Odd One Out, the daily movie quiz
Odd One Out is a daily movie quiz in five rounds. In each round, three films share an actor (or three actors share a film), and you pick the one that doesn’t belong.
The rules
Look at the round
Each round shows four films, or four actors.
Find the shared credit
Three of them share a credit: the same actor, or the same film.
Pick the odd one out
Tap the one that doesn’t share it. The answer reveals the shared credit.
Finish five rounds
Solve all five rounds to finish the day’s quiz.
An example
Which film doesn’t belong?
- Forrest Gump
- Cast Away
- Titanic
- Big
Titanic. Forrest Gump, Cast Away, and Big all star Tom Hanks.
Tips
- Look for the actor first. Once you see who three of them share, the fourth stands out.
- Check whether the round shows films or actors. With actors, look for the one film three of them share.
- The lightbulb gives a clue if a round has you stuck.
