It's BAAAAAAACK!

Lock Jaw 06-18-2010 04:49 PM

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

Ermaximus 06-18-2010 04:56 PM

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

thedamndest 06-18-2010 05:32 PM

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. :-\

thedamndest 06-19-2010 01:22 PM

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.

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

The Mackem 06-21-2010 08:57 AM

adfgasigduyagf!!!

Jeritron 06-21-2010 09:06 AM

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.

thedamndest 06-21-2010 07:40 PM

That's what happens when you look off someone else's paper.

thedamndest 06-22-2010 09:33 PM

Remember 48 hours is the cut off.

Lock Jaw 06-22-2010 09:38 PM

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.

Challenge 3 was Stripes.

Lock Jaw 06-24-2010 10:17 PM

Can barely see anything in this one at all.

thedamndest 06-24-2010 10:19 PM

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.

Challenge 4 was The 'Burbs. I got a lot of guesses that made sense but were not The 'Burbs.

Challenge 5 was Jesus Christ Superstar.

parkmania 06-29-2010 01:12 PM

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

PorkSoda 06-30-2010 11:41 AM

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.

thedamndest 06-30-2010 10:47 PM

Have to make it more challenging or Jeritron will run away with it.

Jeritron 06-30-2010 10:59 PM

I'm not sure about this one. I'll meditate on it
