Here's a new game I just thought of.... so many child actors and actresses grow into adulthood and then either choose different careers after school or just fade away. Others continue acting, but not really in anything notable. So let's see how you guys are at recognizing a few that I chose. If no one guesses within 24 hours I will provide hints.

Please, one guess per person every 12 hours. Give others a chance.


All of these people had signficant roles as a preteen or a just-barely-teen in a major movie between 1980 and 1996. For (irrelevant) bonus points, name the movie that they got their big shot in.


#1.
Carrie Henn, Aliens


#2.
Mara Wilson, Mrs. Doubtfire and Matilda


#3.
Jake Lloyd, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace


#4.
Henry Thomas, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial


#5.


#6.
Jonathan Ke Quan, The Goonies and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom


#7.
Tom Guiry, The Sandlot


#8.
Ross Malinger, Sleepless in Seattle


#9.
Tina Majorino, Waterworld


#10.
Danny Lloyd, The Shining

#2 is the youngest daughter from Mrs. Doubtfire. I'm sure she's in other stuff, but that's all I recognize her from.

#6 is Short Round from Temple of Doom and the kid from The Goonies

#3 is Jake "Hey, one day, I'm gonna be Darth Vader !" Lloyd, who we all remember fondly from Phantom Menace (right...).

#10 is Danny from The Shining.

The 2nd part of this game will be to guess how many of them have done porn after their fame ended.

Henry Thomas Et number 4

Complete guess, but she seems to have the same eyes, but is no.1 Newt from Aliens? Don't know the actresses name.

#9 is Tina Majorino from Waterworld, Corrina, Corrina and more recently from Veronica Mars and Napoleon Dynamite.

Oh, I think you might be right!

Very good, Surfer. Her name is Carrie Henn.


Also... I don't know if anyone was having a problem with #5, but I was, so I replaced it with another one.

is #7 Smalls from the Sandlot?

is #8 Rocky's kid?

Yes, Brockster, #7 is Tom Guiry from The Sandlot. Well spotted!

And no, #8 is not Rocky's Kid.

Remember, one guess per 12 hours.

I expect #8 to be the one no one gets (maybe).

Damn #8... I know that face, I know I know him...

Is #8 the kid from Flight of the Navigator?
