Poetry for $350

OK, Poetry for $350. Matt B., you must answer two questions about Poetry to win the money. Here's the first one.
The first great work of English literature is the Anglo-Saxon epic poem "Beowulf." But, who in the work is the main hero?

I believe it's Beowulf

Beowulf is indeed correct!
Not much a tricky question. That's one down. One to go.
There are two epic poems titled "Argonautica." Both deal with the Greek hero Jason and his men, the Argonauts. In both epics, what are Jason and his men attempting to find?

Famous Lovers for $500 with the Fast Forward.

$500 for the Fast Forward with Famous Lovers. You know how this works. Which means should you decide to go all the way, you must answer at least 6 questions. Here's Question 1, which is a "Who am I?" question.
I was married to Orpheus, happily minding my own business, prone to dancing around in meadows now and then, until one day a naughty satyr saw me, lusted after me, and tried to capture me. As I attempted to flee, I accidentally trod on a venomous serpent which promptly bit me, and I died. What was my name?

All right. Here's Question #2.
Probably the most famous couple ever to be both gangsters and lovers. Who were this couple?

Bonnie and Clyde

You are now up to $3,100!
Matt R. - $3100
Matt B. - $3965
Want to stop now, or continue? 2 more will put you into the lead, and another 2 will give you the $5,000 goal.

OK, here's Question 3.
In the 1930s and 40s he was often called "The King of Hollywood". She was as well known as him, specializing in comedy roles. She died tragically young in a plane crash. Which couple does this describe?
Warning: Need full names for both of them.

Right for another $500!
Matt R. - $3600
Matt B. - $3965
Do you want to stop now, or answer this question to take the lead?

Post by mringgenberg on Oct 5, 2014 12:30:10 GMT -5
Stop now.

Post by dad90 on Oct 5, 2014 13:15:48 GMT -5
OK, he's stopping here, meaning you are now trailing Matt B. by $365.
Matt R. - $3600
Matt B. - $3965
We'll see if Matt R. made that decision a right one, because it's Matt B's turn to spin.
BTW, Matt B., you are $1035 away from the goal, and this next spin, in which I do believe it's the 10th spin, could give you the game. I don't know if this is the 10th spin, but if it is, that means that this is the last chance to spin up all 6 Jokers to automatically win the game.
Matt B., spin the reels when ready.
