If anyone of you aren't too familiar with this game, then I'll tell you how it works. I'll be your host, and when I give you the answer, see if you come up with a question. Be sure you phrase your answer in a form of a question. Here we go, lets play. The Catagory is "Engines on Sodor", and here are 5 clues:1. He is the only engine on Sodor who is red and he was known as a splended engine. 2. This engine seemed different compared to the others; he looked square shaped, his coat is brown and has a bell on his roof top. 3. Stuart and Falcon usually called Duke this nickname. 4. He is the only engine who is the fastest on Sodor, though the steamies are initially impressed with him, but over time came to resent his arrogance. 5. Other than the other female engines, she is the only one on Sodor is bright yellow and wanted to carry the special's special. See if anyone of you can come up with anything. Good luck!

I'll give a go at answering the first five clues:
1. Who is James.
2. Who is Toby.
3. What is Granpuff.
4. Who is Spencer.
5. Who is Molly.
Have I done this right? I have seen one Jeopardy (U.S version) with Dave Mustaine and George Clinton.

Yeah you got it all right! Great job. But yeah Dave was on the Rock 'n' Roll version of it, he's pretty good for a rock singer.
Lets switch catagories to "A Look Back with TUGS":
1. He was the director of TUGS and its sister show, although on May 28th, 2008 he passed away.
2. The name of this star tug was featured on the "TUGS" logo during the intro.
3. Until 1991, after the show lasted in the 1st season, all the TUGS models are bought as they were rebuilt and repainted by this company.
4. Everyone believed that the name of this episode is the season finale.
5. After Robert D. Cardona directed "Theodore Tugboat" in 1993, he later provided the TUGS Footage for this spin off.

You are correct, but unfortunately since David Mitton died, you're now suppose to say "Who was David Mitton" since he's not on Earth anymore. Thats okay, at least you did pretty good.
Alrighty then, see if you guys can handle "Ships and Boats":
1. Top Hat is this kind of tugboat, he like to tow freight cars on a car float other than towing a garbage barge.
2. The kind of ship the Titanic was back in 1912, in 1936 the Queen Mary was built and launched as this kind of large ship.
3. It can take about 20 minutes to sink a ship when this type of a german submarine launched a torpedo directly to a munition ship.
4. During the WWII, this kind of ship the USS Indianapolis was blown up and sanked during that time
5. The Savannah was the first ship in America that is this kind.

Very nice mate! At first I thought the Indianapolis was a different kind of battleship. Thats all right though. Lets try "Cartoon Nostalgia" shall we?:1. BBC One aired this cartoon about adventures of a family of Loch Ness Monsters and the MacTout family in late 1984. 2. This flexible little fellow has a constant named Pokey the Horse. 3. He was half man and half machine in DiC's 80s detective series. 4. The name of this orange cat from the comic strip has his own children series, it was considered to be the best childrens television series. 5. The author who created Winnie the Pooh have made large amounts of books of it in the 1920s, until more than several years later Disney have turned Pooh from the books into a classic kids film and a TV series.

You're correct.
Switching catagories to "Bad Movie Plots" if thats okay:
1. Released in 2004, the title of this sequel of Baby Geniuses is about a group of smart-talking toddlers find themselves at the center of a media mogul's experiment to crack the code to baby talk.
2. The sequal of the original Poseidon film released in 1979 became a critical and commercial failure, highly disliked by co-star Angela Cartwright and was the only Irwin Allen disaster film not to receive any Academy Award nominations.
3. In this 2000 childrens flick, a little tank engine finds a lost engine and Mr. Conductor must protect the lost engine from the evil diesel. This movie has having lost in its Americanization what the British originally did so right.
4. Based on the renowned Japanese manga/anime franchise, this live-action follows the adventures of young Goku who is drawn into the legacy of the mystical spheres of the title, and trains to become a powerful warrior with the aid of the wise but lewd Master Roshi and the weapons-loving Bulma, among others.
5. In this 1979 Disney sci-fi film starring Maximillian Schell, a space crew travelling the cosmos runs into a long-missing craft, manned by Dr. Hans Reinhardt. To be honest its like Star Wars with hard to see glitches on there but it was awarded for great sfx.

Well my friend, you got the two right, except for the 5th one. The correct response to #5 is one of my favorites, what was "The Black Hole". The other two are "Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2" and "Beyond The Poseidon Adventure".
