I wracked my brain this week, but I couldn’t come up with a trivia theme. Nothing seemed to click, so I am employing the traditional last resort for the thematically challenged – Wild Card!
1. This actor has appeared in more James Bond films than anyone else involved with the franchise.
2. Speaking of Bond – What children’s book, later made into a movie, was written by Ian Fleming?
3. What is the significance of FACE in the musical world?
4. Who is a “Super teen extraordinaire [who] runs around in underwear?”
5. What was VH1’s pick for Number 1 in their “100 Greatest Songs of the 90’s”?
6. What is “a stable emulsion of oil, egg yolk and either vinegar or lemon juice, with many options for embellishment with other herbs and spices” according to Wikipedia?
7. What does a Robertson screw head look like?
8. Which soda pop has the most caffeine?
9. What movie, when put through Babelfish a few times, becomes “Week of the Ring: Returning of the Wages”
10. And on that note – Who wrote “Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.”

The couple of answers I knew were already covered, but here are my guesses for #9:
The Matrix: Revolutions
Bride Wars
Jackass: The Movie
I am never challenging you to a game of Trivial Pursuit.
Wow–hard questions!
1. I HOPE it’s Sean Connery
6. Mayonnaise
8. I agree with Mountain Dew
Can’t wait to see the answers!
1. Bernard Lee
3. The notes on the spaces of the treble clef.
6. Salad dressing – usually Italian.
7. It’s the one with a + sign on top.
8. Mountain Dew
I call shenanigans on 4! I believe you speak of Freakazoid, be he is in fact a super dude extraordinaire. I hear he also drives the villains crazy, ’cause he’s a lunatic.
The only other one I actually know is 3, which is the between-line notes on the treble clef. I’m sure there are more official terms for it but I quit piano lessons when I was 11 or 12 or something (today I really wish I hadn’t.)
I respectfully disagree about Freakazoid. I double checked and all the sites I found say “teen”

And I don’t know any better way to say the in between notes either, I’ll probably google it so I can sound all smart and junk when I post answers :)
That’s so weird, I hear it as “dude” every time. It’s like the “What is love, lady/baby don’t hurt me,” argument I used to have in high school all over again!
(I still swear it’s lady. Maybe I need to get my ears checked someday.)
That happens to me sometimes. I hear something one way and even when I find out it’s something different it stays stuck the way I first heard it. It’s the whole “‘scuse me while I kiss this guy” phenomenon
i think it would be unfair if i play but great list!!!
