What are you meant to do if you haven't seen any of the films in a particular series? Like Hunger Games for me.

I had that same dilemma with 2 of the questions but I just selected the earliest of the films.

As far as the results are concerned in my particular case, they very kindly guessed that I was 29 years YOUNGER than I am.

I got 1992 which is 7 years out . I'm young at heart! However it says the reason for this is that I clearly "grew up in the 90's" which is true... I was 5 in 1990 and 15 when we reached 2000.

Surely people born in 1992 grew up mostly in the 2000's?

Well yes this is a good bet; if in doubt the original film in the series is usually the best one (e.g. Jurassic Park, Hunger Games, and Twilight (although every Twilight film is bad, the first one is the most bearable))

1 year off, which is a failure by them.

Why didn't it ask me my favourite Carry On movie?

I stopped after a few questions. I don't care about at least two of those series.
