The IMDb Game

Before you do anything with this game, you first have to go to the Internet Movie Database.

Now that you've done that, search for a movie. Whatever movie that comes to mind. The title of that movie should come up as a search result--click on it.

Now you're at that movie's details page. Scroll down to the bottom of the information there to the Recommendations section. There should be one recommended film. Click on that link. (NOTE: DO NOT click on the "Show more recommendations" link or you'll ruin everything.)

Now that you've gone to the page for the recommended movie, scroll down again and find ITS recommended movie. Continue doing this until a movie repeats.

For instance, if you search for The Godfather, the recommended film will be The Godfather Part II, which will recommend The Godfather again. Thus, The Godfather only gets a score of 3, since there are three parts of the sequence.

Try to find the movie with the highest score.

X-Men has a high score. Its sequence is X-Men ---> Superman ---> Return of the Jedi ---> Transformers, the Movie ---> Toy Story 2 ---> A Bug's Life ---> Toy Story ---> A Bug's Life. Since A Bug's Life repeats, the sequence ends there. There are eight parts of the sequence, so X-Men receives a score of 8. Try to find one higher. If you do, send me an e-mail.

Good luck!
