Posted March 13, 20169 yr Welcome to what I believe is the 13th round of Movies Family Fortunes hosted by yours truly. I'm sure you all know how this works now but as we've had a few rounds of pointless I will remind people that THIS IS FAMILY FORTUNES NOT POINTLESS and the aim is find the MOST popular answer you think others will go for to gain points. I've not picked a specific theme here, but I have avoided things like Star Wars, Oscars, Disney, Superheroes etc. as these have been covered in previous quizzes so some freshness can remain. Some of these may require a bit of thought and may be lacking in an obvious answer, but there's nothing a quick Google search can't fix, you tell me if they're too hard :angel: 1. An animated film released by Studio Ghibli 2. A film directed by Steven Spielberg 3. A famous movie animal that is not animated 4. A film in which the villain/(s) wins* 5. A ‘final girl’ in any Horror Movie 6. A film that was, or still is, banned in the UK 7. A film told in a non-linear narrative 8. An iconic film quotation 9. A film considered amongst the best of all time 10. A film considered amongst the worst of all time *I'm aware this can be interpreted differently, so please feel free to include any explanation as I'll be using Google/wikipedia as a basis here! So get your thinking heads and best pair of shoes on and please PM me (chart wizard (or Chez Wombat as this name may not be lasting much longer)) the answers by 20th March 11:59PM, I'll hopefully do the results the next day. May the odds be ever in favour and Dame Helen Mirren guide you all the way ;o Players: Chez Wombat Joe jsilv Regina bipolar angel hotchoc26 Dobbo Ultraviolence1989 burbe Mack princess lotti richie SamJudd Iz Jahq Jonjo harryflynn0908 Edited March 18, 20169 yr by Chez Wombat
March 13, 20169 yr ooh yay excited :D on quick glance at the questions this will be a very interesting one :o Edited March 13, 20169 yr by princess_lotti
March 14, 20169 yr Oooo, some very broad questions here. Going to be a difficult one to answer :( Can anyone explain to me what a 'final girl' is? My lack of horror knowledge is really showing :drama:
March 14, 20169 yr Oooo, some very broad questions here. Going to be a difficult one to answer :( Can anyone explain to me what a 'final girl' is? My lack of horror knowledge is really showing :drama: I had to look it up too to be sure and apparently it's the last woman left to fight the killer. These questions are really great!! I think I'll be confident on one top answer, but these require a proper think.
March 14, 20169 yr Oh thanks Jahq, no idea how I'm going to think one of those up but I'll start searching now :P
March 14, 20169 yr I have subbed ^_^ Nothing too difficult, although maybe #2, #8 and #6 especially were needing a bit of thought :thinking:
March 14, 20169 yr i actually had a go at this myself, (and don't think i did too bad at all!) struggled coming up with 2, but eventually thought of them
March 14, 20169 yr Author Re: Final Girl, I'm using Carol Clover's definition of the last girl alive to fight the killer/threat, there's one in pretty much every slasher movie ever ;o One question currently has a different answer from every sender (including myself), this is gonna be fun :magic:
March 14, 20169 yr Ah but does the "final girl" fighting the killer have to be a requirement? Like, do they have to succeed in fighting the killer or...
March 15, 20169 yr Just submitted mine, don't think I'm gonna do well on this one, but fingers crossed.
March 15, 20169 yr Author Ah but does the "final girl" fighting the killer have to be a requirement? Like, do they have to succeed in fighting the killer or... It's not a requirement, it's just normally what happens given they're the last one standing that the threat hasn't got yet, it normally has to happen for the story to end (your answer is fine btw from what I can see, not that wrong answers matter in FF ;o) 13 players so far, keep em coming ^_^ Edited March 15, 20169 yr by Chez Wombat
March 16, 20169 yr First movie FF I've entered, as I feel I've been able to give a good answer to all the questions, good work Chez. Well, aside from one, I'm sure the quote one will be a mess, so I've gone for a timeless one that probably won't get nearly as many people answering it as they should.
March 19, 20169 yr Author Bump, just under 30 hours left, let's see who I need to stalk :thinking: Still very much wide open, and one question still has over ten different answers.
