So, all that said…here are our player totals! (As I began totalling scores, I realized some new point rules needed to be added. Going off my earlier rules, I created the following addendums. 1) If you know the series of movie the quote was from, but not the full title, you get half a point for the movie. 2) If you know the right character, but still miss the name, you get one point instead of two. 3) If you have the right character, but the wrong movie, it’s only worth one point. Clear us mud?)

Carl: 8.5 points
mrlanser: 11 points
Suzanne: 19.5 points
Lauryn: 22 points
Kim L: 14 points
Nathanael: 30 points
adam hannan: 9 points
Triton: 20 points

Tallying points got a little confusing, so feel free to raise a dispute if you think I mis-tallied your score! At this point, though, it seems I need to crown Nathanael as King of KnightOwl73 Movie Quizzes For Right Now! (Applause, please.)

Congratulations, and I hope everyone had fun playing (okay, stop clapping now). I’ll do this again some other time (and maybe I’ll pick slightly easier quotes!). Interesting note, though: the one quote that nobody guessed was the last one, from Dick Tracy. Every other quote was guessed at least once by someone. Nice work!

As always, and especially since I plan to do this again, I’d love your feedback, so let me know what you think (of the questions, the format, the points, whatever!).

That’s that…we now return to your regularly scheduled blogging.
