Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This 2002 movie remake, starring Madonna, washed up with five awards. Which movie is it?

Answer: Swept Away

Awards? Yes, this movie won five Razzie awards including Worst Actress (Madonna), Worst Director (Guy Ritchie), and Worst Picture. I had heard of this movie, and tried to avoid it, but I came face to face with it on cable the other day. After a minute of watching, I had to change the channel, and there hadn't even been any dialog.

2. What 1988 martial arts movie was filmed in Malta? This was an early Jean-Claude Van Damme movie.

Answer: Black Eagle

I only recorded this movie from TV to see the scenery. I spent a lot of time fast forwarding.

3. This 1983 comedy-mystery stars Margot Kidder and Robert Hays. What's the name of it?

Answer: Trenchcoat

Unlike a lot of movies filmed in Malta, this one actually takes place in Malta. Kidder plays an aspiring mystery writer on vacation in Malta. She somehow ends up involved in a mystery herself. The hotel she stays at in the movie is actually the Verdala Palace, used as a summer residence by the Maltese president.

The story is not that great, but the movie showcases many places in Malta very nicely.

4. This 1980 movie is about an attempt to surface a famous shipwreck. Jason Robards stars. Which movie is it?

Answer: Raise The Titanic

"Raise The Titanic" also stars Richard Jordan and Alec Guiness. It is about a rare mineral on board the Titanic wreckage that can be used to power a laser. The Russians and the Americans both want it and will try to raise the ship to get it. Right. Proud owner of three Razzie Awards, including Worst Picture.

5. This 1980 movie has Robin Williams playing a sailorman. What movie is it?

Answer: Popeye

"Pilgrim Popeye", "Popalong Popeye" and "Popeye And The Pirates" are all animated shorts. The "Sweethaven" set built for the movie was left in place and is a popular tourist attraction, Popeye Village.

6. This film is about a whale who wants revenge on Richard Harris? Do you know which movie it is?

Answer: Orca

This is a hard-to-believe plot. A pregnant whale is killed, and its mate seeks revenge against the hunter that did it. Even the whale had a few words with its agent after this one.

7. What movie stars Geena Davis in a swashbuckler directed by then-husband Renny Harlin?

Answer: Cutthroat Island

I couldn't stop myself. I'd heard about it, but I had to see it because of where it was filmed. Once again, the fast forward button was abused. I just couldn't get into the weak story, or the silly dialog. This movie earned just one Razzie nomination.

8. This movie is about Christopher Columbus trying to get backing to discover a better passage to the Indies. Tom Selleck plays King Ferdinand. Which movie is it?

Answer: Christopher Columbus: The Discovery

Brando as Turkeymada, er Torquemada, Selleck as the King, and Rachel Ward as Queen Isabella. Even future Oscar winners Catherine Zeta-Jones and Benicio Del Toro in the cast couldn't save this 1992 movie. It was nominated for six Razzie Awards, and won one for Worst Supporting Actor, Tom Selleck.

9. This justice movie stars Joe Don Baker as Sheriff Thomas Jefferson Geronimo, who has to escort a prisoner to Europe. Which is it?

Answer: Final Justice

I think the final justice of this movie is when it's over.

10. Underwater deep-ocean miners find a Soviet wreck and bring it back to their base. Something they bring back hunts down each one of them. What 1989 movie is this?

Answer: Leviathan

Released in 1989, "Leviathan" stars Peter Weller, Richard Crenna and Amanda Pays. Sorry, but I greatly prefer "The Abyss".
