Can you guess the movie?
Here are the endings to 21 movies... who can get the highest score?

Good Luck!

* * * * *

1. He’s dead; that’s why the kid can see him. (0.5 points)

2. He’s not on a foreign planet; he’s back on earth. (0.5 points)

3. The butler did it… no wait… that short guy did it… no wait… there was no murder; the weekend was a sham… all major credit cards accepted… hold on… it was the cook!... okay I give up… (0.5 points)

4. He kills the bad guy and creates a breathable atmosphere on the planet… on the other hand, its possible that his entire adventure was a virtual reality experience (listen to what the technician is saying as he is being strapped into the chair…). (0.5 points)

5. He already found the guy and killed him over a year ago, but (of course) forgot about it. His wife survived the attack; he killed her… and he sets himself up to kill his ‘friend.’ (1 point)

6. The first 4/5 of the movie is a dream/imaginary world. She hired a hitman to kill her female lover, felt guilty, and killed herself. (1.5 points)

7. He wins the videogame competition. (1 point)

8. He killed the priest. He’s not ill or handicapped- he’s faking it. (0.5 points)

9. After his long trip ends, he learns that his new friend has no home or family to return to. (1 point)

10. The rooms are moving. Only the autistic man gets out alive. (1.5 points)

11. It was all a dream he had as he was dying in a medical tent in Vietnam. (0.5 point)

12. The hitmen stopped in the diner that was being robbed. (1 point)

13. Not only does he get his bike back, but a motion picture is made about his whole ordeal… an action packed, dramatized version, that is. (1 point)

14. Ape Lincoln!!! (0.5 points)

15. The boyfriends did it! (0.5 points)

16. Willy is freed. (0.25 points)

17. He wears cool clothes, uses cool gadgets, kicks the bad guys ass, saves the world, and gets the girl. (I don’t care how many movies you name… your only getting 0.25 total points for this one…)

18. Triple X is the Green Goose. (1.5 points)

Here are some harder ones… you might not guess these even if you have actually seen the movies…

19. Unfortunately, the second time around, he doesn’t get out of bed. (2 points)

20. Uhhh… the stadium, not the zoo… (2.5 points)

21. Its behind the mail truck. (3 points)

Planet of the Apes


3. The butler did it… no wait… that short guy did it… no wait… there was no murder; the weekend was a sham… all major credit cards accepted… hold on… it was the cook!... okay I give up… (0.5 points)

That comedy-mystery with Peter Falk as Sam Diamond, and Elsa Lanchester playing nursemaid to a wheelchair-bound Estelle Winwood who farts constantly. Uh... Murder by Death!

Although this pretty much applies to April Fool's Day, too.


4. He kills the bad guy and creates a breathable atmosphere on the planet… on the other hand, its possible that his entire adventure was a virtual reality experience (listen to what the technician is saying as he is being strapped into the chair…). (0.5 points)

Total (California) Recall


5. He already found the guy and killed him over a year ago, but (of course) forgot about it. His wife survived the attack; he killed her… and he sets himself up to kill his ‘friend.’ (1 point)

Nope, dunno.


6. The first 4/5 of the movie is a dream/imaginary world. She hired a hitman to kill her female lover, felt guilty, and killed herself. (1.5 points)

Bloody hell, I missed out on a lesbian murder mystery? There goes my toaster oven!


7. He wins the videogame competition. (1 point)

Well, it's not The Karate Kid...


8. He killed the priest. He’s not ill or handicapped- he’s faking it. (0.5 points)

Ed Norton... Uh, Not Final Analysis... Final Something? Fatal Something? Um, crap. Well, it's Ed Norton faking MPD, I can tell you that much.


9. After his long trip ends, he learns that his new friend has no home or family to return to. (1 point)

Harry and Tonto? No, that was his cat. Blast.


10. The rooms are moving. Only the autistic man gets out alive. (1.5 points)

Probably The Matrix or something other SF blockbuster that doesn't interest me.


11. It was all a dream he had as he was dying in a medical tent in Vietnam. (0.5 point)

Jacob's Ladder


12. The hitmen stopped in the diner that was being robbed. (1 point)

Pulp Fiction


13. Not only does he get his bike back, but a motion picture is made about his whole ordeal… an action packed, dramatized version, that is. (1 point)

Pee Wee's Big Adventure


14. Ape Lincoln!!! (0.5 points)

The remake of Planet of the Apes.


15. The boyfriends did it! (0.5 points)

You're thinking of Scream, but this also applies to Book of the Dead: Blair Witch 2.


16. Willy is freed. (0.25 points)

Now, gee, this is a tough one... How about Free Willy?


17. He wears cool clothes, uses cool gadgets, kicks the bad guys ass, saves the world, and gets the girl. (I don’t care how many movies you name… your only getting 0.25 total points for this one…)

Take your pick of any 007 movie, Austin Powers, and maybe Inspector Gadget (although I know nothing about the last one).


18. Triple X is the Green Goose. (1.5 points)

Beats me.


Here are some harder ones… you might not guess these even if you have actually seen the movies…

19. Unfortunately, the second time around, he doesn’t get out of bed. (2 points)

That IS hard.


20. Uhhh… the stadium, not the zoo… (2.5 points)

Uhhhh...


21. Its behind the mail truck. (3 points)

Ummmm....


I'm not even going to add up my points -- I did miserably, especially for a diehard movie lover (and one who owns a site featuring scores & scores of movie spoilers!).

Any chance of coming up with movies made before 1980?

Or would you like me to give it a shot making up a similar quiz?

Good fun, battleknight! Thanks for the teasers!
