Answer: GoldenEye

"GoldenEye" was the first "James Bond" (the name we all knew) movie to star Pierce Brosnan as agent 007 (the number we all knew), and the producers were reassuring the public that Bond was still Bond; previously, Sean Connery and Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton and George Lazenby had played the superspy in the 17-film series.

"GoldenEye" starred Sean Bean as Trevelyan, a rogue double-0 agent seeking to destroy England's economy (typical Bond plot), and Famke Janssen as Xenia Onatopp (typical silly Bond Girl name), and featured satellite weapons (typical Bond technology)--yep, the producers did a fine job of keeping the legacy alive.

Answer: Hellboy

In "Hellboy", the title character was a demon, complete with horns, tail and red skin, who got pulled into our world accidentally when the Nazis attempted a horrific summoning in the final days of WWII.

Ron Perlman had a great time as the demon-gone-good.

Answer: Gremlins

If you got a mogwai (the cute little form of the gremlins) wet, it spawned more mogwai. If you exposed it to bright light, it melted and died horribly.

"Gremlins" made $150 million in release, after costing $11 million to make, meaning that it was a monster success.

This was a Jim Carrey movie. He played Charlie Baileygates, a Rhode Island state trooper who develops multiple personalities.
