This is Round Twenty-four of the Neverending Movie Chain. Feel free to jump in anywhere you want, post once or post as often as you want just don't reply to yourself. huh

For any new folks joining in <and new folks are definitely encouraged to do so>...

We start by naming a movie, the next player to jump in has to name an actor in that film and the next to follow him/her has to name a different movie that actor was in.

EX:

Player one: Star Wars, Player Two: Mark Hamil, Player Three: Corvette Summer, Player Four: Annie Potts, Player Five: Ghostbusters, etc., etc.

Repeats are allowed but discouraged and there has to be a distance of at least five steps before you use a movie or an an actor a second time. No IMDb please <expect to look up dates of movies with identical titles or spellings of names>. grin

You need to follow the chain as it is drawn, no jumping. If we have Stephen Moyer on the table and someone plays Prince Valiant then the Prince Valiant you have to go out of is the one that had Stephen Moyer in it, no matter how many other movies out there are named Prince Valiant.

A clarification on play. We want to avoid using archival footage. For purposes of our game Dick Clark, Bob Hope, President Kennedy etc. Did not appear in Forrest Gump.

I won't make this a rule but rather a recommendation. Please avoid films that have not been released/aired in the U.S.

And just for the sake of putting it into the written rules mostly for sake of newcomers voice work (animated films) and made-for-TV movies are allowed but not mini-series.

Oh, and the idea is not to stump everyone but to keep the chain going for as long as possible. We play this one on road trips and I don't know why I didn't think to start this up here years ago. It is perfect for the online community because you can jump in whenever and wherever or as often as you want.

Also feel free to add comments about the movies or actors mentioned if you like. Part of the fun is saying “Wow, I haven't thought about that movie for years.” or “I love Errol Flynn!”

We will make our goal for Chain24 to exceed the length of Chain18 which lasted for a mind blowing 1440 steps and/or to make it to the one year mark, which Chain18 fell just short of. The previous to Chain 18 the record was held by Chain7 which had an up to then record breaking 772 steps in it.

Chain16 had 758 steps. Chain3 557 steps. Chain23 445 steps. Chain 22 345 steps. Chain1 had 215 steps, Chain8 201 steps, Chain12 173, Chain20 165, Chain11 163, Chain 17 120, Chain9 118, Chain5 had 111 steps, Chain2 108, Chain10 106, Chain15 103, Chain6 98, Chain21 62, Chain13 23, Chain4 10, Chain14 4, and Chain 19 a record breaking 2 steps.
