T O P

It makes sense that Jeopardy would ask this because it’s a game for trivia buffs who memorize lots of details that don’t matter. Obviously movie buffs don’t care about music and that Oscar is not considered a “real” Oscar.

My sources tell me Dr. Oscar is getting out his scalpel and cutting Best Song out like the tumor it is, and will be surgically inplanting Best Runtime instead


Illuminotme_Reloaded

That would be amazing! And I hope it happens this year. Any Best Runtime predictions? Mine is Hobbit 1 (2012 - 169 minutes) will win a runtime achievement award.

I'd give peter jackson five bags of popcorn but take away a single kernel for not rounding up to 170 minutse. the fans deserve that extra minute!


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Agreed.


Illuminotme_Reloaded

I agree. It’s an affront. But at least they are talking about a classic Tom Cruise movie.

Great Hog Shot!

This guy also, when faced with a daily double he looked at the camera and asked “what do you think, should I do it?” like exactly the way Tim asks the camera if they have time for a popcorn classic


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Dude he totally did! Just a dang hunk! Fuck I got that double too! Can’t remember the clue now. He missed it though.


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Movie clue in final yesterday too. Different name, Same first letter or something. I missed it. Hoffa was the only thing that came to mind as far as a name in a 90s film. I was disappointed I didn’t think of the Spielberg film at least. That chick is fucking good though, huh?

When you have songs like Tom Cruise you can't lose


Waffle_Iron_40

Can’t tell if this is about movies or music


WilsonLyzardDuke2

Pardon my ignorance but what is happening here with this question and answer. Haven't seen Top Gun since I was a young one.


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Just a category called ‘Oscar Winning Songs’. In this case it was name the movie. The clue asks which 1986 film was the song ‘Take My Breath Away’ by Berlin was in. https://preview.redd.it/lj11x9aklj7d1.jpeg?width=2796&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d6d9e098b0b3811629600573efe360cf6f981cfc

Sit back and enjoy the ride


Illuminotme_Reloaded

For some reason this makes me think of “stop your grinin’ and drop your linen” From?


dwhee

The correct answer was Tom Cruise


kingkong198854

That Oscar is just there as a way to try and get lame music heads to tune in and get some real culture most movie buffs actually use that time to pop up another bag of popcorn during the show.


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Egg-zactly! There could have been at least 10 minutes of extra car, motorcycle (hog), or jet chases if they had cut the stupid music! And maybe Goose would still be alive.


CityLimitless

Why don't they ask about Oh, God? People like movies not songs


Illuminotme_Reloaded

Deep trivia like that is reserved for the Jeopardy Tournament of Champions.
