Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
Yes
Not the genre this person is most well known for. But getting the genre is probably where I would focus!

Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
If I were interpreting the question very broadly and/or very literally, I could say yes, but that would be inconsistent with my comments in prior threads.DreamTrawler wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2024 4:58 pmKnown for acting in the horror, action, or sci-fi/fantasy genres (including superhero movies)?
Adopting an "how would the hypothetical average person respond to this question" standard, the answer is a pretty strong no.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
Is this person best known for acting in either musicals or romantic films?
Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
Back to the game from a week away. Got to say, as I read the last two subjects, and the first few questions of this game, I was hoping it was going to be Boris Karloff.
Ever won Oscar or Golden Globe?

Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
Using the wikipedia definition of these genres and aforementioned hypothetical "average person," no. But at least one of these I suppose you could argue yes.Spartaculous wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2024 6:25 pmIs this person best known for acting in either musicals or romantic films?
No
Edit: The wikipedia part may be unintentionally misleading, may be best to ignore it. One or both of these is a significantly closer call than the other genres guessed so far but I still think there is something distinct that hasn't been guessed yet.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 284
Not her
At 17 questions I'll say this: I realize there is somewhat of a tradition of not actually following the endgame rules; maybe the person I chose has made things a little harder than anticipated (compared to my last round, which was a quickie). Rather than give explicit hints that turn this into a Wiki race, I'll just allow additional questions beyond 20 if necessary.
