Maybe they're like me and guessed some random names :) I got Paul and Thomas that way (scored 20 in total).

Paul Blart is pretty recent (and I think they made a sequel not like last year or something?), so that helps, I suppose. Still, I haven't seen either, but I know of Lawrence of Arabia from the sheer acclaim surrounding it (yes, I will see it some day. Paul Blart, probably not).

When was the last time you were flipping channels and happened onto Lawrence of Arabia? Were your kids clamoring to watch Lawrence of Arabia on Netflix? Do junior high schoolers find Peter O'Toole hysterical? For reasons that are self-evident, you clearly weren't the target demographic.

These comments that bristle at pop culture being popular are what's absurd.

Only one I missed was Good Luck Chuck. Never heard of it, but I tried Charles, Charly, and Charlie. So close.

There was a tv show called Good Luck Charlie and they did make a movie. Maybe it should be allowed as a type in.

Typed in every way I could think of to spell Micki for "Micki and Maude" (Dudley Moore movie).

I always try "Basil and Maude".....only to recall, when it doesn't work, that that is the name of a clothing line sold at Anthropologie. Sigh. I suppose that shows my priorities!

I did this too, until I recalled Harold and Maude, but I do think Micki needs to be added. Micki & Maude, from 1984, was not a horrible movie and was nominated for a few awards.

Surprised Michael Clayton is so low. Even if you don't know it, when it comes to guessing random names, this one shouldn't be too difficult.

Saving Private Ryan and Lawrence of Arabia bothered me a bit as the quiz instruction say, "These movies have first names in the title."

"Ryan" and "Lawrence" are first names; and "Ryan" and "Lawrence" are in the title; but they aren't first names in those titles. Considering that all the entries but these two are first names, and there are so many other possibilities to choose from, they just don't quite fit. Would you accept Breakfast at Tiffany's?

You could add a caveat to make it clear, but it might be a better improvement to just substitute a couple of other entries (lots of suggestions in the thread; or try Meet ___, Harold and ___ Go to White Castle, or ___ the Viking).

Would you accept Breakfast at Tiffany's?

Considering it's in the next quiz in this series... probably, yes. "They are first names" and "they are in the title" is literally all they mean when they say "first names in the title," regardless of the movie's actual content.
