12. In what year was "Commando" released at the cinema? (USA Release)

From Quiz Commando

Answer: 1985

To give you an idea of what films were being made in 1985, here is a run down of the Oscars in that period; In 1985 "Out of Africa" by Sydney Pollack won the Oscar for Best Picture, and William Hurt won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role in "Kiss Of The Spider". In 1986 "Platoon" by Arnold Kopelson won the Oscar for Best Picture and Paul Newman won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role in "The Colour Of Money". How the Academy overlooked this film is beyond words, you would have at least thought that Vernon Wells would have got the Best Supporting Actor gong for his excellent portayal of the sadistic baddie Bennett! Somehow Wells was beaten (not even nominated) in this category by either Michael Caine for his role in "Hannah And Her Sisters" (1986) or Don Ameche for his role in "Cocoon" (1985). That's right "Cocoon" won an Oscar!

15. Who plays the part of John Matrix's sadistic enemy, Bennett?

From Quiz Commando

Answer: Vernon Wells

Vernon Wells' character Bennett, is arguably the campiest movie baddy in the history of film; sadly Vernon had not featured in any other big action movies by 2002. Vernon also starred in "Weird Science" (1985) and "Mad Max: The Road Warrior".

The bad guy sure was dead tired, he was taking the eternal sleep.

28. Whilst reading an article about Boy George in Chenny's magazine, Matrix gets all nostalgic about his childhood in East Germany, and comments that the "Communists said that Rock and Roll was..." what?

From Quiz Commando
