Tons of great questions!.......2007-01-10

Entertaining.......2003-06-10
This book contains hundreds of useless and fun trivia questions about the older (and some of they newer) Disney characters, films, shorts and attractions. From `Can you name Daisy Duck's three nieces' to `What was Mickey's Starland originally called when it opened in 1988', this book has enough easy trivia mixed within the very picky, unusual facts to keep any type of Disney fan entertained.
The book is also organised very well, with the index listing the character's name, the movie or the attraction. So, want to find questions on Peter Pan? Check out page 57. How about Walt Disney? Page 171 for you!
And of course trivia books are always interactive - one game I played with my little ones was to ask them the questions for a particular movie and then watch that movie so they could find the answers they missed.
Great fun for the family!

Great Fun.......2002-10-02
This quiz book has a total of 12 complete Jeopardy games, complete with Final Jeopardy questions. As in the television show, topics are all over the board (pun intended), including things like "John Cusack Movies," "Crustaceans," "Boo!" (in which each answer contains the letters b-o-o). Each topic has five answers with space to write the question, and the correct question is on the back of the page, so there's no having to flip back to an index or anything like that.
While there may be better ways to prepare yourself for Jeopardy competition (reading reference books and atlases comes to mind), this is a wonderful entertainment and a great way to pass time while on the phone, in the doctor's office, or just before bed.
What is ... quizzical.......2001-07-03
This book has plenty of quizzes which I call quizzicals and tests, which I call ... tests. It is like the TV show, only without that annoying host. Thumbs up from me, eh.
Book Description
Do you know what films have given us the following quotes?"What we have here is a failure to communicate.""Excuse me while I whip this out.""Would somebody get this walking carpet out of my way?""I don't know why they call this stuff Hamburger Helper, it does just fine by itself."And how are you at movie trivia?In The Blues Brothers why are Jake and Elwood "puttin' the band back together"? In Airplane!, which dinner was poisioned: the fish or the chicken? True or False: Diane Keaton won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Annie Hall.For the movie buff and video hound, What's that From? provides hours of entertainment. You can test your knowledge with more than 1,000 quotes and questions from more than 250 contemporary films--from Academy Award winners to cult classics. Also included are bonus questions on actors and directors, special categories on individual actors, movies, and themes (Wester, baseball, sequels), plus a section devoted exclusively to Academy Award-winning performances.It's all here in the ultimate tribute to the great movies of the seventies, eighties, and nineties from National Lampoon's Animal House to When Harry Met Sally.... So the next time you hear someone say, "It's just a flesh wound, " you won't have to ask "What's that from?"
Customer Reviews:
Disappointed.......2005-01-06
This was not at all what I expected. The format is a bit confusing at first, and the the fact that not one line listed under Mel Brooks was ever spoke by him in a movie just set me off. He wrote the lines, but that's not the point.
In addition, many of the lines are so generic/obscure as to be pointless, uninteresting and thus no fun. There is some interesting stuff, but when we played guessing games from it over the holidays, we quickly lost interest. I would not recommend this book and hope that there is something better out there.
Outstanding Fun.......2002-12-04
For many of us, the quoting of movies is second nature. We do it all the time, often without realizing it. And often times we know of movie quotes that are familiar even if we've never seen the movie. The book brings all of this to bloom in a wonderful book asking you to recognize quotes both general and specific to an actor, theme or movie. As the book progresses the quizzes become more difficult, and provide a real challenge to even a movie geek. Just the kind of book to have fun with some friends over a few beers. No lofty ambitions here, just a hope to make you think, and be entertained.
An extremely entertaining and engaging book of film trivia........1999-02-11
What a great idea! "What's That From?: The Ultimate Quiz Book of Contemporary Movie Lines" is a wonderful compilation of movie quotes that bring you back to great movie moments. The book is fun to read on one's own and even more fun when quizzing friends with trivia questions that tickle the corners of the brain. This book is wonderful for any movie buff!
How come nobody thought of this before.......well done JAI !.......1998-03-24
Very entertaining and educational for us wannabee movie buffs. It reminds me of the many times spent sitting around after work in the restaurant where I waitressed, trying to identify similar movie quotes, while playing pass the pigs, and doing shots. Wonderful book, when is the next edition.
Must read for movie fans.......1997-08-03
The must read sleeper of the year! Every movie fan of Generation X will thoroughly enjoy this unique, hilarious compilition of movie quotes. My friends and I sit around the diner and quiz each other all the time on movie quotes. Now we have a resource to settle our late night cinematic disputes. From the old standards to the most obscure funny lines, Jai has them all

POP QUIZ
By Cynthia Boris (1999)
RATING: 3/5 Stakes
Pop Quiz is a surprisingly difficult little collection of Buffy trivia questions. Covering Seasons One through Three, the book asks everything from what music is playing when Giles arrives home to find Jenny's body in "Passion" to the name of the boy murdered in the woods in "Beauty and the Beasts." Not all questions are so difficult, and the book is divided up into several different types of questions: some chapters ask you to identify a specific quote, others ask the meaning of a pop culture reference, while still others are devoted to specific people or episodes.
At the end of each chapter is a score box, and if you add up the scores for each chapter you find whether you're a Cordette (the lowest of the low in Buffy trivia knowledge), a member of the Xander Brigade, a student in the Willow Study Group, an Honorary Watcher, or, best of all, the next Slayer. Judging from my score, I'll be hanging out with Willow a lot--which doesn't bother me one bit. Although probably not something one wants to sit down and read from front to back, this is the perfect book for a long bus or car ride with a friend.

