CYF's Collaborations With John Woo

This was an easy choice for the first topic of my votes -- their movies are by far the best known of CYF's career, here in the west.

(And many thanks to Rick Mehta for helpfully testing this game online!)


The Game


Thirty Questions!

From which film are the following lines, scenes, characters, or props?. There are 25 real items, from ABT, ABT2, OAT, TK or HB, and 5 distractor items, from films either not directed by Woo or not starring CYF.
  1. If I didn't get the exact wording you remember on a quotation, it is not because I want you to put 'None of these', it's because either we have different subtitles or I misremembered.
  2. I don't *think any of the objects are duplicated across films. But if any are, the first person who points out the confusion to me will receive a 5 point bonus and my profuse thanks. ;)
  3. Don't assume that I divided the real questions equally among the five films. Don't assume that I didn't.
  4. Every correct choice on a real item is +1 point.
  5. Every distractor item you don't put "None of these" for is -1 point.
  6. Possible scores on this section thus range from -5 to 25, plus there are 5 points in textual bonus questions. So a maximum score for this game is 30.
