Huzzah for being back! Feel like I know this one, but can't quite place it from that blur-fest.

So many things in that screenshot are making me think of multiple things.

I can still see that you called me an asshole, G. You can delete the post but you can't delete my feelings.

G
06-19-2010, 12:02 AM
Yeah, I wanted to say something like that and how you copied me, but I tried twice and it just didn't come across how I wanted it. So I deleted them and moved along. :-\

I think I will include a rule update so that will allow animated shows like Simpsons in the mix. It would be "Identify the Episode" but it would only apply when specified. What do you guys think?

parkmania
06-19-2010, 09:43 PM
With there being 20 seasons of Simpsons alone - not to mention all the other animated shows, I think that might be a whole competition on its own.

When you're a spy, getting off to a good start is crucial to winning games. Challenge 1 was Burn Notice.

Jeritron

I have never actively watched an episode of Burn Notice, but somehow I recognized that. It just felt right.
Perhaps I subconsciously recognized it from a commercial, or an episode that was on my television after I left it on USA after Raw, or something.
Or perhaps I just recognized the visual style and scenery.

Perhaps I experienced flashes of my future that involved watching that episode of Burn Notice, and I've repressed them as dreams, but in reality I'm remembering what I will one day experience.

thedamndest
06-21-2010, 12:23 PM
parkamania changed his answer from Burn Notice to Touched by an Angel. I would like an explanation on that.

parkmania
06-21-2010, 05:31 PM
Had a regular come in to the store while I was looking at the thread mention that the car looked just like the one from Touched by an Angel. Since I was just going to use Burn Notice as my default "I have no bloody idea" guess, I went with TbaA.


EDIT: Also, I'm really deflated that I had it right the first try.

Remember 48 hours is the cut off.

Ugh. I KNEW that I had seen challenge 2 before. I could picture it quite well... but could not picture anything around it.

Ermaximus
06-23-2010, 01:37 PM
Ohhh, ffs now #2 makes sense. Fucking Danny you asshole. Stealing your dad's wallet. DICK!!

Thed, I'm on the board now though. :D

parkmania
06-23-2010, 06:14 PM
I'm on the board with #3. Had to double check myself because I had it narrowed down to 2.

Maybe that's the point of the scene. Or maybe it's a terrible picture. You decide.

Jeritron
06-24-2010, 10:24 PM
Jeritron looks right at it and sees a third point

parkmania
06-25-2010, 08:58 AM
I almost said Spies Like Us for #3. Similar movies (at least in my mind) from a similar timeframe.

Drat! I had the movie with the life story of that OTHER guy born in Jerusalem - Brian.

GOD! I don't know any of these.

Rev. Hallowell
06-30-2010, 02:44 PM
I've seen #5 so many times, I knew immediately what and when it was.

I would have gotten #2 if I found this game earlier. The rest I have no idea.

Triple A
06-30-2010, 10:41 PM
Damn. The only movie I have even seen so far is TMNT.

This one's been bugging the crap outta me for 2 days. I know I should know it, but it's just not coming to me. Submitted a best guess, but am getting antsy about finding out the right answer.

Drat. I was really hoping my guess was right that time.

Damn, would never have got that if you hadn't said. Very confident on this one though.

RoXer
07-13-2010, 11:49 AM
Fuck that, I should have 2 points.

If you're going by 48 hours from the post, then you should put the new challenge on that 48th hour. It takes a whole day to tally up those 6 guesses?

Either that or allow guesses up until the new challenge.

RoXer
07-13-2010, 11:51 AM
