I think you all know the deal. I will give the names of two people involved in the film industry and the number of degrees they are separated by, and you have to tell me the pattern of separation. Whoever guesses an appropriate pattern wins, and picks the next pair and number.
Example:
Jack Black, Will Ferrell, 3 degrees.
Answer: Jack Black acted in King Kong with Naomi Watts, who acted in I Heart Huckabees which was directed by David O. Russell, who produced Anchorman in which Will Ferrell acted.
Get it?
Okay then, my turn:
Steve Carell, Laurence Fishburne, 4 degrees. _________________ fight |

So if you wanna amend that for your particular entry, that's cool... But other people can use directors, etc. if they want. _________________ fight |

Oh no, I didn't mean "they" as in those two actors. I meant "they" as in that group of people that people always refer to as "they."  _________________ fight |
