A guy at my company had some free film festival tickets to give away this morning and decided to make them a prize to a movie trivia contest. the contest is over, but I thought it would be fun for the Catbox readers. Do you know the answers??
1. Name the film that won best picture at last year’s Academy Awards (the most recent Awards show), and name two stars from that film.
2. The film “Steel Magnolias” featured a rather unusual wedding that included an even more unusual cake. What was unusual about the cake, and what color was the cake (both the icing and the cake itself)?
3. I asked this question once upon a time in one of our old newsletters, but I like it so much I’m going to ask it again. In “Back to the Future,” the mall where Marty McFly and Doc Brown meet to test the DeLorean has different names at the beginning and end of the film. What is the name of the mall at the beginning of the film, what does it change to, and why does it change?

OK so I can't answer 1 and 3, but I know 2 like the back of my hand. The grooms cake is "red velvet cake shaped like a giant armidillo. People are going to be hacking into this poor animal, and it looks like it's bleeding to death!"
I forgot to mention that the cake has grey icing. In case you were wondering, Sally Field doesn't know how you go about making grey icing!
1) Is it Brokeback Mountain? I could IMDB it but I am not a cheater--no matter what my family says. So wait--I did just IMDB it and I was wrong-dead wrong. I think the picture that did win was the most overrated thing in the history of the universe.
2) Of course it is Steel Magnolias. Which reminds me--I need a recipe that freezes beautifully. Any suggestions?
Red velvet cake actually does freeze beautifully -- and it's delicious. I'll see about getting a recipe for you. (I didn't know it really existed until I moved down south but I am a serious fan.)
Is IMDB cheating? I hope not because otherwise KTC totally won on the Peter Scolari thing. I'm a hopeless A-list trivia person -- I rely on IMDB to even make a showing.
Abby, IMDB-ing is never cheating. IMDB and Wikipedia along with The Text (aka US Weekly) make up the trifecta of world information. If it's not found in one of those 3 sources you don't need to know it.
