These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2019-07-22,
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 Unnatural Axxxe 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 2019-01-22 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
** Game 9, Round 9 - Canadiana Entertainment - Shot in Toronto
This round is about *our* Hollywood North, not the one claimed by
those usurpers in Vancouver in the last game. All of these movies
were shot at least partly in Toronto. In each case we give the
release date and describe the movie, and you name it.
1. 2002: An Oscar-winning American crime comedy-drama musical
starring Richard Gere and Catherine Zeta Jones.
2. 2007: A musical romantic comedy starring John Travolta, based
on a 2002 Broadway musical, which was based in turn on a 1988
John Waters movie.
3. 1999: Directed by Adam Rifkin, this movie tells the story of
four teenaged boys in a Kiss tribute band trying to see their
heroes play in Detroit.
4. 1987: This American romantic comedy directed by Norman Jewison
is about a widowed, 37-year-old, Italian-American woman who
falls in love with her fiance's estranged, hot-tempered younger
brother.
5. 2017: An Oscar-winning science-fiction romance written and
directed by Guillermo del Toro.
6. 2005: This family comedy movie starring Vin Diesel is the story
of a Navy SEAL looking for a secret project called GHOST while
acting as a nanny for 5 children.
7. 1984: This police movie starring Steve Guttenberg and Kim
Cattrall would spawn 6 sequels.
8. 2010: this movie, starring Michael Cera, was based on a series
of graphic novels by Bryan Lee O'Malley. It tells the story
of a slacker musician who must fight the seven evil exes of
his new girlfriend.
9. 1997: A drama starring Robin Williams and Matt Damon, which tells
the story of a South Boston janitor who is an unrecognized
genius.
10. 1988: this David Cronenberg psychological horror movie stars
Jeremy Irons as identical twin gynecologists.
** Game 9, Round 10 - Challenge Round - The Birthday Boys
Two of Axxxe's own, Jim and B.J., have birthdays this week --
July 24 and 26 respectively. So, here's a challenge round that
hinges, not on July 22, but on those dates.
* A. History on "This Date"
A1. This European country celebrates both Liberation Day on May 5
and Independence Day on July 26, the latter to commemorate
the rejection in 1581 of the rule of King Philip II.
Name that country.
A2. On 1865-07-26, Wellington was declared the capital of
New Zealand. What city was the previous capital?
* B. Mick Jagger (born 1943-07-26)
B1. In 1967, William Rees-Mogg, editor of the London "Times",
wrote an editorial titled "Who Breaks a Butterfly on
a Wheel?" The line is from Alexander Pope, but what was
the *subject* of the editorial?
B2. Please decode the rot13 only after you have finished with
the previous question. Guvf fvatre, gura Zvpx Wnttre'f

C1. Every year from 1987 until the store's demolition, Honest
Ed's had a Christmas season giveaway of 10,000 what?
C2. In 1993, Ed and his theatrically-minded son David opened
the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto's King St. theater
district. What mega-musical opened the joint?
* D. Baseball on "This Date"
D1. On 1983-07-24, a game-winning home run was wiped away in
what was known as "the pine tar incident". Name the player
who was accused of doctoring his bat.
D2. On 1992-07-26, this Hall of Fame pitcher set what is
considered an unbeatable record of 23 straight seasons
striking out more than 100 batters -- and he then extended
it to 24 seasons in 1993, for a new unbeatable record.
Name him.
* E. Disasters on "This Date"
E1. On 2013-07-24, a high-speed train in Europe approached an
80 km/h curve at 190 km/h, and the resulting derailment
killed 78 people. In which country did this disaster occur?
E2. On 2005-07-26, a natural disaster occurred in Mumbai,
eventually killing more than 5,000 people. What was it?
* F. Writers Born on "This Date"
F1. Born on 1900-07-24, she was an emblematic figure of the Jazz
Age. Her author husband publicly accused her of plagiarizing
her only novel, "Save Me the Waltz", from his own upcoming
book, "Tender is the Night". Name her -- first and last
name.
F2. This author, born on 1894-07-26, wrote more than 50 books.
One of them, "The Doors of Perception", inspired the name
of the band the Doors. Name him.

The same week as the original game, "Jeopardy!" had a category "On
this day: July 26". But, if you can imagine, they actually waited
until it *was* July 26 to show it -- incidentally on the last show
of the season. Anyway, their category had no overlap with our round.

Jagger's harsh 3-month sentence for drug possession. 3 for Joshua.
The drugs in question were a small quantity of stimulants which
did not require a prescription in Italy, where he'd bought them,
but did in England. The sentence was overturned on appeal.
