the Keanu Reeves game

[jundam]

hi, sorry i havent been to these boards in a while. however, while i was gone, i came up with a game where i can link virtually any two relatively well-known actors together simply through their film or tv roles. now i know alot of you may be thinking, "Hasn't this game been thought of before?", or "Haven't i seen this on tv?". well honestly, you have. but i took it a step further. not only do i refuse to use any help to find the answers, i do it all mentally. in addition, i can link anyone to keanu reeves. i know many people may think this is stupid, but i just wanted to try something to bring something new to the message boards. here are the guidelines:

1) if i cant link who you choose, you get a point.
2) make sure the celebrity is well-known. (no extras or anything like that)
3) if i cant link them right off the bat, please give me at least one relatively famous movie that they were in.

I think thats it for now. let the challenges begin.

2) make sure the celebrity is well-known. (no extras or anything like that)

Too vague: does it have to be an actor/actress, or directors/producers/celebraties not directly related to the movie industry are also included?

but i just wanted to try something to bring something new to the message boards. here are the guidelines:

I think we had a dumb-down version of this back in the "Matrix-rampage" days. (In-joke. Newbies joined after Jan 2004 won't know what I'm talking about.)

Oh well, until jundam gives us a definition of 'celebrity' for his Mr K game, try Toshio Mifune.

[jundam]

just actors and actresses. i gotta admit, i have no idea who toshio mifune is.i dont use the IMDB, but i had to for him and i still came up dry. im not too familiar with japanese films. i was suprised to hear about this six degrees of Kevin Bacon. its like a computerized version of me.lol. oh and you get a point. i know the point thing is preety pointless because i dont have any prizes. sorry about that.

Toshirô Mifune - Takashi Shimura "The Seven Samurai"

Don't worry I know you didn't cheat, hence the smiley, because that site gets from Toshiro Mifune to Keanu Reeves in 2 films.
