Sorry again!

On Quiz 24 I had a problem with answer #1. I was including a word in the answer that is acutally not in the title (I thought it was, and so the quiz tested out fine for me...). Ugh.

Anyway, it's working correctly now and I hope you're having fun taking the quizzes.

P.S. Quiz 25 will be postponed 1 week since I'll be on vacation.

Had a real life Burnt Bulb experience with Whatever Works. For about 4-5 minutes we had no image, just the sound of Larry David.

From the reviews sounds like it would have been better the other way around. See the image but make up your own dialog. I like Larry David, though, so I'm hoping it's better than the reviewers suggest.

I already did sequels... actually, I did one where they were all "part 3".

I've got a quiz coming up that for musical movies (if not musicals, at least they deal directly with music in some way).

Thanks for your suggestions!!!

Oh, yeah, on westerns, there aren't very many good ones (in my opinion) and they kinda run together... so to distinguish them you have to give the most obvious part of the movie, which then makes the quiz a bit too easy...

come now ... doesn't have to be ALL madea ... you could throw in a little "Ernest goes to ..." to mix it up.

i'm thinkin an all scream quiz ... not wes craven "scream", but sounds of screams. signature shrieks. maybe mix it up with signature creepy laughs. (laugh, scream, and cry)

remake quiz has potential.

"planes, trains, and automobiles" ... 3 each ... 3 train movies could be hard to compile.

what about a 6 degrees theme? someone from movie 1 is in movie 2 ... so on and so forth ... 9 degrees in the case of your quiz.

I really don't understand how you guys do it. I thought this week was TOUGH, and yet two people already got them all. How do you figure some of these out. Man... You're good.

I enjoy the burnt bulbs -- Although one of them this week is killing me.... Might have to wait for clues this week to get all 9

What sucks is having to re-enter the answers, especially when you don't remember the order they were in, so you listen to all the clips again. Much easier to get a perfect on Thursday :-)
