Linked below is an Excel file containing a movie quiz. There are 60 pictures of movie scenes and you have to guess which movie the image is from. The twist is that the actor(s) in each picture have been made invisible.

Let's see who gets the highest score... (I'm stuck at 30 so far.)

Very cool. I'm at 20, working my up slowly.

I spend entirely too much watching TV and movies - I got 40 so far.

I've made it to 34. I pretty sure I know what #54 is, but it doesn't accept any of my entries. I've tried multiple variations, too.

I know what #37 is but it does not take any iteration of what I give it...

Funny thing is...some of the ones I have right, I have never seen the movie...

Try adding spaces - they both worked for me but I had to fiddle with them a bit. The formula in the spreadsheet is very literal - if there is one space missing, it shows up wrong. I pasted them again and made sure the spaces were correct. Everything between the quotes should work. There are two spaces after the colon.

#14
"Star Wars - Episode II: The Attack Of The Clones"
#54
"The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring"

** NOTE: When I previewed this post, the BB software compressed the two spaces after the colon to one. That's why it didn't work.

PS Anyone ever try the '80's music quiz a few years back?

Assuming I have those two correct I have 47. Btw 58 requires a comma.

I have been called a pop culture slut in the past.....

I guess script-kiddie humor isn't as funny here as at Slashdot. Ah well

And number 5 requires an exclamation point. If these are the actual scenes from the movies, it is damned impressive how they managed to bring the backgrounds out.

IMDB does come in handy for getting the sticking points...

Impressive - I've gotten 42 - I don't think I've seen the rest of the movies. BTW if AP:Int'l Man O Mys.. refers to No.7, it's a one word answer.

Just hit 40. Don't think I'll get much further, though. I wonder if we have them all between us.

Wow, this is a serious stickler for titles. #44 I knew right off the bat, but had to futz around to get the title it actually wanted. Up to 48 now.

I just put up my list here. I set it up in a new thread to avoid accidental spoilers.

I have 49 so far.
