FALL LEAGUE Trivia 11.30

FALL LEAGUE Trivia 11.30

2 week Furlough

1. So I started watching Dragon Ball super again which is basically a new reboot of everything I ever dreamed about in HD. A lot of it is in space – name me the 4 dimensions associated with the loose term of space.

Height, Depth, Width, and time

Highway Star - Deep Purple

2. So over this two week furlough I celebrated my 24th and least favorite birthday because I’m old. So if we do math that means I was born in 1992. According to the Chinese calendar what year was 1992?

Monkey

Fluorescent Adolescent - Arctic Monkeys

3. So everyone loves the Charlie Brown tv specials – obviously. What year did the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special first air?

1973

1973 - James Blunt

4. One of my favorite things to do is to use Thanksgiving as a preparatory day for the transition to Christmas music. To do this I listen to the music from the Nutcracker which is beautiful. I’ve never seen the ballet – but who composed the music for it?

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

Ski Mask Way - 50 Cent

Bonus Round: I can’t start a round about DragonBall and then go the whole round without asking a question related to that. So here’s your chance to impress me. Name me 5 characters who fought Majin Buu 1 on 1.

1. Goku - Who are You by the Who

2. Vegeta -

3. Gohan - Hand Clap by Fitz and the Tantrums

4. Gotenks

5. Good Buu - Boots of Spanish Leather by the Lumineers

6. Supreme Kai - Skyfall by Adele

7. Vegito - Go Flex  by Post Malone

Gilmore Girls

Truthfully, the only time I’ve watched this show was when it came on after Boy Meets World ended and I didn’t change the channel. So bear with me here. Also this is not about the most recent reboot, but is in honor of it.

1. What fictional town in Connecticut does the show take place in?

Stars Hollow

Starships - Nicki Minaj

2. What network did the television show originally air on? It has since changed its name but it’s a fairly iconic channel – I used to watch Saturday morning cartoons on it.

The WB

Imma Be - Black Eyed Peas

3. So everyone knows the two main characters, Lorelai and Rory – but what is Rory’s real name?

Lorelai

Love the Way you Lie - Eminem

4. So not that I know anything of what I’m asking, but I know that Rory used to be always dressed in her school’s uniform or whatever. What University does Rory go on to attend?

Yale University

Failing, Flailing - Streetlight Manifesto  

Bonus question: There are 7 people who appeared in all 154 episodes of the original show. Name me 5.

1. Lorelai (Lauren Graham) - Lorelai by Fleet Foxes

2. Rory (Alexis Bledel) - Roar by KAty Perry

3. Lane Kim (Keiko Agena) - Lane Boy by Twenty-one Pilots

5. Michael Gerard (Yanic Truesdale) - P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) by Michael Jackson

6. Emily Gilmore (Kelly Bishop)

7. Richard Gilmore (Edward Herrmann)  

Game of Wrongs

1. Avery made a joke and inspired this round. So I just recently played Risk and actually managed to win. In what country – ironically enough –  did the game Risk originate from?

France

Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy  

2. So I know nothing about Game of Thrones, but one of the creators joked that its tagline should be “the Sopranos in Middle Earth.” Name me one of the creators of the series?

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss

You’re Gunna Go Far Kid - The Offspring

3. So Martin, the author of the book series, actually used a lot of historical examples as mirrors for his own plot. Name me the two houses who fought the Wars of the Roses in England that provided the basis for the houses of Lannister and Stark.

Lancaster and York

Castaway - Zac Brown Band  

4. Name the me actor who portrays Lord Eddard “Ned” Stark, Boromir, and is also responsible for attempting to steal the declaration of Independence.

Sean Bean

Temperature - Sean Paul

Bonus: The actor mentioned in the last question was essentially the voice of everyone in every Elder Scrolls game ever – especially oblivion. Name me 5 games that are a part of the series – expansion packs don’t count.

1. Arena - Arena by Daft Punk

2. Daggerfall - Fall in Love - Phantogram

3. Battlespire

4. ES Adventure: Redguard

3. Morrowind - September - Earth, Wind & Fire

4. Oblivion - Oblivion by Bastille

5. Syrim - Skyrim Theme

6. ESO

Lorde of the Rings

1. So the beauty of this round is that I spelt Lord, as Lorde, like the artist. What is her real name?

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor

Let it Snow! - Ella Fitzgerald  

2. So I could ask tons of questions about LotR and just be all cool n stuff and show off, but I’ll try and take it easy on y’all and throw in some movie questions too. For instance, what is the name of the actor who broke his foot after kicking a helmet in The Two Towers? The movie features a scream that follows suit that was supposed to be frustration of not finding the two hobbits but was also from pain.

Viggo Mortensen

Mortal Kombat High SChool - Starbomb

3. Back to Lorde real quick. She’s the youngest person to “achieve a US number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 since 1987” for her song Royals. What is the name of her first studio album that this single is featured on?

Pure Heroine

Heo/Heroine - Boys like Girls  

4. Speaking of young people, elves are immortal and don’t die in Lord of the Rings. Speaking of Rings, Celebrimbor crafted 3 rings of power. Two of these rings were worn by various elves, but one of them was eventually given to Gandalf. Who is the elf that gave Gandalf Narya, or the Ring of Fire?

Cirdan

Seer - Witch  

Bonus Round: This one’s a bit more difficult. The Palantir were seeing stones used by the elves and elf friends to communicate across the lands. Name me 5 locations that either formerly had Palantir or possessed them during the movies.

1. Elostirion (Elendil’s stone) - Naked as we Came by Iron and Wine

2. Amon Sul (Weathertop) - A Month of Sunshine

3. Annuminas

4. Osgiliath - Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne

5. Minis Ithil (Minas Morgul/Barad-dur) - With You by Drake

6. Orthanc - Thank you by Dido

7. Minas Anor (Anarion)

8. Avallone (Tol Eressa)

Picture Question: So tonight features a round about LotR, obviously, so naturally your task is to draw me a meme featuring Boromir from the Fellowship of the Ring. For those who don’t know this meme, please see me and I’ll provide examples, but you should feature the phrase, “one does not simply” and then go from there.
