One Battle After Another trivia works because Paul Thomas Anderson's thriller hides a lot of detail in its aliases, raids and long time jump. Questions can cover the French 75, the Ferguson identities, Baktan Cross and the operation closing in on them.

A strong One Battle After Another quiz can include Bob and Willa and the Ferguson aliases, the sanctuary town of Baktan Cross, the French 75 and the Otay Mesa detention centre raid, Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw and his medal ceremony, the Christmas Adventurers Club, the Sisters of the Brave Beaver in the Chupacabra Hills, Sensei Sergio and the safe houses, the sixteen-year gap and the chase that follows, plus the cast, the director and the production details behind the film. It works because the plot rewards viewers who tracked the names, places and codewords rather than just the action.