What a book........2001-02-16
In the internet, you'll find like hundreds of Buffy quiz, right? If you don't know the right answer..You'll think where the hell did he knows the right ans. Well, if you buy this book, you'll know those quiz too. i promise.
don't have one.......2000-11-17
I thought htis book was very good. Just as the televisio series is. But could have been a little more detailed. So you don't actually feel you are reading a book. But watching the television. But out of most of the books i read this would probaly be a good one tell others about. Because, well it is written pretty good. And if you like he series, and like to read then this would be a good book to read before going to bed. And for the guys to, because they will fall asleep thinking about Sarah(buffy).
Here's a test you will want to take........2000-09-02
This is just pure fun. Cynthia Boris has put together great questions. A true fan should be measured by their Buffy IQ. I was amazed by the number of questions I could answer and a little frightened too. I think I may have watched some of these episodes one too many times. Then again no that's impossible, I didn't answer all the questions correctly. I will have to study and take the tests again. This is a great book to share with your friends. A must for every would be scoobie.
great book.......2000-08-31
great quiz. it is more fun if you can get another buffy fan to take it with you. i did decent, considering i started watching in july of last year. but the books have caught me up on some of the earlier episodes so i was not a total dunce. but this book is a must for all fans.

Book Description
When Beatles fans get together, these are kind of questions they hurl at each other: crazy, clever, and arcane; gleaned from decades' worth of listening and reading between the lines. The Ultimate Beatles Quiz Book is the most elaborate and entertaining collection of these questions, trivial and otherwise, that has ever been compiled by a rabid Beatlemaniac. Carefully selected and arranged to appeal to eager beginners, car-radio-sing-alongers, and even the most jaded diehards (and we mean it!), it's also an unstoppably readable, one-of-a-kind mine of facts, photos, and Fab Four lore.Born in Vancouver, Washington, in 1960, Michael J. Hockinson has been afflicted with second-generation Beatlemania since October 1972, when "Yellow Submarine" had its network TV premiere (on CBS, for all you trivia buffs who read author bios for priceless tidbits). A free-lance writer and correspondent for Beatlefan magazine, he still lives in Vancouver with his wife.

The Beatles quiz book is so fun to read! when i read something very shocking it keeps me hooked. Everything is very interesting and im nearly obsessed with the Beatles-Im huge fan.

I ordered it as used and it was in a good condition. It's like reading the biography on The Beatles, but in very fun way. Any Beatles fan should order this-I highly recommend! XD

Fascinating informative book.......2002-10-05
You will learn something from this book, guaranteed. There are 50 chapters, each devoted to a different aspect of Beatles trivia. Full of rare pictures and a comprehensive index. This book is great.
TAKE THE BEATLE QUIZ, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!.......2002-02-28
This excellent, power packed book contains information that even seasoned Beatles fans find fresh! Sharply written, the intelligent format and questions are sure to delight all readers. Veteran fans are sure to love it and lay persons will find this book to be a useful source of information when discussing Beatle related matters with fans.
This book is just plain fun. It is an excellent way to test and reinforce one's knowledge of Beatle matters and it is also a good way to impress other fans. I love this book.
A round of applause and a hearty "yeah, yeah, yeah!" from me!
Far More Than A Quiz Book!!!.......2000-11-25
This book has so much more information about "The Beatles" than any others I've read... including The "NEW" Anthology!!! The author is obviously an "EXPERT" in all that is "Beatles". I pride myself as quite the Beatles aficionado, but this book is so far beyond anything I can relate to, it's not even funny. The amount of work that went into the creation of this book is simply mind boggling. Every Beatles fan on the planet should own this book. If you "think" you "know" The Beatles; this book will challange you beyond your wildest dreams. By far the "Best" resource ever written on "The Fab Four". Thank You Mr. Hockinson; for a job well done. The "Ultimate" to say the least.
Customer Reviews:
One of the best rock trivia books I have ever read!.......2006-08-03
Boy, was this book a great find! I was very pleased with this new book from former Monkee Micky Dolenz. After flipping through just the first few pages, I was delighted to discover the range of questions and the interesting answers included. Micky has done a great job of capturing everything about rock music that has made it so much fun over the years.
The game layout in the book is both useful and clever. It allows the reader to only see any given question at one time while each successive answer is on the following page. There's a "How to Play the Games" section in the front of the book that explains game format very well - once I was done reading it, playing the games was a snap.
There's also more in this book besides trivia questions. Micky tells classic stories about meeting The Beatles and gives a poignant remembrance of his friend, singer/songwriter Harry Nilsson, that alone is worth the price of the book.
As a big-time Monkees fan, I was pleasantly surprised to find this book in the 40th Anniversary year of The Monkees. Micky's still one of the greatest, and this is probably one of the best rock trivia books I've ever read. If you like rock 'n roll trivia, you will be SO happy that you bought this book!
I'm A Believer.......2006-05-31
I recently acquired a copy of Monkee Micky's Rock and Rollin' trivia book. When I picked it up, I figured it'd be mostly about the Monkees and such, but no.... Micky's done his homework and is putting us through our pop culture paces over a period of four decades. I own 1000+ CDs and I did NOT know that Paul McCartney is the guy saying "Quite rightly" during Donovan's Mellow Yellow. :) This book is a blast, and will often send you scurrying back to your CD player, if not your old turntable, to check it all out.
I highly recommend it to my fellow baby boomers, as well as to our offspring who find earlier rock and roll music to be history of interest.
