I just pretty quickly decided I wasn't going to spend all afternoon looking up casts, directors, locations, etc. In my defense, I did see a NYC pattern, but I've never heard of DUMBO in NYC and I was thinking of Chinatown in Los Angeles -- because, duh, that's where that movie is set, Connections! -- and I didn't see any other candidates. As for the other groups, I'd like to think that if I'd sat there long enough I might have spotted rhymes, animals and units of measurement.
So I just guessed things in straight lines. If it weren't for the first one, I'd at least have achieved a pattern of every color in every group.
