Millionaire Questions...

[Craig Karlberg]

As far as the movie question goes, I'm thinking A although C sounds a bit too obvious with all the hype surrounding it in 2002.

Edging closer to 100 posts.

On the movie question, the top one is actually Spider-Man.

A is 9th alltime, B is 6th, C is 4th, and D is 5th.

However, C was not during this millenium -- Star Wars Episode I was released in 1999.

I figure the audience will divide between B and C.
Phone-a-friend, googling, can goof up and give C as the answer.
50:50 might help.

As a child, which of the following actresses was nicknamed the "Centennial Baby" when she was born in British Columbia on July 1, 1967, Canada's 100th birthday?

A: Halle Barry
B: Carmen Electra
C: Pamela Anderson
D: Alicia Silverstone



295 degrees on the Kelvin temperature scale is approximately equivalent to which of the following?

A: Paper's spark point
B: Water's boiling point
C: Ideal human body temperature
D: Ideal room temperature

[willmorris]

Okay, the temp one's a bit easy.  Any chemistry student could tell you it's D.

[Kevin Prather]

Yep.

It's a question that you might not know right away, but you can figure it out if you've got the smarts.

295 - 273 = 22 degrees Celsius
22 x 1.8 = about 40
40 + 32 = 72 degrees Farenheit.

 Perhaps a $16K level question on Meredith's Millionaire, maybe $64K on original Regis Millionaire(or $50K or $100K on the Super version)

Which future teen idol was seen for the first time on the same "Ed Sullivan Show" that the Beatles first appeared on?

A) Donny Osmond
B) Bobby Sherman
C) Davy Jones
D) Peter Noone


HINT: If you get the "Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show DVD", you'll see this person as part of one of the other acts. [/quote]
Or along those lines: what song did the Beatles first perform on the Ed Sullivan Show?

A. I Want to Hold Your Hand
B. All My Loving
C. She Loves You
D. I Saw Her Standing There [/quote]
 Pardon my recollection, but I believe that's been on the show at $64K (Regis era, methinks).

 And my question: Who cares?  The NBA is a rigged, overblown media hog, in which certain teams get prefential treatment from the referees and the press.

 Dude, you need to back off, like, lots.

While I more or less share your opinion of the NBA, the fact is that the very criticisms you throw at the league are the exact reasons why it's perfectly pertinent to be the subject of a Millionaire question...it's definitely in the public eye, even beyond that of the sports world.

Just be thankful that GSWitch went an entire post without making a gender reference.

 Ah...yeah it doesn't look even $250,000 worthy now that I think about it. Whoserman's assertion that All My Loving is a Wings tune was pretty funny, though (no offense).

Hmm....is there a $1,000,000 Beatles question, I wonder?

Which of the following songs *was* performed on tour by the Beatles?

A. In My Life
B. Eight Days a Week
C. Nowhere Man
D. Here, There and Everywhere
