Six Degrees of Separation

"Six degrees of separation is the theory that anyone on the planet can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances that has no more than five intermediaries."

"Six Degrees of Separation is a trivia game based on the premise that everyone on Earth can be connected using six associations or less. The game is usually applied to movie trivia, where actors are linked to other actors by movies they have in common, and most notably the ubiquitous actor Kevin Bacon is used as a vehicle through which to connect actors."

With that said, lets play the game here. Using six associations or less, lets try to connect someone to someone else.

Who should we start with?

We used to play this by connecting Jeff Bridges to other actors instead of Kevin Bacon.

I'm up for a spot of this, but someone else start.

Usually it is for connecting actors. Should we try our hand at that, or go further and connect someone to someone else? =P

It would be extremely difficult to do with anyone other than famous people.

I like using actors because I'm a film geek. Image

Oh, and the way I usually play is to make as few connections as possible....

JD -> Al Pacino (Donnie Brasco) -> Robert DeNiro (Heat) -> JP (Goodfellas)

Hmm... all I can think of is this:

JD -> Timothy Hutton (Secret Window) -> JT (General's Daughter)

What's your deal with Johnny Depp anyway? :lol:
