    Alright, Sting is definitely not easy to do. Most of his credits are for songs, so here's the first one I came up wtih...

    1) Sting sang "You Will Be My Ain True Love" for Cold Mountain, starring Nicole Kidman
    2) Nicole Kidman was in The Hours with Julianne Moore
    3) Julianne Moore was in The Forgotten with Gary Sinise

    Upon further research, Sting appeared in Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels... so using that:
    1) Sting was in LS&2SB with Jason Flemyng
    2) Jason Flemyng was in Drum with Taye Diggs
    3) Taye Diggs was in Rent with Tracie Thoms
    4) Tracie Thoms is in upcoming The Devil Wears Prada with Meryl Streep
    5) Meryl Streep was in The Hours with Julianne Moore
    6) Julianne Moore was in The Forgotten with Gary Sinise

    (Hey Ranma - well done on connecting to a main CSI character and not guest appearances! It's tougher.)

    Next: Um.... try.... Billy Zane

    ^^Yeah, it's pretty hard to connect them to main characters (especially since all I know are Gary Sinise films :lol: ) I was tempted to go the Danny Glover-Mel Gibson way but I was able to resist. Heh. Also, I try to put them in films that I've actually seen, you know? So it's a lot harder for me to connect them.

    As for Sting, I've only seen him in two movies: The Bride and Dune. Didn't know he was in Lock, Stock. Hmm, must rent it.

    Moving on:

    1. Matthew Lillard to Michael Vartan in Dead Man's Curve
    2. Vartan to Robin Williams in One Hour Photo
    3. Williams to Sally Field in Mrs. Doubtfire
    4. Field to Gary Sinise in Forrest Gump (see?)

    Next: Kenneth Branagh

    Welld one on the connection - connecting to main characters is fun. Sometimes I'll start with an ending CSI character and look up their reel resume on IMDb, then go from there - that's tough but rewarding when you can do it. Today's ending point will be Jorja Fox.
    So... (after much annoyance)...

    1) Kenneth Branagh to Will Smith in Wild Wild West
    2) Will Smith to Matt Damon in The Legend of Bagger Vance
    3) Matt Damon to Ben Affleck in Dogma
    4) Ben Afflect to Joe Pantoliano in Daredevil
    5) Joe Pantoliano to Jorja Fox in Memento.

    Booyeah.

    Next: Eric Bana... and if you're feeling adventerous, connect to Marg Helgenberger.

    Well so much for the challenge... but since Hormiga didn't post a next target, someone else connect Eric Bana to Marg Helgenberger without using Carmine Giovinazzo. :p
