Posted July 26, 201510 yr http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Media/Pix/pictures/2011/5/19/1305807381694/POINTLESS-007.jpg Hello! The movies forum is finally getting in on the action. Everyone should be familiar with the format by now, we are looking for the LEAST popular answers (whether that be because the answer is genuinely obscure or a lot of double bluffing). Here are your ten questions: 1. Name a movie that has won 'Best Picture' at the Academy Awards since (and including) the year 2000 2. Name a movie from either the Lord Of The Rings, Twilight or Hunger Games franchises 3. Name a movie that Meryl Streep has received an Academy Award nomination for 4. Name a cast member who appears on the poster for Love Actually 5. Name a movie that has topped the UK Box Office in 2015 6. Name an actress who was nominated for a Razzie this year* 7. Name an actor who has played James Bond 8. Name a movie musical released this decade 9. Name an actor or actress who appeared in all eight Harry Potter movies 10. Name a song on the 'Mamma Mia! The Movie Soundtrack' CD *Golden Raspberry Award Some of these questions have quite a few options to choose from and everyone could be lining up for a 'pointless' answer, some of these (eg. #7) have more limited choice because that's fun too. I'm going to set an initial deadline of Sunday 2nd August, 23:59 but this may be moved back if I need to force extra people to enter :) The first person to submit answers will receive mine in return so that I'm not accused of rigging :coffee: (EDIT: that person was Dobbo) Lights.

July 27, 20159 yr So I have sent ha. It was pointless (:manson:) to try to find the pointlesses in this one. Either I'm no longer good at finding them or I'm just doing them too quickly :lol: although I considered attempting one for #4 but that would take an embarrasing amount of time to do, and I would risk getting it wrong anyway :lol: As always my main tactic is to get them all correct at least, but that didn't really work in the last Lounge quiz as I only got one wrong with reasonably average scores yet I missed the top 30 :snif:
July 30, 20159 yr Author Updated the list of participants in the first post, 14 including myself so far so I'm happy with this turnout. :D Hopefully manage to get a few more in I'm now due to be working late on Monday so results should be happening on Tuesday evening.
August 3, 20159 yr Answers sent ~ I went for the technique of going for my favourites in each category (wherever possible). Hope it pays off! ^_^
August 3, 20159 yr I entered earlier but did it quickly so just went with some random answers to avoid thinking too hard on it. Let's see how it goes because there's no pressure to do well unlike the Lounge~
August 3, 20159 yr Author We've hit 20 participants now :cheer: Excited to work out the leaderboard and find out who the winner is and who, by extension, the 3rd movies mod is going to be :o
