Very good quiz - isn't the "Cheeseburger in Paradise" Jimmy's last name spelled Buffett?

Cool to see James Fenimore Cooper show up on a quiz...he's an ancestor of my step-dad's family. When I saw the title of the quiz, I wondered if he would make the list.

Is it just me or has anybody else noticed that about half of the quizzes on this site have a picture of James Dean as the featured picture?

I never would have guessed Franco because of that part of the clue, even if I knew who hosts the Oscars year after year.

Yeah, I was super confused too. After looking it up, I think the clue is actually a reference to Franco starring in the 2001 James Dean biopic.
