Trivia: I Just Want a Bit Part in Your Movie

By Dan on Dec 16, 2008 in Trivia

Okay, I’ve switched things up a bit. This time, I name a minor character from a movie, you tell me the name of the movie. These are all popular films that you’ve all probably seen. I also chose distinctive names. This should be fairly easy and I’m expected at least a couple of perfect scores, although there are a couple of potential stumpers.

 

To reiterate, your replies will be held in the moderation queue until everyone has had a chance to play, at which time they will all be posted. And don’t disgrace yourself by Googling. Good luck.

 

1. Fawn Leibowitz – ???

2. Jimmy Montrose – ???

3. Reilly Diefenbach – ???

4. Lili Von Schtupp – ???

5. Milton Waddams – ???

6. Lacey Underall – ???

7. Hardy Jens – ???

8. Edna Mode – ???

9. Mick Shrimpton – ???

10. Sal Tessio – ???

 

Bonus Question:

Who performed the song “Bit Part” from whence the title of this blog was taken?

Bonus to the Bonus Question:

Who accompanied the lead singer on vocals? (hint, she was an answer in a previous quiz and a BFS favorite on account of she’s really cute.)

    I know there was a song called Bit Part on the same Lemonheads CD that had Mrs. Robinson on it. Not a clue who sang backup though…Aimee Mann?

  2. i don’t really know any of those except for Young Frankenstein but I have It’s a Shame About Ray by the Lemonheads featuring Evan Dando as lead singer and I knew that Juliana Hatfield said/sang/yelled ‘I just want a bit part in your life’ or something. My memory might fail me.

    Bonus question: The Lemonheads
    Bonus bonus: I’m going to guess Aimee Mann, but it’s probably Juliana Hatfield.

    These are the answers I knew off the top of my head. I looked up the three I didn’t after mentally giving up. It’s been a long time since I’ve watched “Fargo.” I just plain forgot about Jimmy in “Sixteen Candles.” No. 7 might be your prime stumper, though. But I hate Eric Stoltz. So I’ve had no reason to watch that movie again.

    Good quiz.

  11. Ah, the Incredibles. I’ve seen it, but had no recollection of the name Edna Mode.

    I had no clue on the bonus questions. And I wasn’t certain about each of the answers. Some of those movies are my favorites. Great quiz, Dan!
