I think that would indeed make Feer the winner, but it would be great to see if he can figure out the last one, too.

Hey I've already done two now, I thought I'd let you take a stab at it. If you would like though, I will do the next round, I'm just giving you the option.

Darn, that was supposed to be the tricky one. I thought hockey would throw everyone towards D2, and Miracle.

Lyr, I wanted it to be D2 but I didn't think Olympics would be a keyword. Junior Olympics maybe.

I just checked, D2 only has six keywords, two of which are a form if "Iceland" and none of which include Olympics. Phooey.

7. Dick Tracy? I have no idea if there's any breaking of the fourth wall in that, though...

Breaking the fourth wall is a reference to the non-existant fourth wall, you know there's three walls in a room like on a sitcom, and the fourth wall is where the camera and the audience is.

So breaking the fourth wall is when someone talks directly to the camera, or makes a reference to knowing that the show or movie IS a show or movie.

There was a scene once on Fresh Prince of Bell Aire when Carlton is upset because he thinks they don't have enough money and Uncle Phil says:

"My money makes money, relax, we're rich!"

Carlton - "Hey, we are rich!"

Will - "We so rich, how come we ain't got no ceiling?"

Then the camera pans upwards to reveal the set lights.

7 is not dick tracy.

I was tapped out, so I used the method mentioned previously in the thread to narrow it down. Couldn't have done it otherwise, as I [didn't see one] of these movies, [and am too dim-witted to remember that I've seen the other twice] [Blushing] .

(Also, might "9. Choking, Father Son Relatioship, School Board, Doctor" actually be "9. Choking, Father Son Estrangement, School Board, Doctor"? I can't make it work otherwise.

Then again, I am not sure I am doing it right, anyway.)

Oops, it may very well be.

I'm willing to call this round a wash and whoever wants to pick up the next one can do so.

kojabu and CT, if either of you wants to, we'd apprecite it [Smile]

And I'll give you the last two answers if you want.

Field of Dreams was one.

The other was "The Mask."

I declare kojabu the winner.

Shhh! I declare a winner!

Did you guess Field of Dreams fairly or did you look it up? Theoretically if you didn't look it up then it's a tie.

Otherwise yeah Leonide wins.

I'll admit it, I just want someone to post another round!

Since Leonide isn't currently available, how about a quickie? 10 relatively straightforward ones, but no special perks if you win -- for fun only.

1. Elderly, Heist, Death of a Friend, Casino

2. Wedding Veil, Title Based on Song, Profanity, Japanese

3. Cult, No Dialogue, Misery, Cloud; Koyannasquatsi, Lyrhawn

4. Hitman, Neo Noir, Psychiatrist, Female Nudity

5. Fight the System, Revenge, Secretary, Fantasy

6. Surreal, Orrery, Puppetry, Good Versus Evil

7. Monkey, Transformation, Childhood Friend, Elephant Gun; Jumanji, Nighthawk

8. Human Becoming Animal, Wolf, Castle, Crossbow; Ladyhawke, Nighthawk

9. Understanding, Obsession, Child in Peril, Psychiatrist

10. Amnesia, Paris France, Locker, Fugitive ; The Bourne Identity, kojabu
