• RQFTCINO13 Game 10, Rounds 4-6: GGs, scores, and hockey

    From Mark Brader@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 8 07:01:46 2023
    These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2013-04-15,
    and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
    by members of the Night Owls, but have been reformatted and may
    have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the correct
    answers in about 3 days.

    For further information, including an explanation of the """
    notation that may appear in these rounds, see my 2022-09-09
    companion posting on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian
    Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".


    * Game 10, Round 4 - Canadiana History - Governor-Generals

    Each of these people was Governor or Governor-General either of
    New France or of one of its successor entities up to and including
    the present dominion of Canada.

    For #1-4, name the sovereign they represented (or one of them, if
    there was more than one). Name and number required if applicable.

    1. Samuel de Champlain (governor from 1633).
    2. Louis de Buade, Comte de Frontenac.
    3. Sir Guy Carleton, Baron Dorchester.
    4. John Lambton, Earl of Durham.

    For #5-10, name the prime minister of Canada at the time (or one
    of them, if there was more than one).

    5. Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice, Marquess of Lansdowne.
    6. Lord Julian Byng of Vimy.
    7. Vincent Massey.
    8. Jules Léger.
    9. Roméo LeBlanc.
    10. Michaëlle Jean.

    11. For fun, but for no points: who is the governor-general *now*,
    in 2023?


    * Game 10, Round 5 - Audio - Movie Scores

    Surprise! You're getting the audio round, so there are three rounds
    in this set. But, of course, you're getting it without the audio:
    I think it should be playable enough that way.

    In this round, you'll be given the year a movie was released and the
    composer of the score, and you name the film. In the original game
    you had to name the specific movie whose score had a clip played;
    most of them were quite well known. Here, if (according to the
    IMDB) the composer scored more than one movie released that year
    then I'll accept any one of them. Cinematic fiction features only,
    that is; no documentaries, shorts, or TV work.

    1. Elmer Bernstein, 1956.
    2. Harold Faltermeyer, 1984.
    3. Jerry Goldsmith, 1979.
    4. James Horner, 1995.
    5. James Horner, 1997.
    6. Francis Lai, 1970.
    7. Nino Rota, 1968.
    8. Nino Rota, 1972.
    9. Marc Shaiman, 1991.
    10. John Williams, 1981.


    * Game 10, Round 6 - Sports - Hockey Awards

    This is a round on hockey trophies or awards. We will give you the
    name of the trophy or award and you explain what it is awarded for.
    Some of the answers are similar; for full points you must give
    sufficient detail to distinguish them.

    1. Vezina Trophy.
    2. Art Ross Trophy.
    3. Jack Adams Award.
    4. Conn Smythe Trophy.
    5. Hart Memorial Trophy.
    6. Frank J. Selke Trophy.
    7. Calder Memorial Trophy.
    8. Lady Byng Memorial Trophy.
    9. James Norris Memorial Trophy.
    10. Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy.

    * Game 10, Round 4 - Canadiana History - Governor-Generals

    Each of these people was Governor or Governor-General either of
    New France or of one of its successor entities up to and including
    the present dominion of Canada.

    In the original game it wasn't mentioned that they were going to be
    in chronological order, so I left it that way.

    For #1-4, name the sovereign they represented (or one of them, if
    there was more than one). Name and number required if applicable.

    1. Samuel de Champlain (governor from 1633).

    (He was governor 1633-35, according to one source. For some of
    these earlier ones, different sources have conflicting information.)
    Louis XIII. 4 for Dan Blum and Dan Tilque.

    2. Louis de Buade, Comte de Frontenac.

    (1672-82 and 1689-98.) Louis XIV. 4 for Dan Blum and Dan Tilque.

    3. Sir Guy Carleton, Baron Dorchester.

    (1768-78 and 1786-95.) George III. 4 for Dan Blum and Dan Tilque.

    4. John Lambton, Earl of Durham.

    (1838.) Victoria. 4 for Dan Blum and Dan Tilque.

