Name That Movie For 2/13/18

Five movie stills to test your cinema knowledge!

Think you know your movies? We’re back this week to accept that challenge and give you some movie stills that are sure to stump! Remember: we’ve updated the rules ever-so-slightly so you’ll want to check those out before sending us your answers.

 

As always, check out our leaderboards later in the week to see how you did.

Here are the rules!

1. Guess the movie correctly on the first try and get the full 5 points, with a potential for 25 points per week. Guess correctly on the second try for 4 points, with the potential reduced to 20. Subsequent guesses reduce the potential of each right answer after that, with a guaranteed minimum of 1 point per correct guess.

 

2. Submit answers by messaging our Facebook Page or by emailing us at athpodcast@gmail.com. You can answer in the comments below, but it’s visible for all to see and you might give away the answers!

 

3. Points will be tallied on the leaderboard at the end of the week and can be found HERE!

 

4. The rules will be revised and perfected over time, and we will honor the player should any dispute arise.

Let’s do this!

Five movie stills to test your cinema knowledge!

We’re always looking for ways to make our weekly movie game interesting, and this week is no exception. We’re updating the rules ever-so-slightly to give you the potential for more points, but also more of an incentive to guess right the first time. Now, if you guess the movie correctly on your first try you get the full five points. Guess correctly on the second try, you get four points, and all the way down to 1 point. Guess first or guess last, it doesn’t matter. Just gotta guess correctly. Think you know your movies? Give these five stills a spin!

Hang On a Second: We Are the Problem

A few weeks back I saw the wonderful film Lady Bird with my wife and a friend.

 

All three of us were totally swept up by the performances, the script, the directing, and more than anything, the incredibly well told and convincing story.  As the lights came up, the audience started to stir and grab their coats (an action I find pointless in LA, you don’t need coats here ya bunch of wussies) and the conversation I overheard boggled my mind.  The room wasn’t even fully lit and the man in front of me started saying, “That was good, but doesn’t hold a candle to Three Billboards… yadda yadda yadda.” I’ve overheard this conversation many times but this was the first time it really stuck out to me.  Mostly because the movie we just saw addresses this very instinct to react to something the moment you’ve experienced it.  In the very beginning of the film Lady Bird and her mom are listening to an audio book, and when it ends Lady Bird goes to turn on the radio.  Her mom stops her and asks, “Can we just sit with what we’ve heard for a moment?”  I rolled my eyes and laughed with the audience, but I think there may be something to that.
