O.K., let's see how much of these I know (Maybe this should be moved to 'Fun and Games,' but anyway.) 1. C, 2. D (Just guessing, since he's the only one I don't know.), 3. A (Somebody mentioned that here just recently.), 4. Pass, 5. C, 6. B (Just guessing again.), 7. No clue, 8. D (Which I still have to wait about a month or two to hear SINCE I HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE FREAKIN' RITA MORENO EPISODE YET!!!! Thank you.) 9. B or was it C? (To quote Pete Puma, 'Uh, three or four?') 10. B (He's the only one on the list that I don't know how he sounds, I'm guessing a Professor would sound quite a lot like Sam. 11. B 12. D 13. A (I'm guessing it was just Miss Piggy.) 14. No clue

Matt, are you going to give the correct answers anytime soon? I'm really curious about a lot of these.

You might consider re-phrasing #6 to "solo directorial debut."

Well, you got part of this right. He DID NOT sing "One Small Voice." He sang "Monster in a Mirror."

The correct answer was "none-of-the-above." His directorial debut was "The Dark Crystal" alongside Jim Henson. But, by himself, you're correct.

B. Eren Ozker

The correct answer was Richard Hunt.

14. Frank Oz directed Steve Martin in which two films?

Frank did not direct "The Three Amigos". The correct response was C. "Little Shop of Horrors" and "Housesitter"

Well, I hope I didn't bash you too hard. Right about now, I probably sound like a know-it-all. Sorry.
