Choose a starting player who will explain why they are late.
How to Play
The starting player may start by saying something like “Sorry I’m late because I had to save my daughter who got kidnapped when she was traveling in Paris”. The group then needs to guess what movie they are referring to. In this example, the answer is the movie Taken. The player who guessed correctly then goes next to explain while they are late. The game continues like this until you have had enough. Or for a competitive variation, split into teams, and the team that guesses the most correct answers wins the game.
