I searched but I couldn't find any old post of this game. So here goes. When I play, I like to use only movies, no TV. Whoever you finish with, name who you want the next person to connect them with.
For anyone who's never played (doubtful but why not), you have to connect two actors within 6 moves. For instance: Connect Hugh Laurie & Patrick Fugit. I'm not going to use House, because that's TV. Hugh Laurie was in Sense & Sensability with Alan Rickman, who was in Hitchhikers's Guide to the Galaxy with Zooey Deschanel, who was in Almost Famous with Patrick Fugit. Ta-da!
For the first one, how about connecting anyone from the 2 DVDs I just bought: Down With Love (Renee Zellweger, Ewan McGregor, Sarah Paulson, David Hyde Pierce) and The Sound of Music (Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer). (Yes, I rock.)
Oh, and try not use IMDb. I'm trusting ya here.

Renee Zellweger is in Empire Records with Anthony LaPaglia...
Anthony LaPaglia is in The Bank with David Wenham...
David Wenham is in 300 with Gerard Butler...
Gerard Butler is in Dracula 2000 with Christopher Plummer.
Tada! Though there's probably a quicker way.

Anyway, Jean-Claude Van Damme to...Eddie Murphy (might be easy, I'm not sure).

I was really excited about that one and had to share.)

I thought I wasn't going to be able to make it in 6 (Gary Cooper!?!? Are you mad?!?!) but I was able to eliminate one move. Dave Foley in Cars is a technicality, but they have him credited, and if I believe rightly he did record new dialogue for it.
Bruce Campbell was in Sky High (a very good movie that everyone should see) with Dave Foley
who was in Cars with Paul Newman
who was in Exodus with Eva Marie Saint
who was in North by Northwest with Cary Grant
who was in Notorious with Ingrid Bergman
who was in High Noon with Gary Cooper.
Gary Cooper to Emma Thompson.

I got it, but it took the full six. Don't know enough Gary Cooper to do better.
Gary Cooper was in High Noon with Lloyd Bridges
Lloyd Bridges was in Jane Austen's Mafia with Jay Mohr
who was in Pay it Forward with Haley Joel Osment
who was in Sixth Sense with Bruce Willis
who was in Die Hard with Alan Rickman
who was in Love, Actually and Harry Potter and the PoA with Emma Thompson
Okay, let's try Emma Thompson to Piper Perabo

Emma Thompson was in Much Ado About Nothing with Kenneth Branagh
who was in Swing Kids with Christian Bale
who was in The Prestige with Piper Perabo.
Finally! Something that doesn't take 6 moves.
Piper Perabo to Angelina Jolie.
