Title: guess the movie through the picture
Post by: mogwai on January 04, 2008, 07:55:15 AM
it's an easy game, just guess what the movies are through the picture linked below. guess by adding the number before the title of the movie in your answer, thanks.

i'm afraid you're both wrong. here's some clues:

1. a british movie from 1996. won three awards in cannes.
6. a indian movie from 2001. the reason the dude has an umbrella is because it takes place during a rainy season in that part of the world.
7. a french movie from 1991. mostly takes place on a bridge.

This is an awesome idea/game, but it's all based on who gets here first.

We should set up a playoff type thing where we have 8 or 16 posters and each has a screen-shot-off and the winner advances till there are only 2 left. Each round gets harder and harder with more and more obscure films and the last round is the hardest.

The winner gets something they can use like a fleshlight or some proactiv acne cream.

I always manage to get here late.

Maybe something like your system but instead of only so-and-so members we just PM answers by a certain time and have to get a certain amount correct to advance. Then again, that's bound to be a lot of PMs.

That's what I was thinking. Like you get 10 minutes to PM the person your answers and the person who gets the most right moves onto the next round. If they both get all 5 or 10 right then they get disqualified and banned from the site and told to go get a life.
