Thank you? Baloney. Thank YOU. Very much fun. Bye!

Awww shucks. Really, a lot of the pleasure was mine. I didn't say 'the pleasure was all mine' because that would be a little assuming, don't you think? Implying you all had zero pleasure, and I know that's not true. :)

But yeah, these were fun. I'm so glad it caught on.

And really, these guys are just too good, and it went fast. If I didn't know the answers I doubt I could have gotten more than 50 percent of them!

Why don't we just erase the answers and do the same ones again?

These have been good fun.

Thanks!

By the way, bonus points (not like there were really points. Oh, did you think I was keeping score?) for noticing my red herring. It's in one of those five threads. ;)

I've completely missed two rounds, so I'm going to come right out and say the 1980s game will have Ghostbusters for G.

It's depressing because I knew the 80s the best, the 90s less so, and shockingly few of the 2000s. I need to get out more. Or just turn on Netflix more, maybe.

I think it's partly a difference in how we interact with the media. I tend not to have videos or dvds with the picture on the front. I just stream or download. You don't get the same iconic imagery at the front end of the experience.

There were so many times that I would walk into Blockbuster and stare at those movies looking for something that might be good. So many of those boxes are etched into my memory. But I haven't been into a Blockbuster in maybe 10 years. So the last 10 years of movies aren't etched the same way.

Clodfobble 01-14-2012 07:13 AM

Maybe. But a lot of the pictures weren't even cover art or ad posters, they were just iconic shots from within the movie itself.

Would be kind of cool, though, if you were going to open a movie theatre, to blow up all the individual letters to framable size and decorate the whole place with them.

I spent the late nineties and early 2000s going to the cinema 1-2 times a week. My group of friends when I was married were all avid cinema-goers and the majority ruled re what we went to see.

After that, the Evil Ex was an indiscriminate film watcher and we probably watched 2 DVDs a week as well as going to the flicks.
Also I saw trailers for many more films than I actually watched.

So despite not thinking of myself as someone who is interested in film, I have built up a reasonable bank of knowledge.

I'm pignorant of pretty much anything after 2007 though.
