Name a film I have in my top 20 year-to-date (2016). (you might wanna check out the Buzzjack Rotten Tomatoes thread) 07. A singer who has starred in a movie and released an album, this side of the decade (sometime during and after 2010) 08. A horror film "based on true events". 09.

Name an actor or actress who has died in 2016 (must have starred in at least 2 full length feature films) ANTON YELCHIN POINTLESS Jonjo FAN HO POINTLESS Regina FRANK KELLY POINTLESS Jade GEORGE GAYNES POINTLESS richie RAJESH VIVEK POINTLESS princess_lotti FRANK FINLAY POINTLESS HarryEzra JIN YAQIN POINTLESS Josh. ANGELA PATTON POINTLESS Ultraviolence1989 ALAN RICKMAN POINTLESS J▲hq NANCY REAGAN POINTLESS Alex! KRISTINE MILLER POINTLESS Iz~ GIANNIS MIHALOPOULOS POINTLESS Chez Wombat DAVID BOWIE (1) Joe.; SamJudd Thought I'd give you quite a broad question to start with. All correct and pretty much everyone bags themselves a pointless, barring Joe. & SamJudd who tried to bluff and go for a musical actor. One of two main ones and no one opted for Prince, which surprised me. Recency won for me with Anton Yelchin ending up a pointless answer. Yay. His death still plays on my mind and has really struck with me </3 A lot of actors and actresses I'm not too aware of, but I've checked and they're all correct answers. Alan Rickman ended up being a pointless which was quite surprising!

HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS (PART 2) POINTLESS Josh. AVATAR (1) princess_lotti; Iz~ FURIOUS 7 (2) Jonjo; SamJudd; Alex! TITANIC (2) Joe.; HarryEzra; J▲hq STAR WARS: FORCE AWAKENS (2) Jade; richie; Chez Wombat CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR INCORRECT (14) Regina ALICE IN WONDERLAND INCORRECT (14) Ultraviolence1989 Hooray. Some points being added up now! Just one pointless answer that round, unsurprising really as it seemed like the most likely option to be pointless. The first, huge 3D film & the highest grossing film of all time, 'Avatar' gets 2 people guessing. Recent box office hit 'Furious 7' ties with the classic 'Titanic' & most recent BO smash 'Star Wars: Force Awakens' with 3 people each answering! Regina flopped though. 'Captain America: Civil War' is #12 and UV also nearly got away with it, but 'Alice In Wonderland' is in fact not top 10 #blamejosh! The other films available to be answers are 'Frozen', 'Jurassic World' & 3 more Marvel films: 'Iron Man 3', 'Avengers' & 'Avengers: Age Of Ultron'!

Name one of the deaths Ethan Hawke sees on video footage, from the first 'Sinister' movie. BBQ '79 POINTLESS Ultraviolence1989 SLEEPY TIME '98 POINTLESS Alex! FAMILY HANGING OUT '11 (1) Joe.; Chez Wombat POOL PARTY '66 (2) Regina; princess_lotti; SamJudd LAWN WORK '86 (5) Jonjo; Jade; HarryEzra; Josh.; J▲hq; Iz~ A MAN FALLING DOWN SOME STAIRS INCORRECT (14) richie Of COURSE I had to have a question referring to one of my favourite horror films in recent times. Ethan Hawke's character is writing a crime novel and finds a box in his new home, in the attic. Unbeknownst to him, they're snuff films! All varying shades of "HELL TO THE EFF NO!" However, the most prominent one for me is Lawn Work '86! Where the victims end up getting run over by a, yeah you guessed it, lawnmower. Proving the most popular answer here and providing us with our highest score yet! BBQ Time '79 & Sleepy Time '98 are the two pointless answers here. Everyone else scores points and richie gave an incorrect answer! Sorry!
