Which actor has played Batman the most times?
so would assume anywhere so Adam West is correct.

18 Name the Western adaptation of these Samurai movies
a) Seven Samurai..............The Magnificent Seven ...........http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magnificent_Seven
b) Yojimbo...............A Fistful of Dollars
In 1964, Yojimbo was remade as A Fistful of Dollars,

c) Zatoichi

I have gone through the list myself and all my answers match up to the list posted here except this one.

I can see that A Fistful of Dollars is an adaptation of Yojimbo but also noticed that there are others linked to it but Last Man Standing is the only one I can see that is an "officially authorized remake of Yojimbo."

The directors of A Fistful of Dollars did not seek permission from the original director of Yojimbo and were sued.

I could be wrong here myself but thought I would post my findings.

OP says

"there are about 40 questions to answer, I am rubbish at films"

69 points maximum, 32 questions some with multiple answers.

The question says "Name the Western adaptation..". I would say Last Man Standing is a "Gangster" rather than a "Western".
