Only For Those Who Love The Classics,
I am a huge movie buff. I own over 2,000 films, from every decade and every genre. Because of this, I think I know quite a bit about movies. I also love Trivial Pursuit, so putting these two things together should be great, right? Since it was made in 1983, many more recent films are missing. This makes the game very difficult to those who are not familiar with older movies. And when I say older I mean 1930-1980, not something that was released 10 years ago. The game was enjoyable to an extent, but was not as fun as I was hoping, mainly because it lacked movie specific questions and focused more on the actors and behind the scenes stuff. Finding this type of information is quite difficult when it comes to older films. I would only recommend this if you love and are very familiar with the classics.

It Will Kick Your Butt,
I love trivia and I love movies, especially old movies, so I thought this would be a cakewalk. But this trivia is hard. I mean HARD. Like, “What are the names of Rocky Balboa’s two pet turtles?” Excuse me? Rocky had pet turtles? Other questions I knew the answer to, but they stumped my coplayers, such as “How many eggs did Paul Newman’s character eat in the film Cool Hand Luke?” And those were for movies we’ve actually seen. If I hadn’t seen it, forget it.
Usually when I play Trivial Pursuit with my brother we finish the game within 90-120 minutes, depending on if we’re simultaneously watching tv. But this, this we played for 45 minutes before either of us got a piece of pie. After 75 minutes we called it quits.
Don’t get me wrong: in some ways this edition is really fun. But I can’t get most of my friends to play the regular game with me, and I knew there was no point in even trying to play this with them.
If you’re looking for a true movie challenge, this game would be great. But for the casual movie or trivia fan, I suggest you pass.
