Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

Hmmm [suspicious] is this a trick shot Elizabeth? Is this a film within a film thing? A scene where someone's watching that on their screen right?

Fantastic shot, it was my signature for a while.


Damn it and I own Lock Stock too, my excuse I haven't watched it in some time.

I don't remember that. . .or I surely wouldn't have used it!

And I thought I was going to get another comment from you, Steve, about how many people on this board saw "Lock, Stock"!

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

Just checking in to see that y'all are still staring at the back of people's heads.

Although this one even I would have gotten right. I always pay attention to Steve's posts. The last screenshot, not a prayer and I've seen the movie a few times.

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

Nice sig shot Rich. Someone should start a caption game, the screenshot plus snippet of dialogue, or would that be too easy? I'm starting The Naked Screenshot after Elizabeth finishes her game, all nude shots, male and female from various films, you have to guess which actor and film the buttock or[STOP IT STEVE!]

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

That Lock, Stock... shot completely threw me!

This one looks like a big break, but I recall the last time this movie was in one of these contests, I accidentally entered the wrong movie title! Hopefully this doesnl't happen this time.

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

I'm flabbergasted. Wow it's over so soon? And I was just getting into my stride.

Thanks Elizabeth for a most enjoyable game! Doubly rewarding for me because most of the films you've been posting shots from aren't exactly my cup of tea. I think only three of the films here I've watched more than once, so beating these guys in this game was a bit of a shocker. Cheers.

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

Excellent. I'm only the third biggest loser of the bunch.

Thanks Elizabeth.


FWIW, I was thinking of doing a screenshot contest myself. It's been a while, and I was noting a few to use. If I do it, I'll post a link here before I actually start it.

Anyone who is interested in participating in another contest, please let me know in this thread. If there isn't much interest, I just won't take the time.

Take the time John

Thanks for the great contest, Elizabeth...wish it would have ran longer!

I'm still thinking of doing one of these myself in the future, I think I've found a way around the inevitable "I've never even heard of that movie" complaining.

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

Fantastic job, Elizabeth.

I've got a contest of my own put together, ready to roll it out tomorrow morning.

I PM'd JohnRice because he expressed interest in running one too.

Does anyone have an issue with more than one running at once, or should we do the one-at-a-time thing?

And don't worry - I already know that I'm MUCH better at running these than I am at winning them.

Jon

Dang -- I was just hitting my stride getting the final two shots. I'm always up for a screenshot contest, though, one-at-a-time would be best, I think. I'll check tomorrow for Jon's contest! Thanks for putting this one on, Elizabeth!

Re: Guess the Screenshot Challenge!

There was 21 screenshot from 21 film. I watched only 3 films. And I have 6 points. So... I can guess any screeshot from any of the films I saw. That means - COUNT ME IN.
