Another Cheeky Weekender!? 📽️

Is anyone up for another Cheeky Weekender? :slightly_smiling_face: It is movies again, but I don’t think we did too badly last time. :crossed_fingers::slightly_smiling_face:

All newcomers are most welcome Check out how to hide your answers, pop them in a post, and I’ll add you to the Scoreboard. :+1:

These questions are once again from the movie quiz I found in the Boxing Day bargain bin. :slightly_smiling_face: However… These are the last ones. :slightly_frowning_face: They were fun though, and I think we got a pretty good run all in all. :slightly_smiling_face: Hopefully something else will turn up. :crossed_fingers:
