Bill Murray learns to dance! [Simple puzzle inside FIXED]

Closed

There was a time before Bill Murray became an actor. This was long ago, perhaps a bit too long.

Little Billy was rocking back and forth in his custom made, wooden lazy boy when his feet started tapping to the sound of the floorboards creaking.

He loved the sounds that it made, and it made him jump out of his chair and jiggle around.

Soon after this, he started his acting career and he was in many great films such as Meatballs, CaddyShack and lest we forget, Ghostbusters!

Just one left. Thanks.
The answer for Q8 is misspelled. Q6 may have an incorrect spelling as well unless it's a red herring ( I didn't solve that one yet).

Q5 is a bit more obscure but has been in several known movies. Hints are related to careers in some way

Stuck on Q4, pretty sure I guessed her name, but it doesn't work. Could you check to see if maybe there is an incorrect spelling as well?
Thanks for the puzzle.

Question 4 is correct. I should hope I spelled that one correctly as they are a personal favourite of mine :)

This is based on a short story I wrote about 15-17 years ago called "Bill Murray and the Killer Mimes".

Except there are no mimes.

He's a great actor.

q00u

I haven't seen the hints yet, but I think there's a fairly clear reason why some of us got Q5 right away, and most didn't. But I can't say what that reason is, because it would also be a hint of sorts.

I still need 2, 4, & 8, but this is a good quiz from what I've seen so far.
