Some Trivia for You Guys and Prizes and Stuff

Another good turn out for Trivia Tuesday - 45 entries and most were pretty close. About 10 of you were spot on and JasonBaldwin beat all of you in a “being picked randomly by random.org” contest.

List One - ACTORS WHO USE STAGE NAMES

1. Natalie Portman
2. Ben Kingsly
3. Joan Rivers
4. Cary Grant
5. Jonathan Taylor Thomas

List Two: MOVIES THAT WERE MADE INTO STAGE MUSICALS

1. Footloose
2. Hairspray
3. Legally Blonde
4. The Lion King
5. Carrie

List Three: The technical terms here are “genericized trademarks” or “proprietary eponyms” but if you explained the phenomenon correctly we accepted that answer.

1. Vaseline
2. Scotch Tape
3. Xerox
4. Post-Its
5. Band-Aid

So jasonbaldwin, which item from the list of proprietary eponyms (number 3 is not an option don’t be a smart ass) would you like? We’ll even be super nice and get you the real brand, not the off-brand version. That extra dollar fifty for the real thing is SO WORTH it, right?
