Well, I'm not sure how well this game is going to go, but I might as well try it. The rules are simple: The last person to post (and I will start off) will name two movie titles and/or actors that are somehow linked together. The next person then has to answer how those two are connected. Here's an example (as I'm sure my directions are confusing):

Last Post:
Live and Let Die - Casino Royale

Answer:
Live and Let Die - Roger Moore - Moonraker - Lois Chiles - Death on the Nile - David Niven - Casino Royale.


I hope that isn't too confusing. Then the person who answered must then come up with another one for someone else to answer. Also, the movies must be connected by actors, and not by genre, names, etc. The titles/actors do NOT have to be Bond related. If it goes too long before anybody answers a question, the 'question maker' may post a hint. Oh and try not to use IMDb. :)

The Pink Panther - Moonraker (Hint: Part of the example above can help.)

I thought there had to be a Bond connection...oh well.

Alright, then. Instead of Doctor No, any of the following movies would fit the linking: From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, The Hill, You Only Love Twice, and Diamonds Are Forever.

Instead of Lethal Weapon 4, The 1997 Thomas Crwon Affair would work equally well.

That is basically a Batman thing:

It goes like this: The Saint > Val Kilmer > Batman Forever > Michael Gough (Alfred) or Pat Hingle (Comissioner Gordon) > Batman & Robin > Arnold Schwarzenegger > Terminator

Now, tell me, how does one link....

"Gone With the Wind" and "Die Another Day" ?
