Is someone unfamiliar with "Tommy Boy?"

I don't know about someone, but I am. I had to look it up. I thought it maybe was some old movie based on Kipling's poem Tommy.

Question 10 – 8 Queen of Fun
According to a “royal source,” Queen Elizabeth II became addicted to what when she saw her grandson using it after lunch one day?
A. Slip ‘N Slide
B. Nintendo Wii
C. Super Soaker
D. Electronic cigarettes

Slip ‘N Slide = broken hip,
the queen with soaked hair and runny makeup would be a bigger scandal than a topless Kate,
Electronic cigarettes reads neither the queen nor grandson.

Wii is the only real possibility. Can't believe that someone who got the fish odor question walked over this, especially on Q 10 but you do funny things when you're actually up there.

I'll JTQ. I don't associate "Seven Samurai" with Hollywood, and don't think "Tommy Boy" was part of its heyday.

I know this one all too well - because the Corps' Baltimore office didn't do a very good job of overseeing work at Arlington, it lost its contracting authority for six months and our district ended up picking up the slack. Not only that but all Corps districts got hammered with a lot of data calls to make sure they weren't guilty of the same thing.
