Paj! Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 http://www.empireonline.com/crypticcanvas/ Similar to one Virgin did with bands/artists, this is a game of "spot the movies". Plus you don't have to do it in one sitting. Currently on 35/50. Wacky variation in difficulty/obviousness. Don't post too many spoilers!
or else you will DIE Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) i got three Edited May 30, 2009 by or else you will DIE
dan-likes-trees Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I hate you for posting this. Not what I need with A levels next week. On a rather poathetic 13 thus far, I can do better
Paj! Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 33 thus far, no help whatsoever. Stuck completely on the group of adults and children near the middle, the knight and the one that screams obvious, but I can't get, the king and the sharks. And obviously others too.
D_prOdigy Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I was most proud that I got the one that has the bell diving into the pool...
Paj! Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 I was most proud that I got the one that has the bell diving into the pool... Really? I thought that was really obvious... In other news, I gave up and looked up the answers. To my credit, they were all films I'd never seen, except 1, and after you finish, it mentions how intentionally hard it was.
Eenuh Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) Heh I've only managed to do 22 so far, really find some of these very hard to do (and probably haven't seen most of them anyway). =P Edited May 30, 2009 by Eenuh
D_prOdigy Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I'm on 24. I should be studying. Really? I thought that was really obvious... Well I thought The Dark Knight and Scream were both obvious too...
jayseven Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 i'm on 38 and the rest are all really, really annoying me. I have no idea about the book mince/shredding just yet. The king/sharks are two separate ones, in case you were bamboozled too much by it -- I haven't got the king one yet. lol. just got the family one. Well, one of TWO! Doi.
Cube Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I can only manage five of them. I'm completely stuck. Edit: six....and more.
Noodleman Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Got 49, looked up the last one because it was doing my head in. What an utterly shit clue, never would have guessed it in a million years.
jayseven Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 damn I was hoping to be first to win :P on 41, getting the odd eureka moment. WILL NOT QUIT.
Paj! Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 i'm on 38 and the rest are all really, really annoying me. I have no idea about the book mince/shredding just yet. I semi-facepalmed myself at that one, but then, it's a misleading clue in a way. Got 49, looked up the last one because it was doing my head in. What an utterly shit clue, never would have guessed it in a million years. I'm pretty sure I know the one you mean!
jayseven Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Yeah, the book woman thing was a proper WOOOO moment when it clicked I love these things. Feeling utterly lost now, though.
Paj! Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) Did anyone else see the music one Virgin (think it was them) did a while back? Never completed it, but it wasn't set up to be played. Otherwsie exact same premise. I'll try to find it. EDIT: In this one I find Gorilaz U2 Led Zepplin Pixies Nirvana Eagles Rolling Stones Hole Garbage Guns'n'Roses White Snake White Zombie Smashing Pumpkins Matchbox 20 Spoon Alice In Chains Blur Radiohead Iron Maiden The Doors Kiss Green Day Scissor Sisters Television? Eminem? Postal Service? Edited May 30, 2009 by Paj! Automerged Doublepost
Noodleman Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 42... Which one did you not crack, Noodlemeister? The 3 women who are beating up the person on the floor.
dan-likes-trees Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Did anyone else see the music one Virgin (think it was them) did a while back? Never completed it, but it wasn't set up to be played. Otherwsie exact same premise. I'll try to find it. EDIT: That one was a bit brilliant. I seem to remember being less rubbish at it than I am at this films one... I'll refrain from trying again though, too addictive. Up to a still not that impressive 20 on the films... a few suddenly clciked which are stupidly easy.
Eenuh Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) Couldn't sleep so I decided to do some more. Am now on 37. I thought of one of them while doing other stuff tonight, and suddenly it just clicked in my brain, heh. Am really quite stuck on the rest now though. Starting to annoy me, heh. *might try some more* Edited May 31, 2009 by Eenuh
jayseven Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 The 3 women who are beating up the person on the floor. Awesum, not just me :P Turns out I was misspelling the pirate one (doi!), so it's a 43 for me. Not giving up YET! It's a background tab for the rest of today.
Dan_Dare Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 got it working. This is ace. Proper Hard too- though guessing the instruments by the wall produced a full on 'Hoorah!' from this typist.
GothicPlague Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Watching a film on BBC One last night which gave me the answer to one so I'm up to 18 now. Not doing too well.
Tellyn Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Watching a film on BBC One last night which gave me the answer to one so I'm up to 18 now. Not doing too well. Likewise... I'm on 23 and have decided to give it up, I doubt I've seen a lot of these.
