Film Quiz Friday: Emotional Rollercoaster

As Inside Out 2 arrives in cinemas, this week’s film quiz shows off its emotional range with 30 movie-related questions.

---

Quiz subjects? We’ve got film quiz subjects coming out of our ears here at Film Stories Towers, and the next few weeks will bring questions about the X-Men franchise, screen exorcists, and the whole wide world of sports movies. And you can always tell the subject of the week is going to be a good’un when these intros are about upcoming rounds instead, but this week, we’ve got a round on films named after feelings and emotions. Feelings like Anxiety. Gulp.

There are three rounds altogether and once you’ve completed this week’s film quiz, you’ll find a link to a separate post with the correct answers at the bottom of this post. As always, this is all just for fun, but please let us know how you did in the comments (scores out of 30 this week!) and give us any other lovely feedback. I’m off to work on next week’s quiz…!
