Here's a little something I do from time to time to amuse myself. It's a sort of online version of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, and was first played when I realised that with my lunch between myself and the keyboard it's somewhat difficult to type. In situations where my delicious foodstuff of the day comes in a Polystyrene box (as the one I've just eaten did) and said box's lid opens onto the keyboard, it's impossible to type.
The rules: Pick a film, any film - although ideally it shouldn't be too recent. In my case, today's film was The Frighteners, which I watched again last night and will no doubt be writing about on these pages very soon. With a chosen film firmly in your mind, you must make your way from the front page of IMDB to your chosen film without using the keyboard. Your first step must be one of the films on the IMDB homepage too (no cheating and using the top 250 films list).
My route? A Scanner Darkly - Woody Harrelson - Anger Management - Marisa Tomei - Alfie - Jude Law - eXistenZ - David Cronenberg - A History of Violence - Viggo Mortensen - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King - Peter Jackson - The Frighteners. 13 steps: But there's almost certainly a more direct route that I've overlooked.
