As promised, here is the movie quiz for you all to have a crack at. The best score handed in by our local quiz team was 277.

The rules are very simple: Watch the video and write down the titles of as many films you recognise the stills from. There are 300 films titles to find. Numbering won't be a problem as each image is numbered, so you can't lose yourselves.

There are two versions to view. A YouTube version and a downloadable version. I recommend you download the zipped up WMV version from THIS LINK and play it offline. Not only is it a slightly better quality version than the YouTube one, but it will be easier for you to pause/rewind etc.

The YouTube version can be viewed here: MOVIE QUIZ

There is an interval of just under 2 seconds for each image, so I recommend you hit the pause button after each picture to jot down the movie title.

I'll keep this quiz open until next Monday, July 2nd.

I went briefly through the clip, I think I can recognize 10 or 12. Should I bother sending in?

10, maybe

Another 6 minutes of my life wasted on the youtube clip, I know 5 for definite, another 2 I think I know, but not sure of full film title, as for the rest of them, I recognise some clips but could not tell you what film they are from, not a film buff Embarassed

I thought 70%-80% of these would be fairly easy to get. I guess I watch too many films for my own good Embarassed

Umm isnt there 2 from the same film? ( or is one a sequel Wink

)

The same film may appear twice, and maybe there is a sequel or two Wink

First score just in: 253

I've obviously spent too much time listeing to music, and not enough watching movies. I've got about 20 on the first run through, and I'm not expecting to get much more on a second viewing Shocked

I'll give this one to my better half I think!

I stopped on number 60, because I only knew two Laughing

I am not a big movie person, so I knew I wasnt going to get many.

I think I ended up around the 90 mark, but got distracted on Monday so couldn't send through my results. I need to watch more films...

@IWM - Congrats and you should demand Shiver buys you wine for a week. But I don't know if he wants to pay out 10,000 or more......
