How the Samuel L. Jackson movie timeline works

Samuel L. Jackson has made a lot of movies, and this deck asks you to sort a big batch of them by year of release. Nearly every card lists the director below the title. One film is placed for you at the start, year visible. After that, every card you draw goes into a gap of your choosing; correct gaps reveal the year, while wrong ones still send the film to its true spot and cost one of three lives.

He spent years in small parts before becoming one of the busiest actors around, and the deck leans hard on blockbuster franchises: space sagas, superhero team-ups and action series, mixed with his many films for one particular writer-director. Franchise cards are where runs fall apart. Sequels and crossovers stack up close together, and it's easy to lose track of which installment came when.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
