Hmm, chess. Interesting game. Time consuming, thought provoking, intelligence boosting. Pointless?! Whatever your view of the game, there’s no denying its popularity.
64 dark and light squares, all those pawns and pieces, gambits, checks and check mates. Doesn’t ‘Death‘ play chess? What film was that?…

You’re right with the Bill & Ted reference, Mark, but I believe that that was a parody of an older film in black and white.
In Bill & Ted, didn’t they go on to play other games like Twister?!!!
A great film!

Found it. The film was: “The Seventh Seal” (”Det Sjunde inseglet”), a film made in 1957. More info here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050976/
