I don't know a thing about it and from what I'm gathering here, sounds like another computer animated comic book movie with ridiculously unnatural levels of subwoofer applied.
Apparently it is a rule...along with Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings. It's so annoying. There are SO many movies and for some reason we have to be inundated with questions about these particular ones in nearly every quiz.
It's almost like the three things you listed are pillars of pop culture or something. Crazy how those would end up on a quiz site. Princess Bride is more of a cult classic, but in my opinion wittier and more engaging than most movies these days.
Harry potter, lords of the rings and stars wars make sense in my opinion, even if you haven't seen them. They are all over the place and often referenced (outside of quizsetting, and don't mean online either). The princess bride I indeed had never heard of before jetpunk, and might have only seen it here (though I have a vague memory of encountering it elsewhere atleast once)
Maybe a good frame of reference is, ask a 8 year old if they have heard of any of these, they will have heard of the first 3 but not the latter.
Maybe it is a regional thing too, because I think I can ask a million people ( at random, if you can pick them out, probably 99% of the country (17.5m) and noone will have heard of it. Even 90 year old grandmothers know the others.
Where are you from, because everyone I've ever been around when its mentioned, admittingly not as much as the other films previously mentioned in this thread, has at least heard of it.
It might be an age thing as much as location. I was a child (in NZ) when it came out and it was played at just about birthday party or sleepover for a year or so. I love it, therefore my children were subjected to it. But there’s probably a cohort between us who have never seen it!
"The war to end all wars" was in common use for World War I and contains "war" in its name. Could it please be acceptable for "Original name of World War One"?
throwing some random small town in england into the quiz, when there's millions of better more interesting things to ask about, is peak british behavior
Other questions were good though, exactly what I expected from the title.
