Okay, start with an answer, then ask the question, Jeopardy style. Example, Answer: a naughty little rhyme or a place in Ireland.
next person Question: What is a Limerick?
Then that person leaves an answer for the next person.
Nothing naughty, scandalous, full of innuendo, or otherwise offensive.
The Question doesn't have to be the exact one the previous person was thinking of, as long as it makes sense. For example: Rolaids. The anticipated Question might be : What is an antacid?, but if the next person said, "How do you spell relief?" that would work too. . .
Okay, I'll start.

Well, according to this, it was neither Dan Radcliffe nor Harrison Ford. According to IMDB, the top 15 grossing movies are 1. Titanic, 2. Star Wars 3. ET 4. Star Wars ep.1 5. Spiderman 6. Lord of th eRings Return of King 7. Jurassic park 8. Lord of the Rings Two Towers 9. Finding Nemo 10. Forrest Gump 11. Lion King 12. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone 13. Lord of the Rings Fellowship Ring 14. Star Wars episode 2 15. Star Wars episode 3
Harry Potter, Forrest Gump, Nemo, and Spiderman are the only title characters in the bunch. And none have three.

I don't know where you found you list (was it U.S. only?) but it's not jiving with what I found on IMDB. My answer was based on

From the Slinky web site: The History of the SLINKY
“What walks down stairs, alone or in pairs, And makes a slinkity sound?"
"A spring, a spring, a marvelous thing, Everyone knows it’s Slinky…”
"It's Slinky, it's Slinky, for fun it's a wonderful toy"

close enough.

I'm guessing you mean Agi VEGA.
(Geeky astronomy bit follows...The star, Vega, is one of the brightest in the sky, only 25 light-years away, in the constellation Lyra. It is three times larger than our Sun and, at 350 million years old, much younger as well. Vega has a disc of dust circling it, and at least one large planet which could sweep debris aside allowing smaller worlds like Earth to exist. )
Okay, this relates to my past...
