I've used the riddle with the water jugs several times with friends and family. Solution (spoiler, there is two!) (gallon = gal): Solution 1 (starting with the 3 gal jug): - Fill the 3 gal jug - Transfer the water to the 5 gal jug - Fill the 3 gal jug - Transfer water to the 5 gal jug until it is full (leaving 1 gal in the 3 gal jug) - Empty the 5 gal jug - Transfer the remaining 1 gallon to the 5 gal jug - Fill the 3 gal jug - Transfer the 3 gallon to the 5 gal jug There is now precisely 4 gals in the 5 gal jug Solution 2 (starting with the 5 gal jug): *This is the solution they magically arrived at in the movie - Fill the 5 gal jug - Transfer water to the 3 gal until full (leaving 2 gals in the 5 gal jug) - Empty the 3 gal jug - Transfer the 2 gals to the 3 gal jug - Fill the 5 gal jug (this is where we were in the movie) - Transfer water to the 3 gal jug until full There is now precisely 4 gals in the 5 gal jug

Some might disagree but it is actually the one I watch the most. I'm thoroughly enjoying Summer Blockbuster Week! Fun fact---this is the third movie that Bruce and Sam were in together, but the first one that they actually shared scenes.
