Subject: The Best Picture Challenge - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Nov 03 14

Howdy! Maninmidohio has alerted me to an issue we seem to have. The Oscar for Best Picture is an important one, yet we don't have quizzes for each one. As such, this challenge seeks to solve the issue of the missing films. We need quizzes specifically for these movies!

Technically yes, but you do want to make it apparent to the player what the quiz is about.

I recommend avoiding anything too crazy.

"I recommend avoiding anything too crazy"

Not a problem for me. Now Salami on the other hand...the mind reels. I haven't recovered from "My Kingdom for Borscht" yet :O

I've just completed my first 15 question quiz for "Going My Way'. I'm waiting to submit it as I have one already submitted.

Coming back to the Lounge after a long absence. Hoping to get back into quiz writing after two years of changes! I'd love to take Gigi if it is available.

I couldn't think of all the ten questions. So, please make the title 'Gandhi' available for all again.

Thanks for announcing my quiz, Jmorrow.

Sorry it took me so long to finish it. Real life has been busy lately.

I confess to being slightly disappointed... I came into this thread with great expectations. Dashed!

Still, might I suggest an idea that one of the 'powers that be' might like to pursue in some way... a challenge for the quiz with the best pictures.

Hey guys, I'm afraid that life has me really busy right now. I'm trying to write in FunTrivia but it's getting a bit hard and I have too much on my plate right now. So if anyone wants to go ahead and claim "Birdman" please do, lets say I'm unclaiming the title. I have never done this before nor I like to do it but I'm currently unable to write this quiz. Thank you! ;)

Ok, so time has gotten away from me, and I can't believe it has already been five months since I claimed "Grand Hotel"! I have not forgotten, but real life has been in the way. I was worried that mine would be holding up completion of the challenge, but I see that many titles are still unclaimed. I will try and get this done in the next couple of weeks. I have to procure another copy or rent it, though, since my copy seems to be missing.

Does the quiz have to be on the plot of the movie, or can I do it on the principal actors and their role in the film? I can easily come up with ten interesting questions on ten of the actors for The Great Ziegfield. Well, not easily, but there are a number of connections within the movie itself, and other interesting connections outside the movie.

Babsr-- I would drop a line to one of the Movie editors specifically. I'm sure there would be a place for your quiz regardless, but the approach might shift the focus a bit and need different categorization. Ideally, I think the challenge needs to keep the films in the forefront since we're trying to fill the gap of having no content for them.
