S05.E01: Just Plane Crazy

Season five has begun! A brand new cabal of 27 pop culture know-it-alls have thrown their hats into the ring, and are ready to show their stuff! We'll kick off the bracket with new players Nate and Seth, playing alongside Sean (returning from season one, and our music theatre special). We've got a tribute to the great trailer voiceover artist Don LaFontaine in round one before taking to the skies in round two as we test our players' memories of movies and tv set on airplanes. And as (almost) always, it all comes down to the lightning round!Support Us On Patreon🥇 Become a patron and get special perks from ad-free episodes to full bonus matches!Follow Us🐦 @USAQuizShow on Twitter📷 @USAQuizShow on Instagram🧑‍💻 Our website is USAQuizShow.comEpisode Notes🗒 Brackets and full episodes notes can be found on this episode's page on USAQuizShow.com🛹 Sean didn't mention it, but in Marc Webb's Spider-Man movies, Peter Parker actually is a skateboarder.🎥 This week's round one is only a small sample: Don LaFontaine recorded more than 5,000 trailers (including basically every movie in the 90s).🥷 The biggest question about the "Street Fighter" movie is how they got Raul Julia to agree to do it in one of his last screen roles.🐔 The "Sacrificial Chicken In The Market In The Counter-Strike Map 'Italy'" Scorebreak.
