It's been a while since I posted anything even remotely meme-ish here on the .org, and, well, my brain's so fried from working on projects so hard recently that I've been having trouble coming up with stuff to write about. Besides, even though I couldn't participate due to my own lack of movie knowledge, Don seemed to have a lot of fun when he did this on his blog recently, so here goes with the rules ...
- Go to IMDB.com and look up 10 of your favorite movies.
- Post three official IMDB "Plot Keywords" for these 10 picks.
- Have your friends guess the movie titles.
- Your guesses must be posted to the .org entry to count. If you're reading this via syndication, click on the link at the top of this entry to make sure you leave your comments in the right place.
- NO CHEATING by going to IMDB yourself or googling or anything like that.
(Now over -- Don guessed number 2 right, no other correct guesses posted.)
1. Heist, Unsubtitled Foreign Language, Lovers Posing As Siblings. (A Fish Called Wanda)
2. Jive, Inflatable Doll, Hare Krishna. (Airplane)
3. Based On Comic, Magic, Computer Virus. (Oh My Goddess! The Movie)
4. Gay Slur, Racial Slur, Chess. (Blazing Saddles)
5. Taco Bell, Miss America, Urban Renewal. (Roger and Me)
6. Mistaken Identity, Speech Impediment, Police Raid. (Monty Python and the Holy Grail)
7. Chicago Illinois, Sushi, Title Spoken By Character. (The Breakfast Club)
8. Post September 11 2001, Colonic Therapy, McDonald's Restaurant. (Notorious CHO)
9. London England, Piano, Young Boy. (Madame Sousatzka)
10. American Abroad, Gangster, Independent Film. (The Young Americans)
Some of these are probably gimmes, I know, but like I mentioned recently, I'm not particularly that much of a film person. Anyway, post your answers here and I'll keep the post updated with the correct answers as they come in.
Don, you got Airplane, but those first two keywords for #8 do not show up for Super Size Me. Come on, just look at the juxtaposition of those three keywords and it should become more obvious ...
I cheated on #8 (and I won't spoil it for everyone else), and having never seen the movie in question, there no way I would've gotten it.
But even you have to admit Super Size Me kinda fits...
