GAME (2 of 3): Guess An Upcoming Twilight Time Release (1 Viewer)

[BPullen]

My guess....The Horse Soldiers?

MGM/UA, Ulysses S. Grant. No relation to the other clues. Another must release. Let's pray Nick collars the Duke and drags him to Blu.

Guys,

Over two years ago, The Horse Soldiers was released on BD from MGM/UA through Fox. I seriously doubt TT will release it again.

 

[Martin_Teller]

The fun WILL return tomorrow. That's a promise.

This seems to imply that any of this was "fun" at some point.

It probably is for some of us, but not everybody.

Just wanted to pop in and clarify.We had NO clue it would get sabotaged and guessed so easily so I was genuinely unsure if I was supposed to end the game or not so I was pretty much tap dancing until Ron made the call to end it.I congratulate the game master this round for finally making things impenetrable

Agree Ted. As frustrating as this round has been, no previous game host has been able to stump this crowd* for even 1/2 day, much less 3 or 4. So good on Bruce for that. However maddeningly obtuse it's been at times, at least it's engaging...as any riddle-based game should be.

FWIW, I've asked more people at work about the career of Joe Eszterhas and refs to his movies than I would ever have imagined mere days ago...

* as well as at least 2 other 'obliged-to-hate-everything-about-it-but-lurking-anyway' sites.

I agree. The clues have been frustrating, but that doesn't mean they haven't been fun. I think he's doing a really great job doling them out and playing fair with answers and follow-up.

If some of lads aren't having fun, you're welcome to leave the game and take your balls with you. HAHAHahahhaHA!!

Good point. I normally cross index guesses with prior Blu releases. I didn't in this case. Thanks Robert.

Last call for questions. Don't forget about the 1 and 1 everyone. I gave yesterday a pass. Discussion of the game is fine. Within in reason. I appreciate the kind words. I really do. The point of fun is an important one. Let's see what we can do.

 

[Ronald Epstein]

I just wanted to quickly pop in here after reading some of the comments....

I am sorry to hear some of you no longer find this "fun."

I was tearing out what little hair I have over the fact that, time and time again,
this game was ending within an hour (or few) after it starting.

I personally asked Bruce to run this game because he promised me that he could
make the clues very obscure and keep the game running longer.

Now maybe the clues were too obscure for some of you -- and perhaps for the
next game we will be starting shortly -- we could make the clues somewhat easier.

However, I think it serves us better to keep this game running for as long as we
can giving many users multiple opportunities to deal with clues that aren't overly
obvious.

In The Heat of the Night

A superb choice. An Academy Award winner, a Grant in the film, something most of us want. A great guess. But no.

Has the lead actor won any academy awards or been nominated for any?

 

[BPullen]

To make up for yesterday, I give you two.

Clue 1: The Grant of the 20th has a cameo of sorts.

Clue 2: Joe Eszterhas comes again.

Clue 3: The man who chopped the lady gets unflattering treatment.

Clue 4: A player from a New World production starts over with Cecil B’s delight. E

Clue #5: Reitman directed a remake. Sorta. A subplot is near identical.
Minus some modern touches.

Clue #6: One of Q.T.’s “victims” was considered. Casting wise.

 

[BPullen]

Note: Excluding 4, every clue is its own deal and doesn’t comment on the others. This is where many of you “got lost in The Flood.” Each clue is a separate piece of trivia. Now 4 is a group of clues relating to the same thing. The letters are another trail. Those clues are a bit more vague which you discovered yesterday. I may not post them now. I haven’t decided.

 

[schan1269]

Oh, God...

Don't let it be Six Days, Seven Nights.

 

[Noach Kowalski]

Clue #5: Reitman directed a remake. Sorta. A subplot is near identical.
Minus some modern touches.

Ivan Reitman...right?

 

[BPullen]

The question chosen was asked by SWIFF.

Has the lead actor won any academy awards or been nominated for any?

Yes. The lead did win one. And yes, the lead was nominated. In fact, expand your question.

 

[Powell&Pressburger]

Some have complained on other boards over the game I'd like to say while the clues aren't easy, I don't mind. Knowing the title isn't going to change the release date for the title so what ever title it is we are just having fun until it gets released.

I am really stumped on this and really asking myself does this sound like a movie I want? lol I think once we know the title it will all make sense.
