Interactive Media - Quiz Topics

So far my biggest issue with producing the quiz was not the actually coding, but on what topic to base it on.

Originally I was going to simply do a 'General Knowledge' quiz, though this seemed a little bit easy, and would make giving the quiz any sort of generic theme difficult.

After spending much time thinking about I have come up with a few possible topics on which to base the quiz, they are as followed:

Transformers - Theme-wise this will be relatively to achieve, as they have the whole 'roboty, futuristic thing' going on. It will also appeal to fans and, having watched the old cartoons and new films, it will not be too difficult to think of the questions and how to incorporate the use of sound and a movie file into it.

DC/Marvel Trivia - Again, generic theme throughout, easy to think of questions and quite topical, especially considering all the latest Hollywood blockbusters are based on the comics. Only thing to consider would be whether the facts were based on the films rendition of events or based on the original comic. Either way, I will have to make it clear before hand on what source the trivia is based on.

Twilight
- Having a lot of female friends that love the books and films, this topic seems very much targeted at a more female audience. Creating a theme will be easy and already knowing the target audience will make this very easy to produce. As with the DC/Marvel style quiz, this will also require me to decide whether I base the quiz on the books, or the films. However, having never read the books this might be quite difficult and require outside sources to make sure it's accurate.

Any film-based quiz would be easy to produce, in terms of theme and simplicity, but now it's just deciding on that topic.
