Since people are posting games, figured I'd go with this one, my favorite party game.

Rules are simple, name an actor, and see if anyone can link him/her to Kevin Bacon in 6 movies or less.

I'll start.

Lionel Barrymore.

ok, to make it easier, I'll move forward with Lionel Barrymore to demonstrate how it works.

Lionel Barrymore was in "It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart
Jimmy Stewart was in "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" with John Wayne
John Wayne was in "The Sons of Katie Elder" with Dean Martin
Dean Martin was in "the Cannonball Run" with Burt Reynolds
Burt Reynolds was in "Striptease" with Demi Moore
Demi Moore was in "A Few Good Men" with Kevin Bacon

see? simple

If you do mean Kevin Bacon, it goes this way:

Alec Guinness was in Lovesick with Elizabeth McGovern, who was in She's Having my Baby with Kevin Bacon.

That was too simple.

the game is called "6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon" so who else would I mean other then Kevin Bacon? LOL!!

Nice one! I picked Sir Alec Guinness because of two things. 1) He was in Star Wars and with the last one out I thought it would be good. 2) Because on BBC7 (Radio) is playing his biography in his own words. So I have him on the brain. LOL

The Woodsman, starring Kevin Bacon, and The Aviator in which actor Kate Beckinsale portrayed Eva Gardner, were both released on December 17th of last year.

Or does that count?

Or, if that doesn't count:

Kate Beckinsale (who played Eva Gardner in The Aviator) starred with Hugh Jackman in Van Helsing
Hugh Jackman starred with Sir Ian McKellan in X-Men
Sir Ian McKellan played Gandalf and Sean Bean played Boromir in The Lord of the Rings
Sean Bean starred with Oliver Platt in Don't Say a Word
Oliver Platt starred with Kevin Bacon in Flatliners

You're right, that was more challenging.

My own Bacon Number is 2.

Please leave your tributes outside the main gate; my gardener will be by later to pick out the keepers before tossing a match.

my own Bacon Number is 1, Kevin Bacon lives near the store that I work in. He's shopped at my store on more than one occasion.

Nice guy, btw.

Folks... it doesn't count unless you were in a movie. I'm sorry.

My Bacon Index is 3. And I'm not going to name the movie I was in, because it sucked (literally... it was a vampire film... not that that narrows it down any). But I was in it with a guy who was in a movie with several members of the original Saturday Night Live cast, almost all of whom have been in various films with Kevin Bacon.
