    Only managed to get 36...:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    On 46 at the moment.

    Some of them are so frustrating!

    *edit* On 54 now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    useless, 30/60.

    bet i can get the ones ye can't but can't get the obvious ones. always the way.

    where are the answers?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,829 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    44, but there are a few that i know what they are, just can't remember the name right now, or how to spell it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,195 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Got 55 / 60. Definitely did it before though.

    Most annoying thing is how to spell long-barrelled names of sequels such as
    14 (i'm nearly positive it's "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones" but do i put it like that or "Star Wars: Episode II etc.)
    .

    Couldn't get:

    - 58 (looks like
    "Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl"
    but it's not),
    - 44 (
    reminds me a Coen Brother's film for some reason.. am i close?
    )
    - 32 (
    this definitely looks familiar - thought it was Robocop or something similar
    )
    - 11 (for some reason,
    i convinced myself this was 'Educating Rita'
    :D)
    - 14 (as above..
    i know it Star Wars.. and pretty sure it's either Episode I or II but won't accept either
    )

    same problem


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    stuck on 53,40 and 32


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,195 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Cheers for them Trippie (57 / 60 now..
    somehow, i knew that was Hugh Grant in 11
    ) but best to spoiler them for the people who don't wanna know.

    Regarding yours.. here's some clues:

    53:
    To quote the scene: "what is this? A center for ants. It's needs to be.... at least 3 times bigger!"
    40:
    A classic Fratboy comedy of the early 80's.. and the name of a famous pig.

    And can't help you with 32.. i'm stumped!
