I'm whacked out of my gourd and this seemed like a larf ---
Connect a movie with a subject from the Billie Joel song "We Didn't Start The Fire"
history trivia, general pop culture trivia, and in some cases very advanced movie trivia all in one...
Yeah, this thread is so not going to fly...
You have to know the lyrics (if it makes it easier, here's a link - http://www.lyricsdomain.com/lyrics/5723/)
Okay, here I go.
"Einstein" - portrayed by film actor, Walter Matthau - IQ
"James Dead" - film actor, played in - REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE
"Brooklyn's got a winning team." - 1955, the year traveled to in - BACK TO THE FUTURE
Okay, maybe this idea crosses the line....
Man, I don't know why I posted this. I'm not going to be participating in this stupid thread anymore.

This has such a strong link to this thread I thought I had to post it...that and the fact I'm injured and bored on a Saturday night...
Anyway, the schmoe Speermint should take all this credit 'coz he wrote the thing. I just moved it from another post to this.
It is sad and kinda nerdy...but truly amazing.
