Jason and I had our first date night as parents on Saturday night and we went and saw Due Date. Jason liked it more that I did, but it had its moments. I am always charmed by Downey and I’ve listed his characters in the order that I like his movies best with a hint (these are only the movies I’ve seen). Can you identify the movie? Leave a comment telling me the # and the name of the movie. No Googling or looking at other commenter’s answers – that’s cheating and no fun! Play once or every week. It only takes one correct answer to be eligible for a prize. You have until Thursday night to submit your answers.
Each answer worth 5.5 points, with 6.5 points for the bonus question.

I’m not doing the quiz because they are always too hard for me but I just had to say how much I love Robert Downey Jr. I think he has such charisma … and I’m so glad he got himself together.

OK, well, I am pretty much boycotting this quiz because I do not see Julian from Less Than Zero on here and that was one of his best performances – even for a now dated 80’s movie. C’mon Stacy! Rent that one will ya? I obviously haven’t watched many of his movies since I know very few of these:
1 = Tropic Thunder
5 = Iron Man movies
6 = Sherlock Holmes (thanks for the layup!)
9 = Due Date
15 = Back To School
Bonus = Ally McBeal
27.5 ponts! Less Than Zero has been added to my list. I should spend more time actually watching these movies than I do in keeping the list up to date!
CORRECTION!! 34 points! Thanks for coming back to check on me. When there is a baby on my lap mistakes are bound to happen!

I actually answered all of these and it says that it posted my answers but I don’t see them anywhere. Do I need to repost them?
No need to repost. I hide the comments until Friday morning when I post the answers. Although yours ended up in my spam folder. Don’t know why but I fixed it. Glad you’re playing this week 🙂

#6: Sherlock Holmes

Good for 11 points!
