As soon as Chris Moe's current contest ends, I will be starting a new one....... with some twists. The main twist is that each shot will be taken from more than one movie. In fact, with all the TV shows available on DVD, some of them may be from TV shows. Some may be a mix of movies and TV shows. Some will have color movies changed to B&W. Many will have the color scheme changed to make the different elements work together well. Some will have large, easy to see elements from different movies while some will be small and difficult to find. I can't say what the maximum number of movies in one shot will be because I haven't completed all the images yet, but I already have one with 6 movies in it. The good news is it will be very easy for virutally anyone to get at least a few points in this contest. The really good news is, the real competition will be particularly difficult. Google should be of absolutely no use and I am hoping there won't be any clear leaders day to day like in the previous contests.
This is how I plan to score the contest.
1 Point for getting one movie right.
3 Points for each other correct movie.
5 Points for each other correct movie, when 3 or fewer people got that particular movie.
1 point deducted for each incorrect movie.
A warning. I may include more than one element from a particular movie in a single image, just to throw people off. In that case, participants should only name that movie once or they will be deducted 2 points.
No discussing how many movies are found in an image until the answers are revealed.
If this sounds confusing, it will be a lot clearer once the first image is posted. I haven't decided if answers will be by PM or email, but in either case, it will be a link in the picture.
I will post one image each weekday. No images on weekends. You have until the next image is posted to submit your answer. The answer must be complete. You can't add to it later.
Back on Monday with the first image.
