Can I get Partial Credit for getting LOTR? That would bring my GPA up to at least passing!
In my defense, I fell asleep on ALL THREE of the movies and it would be just so, so unfair for me to be held to account for not recognizing 'significant scenes.'
I mean, even Cartophiliac had the same wrong answer, and you know how famous he is!!!
1. LOTR: Two Towers (Best of the 3 movies!!)
2. About a Boy
3. Skip (and who the hell cares? I hate mel...)
4. Ice Age
5. My Big Fat Greek Wedding
1. The Two Towers--part II of Lord of the Rings.
2. No idea.
3. No idea, part II.
4. Ice Age.
5. My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
man, I'm gonna stink this one up...
1 Lord of the Rings...and it should be the second one, The Two Towers, though who knows if it really is since they divided the movies in weird places...
2 I think that's the movie where Hugh Grant is not the prime minister and not entangled with Julia Roberts...so, About A Boy
3 Yeah, yeah, the aliens are in the cornfields...but I have no idea what the title is...maybe it's Aliens in the Corn

@Elaine: Mel Gibson was only in cryonic deep freeze in Hamlet.
@Yank: The Two Towers ruined Christmas for you? How the hell did THAT work? Also, is "(The first on I believe by the year)" some sort of crazy BritSpeak?
@snowgirl: Hi, snowgirl!
@Elizabeth: I can see where you would have got this image confused with the other 2002 Mel Gibson hit, "The Hershey Kiss Family Reads Bedtime Stories." I hope you don't think I was tricksy for picking an image that could have gone either way.
@Karin: "LOTR dreck"? I'm curious as to why you thought so -- even noted curmudgeons like myself tended to allow that the LOTR movies were not nearly as bad as might have been expected.
@Elaine: Pull yourself together, Elaine! It's unseemly to grovel!
@Mrs.5000: "Ratz." Nice.
w00t!
