Movie Trivia - One Day Only! (Sort Of)

As a special treat for anyone who reads this blog today, Saturday February 24th (or reads their subscription feed for it), a quick movie trivia quiz for Blog Points. As always, answer from memory only! You don't have to be the first to get the right answer, but you can't look at anyone else's responses, either! I'll post the correct answers sometime tomorrow.

Update around midnight on Saturday: Since nobody but Vicki has commented yet, I'll extend the deadline into Sunday.

1) What movie musical favourite did Malcolm McDowell sing as he doled out a little of the ol' ultraviolence?

2) Who provided the soundtrack for Alan Parker's under-appreciated 1984 classic, Birdy?

3) Who were the three male leads in Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven? Bonus Blog Point: Who played English Bob?

4) Which former NFL player punched a horse in Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles?

5) In which two Hitchcock movies did Tippi Hedren play the female lead?

6) What's the meaning behind the title of the 1974 Sci Fi movie, Zardoz?

7) Who directed An Inconvenient Truth?

8) In the original Terminator movie, history recorded the destruction of most of mankind as starting in what year?

Yikes, way to hard!
1-No idea, but then Frank Sinatra came to mind, so maybe My Way?
2 - XXXXXXX - likely the only one I'll get right (you know I know this one.) Peter Gabriel
3 - Clint, Morgan, no idea, English Bob? Peter O'Toole!
4 - Joe Montana
5 - Lifeboat and then Marnie or Frenzy.
6 - Zardoz! Have I seen this movie? Was it really bad?
7 - Well not Al Gore...sigh
8 - Terminator year...hmmm well it was in the future but not by much 1984 would be funny but I'm thinking likely more around 1998 though my first instinct was 2011.
As I said, very hard questions mister!
