The only one of those that I know is a book, and therefore my guess, is B. Time Bandit.

It's an important decision, and I have to ask. Is that your final answer?
CuriousHeartless
Well-Known Member
None of the others are novels as far as I know, so yeah. Well something, I've heard of Time Bandit, not sure if it's actually a book, but I've heard of it. And I'm so headstrong and self-confident that I have trouble changing my mind. I lock in that answer, Regis.

I can tell you it wasn't a book...
(the audience begins to groan)
Wait a minute, wait a minute, I wasn't done yet! It was a movie. Written by...
Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin, you've just won $32,000!
(HORN, LIGHTS GO UP)
Already? Well, that sound means we've run out of time for tonight, but Curious, you shouldn't worry, you'll be back next time, and everyone else will be back, and I'll be back too! Until then, from New York, everybody, goodnight!

Abrupt ending, I know, but I'm following the original show.
Anyhow, we have one spot to fill in the ring of fire for the next episode (someone already signed up for one of the two spots). Who wants in?

That was it! I knew I saw Time Bandit somewhere. I saw the movie. Well can't wait to be back tomorrow, Regis. Wait, would I pick back up in the hot seat?

Yeah, just like the old show, we'll walk in at the start, talk quickly, and continue the path to the million.
That being said, one more person is all we need to kick back off again.

Last night, he made it to $32,000 only using one lifeline in the process. So how have you been since last time? Do you think you can make it to the top?

As it stands, you're just 5 questions away from one million dollars in cash. You had three lifelines before, for getting this far you've earned the right to switch out any one of the next 5 questions for a new question. You also can ask our wonderful audience, phone someone for help, or even Double Dip, but remember once you use the last one you must play out the question. We're going for $64,000, you might as well play this next one - are you ready to keep going?
