Well, it's been over a year since our last Trivia Newton-John contest. I attribute its hiatus to my own laziness as these contests take a lot more time than your average post. But, it's been a while and we've got a lot more readers than before, so I must admit I'm curious how things'll go with tens of thousands of readers.
The folks at iCanvasArt.com have decided to provide the prize for the winner. Their place is literally bursting at the seams with cool stuff for retrophiles like myself. I encourage you to pay them a visit - by doing so you are not only increasing the chances for there to be future contests, you also might just fall in love with some vintage art!
Visit their Facebook page as well.
Go there now. God's speed.
Okay, so what do you get if you win? You get a 27" x 19" Reform Girl movie poster valued at $191.98 with free shipping. It's no ordinary poster: it's stretched canvas, stapled on a wood frame and ready to be displayed right out of the box. Tell me this won't look damn good on a wall. Daddy like.
CONTEST RULES:
Below are 16 movie posters - all of them have been cropped and the movie's titles have been changed. Your job, if you accept this challenge, is to determine the correct movie titles.
1. The titles must be in English
2. The winner will be the first to get them all correct; if no one can get them all correct by the end of the week, I will award the first person who got the most correct.
3. Send your answers to me at 123rerun@gmail.com. You can provide all the help and answers you like in a comment, but the winner will be chosen from an email submission.
5. Number your answers 1 - 16.
On your mark, get set,.... GO!

Wow, I recognize only 3 of the posters and have only seen one or two of them. I'll do my research and see what I can come up with.
ReplyDeleteThat lucky mailbox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought you were referring to my email mailbox which got totally pounded today..... but then I thought, "Why would you care about my Inbox?" Then I remembered the picture at the top of this post.
DeleteI'm a little slow on the uptake.
The hell with the "correct" movie names. Gilligan's are PERFECT.
ReplyDeleteUnbelieveable responses!!! I am both in awe of my readers' prowess and troubled by it. Many of you out there (like myself) were probably scratching your head at a lot of these posters, wondering if there was anyone out there that could get all of these!
ReplyDeleteWell, amazingly enough, there were a number of you who got all 16 correct. However, the prize goes to the one who got it first.
The winner is........ Guy E. Gerhard!
Guy, I will be sending you an email soon. Great job!
Thanks to all of you that took the time to give this contest a shot. Hopefully, we will have many more opportunities to come.
Thank you! I will have to find the perfect place to hang it. And thank you, Gilligan, for such an entertaining blog.
