She's possessed by a dark witch (referred to as The Dark Witch).

On what planet did the new Doctor Who (starting with the Ninth Doctor) get his spiffy new Sonic Screwdriver?

vtmarik · Post by **vtmarik** » Fri Dec 07, 2007 8:43 pm

The answer is Villengard, referenced in The Doctor Dances when talking to Captain Jack Harkness about his sonic blaster.

New Question: How many versions of K-9 have their been in the entire history of the Doctor Who series (including series 2 of the revived Doctor Who)?

It would appear that no one around here except vtmarik watches Doctor Who. (I watched it on PBS many years ago, but I only got to see a few episodes.)

After almost a week, I'm gonna yoink this thread. The arcade video game based on this movie outgrossed the box office dollars. What flick was it?

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Fri Dec 14, 2007 12:20 pm

After discussing this with a coworker, I realized that I'd better throw in a conditional modifier to narrow it down: Both the movie and the arcade game were released in the same year.

(Mario Brothers, Mortal Kombat, and Street Fighter movies all did poorly in the box office - deservedly - but the movies were made years after the video games they were based on.)

Tron?

Edit: Wild guess.

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Fri Dec 14, 2007 4:55 pm

Nice WAG then, Syzygy. Totally correct.

LIGHT CYCLES FTW!!

Syzygy · Post by **Syzygy** » Fri Dec 14, 2007 5:06 pm

Yeay.

The movie Blade Runner had heavy influence on a certain song released by White Zombie.

What is the song?

Syzygy · Post by **Syzygy** » Sat Dec 15, 2007 2:19 pm

"More Human Than Human" was the answer.

Next question is up for grabs.

I know I didn't wait that long, but this could go stale otherwise.

Up for grabs? I'll take it!

What early comic book hero frequently spoke words like, "KREEGAH! BUNDOLO!" For bonus points, tell us what language he was speaking in!

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 12:42 pm

A full day with nary a guess? Hint time then! There have been at least three movies made about him (one of 'em was a Disney animated flick), two Saturday-morning cartoons, and a live-action TV show.

Tarzan?
Apeish?

kalishnikov · Post by **kalishnikov** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 1:07 pm

Yea, it's definitly Tarzan cena.

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 7:46 pm

Correct, cena. "Kreegah" meant "beware," and "bundolo" meant "kill!"

I kinda like these trivia threads. (Imagine that.

) I don't wanna see this one die, so let's kick it back off with a really easy one:

What band does the theme song for the South Park TV show?

vtmarik · Post by **vtmarik** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 7:12 pm

Primus.

What song of theirs was featured in Guitar Hero II?

bryguy · Post by **bryguy** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 12:37 pm

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 5:20 pm

Is it Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld?

vtmarik · Post by **vtmarik** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 10:25 pm

Much Older, you guys. It was "John, The Fisherman"

UTM, you go for it.

All righty then, here's one from the other big sci-fi world:

What's the only Klingon phrase that James T. Kirk ever spoke on-screen, and what does it mean?

"Maltz! Cho'EE'CHU!"
Translation: Maltz! Engage Transporter!
Star Trek III.

Ok, another question:

Who was the person killed by the Klingons in Star Trek III, and what special relationship did he have with Kirk?

UselessTriviaMan · Post by **UselessTriviaMan** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 12:40 am

vtmarik, I'm astounded and maybe a little frightened by how quickly you answered that...

And the Klingons killed David Marcus - James Kirk's son.

Who is Mister Mxyzptlk, where's he normally from, and how do you send him back there?
