I'll think of some way to get
him back." Give the continuation.
7. 1933: "What does it matter? The airplanes got him." Give the
reply. It's two sentences long, but the second one is the one
that will count.
8. 1972, two people talking: "And in a month from now, this
Hollywood big shot's going to give you what you want." --
"It's too late; they start shooting in a week." Give the reply.
9. 1976: "I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want
you to get up right now, and go to the window, open it, and
stick your head out and yell: ..." Yell what?
10. 1967: "Virgil. Funny name for a nigger boy from Philadelphia.
What do they call you up there?" Give the reply.
* Game 10, Round 6 - Canadiana Geography - Toronto Streets, Continued
This round is called "Toronto Streets, Continued". But no, you
didn't miss the first part. This round is about streets whose name
changes at a particular cross-street. We'll give you the street
name before the intersection, the cross street where it changes,
and some other information. You tell us the street name after
the intersection.
For example, if we said that going west, Carlton St. ends at
Yonge, and the street it becomes continues to Dundas, you'd answer
College St. -- or just say College, because in all cases we just
need the basic name of the street. You don't need to say whether
it's called a street, a road, or whatever, and you also don't need
to say "East" or "West". In the questions, we're going to speak
of them all as "streets" no matter how they are named.
Sometimes there'll be a slight swerve or jog where the new street
begins -- never mind that.
1. Going south, Christie St. ends at Bloor; the street it becomes
continues south to Dundas, ending near Trinity Bellwoods Park.
2. Going south, St. George St. ends at College. Cross College
and you're on this street, which continues south to Queen.
3. Going west, Hoskin Av. starts at Queen's Park Crescent and ends
shortly thereafter at St. George. Then it becomes this street,
which continues west to Ossington.
4. Going west, Eastwood Rd. ends at Coxwell; the street across
Coxwell continues all the way to University Av., its directional
suffix changing from "East" to "West" when it crosses Yonge.
Hint: this one is a little bit of a trick question.
5. Going southwest, Kingston Rd. ends at Queen St.; the street it
becomes turns west, mostly, and ends at Front near Parliament.
6. In the Annex, going north, Robert St. ends at Bloor; the street
it becomes continues a mere 4 blocks to Dupont St., with a jog
where it crosses Kendal Av.
7. Going east, or southeast, Davenport Rd. ends at Yonge; the new
street turns south and continues to a little past the Esplanade.
8. Going north, Tecumseth St. ends at Queen West; the street it
becomes continues north, weirdly changing from an "avenue" to a
"boulevard", back to an "avenue", then to a "square", and finally
back to an "avenue" again before ending a little past Dupont.
9. Going east, Irwin Av. ends at Yonge, close to a couple of our
trivia pubs; the new street continues east to Jarvis.
10. Going north, Parkside Dr. ends at Bloor; the street it becomes
continues north to St. Clair, and then after a gap, continues
north again.

the IMDB.)

by Dashiell Hammett; the line alludes to William Shakespeare's
"The Tempest".)

> "Napalm, boy. Nothing else in the world smells like that."
> Give the sentence that continues the last line.
"I *love* the smell of *napalm in the morning*." 4 for Gareth,
Joshua, Pete, Dan Blum, Jason, Calvin, Marc, and Bruce.
(Robert Duvall as Bill Kilgore and Sam Bottoms as Lance Johnson in
"Apocalypse Now"; screenplay by John Milius and Francis Ford Coppola.
Kilgore goes on to say how it smells like victory, but that's not
the next sentence.)

> entitled to them." -- "You want answers?" -- "I want the truth!"
> Give the reply to the last line.
"*You can't handle the truth!*" 4 for everyone -- Gareth, Joshua,
Stephen, Pete, Dan Blum, Dan Tilque, Björn, Jason, Calvin, Marc,
and Bruce.
(Tom Cruise as Daniel Kaffee and Jack Nicholson as Nathan Jessup in
"A Few Good Men"; by Aaron Sorkin, based on his own play.)

"I'm going to make him an *offer he can't refuse*." 4 for Gareth,
Joshua, Stephen, Pete, Calvin, and Marc.
(Al Martino as Johnny Fontane and Marlon Brando as Don Corleone in

indicated phrases were required.) 4 for Gareth, Joshua, Pete, Jason,
Calvin, Marc, Bruce, Stephen, and Dan Blum.
(Peter Finch as Howard Beale in "Network"; by Paddy Chayefsky.
His listeners do start yelling the line from their windows, but they
improve the wording slightly, dropping the first "as" and sometimes
changing "this" to "it" -- a very nice writing touch.)
> 10. 1967: "Virgil. Funny name for a nigger boy from Philadelphia.
> What do they call you up there?" Give the reply.
"They call me *MR. TIBBS!*" 4 for Gareth, Joshua, Stephen, Pete,

Grace St. 4 for Stephen.

Beverley St.

Gerrard St. 4 for Stephen.
(Gerrard actually starts east of Victoria Park Rd., runs west
to Coxwell, and then jogs sideways a full block to the south,
*re*starting across from Eastwood.)

Eastern Av.

Keele St. 4 for Stephen.
