So my best friend Scott and i were having one of our usual round-a-bout conversations about [anything] (in this case, movies) and he said that the sequel to "A Night at the Museum" would probably end up just being called "A Night With Ben Stiller."
Intrigued by this nonsensicalness i said "You mean, like, a one night stand?"
and he starts making fun of ben stiller and with ben stiller we decide jerry stiller shows up and then owen wilson (becuz where-ever stiller is, wilson is not far behind) and then we started inviting more people based on who'd been in movies/shows with jerry or owen.
from that it turned into a game. It's kinda like Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon...but better.
we even have rules.
1.) You MUST start with Ben Stiller
2.) You must go to either Jerry or Owen Wilson as your first move.
3.) You must choose a movie or show either actor has been in. That "opens up" that movie
4.) From that movie you must choose 1 (and ONLY 1) actor or actress
5.) From that actor/actress you open up one (and ONLY 1) movie.
6.) Continue from there
7.) You may loop back to movies you have used before (at a later point in the game), but you may NOT choose the same actor more than once. (for example, if you use Chris Rock in Dogma at a later time you can open up Ben Affleck, come back to Dogma and choose Matt Damon to progress the game with.)
8.) you can't "take back" moves
9.) You lose if you come to a dead end (ie -- no actor to use or no movie to open up)
so if you're in a long car ride see how long you can go with your friends.
really fun and involving
