2.What connects them?
Hints:
1.Matrix.Now come on, that’s a throw away hint.
2.The figures are strategically cut and one has a nice throwaway clue. J
Answer:
The answer I was expecting is "Wachowski brothers - Andy and Larry Wachowski". But I am also accepting the answer "Burlyman Entertainment" as an answer to this question.
In future, I would expect much more specific answers and any answer(s) closer to the correct one would still not be considered.

Pega Quizzers FAQ
Hey fellow Pega quizzer. Welcome to the treasure quizzing blog!!!
What is Treasure Quiz? It’s a quizzing blog to be short. I used to conduct a quiz competition through this blog by posting questions on a daily basis and quizzers getting back to me with the answers. This blog used to be quiet active a couple of years back and more recently was active during the football world cup in South Africa. But off late busy work life is making difficult for me and for that matter all of us to pursue our extra -curricular activities. This is an effort to make life at Pega a little more fun filled through a little bit of quizzing.
What are the new rules & regulation of this quiz competition? I will be posting a trivia for you to answer on a weekly basis (every Wednesday of the week). And you can get back to me with the answer to the question before the next question is posted (the next week). More details in therules & regulationssection.
How do I participate in this quiz competition? You can participate in the quiz competition in by following me on any of the following 3 mediums.
Google Groups Join the Google group – “treasurequiz”
NOTE:Use the side panel to follow me on facebook/twitter/google-groups
Who can participate in this quiz contest?
Right now this quiz contest is open only to Pega employees. Rest of the world can answer thequestions.
Should I be a quizzer to answer the questions? Not necessary. Most of the questions are answerable by just using the web search facilities like google and wikipedia. Sufficient clues would be given in case the picture is difficult to recognize on the first go. In fact your web searching skills will be put to test also by this quiz contest
What is the duration of this quiz contest? This quiz contest will be conducted for 3 months (approximately 12 weeks). The next quarter a new quiz contest will be in place.
