To Be Or Not To Be? Truth Or Dare? Ride Or Die? These aren’t questions in this week’s film quiz, but there are 30 others…
We’ve got three more rounds of film-related questions to finish your week OR start your weekend, depending on how you look at it. The word “Or” figures largely in Round 2 as well, where we’ve chopped the ends off of ten other movie titles like the now-playing Bad Boys: Ride Or Die (read Maria’s review here) and we hope you can complete them for us. And on either side of the “Or” round, it’s your usual mix of movie trivia.
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. OR do something else – the choice is yours!
