VIDEO Movie Contest #2 -- Sci-Fi Hits!

6801_discussions.png Just remember, in space, no one can hear your screams....

While my computer still works, I invite you to the next contest-- Sci-Fi Movie hits! 20 hits, each movie clip lasts from 10-15 seconds, but for one, which is longer... (I was cutting and pasting, and did my best!)

You can use the answer sheet attached, OR, make your own! Feel free to list your answers here-- there are no prizes awarded, As Yet.

How to play:

  1. Watch the video
  2. If you want, you can slow the video by clicking the stop button, until you're ready to start again.
  3. Write your answers on the answer sheet!

Answers tomorrow night, IF my computer works!

Good Luck!

Thanks for playing!!!

You know that Movie #5 is an oldie, but goodie, when Watermelons are on sale for $.04 per pound... What a hoot!

Hope you enjoy this! Smile.gif

I did this without bothering to cheat or look at any parts of it more than once, or pausing the video, lol, so not being the worlds biggest sci fi fan, I will fall short.

Hahahahaha! I did watch a few more than once... but I didn't cheat. Anyway, how can you cheat on a 10 sec clip? There is one I am not sure of... Mission to Mars. It's that orArmageddon... but I don't remember GarySinesbeing in that movie.

You did great!!! Almost 100%

Uh, think about 10...

I've been backing up the old computer all day, and can't do ANYTHING with it... It is barely working! UGH!!!

AND, I'm losing my mind with the new computer... Of course! 109.gif

LOL, John! What a hoot!

I tried to get a decent clip from Dune, and you know what? That is one sloooooow movie. Nevermind, as Emily would say...

Thanks for playing! Smile.gif

LOL, Mike! I thought that was a great movie!

Actually, I loved all these-- Even #10. The book was better though! Smile.gif

Dune is a painful movie. One of the few sci fi's that I hated, even if it did have Sting in it.

Well, I'm VERY frustrated because I can do nothing to get the next one ready... BUT-- I'm so glad you liked these! Smile.gif

One of my favorites (and the way we are going, we may get there yet) Soylent Green, Stargate runs a close second.

No joke! Soooooo slooooow. I found a clip of his hand burning up, and it took over 2 minutes for his hand to burn up. I mean REALLY. It wasn't something I could even cut and paste well! Oh well, there are plenty of others out there! Smile.gif

I love Soylant Green! I also love the Omega Man... which is what I amLegendis based on. Also notably missing was Gattaca, AI, Body Snatchers, Close Encounters, Star Trek, Star Wars, oh.. I could go on.

I had a real hard time with number 10 and I don't think I could solve it without cheating. I've looked at it for about the 5th time and nada.

John,

Number 10 isn't Them. Them is giant ants.

Dang Iar! You had to show me up!

Congo! D'oh!

And ya had to show off with the whole I am Legendhistory. Which was your favorite version? Mine is the Omega man since for that time and place, it had real sociological impact.

I've always been a big fan of Michael Crichton's books-- I really enjoyed Andromeda Strain, but wasn't as fond of Congo...

Maybe next time, we'll have a clip of the original Omega Man... Smile.gif

I'm working on ROMANCE.... Always one of our favorites! And I put up another story about Kentucky Oaks Day... When we used to go and watch the celebrities come into Louisville! What fun!

I hope you are doing great tonight! I'm still battling the computer, while Magnum is battling with the air conditioner. Oh well...
