6 Degrees of Chris

Illinoisguy1 · 16 May 08 :: 18:10

Thought this may be kind of fun to play the Chris version of 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon.

Now I've never played that game, so I hope I'm doing this right.

1.Chris starred in Freddy vs. Jason with Lochlyn Munro who starred in
2. Camouflage with Leslie Nielsen who starred in
3. Forbidden Planet with Walter Pidgen, who starred in
4. Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea with Peter Lorre, who starred in
5. Casablanca with Humphrey Bogart, who starred in
6. Sabrina with Audrey Hepburn

Here's another one.

1. Chris starred in Alpha Dog with Justin Timberlake, who starred in
2. Southland Tales with Will Sasso, who starred in
3. Happy Gilmore with Christopher McDonald, who starred in
4. Thelma & Louise with Brad Pitt, who starred in
5. A River Runs Through It with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who starred in
6. Stop-Loss with Ryan Phillippe

The way it works is you toss out the name of someone who's never worked with Chris directly and we have to link that actor to Chris with 6 people or less. Then whoever gets it right --- WITHOUT THE HELP OF IMDb - THAT'S CHEATING! --- throws out the next name.

So let's get started. First up, Leonardo DiCaprio...

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 18:43

Six steps or less. The object is to do it in as few as possible. And Illinois did it the "Jeopardy" way. He gave the answer instead of the question.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 19:41

Oh, BTW, different people play by different rules. Some people allow movies only. And some people do not allow directors, even if they're also actors. So we would have to decide our rules too.

Here's how you can do Leo with movies only...

Leo - Catch Me If You Can - Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks - That Thing You Do - Tom Everett Scott
Tom Everett Scott - Race To Witch Mountain - Chris.

So what do we want the rules to be?

magicalturkey · 16 May 08 :: 19:45

Allow TV shows and movies, minor roles in TV shows/movies and directors?

Illinoisguy1 · 16 May 08 :: 19:54

Oh sorry, like I said I never played it ever.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 20:05

No worries, Illinois. And Laura, that's the way I like to play too. Does make things easier. Everyone else agree?

Donna · 16 May 08 :: 22:49

wow...without using Imdb. I don't think I am going to win many of these. I don't even know anything bette davis was in. I am so going to suck at this. Great idea though!

domesticelefant · 16 May 08 :: 22:57

I cannot do this without imdb!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 23:03

Using IMDb for the 6 degrees game is like using a calculator during a math test. OK guys, now we know who the cheaters will be.

Illinoisguy1 · 16 May 08 :: 23:03

Gee the only Bette Davis films I've ever seen is The Letter on laserdisc and What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? on tv many years ago.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 23:05

Bette Davis - Watcher In The Woods - Kyle Richards
Kyle Richards - ER - Scott Grimes
Scott Grimes - ER - Shawn Hatosy
Shawn Hatosy - Alpha Dog - Chris

Next: Jack Lemmon

WILL YOU PLEASE STOP DELETING YOUR POSTS, CAROL?!? :fedup:

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 May 08 :: 23:38

Oh, I just realized that Bette Davis can be done in one degree... :doh:

Bette - Return From Witch Mountain - Kim Richards
Kim Richards - Race To Witch Mountain - Chris

irina · 17 May 08 :: 01:22

wow, i watch lots of movies and still i find this very hard :doh:

TheCentralScrutinizer · 17 May 08 :: 01:34

OK, let's try someone younger. How 'bout Orlando Bloom?

justme · 17 May 08 :: 02:49

Elizabethtown with Kirsten Dunst
ER with Anthony Edwards
ER " ... Chris Marquette

No, I don't think so. And one good :fedup: deserves a

Younger, huh? How about Alia Shawkat?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 17 May 08 :: 03:18

Did Tony have any scenes with Chris in ER? I don't remember. If not, you need one more person in there who did. You still win this round. Here's how I got to Orlando...

Orlando - Pirates series - Johnny Depp
Johnny - Nightmare On Elm Street - Robert Englund
Robert Englund - Freddy Vs Jason - Chris

Yes, guys, you should know that it's really possible before you throw out the next name.

But Carol, why delete the Bette Davis post? Now no one knows why Illinois and I were talking about her.

I'll have to sit out this round. You've stumped me. I have no idea who that even person is. :embarrassed:

magicalturkey · 17 May 08 :: 03:28

I know her, I just saw her name on the end credits of a show I'm watching...

She was in an episode of Veronica Mars which starred Kristen Bell, who was in Fanboys with Chris.

Next up, Heath Ledger.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 17 May 08 :: 03:36

Now we're rolling.

Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight - Gary Oldman
Gary Oldman - Nobody's Baby - Mary Steenburgen/Skeet Ulrich
Mary/Skeet - JoA/Miracles - Chris

How 'bout Jonathan Murphy next? Bet you've already figured that one out.

magicalturkey · 17 May 08 :: 03:48

Kinda. And that's how I made a Heath connection

Jonathan in Broken Windows with Larisa Oleynik, who was in 10 Things I Hate About You with Heath Ledger, who was in Brokeback Mountain with Anna Faris, who was in Just Friends with Chris.

Oh and next up... Jennifer Garner.

Well, Jen was in 13 Going On 30 with Sean M. and the director also directed Chris and Sean in their very first movie, Sweet Nothing. Too easy. Next?

George Clooney?
