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!

I have had experience with that before too Babsr, the questions should predominantly be about the movie, maybe one or two exceptions dealing with actors and who they played. Questions should be answered, Do I need to see this movie to know the answer to this question? You can gather info about who played who without knowing the plot. But try to stick to plot oriented questions.

Thanks, Spaudrey - I kinda figured that. Since I've got major stuff on my plate for the next couple of weeks, I'll sit this out for now, but I will check back then. If it's still in need, I'll take it...

Am I able to take the Greatest Show on Earth?

I see I'm a year late but I'd like to take "The Great Ziegfeld".

If Tiffanyram wants to give up ""Grand Hotel", I'll take it.

There's no problem having two quizzes on any movie! Only the first one submitted here gets to complete the challenge, however.

Better late than never, Gentleman's Agreement quiz is online. I was looking at the non-claimed choices and none are streaming on Netflix. I suppose I'll have to watch through another medium.

I was just looking through the Master List and I think there may be some omissions. Cimarron (1931), Hamlet (1948), and 12 Years a Slave (2013) seem to not be on the list or have a quiz on FunTrivia. Hamlet has a movies subcategory but the quizzes are on different versions of the film, not the Best Picture winner. Can someone verify these not being on FT or the list above?

"Cimarron (1931), Hamlet (1948), and 12 Years a Slave (2013) seem to not be on the list or have a quiz on FunTrivia." I have had a look, and I don't see any quiz on those three, either. They should be added to the list, which will give us more fodder for the quiz mill.

Triviaballer, I've had very good luck with the public library for movies that can't be found otherwise. You might want to try there.

I will be taking 12 years a Slave. Lots of quizzes to do now for me, better get started. Is this the final list or more movies will be added?

One per year.

"Triviaballer, I've had very good luck with the public library for movies that can't be found otherwise. You might want to try there."
Absolutely, I've found some great classic movies at the library. I went today and unfortunately they only had "The Artist" there of the movies on this list. There's always Amazon Prime too. I wonder what the next entry to the list will be. I'm hoping "The Martian" or "Bridge of Spies" but I haven't seen three of the Best Picture nominees yet.

I'm expecting 'The Revenant'.

If it's the Revenant I will definately do a quiz on that on top of 12 years a slave. I am calling it first.

Make sure to start working at the quizzes you have claimed already; you have more quizzes claimed for Lounge challenges than you've ever placed online, and no quizzes submitted in the past two years, so three's a bit of concern.

Well, looks like our Best Picture is here.
Perfect timing for a TRIC Y point. ;)

Bummer, "Spotlight" was one of the three nominees that I haven't seen and it won't be on Redbox until the end of March.

I'll take Spotlight.
