I never watched this movie but I got it right. I did know JM won the Super bowl in 1982. The joys of being an 80's teenager.

Screenwriter not Director that’s what tripped me up

I had forgot that Oliver Stone was part of that movie. I don’t think he was well known just yet.

I always wondered why THAT name for the character since this was technically a redo of the original classic. Interesting.

@Robertv1984 3 місяці тому

The DVD commentary of the film gave me the clue. Oliver was kicking a popular 80s habit of excess at the time.

Joe Montana popped into my head, but i couldn't figure out the movie. I didn't think about the screenwriter bit since Stone is best known as a director.

Tony Montana from Scarface

"Scarface" was directed by Brian DePalma.

@chrisjett6232 3 місяці тому

Didn't remember Oliver Stone did Scarface, but was able to make the Joe Montana-Tony Montana connection

@djtforever1414 3 місяці тому

Yeah, i got it. I know nothing about American football - but i knew the filmography of the writer.

@tomwigal8856 3 місяці тому

They're talking about the 8182 football season which ended in 82 with the Super Bowl and I knew who the quarterback was I just didn't think about the name of the movie

@BobSullivanAKABuffy 3 місяці тому

Never knew Stone was the screenwriter for that but I had the right name in mind. Knew it was too early for Platoon. Also thought it was before he started directing.

@KJ-of6lf 3 місяці тому

Guessed Platoon but knew it was later in the decade (and incorrect). Always forget about Scarface.

@JayTemple 3 місяці тому

I wouldn't have known this if I hadn't just recently watched the movie for the first time.

@zkosn 3 місяці тому

This seems like a boomer movie, as someone in the older portion of Gen X. (Who was a pre teen when this movie came out. Never saw it.). At least I was guessing it was related to Joe Montana, but his last name was still eluding me. Joe, face, SF all in my head but couldn't quite pull out Montana.

@GSPonsonby 3 місяці тому

I hit on the correct answer before time was up (by thinking about QBs, not movie characters), but if I was on the show I don’t know that I could have written down in time.

I had no chance on this one. Don’t watch movies or football. I remember Lloyd. He may go far.

@NomadicBrian 3 місяці тому

I was wrong. I thought 'Born on the 4th of July'. The Superbowl that I remember most was the Eagles vs Raiders and I didn't remember who won. Thinking the Eagles I thought Ron Jaworski and Ron the first name of the charter in this film. I was one year off as this Superbowl was 1981. Just by coincidence it worked but for the wrong film. I forgot about 'Scarface' with Pacino.

@hsupower 3 місяці тому

I went the other way. I was thinking about the Super Bowl that tied to the 1982 season, which would have been Super Bowl XVII. I could not think of a movie that tied to Joe Theismann. That was a misread of the clue.

I was stuck in Stone’s later ‘80s work, but I knew it wasn’t it, until it hit me what he wrote and didn’t direct earlier in the decade. Say hello, to my little friend!

@OconByrd519 3 місяці тому

It pays to be an NFL fan, this was as absolute easy final for me. Turns out Stone is a 49ers fan!

@pjabrony8280 3 місяці тому

Not for me, because I was thinking of the season 1982, so I was trying to think of characters named Theismann.

I love Jeopardy, even if you don't know the name Oliver Stone you can still get the answer by thinking it out. I parsed "list of old school football stars" in my brain against "1980s movies". I got there just as the time was running out.

Ahh, when we hear Stone, we think director, we forget about his screenwriting masterpiece Scarface. In honor of Tony, may I quote, "Say hello to my little friend."

@matthewschwartz6607 3 місяці тому

Yeah, I got this right away when I heard 1983 Oliver Stone SCREENWRITER! That was one of his first screenplays. Platoon was directed by him , 1986.

@andrewklang809 3 місяці тому

I guessed the namesake, but i didn't know Stone wrote that movie. Platoon is his famous directorial debut, but guy had already written Midnight Express, Scarface and did a pass on Conan the Barbarian. I didn't realize he had started that early.

@shunlvswx 3 місяці тому

How did they not know that. Scarface was the only movie that popped into my head because I had no idea what other movie came out in 1983. I forgot about the Return of The Jedi, but I knew that wasn’t the answer. I did second guess myself at first because I was like what character was named after an QB. I didn’t know about that story that Tony Montana was named after Joe Montana. Platoon was like 3 years later.

@lynnhawkins952 3 місяці тому

My husband immediately said "Tony Montana". I asked what movie that was. My husband said "You talking to me?" I said "Scarface! Al Pacino!" My husband said "No that's Taxi Driver." I said "No! Wrong Al Pacino movie!" Long story short...Not my genre.
