I'd say it's probably more a mixture of random trivia knowledge and really good skills at narrowing it down. I wasn't sure about the last 4 questions, but was able to make educated guesses on them and got a 9/10. Not that I'm an expert, this was a lucky one for me!
Today I got 8/10 but that's very rare for me. I'm pretty young and still learning a lot! I wasn't even alive for 1989. I usually get around 6, I think 6 point something was my 2024 average. But I like to take these daily quizzes and look up what I got wrong so I am always learning!
I'm not sure where the quiztaker is getting that, because I got 8/10 today and it says I beat 72% of takers. Even with differences in time limits, I don't know if anyone with 8/10 could drop to 44%. So either this taker took it very early when the stats had yet to solidify or they went really slow.
The Revenant is the film Leo DiCaprio won his Oscar for, it does have a bear in it but it's not anthropomorphic.
The Golden Compass was a rubbish 2007 adaptation of a good Philip Pullman fantasy trilogy (that has talking polar bears in it) called His Dark Materials.
I don't think The Golden Compass covered the entire trilogy, just the first, maybe 1 1/2 parts. It was supposed to have a sequel for the remaining story, which never happened due to the first film underperforming. It was later made into a series (as "His Dark Materials"), which covered all three parts.
1. They know their stuff
2. They are cheating
3. Clicking at random and somehow got all correct
4. A combination of 1 and 3
I think I get around 6 as well on average, though I oftentimes try to get more than that.
Looking up the answers after the quiz is a pretty nice idea :)
As of now, my score of 7,850 is in the 63rd percentile
I think we all did lol

This being said, I had to make a bunch of educated guesses and deductions on some of the other questions
