I've got about 17 that I think are good to use, but I'm having trouble deciding if they're too hard.

Some are really quite easy, and I think there's a little bit of context in each. Of the 17, 8 are animated, 9 are live-action. I think 8 out of 10 is going to be too hard, well assuming you're just doing it on your own. I think I'll go with 10 out of 15, and maybe lose one of each.

Sounds great Luke...
I'm useless at these comps, but I may as well ask:
Are non-US residents forbidden from entering?

Cheers & keep up the good work...

Didn't you enter the last one? Anyone may enter, but the prize will be a Region 1 DVD.

See, there is a benefit of the studio not providing discs to giveaway. No limitations on selection, no limits on who can enter, no specifics to the design of contest.

The negative is I pay for the prize with money that should be going to some education fund or something like that. :p

Since I'll be buying from Amazon, international customers are encouraged to piock a cheapie title to cover the additional shipping costs. I'm just kidding. Anything will do. :)

Okay, it's up. Too hard? Too easy? I have no idea.

Can the few of you who are on right now just give it a look see and let me know if it's particularly, overwhelmingly difficult? I want as many people as possible be able to win, but at the same time I want it to be fun, so I did a mix of very easy, moderately challenging, and kind of challenging ones.

Once I get a few "okay"s, I'll put the link up on the front page.

I did enter the last one, just want to make sure - I know how expensive international shipping can be.

Thanks, Luke. I'll check out the page now.

It all looks good, if that is what you were asking.

As for difficultly, I must admit there is a few I don't know, but I've seen very few live action films. And I wouldn't know one Mighty Ducks film from the other (or care to actually).

But that's me...I don't think I know enough to enter (although it is 10 out of isn't it?), but everyone else here has scary knowledge...
I think it is just about right in terms of difficultly levels for the avergae fan though.

Looks great!

Thanks. 12 out of 17. Might lower it to 11, depending on what people enter, but try and get as many as you can.

(And it's best not to drop little hints, ya know. :x :wink: :roll: )

Okay, since someone already got more than enough right and no one has issued any complaints, I think I'm just going to go ahead and set it off.

Good luck to all! Hope it's fun. :)

Luke, how does this work... is it like a random drawing amongst those who've answered enough to make them eligible or is this contest based on whoever is able to answer the most correctly in total?

Anyone who gets at least 12 right is entered into a random drawing. So it doesn't make any difference if you get 16, 15, 13, or 17 right.

So far, I tend to think I erred on the side of caution, since a number of people have already gotten them all (or most *cough*MMB*cough* :)) right.

I don't want this to be very difficult for any of you, and I think even if you just look closer at the captures that are befuddling you, it could help.

It's kind of fun, right? Right? Smile and nod, please! :)

Sent in my guesses. I had real trouble with 2 or 3 of them, but I'm pretty sure I got at least 12 right.

Will a person who gets more than 12 right have a better chance of winning than someone who only submits the required 12 (I only sent in 12)?

Read 5 posts ahead of yours. Or the short answer: No. ;)
