Ok, so we have all these silly games and trivia threads, what good is another one?

Who cares I'm posting it anyway!

The idea is simple, I will post 5 sets of hints about feature films from anytime in history, I will keep them contained withim 10 year groupings to make it a bit easier. Players gain points for each of 5 possible answers to the clues, please note, the first 5 players to answer all receive points on the scale below:

5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 points for the name of the film
5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 points for any main character (subject to my final judging on who was "main" or not)
10 - 8 - 6 - 4 - 2 points for the decade it was from
15 - 12 - 9 - 6 - 3 points for any award that the film won
40 - 32 - 24 - 16 - 8 points for the month AND year the film was originally released


The answers must come in to me as EMAIL to [email protected] I award the points to players as the answers arrive, so timing counts to some degree. you can send multiple answers in multiple emails, The first response gets the higher points and only the first 5 responses get any points at all for each item.

Game runs until I get at least 5 attempts at each movie or as long as I feel like leaving the game open =) its my game, I can be a dictator if I want =)

Without further adieu, game 1:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

1) Skeksis, Gelflings, Jim Henson

2) Mynocks, Frozen Tundra, people's favorite

3) 5 year coma, novel by stephen King, crime solver

4) Baseball, comedy, "breathe through your eyelids"

5) Winter sports sequences, Sunken spy ship, hero and heroine dragged by speedboat


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Good Luck!

I think I made the clues WAY too easy , but this is the first one =)

Remember, you can submit answers to all of them or just partials on them as well to earn points and only the first 5 correct answers for each segment get points!

AKA if you know the names of the others you can just send those and get points for the names alone or any combination of answers to each set of clues!

DOLA: Clarification, for the main character I want both the movie character name AND the actor/actresses name!

I assume googling isn't kosher?
