I decided the Serious Forum would be the best place for this because most of the General Forum people will have no chance at getting any of this. It's a game - find a link in less than 6 steps linking Queen to someone else. I'll start with a fairly easy one: Queen & Rutger Hauer |
Micrówave 28.09.2006 17:24 |
Rutger Hauer was in SURVIVING THE GAME with Ice T. Ice T was in TRESPASS with Ice Cube. Ice Cube was in BOYZ IN THE HOOD with Mario Van Peebles. Mario Van Peebles was in HIGHLANDER 3 with Christopher Lambert. Christopher Lambert was in a Queen Video. |

Ice Cube sounds just about the same as Ice Ice Baby Ice Ice Baby stole the Under Pressure bass riff from QUEEN 4 steps, next? |

Wow - you are awesome. My answer was the Rutger Hauer starred in Past Midnight with Clancy Brown from Highlander, yours was much better. I forgot to say that the next person should pose another separation at the end of their answer. |
Penetration_Guru 28.09.2006 18:32 |
Rutger Hauer was in a film with Gene Simmons of Kiss who performed at the same thingy as Queen last month. I make that two steps. |
bohemian 11513 29.09.2006 03:18 |
Rutger Hauer is going to be their next singer and frontman... remember, he too was one of Fred´s all-time favourites! One step... right, pure genius! ;-) |

OK, whats about Freddie and Michael J Fox? |
The prophet's song 29.09.2006 05:13 |
I've got one with me and Freddie 1) I have a friend (wow) 2) She has a friend who is a Freddie impersonator 3) He has met Peter Freestone 4) Peter was a friend and worked for Freddie!! woo hoo!! go me!! I also have one with Evangaline Lilly, but we'll save that one for another time... |

Brian and Clint Eastwood: -Clint was present at the Tsunami Aid and so was Leonardo Dicaprio. -Leonardo Dicaprio played in Gangs of New-York with Daniel Day-Lewis. -Daniel Day-Lewis played in In the name of the Father in which Beatie Edney stars. -Beatie Edney plays Heather in Highlander. -Brian May composed the score of Highlander. Five, it's alright... |

To 1/2 microwave; Axl Rose WAS in "The Dead Pool"-all the members of Guns and Roses (at the least members at that time, before Axl got rid of everyone) appeared in the movie, though none had speaking parts-go back and watch it before you you start throwing out insults. They appear in two scenes, on a boat where Harry Callahan confronts the director of the horror film and at the funeral for Jim Carrey's character.

(Not that this is relevant, but the '98 show was a bit of a dud. Only 300 people showed up, and afterwards Brian May was picking his brains, and the brains of my lecturer in fact, trying to figure out why the show bombed. A pity that I was too young to go see him... a lasting regret of mine. Still, I got to see and meet Julian Lennon a little while after!). |

Yes. Actually, the 6 degrees of separation theory is about how everyone in the world is connected to everyone else - by 6 people or less. Therefore, theoretically, I am connected to anyone else in the world through mutual friends or people I have met (which is true, whenever I think about it). You can play the movies-only version, but Queen were not movie stars. |

Well...they're both dead? But I guess that's not what you wanted to know. Or maybe Irwin saw a Queen concert some time in Oz? Or when they both were alive, lots of people thought about them something like "oh what's the big deal about that stupid prat of a man", and when they died, people realized how important they were? I don't know for sure, but I guess they both walked through the shit of llamas at one time in their lives? At least Freddie did when he visited Michael Jackson. Maybe Freddie saw an animal in Michael's private zoo, which Irwin also saw, touched, rescued, jumped at, jumped on, rolled around with.... Jan |

Freddie and Steve Irwin eh? Well Freddie fronted a band called Queen, and Steve was from Queensland.. Steve was a croc hunter, Freddie was a cock hunter.. But, if you wanted to go the proper route, Steve was good friends with Russell Crowe, who worked with Kim Basinger in LA Confidential. Freddie claimed briefly to be Kim Basinger, so there you go. Russell was also with Sharon Stone in Quick and the Dead, which brings us back to the Total Recall connection above. |
