I wonder what mine is. I've a friend who has a friend who runs a small 3D animation studio that did some work on Veggie Tales and Inspector Gadget. Since people keep saying I look like Kevin Bacon, I should figure it out 😉

Let's see...

1) My friend
2) His friend did work on Inspector Gadget (designed the dashboard of the Gadgetmobile)
3) Inspector Gadget starred Matthew Broderick
4) Matthew Broderick was in Election with Collen Camp
5) Colleen Camp was in Trapped with Kevin Bacon

There ya go! 😀

Robert Dahl was in I kongens kler (1933) with Hilda Fredriksen
Hilda Fredriksen was in Syv dager for Elisabeth (1927) with Sonja Henie
Sonja Henie was in Countess of Monte Cristo, The (1948) with Michael Kirby
Michael Kirby was in Mr. Patman (1980) with Gary Chalk
Gary Chalk was in Trapped (2002) with Kevin Bacon
 
Geez....I tried a bunch of reasonably obscure actor's names (Ethan Suplee, anyone?) and I couldn't get any further than 2 degrees away.

Holy crap you look like Kevin Bacon!
 
I'm a 3!

Well, not me exactly, but somebody with my name. Almost as exciting as running me on IMDB and finding out I'm a honeypot driver and also that I played hopckey for Ferris State University.

I swear Colleen Camp is involved in every name I put into this damn thing. I got a 3 so far with Charlie Chaplin.

Take a look at her IBMD info, she's like in 50 different movies. And they don't even have a pic of her, so I can put a face with the name. she popped in half of my 6 degree tries.
 
Colleen Camp is in 73 different movies.. oye ve!

Btw, I tried Frank Thomas the baseball player, and came up with a degree of 3. Go Mr. Destiny

How'd you cheat? And BTW that hardly seems like a link with "major motion pictures" -- President McKinley taking the oath? wtf?
