Default The Kevin Bacon Game

Ok some scientist (or weirdo, whatever story is true) found out that you can link any actor with Kevin Bacon in 5 steps.

When I told my brother, he asked about some silly Belgium actor called Urbanus. This will serve as an example.

Urbanus played in Hector with Cas Baas.
Cas Baas played in "Soldaat van Oranje" with Jeroen Krabbé
Jeroen Krabbé played in The Fugitive with Tommy Lee Jones
Tommy Lee Jones played in JFK with Kevin Bacon.


So in the Kevin Bacon game, someone names a random guy that we try to link to..... well it doesn't have to be Kevin Bacon. Could be the Super Mario movie for a nice twist. The one who wins (gets a link within 5 steps) gets to name a new actor/actress (/director...).

I'll be so egoistic to start: Kate Blanchett.

Kate Blanchett played in the Talented Mr. Ripley with Jude Law.

Jude Law played in Enemy at the Gates with Bob Hoskins.

Bob Hoskins played Mario in the super mario bros movie.

Dae-su Oh? I don't know him, but I bet there's some link between his country and Hollywood.

That's what I said in my example, some Belgian weirdo who played in 10 films max. If I'm bored I'll try it.
