Not too sure if you know this game or not. Its pretty cool. What you have to do is name an actor, and then you have to connect that actor to Kevin Bacon, within 4 actors.

For example: Peirce Brosnan

1) Pierce Brosnan was in Mrs Doubtfire, with Robin Williams
2) Robin Williams was in Awakenings with Robert De Niro
3) Robert De Niro was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.

Its a good game, and I have yet to find an actor that cannot be linked to Kevin Bacon within 4 actors (obviously old actors like Charlie Chaplin are probably not possible).

Here is a challenge for someone, who can get to Kevin Bacon from Bruce Lee?

War....... Its not fantastic

Right, Bruce Lee to Kevin Bacon, here goes

1. Bruce Lee was in Enter the Dragon, with John Saxon
2. John Saxon played one of the FBI blokes in From Dusk Till Dawn, with Harvey Keitel
3. Harvey Keitel was in Reservoir Dogs, with Chris Penn
4. Chris Penn was in Footloose with Kevin Bacon

Here's a tricky one Robert Shaw to Kevin Bacon

Oh, I love Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon!

OK, Robert Shaw:
1. Robert Shaw was in Force 10 from Navarone w/Harrison Ford
2. Harrison Ford was in Raiders of the Lost Ark w/Karen Allen
3. Karen Allen was in Animal House w/Kevin Bacon

(You could also take the Jaws route and connect Roy Scheider to Meryl Streep to Kevin Bacon.)

I have no life.

Couldn't we play this game with actual actors? I've never ever heard of Ricki Lake, Chloe Webb, Ruth Gordon, Robert Shaw, Karen Allen, or John Saxon. I know Peirce Brosnan and Robert DeNiro, though.

Nice one.... I didn't realise you could do it through John Saxon. This is how I did it:

Bruce Lee had a cameo appearance in Marlowe, staring James Garner.
James Garner was in Maverick, staring Mel Gibson,
Mel Gibson was in Lethal Weapon 2 with Joe Pesci
Joe Pesci was in JFK, and so was Kevin Bacon.

I was going to put it into Whatever Happened to Pong but for some reason I thought that the game had to be Frank Black related.

Cheating is more funner.


The Oracle says: Benicio Del Toro has a Bacon number of 2.

Benicio Del Toro was in China Moon (1994) with Pruitt Taylor Vince
Pruitt Taylor Vince was in Trapped (2002) with Kevin Bacon


Now you can link Frank Black to Bacon.

Okay it took a while
Frank Black is in, Low Budget Time Machine, with Patrick Macnee
Patrick Macnee was in, A View To A Kill, with Christopher Walken
Christopher Walken was in, True Romance, with Christian Slater
Christian Slater was in, Murder in the First, with Kevin Bacon

checked with the oracleofbacon.org and it goes via gigantic so it's misleading as he was'nt credited as an actor in gigantic.

Okay who wants to try Orson Welles
