These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2015-05-25,
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 in a single followup to the newsgroup,
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 Five Guys Named Moe, 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 2015-08-18 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
* Game 5, Round 7 - Entertainment - Big Screen, Small Screen
We'll give you the names of two actors who have played the same
character, one on film, the other on TV. In all cases you name
the character. For example, if we said "Movie, Donald Sutherland;
TV, Alan Alda", then the answer would be Hawkeye Pierce.
1. Movie, Gary Oldman; TV, Ben McKenzie.
2. Movie, Mark Ruffalo; TV, Bill Bixby.
3. Movie, Robert Downey Jr.; TV, Jonny Lee Miller.
4. Movie, Armie Hammer; TV, Clayton Moore.
5. Movie, Gary Oldman; TV, Sir Alec Guinness.

* Game 5, Round 8 - Arts - Al Hirschfeld Caricatures
In a career that spanned more than 80 years, American caricaturist
Al Hirschfeld was renowned for capturing the essence of celebrities
with his linear calligraphic style. At one time the phrase "You
got Hirschfelded" meant you had officially made it. In this round,
we'll give you a picture number and you identify the subject.
There are 3 pages in the handout. I've sorted the questions in
picture order; there were 12 decoys, which you may identify if you
like for fun, but for no points.

I note that while my answer will presumably be considered incorrect (since
the Hulk was played by Lou Ferrigno on TV), "Bruce Banner" is also incorrect
since the TV character was named "David Banner." If I were scoring this I
would only count "Banner" or "Dr. Banner" as correct.

I hadn't heard of Armie Hammer before playing this round in
the original game. His real first name is Armand and he's the
great-grandson of the business tycoon of the same name. However,
the brand name Arm & Hammer is unrelated (except that Armand Hammer
eventually bought a portion of that company and tried to buy a
controlling interest).
