Well, we got some good feedback and we will probably alternate between providing the 'Quiz drop' a day during most weeks and providing a theme based quiz per week in between.. And therefore here we have a movie based quiz!!
So, Put on your 3-D glasses and join us for a ride across movieland ...

2. 200,000 were volunteers and about 90,000 were paid for this movie scene. This scene was shot on the exact day of the 33rd anniversary of the subject of the scene/movie. About 20,000 feet of reel was shot and it was lated edited to within 2 minutes on screen.Stalwarts like Anthony Hopkins, Alec Guinness were considered for the role but was finally done by a then unknown actor , who was seen in a play by thedirector's son.
