Albino Rover Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 So this year's nominees have been announced. Those of you yet to send in answers this week, grieve for the appropriate length of time about the snubbing of Inside Out, then send them in before midnight on Friday.

Rugster Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 How many rounds are there Albino? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 How many rounds are there Albino? The previous film quizzes have been 20 or 25 rounds; demand-permitting we can do something like that again I said in the OP that this quiz would be a "marathon", so maybe 26 would be appropriate.

Ira Gaines Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Not sure how well I've done here. Couple of ones where I've possibly guessed well, one which I'm pretty sure I haven't. Only four in which I'm confident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Separation 5. The Accidental Billionaires 6. Best Original Score 7. Robert Downey Jr 8. No Country For Old Men 9.

Loki Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Well I have had a guess at four others. Three of my guesses are quite obvious I would have thought, with one shot in the dark based on previous questions posed by the quiz master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I took a real hard look and can guess one. To be fair, I think it's a good guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kebab Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Think the trick is to look at it more as a general knowledge type question rather than to fixate on the actual dates, it should help you more!!! If you look at the locations, some of them are screamingly obvious!!! Then again I may of got it all horribly wrong!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killienick Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Well, that was tough! 3 of them I've hopefully got the right answer based mainly on their nationality and rough age so they are complete guesses. Only 2 of them I am I sure about. Please can we have a comic book movies round or a sci-fi movies round so that I can at least get a decent score for once before the normal, ritual, humiliation?!

Rugster Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I think I've done ok, 4 I know for sure, two I couldn't even guess, the rest are educated guesses based on where born, where died and age when they died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I now have two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
