Boromir's guess the famous game #350 [Nakadai Tatsuya is the famous person, cyberbob wins!]
1. I'm thinking of some famous figure, it can be a philosopher, politician, entertainer, scientist, fictional character, criminal, animal, being, etc.
2. You need to ask me a yes or no question about this person, for example, "Is the person still alive?," "Does the person work in the entertainment industry?," any question you can think of that helps you to reveal the answer. The host answers with yes or no only.
3. Maximum 1 question and 2 guesses per player per answer.
4. The winner can either start a new game or say "pass." In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another.
5. Can't edit a question or guess once posted. Delete ONLY.

Cyberbob wins with Nakadai Tatsuya*, one of my favorite Japanese actors. Actually one of my favorite actors period. Has given a great many fantastic performances. I'm currently rewatching Kagemusha, in which Nakadai plays as a thief who looks exactly like the daimyō Takeda Shingen and who serves as Takeda's double in order to mask his death after Takeda is killed during a siege. My favorite Nakadai movie is Harakiri (original title Seppuku), where he plays as a disaffected rōnin whose family is destroyed by the injustice of a prestigious samurai house. Several of my favorite movies star Nakadai. He just turned 89 years old last month.
* From now on I'm just always gonna use Japanese names this way, surname first, because it feels more natural to me. I've gone back and forth on this in this game, as Japanese names are usually reversed in Western languages, but it just feels weird to me. Like saying Jinping Xi, or Jong Un Kim, or Jae In Moon, it doesn't feel natural to me saying a Japanese name with the given name first.