    For #5-10, name the prime minister of Canada at the time (or one
    of them, if there was more than one).

    5. Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice, Marquess of Lansdowne.

    (1883-88.) Sir John A. Macdonald.

    6. Lord Julian Byng of Vimy.

    (1921-26.) Arthur Meighen, William Lyon Mackenzie King. As in the
    King-Byng thing, eh?

    7. Vincent Massey.

    (1952-59.) Louis St. Laurent, John Diefenbaker.

    8. Jules Léger.

    (1974-79.) Pierre Trudeau. 4 for Dan Blum.

    9. Roméo LeBlanc.

    (1995-99.) Jean Chrétien. 2 for Joshua.

    10. Michaëlle Jean.

    (2005-10.) Paul Martin, Stephen Harper. 4 for Dan Blum.
    3 for Joshua.

    11. For fun, but for no points: who is the governor-general *now*,
    in 2023?

    Mary Simon (or Ningiukudluk).


    * Game 10, Round 5 - Audio - Movie Scores

    Surprise! You're getting the audio round, so there are three rounds
    in this set. But, of course, you're getting it without the audio:
    I think it should be playable enough that way.

    In this round, you'll be given a composer's name and the release
    date of a movie scored by that composer, and, of course, you need to
    name the movie. In the original game a clip was played and you had
    to name that specific movie; most of them were quite well known.
    Here, if (according to the IMDB) the composer scored more than
    one movie released that year then I'll accept any one of them.
    Cinematic fiction features only, that is; no documentaries, shorts,
    or TV work.


    I'll report on the wrong answers here as well.

    1. Elmer Bernstein, 1956.

    "The Ten Commandments". 4 for Joshua.

    2. Harold Faltermeyer, 1984.

    "Beverly Hills Cop"; also "Thief of Hearts" and "Didi - Der
    Doppelgänger" ("Non-Stop Trouble with My Double"). 4 for Dan Blum,
    Joshua, and Jason.

    3. Jerry Goldsmith, 1979.

    "Star Trek: The Motion Picture"; also "Alien", "Players".
    4 for Dan Blum and Joshua.

    4. James Horner, 1995.

    "Braveheart"; also "Apollo 13", "Balto", "Casper", "Jade", and
    "Jumanji". 4 for Joshua.

    5. James Horner, 1997.

    "Titanic"; also accepting "The Devil's Own". 4 for Joshua and Jason.

    6. Francis Lai, 1970.

    "Love Story"; also "Berlin Affair", "Eyes Full of Sun",
    "Hello-Goodbye", "Le passager de la pluie" ("Rider on the Rain"),
    "Le voyou" ("The Crook"), "Madly", "The Games", "The Modification",
    and "With Love in Mind"! 4 for Joshua.

    7. Nino Rota, 1968.

    "Romeo and Juliet"; also "Spirits of the Dead". 4 for Joshua.

    8. Nino Rota, 1972.

    "The Godfather"; also "Roma". 4 for Joshua and Jason.

    "The Sting" came out in 1973 and the score consisted of music by
    Scott Joplin (dating from about 30 years before the era it was set
    in, by the way) as adapted by Marvin Hamlisch.

    9. Marc Shaiman, 1991.

    "The Addams Family"; also "City Slickers" and "Scenes from a Mall".

    10. John Williams, 1981.

    "Raiders of the Lost Ark"; also "Heartbeeps".

    John Williams did score "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire
    Strikes Back", but that was a 1980 release.


    * Game 10, Round 6 - Sports - Hockey Awards

    This is a round on hockey trophies or awards. We will give you the
    name of the trophy or award and you explain what it is awarded for.

    By the way, if I'd processed these rounds after watching yesterday's (Tuesday's) "Jeopardy!" instead of before, I would have added a note
    that a version of *this* question

    6. Frank J. Selke Trophy.
    Best defensive forward.

    was asked on the show. They mentioned that it goes to forwards,
    but none of the players knew what it was for.
