Actually, I should have called this the Movie Aptitude Test, since
its questions take the form of those "comparison" questions in the SAT.
I think that many movie enthusiasts who keep up with what's what
should be able to figure out the first part, but only the hard-core
(and eclectic) movie fiend will be able to get the second.

Please e-mail solutions to the address below.  If I don't get much 
response (or, as Reiher would put it, if nobody pays any attention) 
I'll post a strong hint next week.  I'll post (my) solutions and a 
list of winners in a couple of weeks.


Kelvin Thompson's Movie Fun Quiz:

    I.  _Lenny_ is to _????_??_
        as _The_China_Syndrome_ is to _????????_.

    II. _The_China_Syndrome_ is to _????????_
        as _Quadrophenia_ is to _????????_?????_.

    BONUS.  Add other pairs of movies to the lists above.

Scoring is arbitrary and capricious.  Partial credit may be awarded
for incorrect answers if work is shown.


Cryptically,

getting since I announced my retirement.]
