Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon

[Kellieintx]

Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon is a trivia game based on the concept of the small world phenomenon and rests on the assumption that any individual involved in the Hollywood, California film industry can be linked through his or her film roles to actor Kevin Bacon within six steps.

The poster attempts to connect the actor or actress posted above to Kevin Bacon is 6 steps or less. Regardless of Pass or Fail, when you are done with your attempt post the name of another American actor or actress for the next member to attempt to solve.

I will start with an easy one...

Kel, good luck. I tried this game years ago. It was a massive fail. I think you and I could have fun tho!

John Goodman was in The Big Lebowski with Julianne Moore

Julianne Moore was in Crazy Stupid Love with Kevin Bacon.


KB has been in everything. Hard to think of someone who isn't a degree of 1.


I think maybe to warm some people up, we should do some 1's Kel.



Demi Moore

Okay I am piggy backing on your first.

Ok, you found the one possible subject that could drag me back in here.... Movie trivia! And especially this one!

We're dorks.

I prefer to think of it as movie aficionados


OK so since Jen thinks it's getting too easy since KB has been in so much, there is another way of playing if you so desire.
Name two actors and connect them together through movies they've been in with others.
And you can add twists. Like, you HAVE to go through a KB movie to make the connection. Or an even harder one is to require that you make exactly 6 jumps before making the connection (this can be used with any version of the game).
But I will defer to the topic starter to call the rules.

In the meantime....

Al Pacino in Oceans Thirteen with Matt Damon.
Then follow the well worn path through Minnie Driver to get to KB.


Dolph Lundgren

[Kellieintx]

Dolph Lungren- The Expendables with Eric Roberts.

Eric Roberts - The Specialist with Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone in He Said/She Said with Kevin Bacon.




Jason Statham

(btw I don't care how we play it, I just find it challenging)

[bhestertx]

Did you not realize that Statham is The Expendables too? lol
So I could just take your path with Eric Roberts,
but this works too...
Dolph with Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Expendables
Arnold with Sharon Stone in Total Recall
Sharon in He Said, She Said with Kevin

Jason Bateman
