NAME THE MOVIES - Two Clues For Each One
PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS IN A COMMENT, OR YOU WILL RUIN THE QUIZ FOR EVERYONE ELSE. POST THEM IN A PRIVATE NOTE TO ME, BUZZ OF THE ORIENT, AND I WILL REPLY WITH YOUR SCORE AND THE CORRECT ANSWERS.
Please remember that I am on the other side of the world (of most of you) and I could be asleep when you send your answers, so be patient - I will get to your PN as soon as I can.
I'll try this again, but in order to discourage alternative suggestions from what the answers are, I have posted TWO image clues for each movie. The symbols or pictures represent either the title of a movie or an important item or aspect of the movie or is in some way representative of it. None of the image clues are actual screen shots from the movie films. Many of the questions are about relatively well known movies, but some classics and lesser known ones are included. Please number your answers the same as the images. A lot of the questions should be easy although some may be hard, so please give it a try.

I think this is the best movie quiz I've ever done. It took hours between finding the right clues and then posting everything because I screwed up at first trying to post the clues side by side. You might have to guess if you've not seen the movies, but the clues should make the ones you've seen even long ago obvious. In fact, a lot of the clues are SO obvious they virtually spell out the names of the movies even if you've only heard of them.. Hope you all enjoy this one.
BUT REMEMBER: PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS IN A COMMENT, OR YOU WILL RUIN THE QUIZ FOR EVERYONE ELSE. POST THEM IN A PRIVATE NOTE TO ME, BUZZ OF THE ORIENT, AND I WILL REPLY WITH YOUR SCORE AND THE CORRECT ANSWERS.
16 is one of my favorite movies. cool quiz. I need to spend some more time on it later.
Fun quiz, Buzz. Thanks!
It's a shame more members don't take a pause from politics and have a little fun instead. Even those who don't do well or watch many movies enjoy playing. I welcome even those members who insult me and call me a shill and a propagandist who might realize that there is something in life besides Trump, Biden and China.
Indeed that is a great shame. Having said that, I can understand the heightened anxiety about what is happening relating to politics, the vaccines, lockdowns, the unknown of what will happen before and after the change over of Presidents, and how it is all seriously impacting our daily lives mentally and emotionally.
While the players of your Quizes may be few at this point, please don't stop posting them. There are still those of us who enjoy the chance to set aside our anxiety and test our memory and wits. (smile)
Buzz, I like the quizzes and I think I have at least tried all of them, but they are just not everyone's cup of tea. I made what I thought was a good and fun quiz and three people played.
On other forums topics like movie and tv, and sports, and food, are big draws. Here not so much. I think that would still be the case if Donald Trump didnt exist.
A few weeks ago I made an article about John Wayne for your movie group. I think it got one or two comments besides the couple I put up.
I think you should keep making the quizzes because you like doing it, but dont necessarily expect a lot of participation. Let it be a surprise if it comes.
I agree. I find the non-political articles that you and a handful of other members post to be very refreshing, fun, and relaxing.
I've welcomed them on my seeds as well and have learned to ignore their insults by not replying.
I hope that you and your wife are well.
So far I got 9 participants on this one, six of them doing better than 50% correct, which is really good. The only time I got a lot more was when I copied REALLY easy quizzes from the internet and almost everyone got 100% right - really no challenge at all. Your white-face quiz was actually pretty tough - I think impossible for those who didn't actually see and remember the movies, and even though I only got half of them right I enjoyed the exercise.
I enjoyed it.
Thanks for your good wishes, but we're fine - there is no danger where we are. I'm concerned however for my kids and friends in Canada and America.
Glad to hear it.
Still thinking. number 1 has me stumped
Well, at this point you're no longer stumped. Thanks for participating.
NOTICE TO QUIZ PARTICIPANTS
Nine members have submitted their answers but nobody was able to answer the 8th or 10th questions correctly. Correct answers have been achieved for the other questions. Therefore I have decided to replace questions 8 and 10 with clues for different movies. Please check the article to view those new clues for numbers 8 and 10, and I will increase your scores if you can identify those movies. Just let me know with a Private Note what your answers are for those two movies.
The answer for the original number 8 was The Thin Man, who drank a lot through the movie - hence the image of a very thin man and a lot of cocktails. Number 10 was Goldfinger - the gold bar was an easy clue, but the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach was where a lot of the original action took place and where the girl painted with gold was found, and I guess that was a difficult clue.
Sorry Buzz, even with the new clues I am unable to recognize what they are supposed to represent. But, it has been fun trying.
FINAL SCORES FOR QUIZ PARTICIPANTS
The tenth member has now submitted final answers so I will now post the final answers and announce the winners:
I think I might have mixed up the answers originally to numbers 8 and 10 but they are correct now.
Ten members played. The final results are: Tied with 15 for first place: Trout Giggles, Snuffy, Jasper. Second place with 14: Kathleen. Third place with 13 1/2: GregTX (answered "Julia" for number 6) followed by 3 others with 11 or better - the best group of results from any quiz I've ever posted, encouraging me to create another one which is almost finished. It will be the same format, but I had to dig deeper for movies so it will probably be a little harder.
Thank all of you for playing. I hope all of you enjoyed the challenge and will play again.
this quiz slipped my mind a few days ago, but I only had 10 of them...
What's wrong with 10 right? I only got 10 out of 20 on JohnRussell's whiteout face movie quiz.
Sorry Buzz, I should have tried.
I looked through them and only knew Clockwork Orange so I didn't bother.
You don't jave any fun by NOT trying. Now that you have seen the answers, have you seen whether you actually COULD have guessed more answers. I will be posting a new one soon, but it may be harder.
Yeah, I would have gotten Psycho.
I got clockwork orange and psycho too ... cool, another sick fuck. I won't be lonely.
I will remind you to play when I post the next quiz.
I only got a few right, some of the movies I never saw, so the clues did not help much. But, the ones I did get right were easily recognized.
It was fun to play, and a good exercise for my brain. I look forward to the next quiz.
I would've only got less than half right. Number 10 though should've had two possible answers, the "Bucket List" I would have never guessed, but the "Green Mile" made more sense with the bucket to wet the sponge for the electric chair and the coffee can for the prisoner with the gift of healing, only spelled with a "K".
Well, I thinik Green Mile is a bit of a stretch, but if you had seen The Bucket List, the Chock Full o' Nuts coffee can was an obvious clue.
You got MORE than just a few right. Next quiz will be posted within the next couple of days.
Ugh... I was the movie dummy. Oh well, it was fun anyway.
Not so - you just missed by 1/2 a point for being tied for third place.
