Time for a new one...

QUESTION NO. 6

Which action movies are hidden behind these anagrams?

a. A Law Red
b. A Clarinet Shoot
c. A Esthetics Lip
d. Damn Salting Ants
e. Bat Closets Youth
f. Ed Hi Twinkly Slow On Toot

Getting all 6 right gets you 3 points, 3 correct answers earns you 2 points, and anything less than that is just 1 point. And if you fail everything—just like you have every single time so far—you lose a point.

Correction—I missed an "s" at the end of Damn Salting Ants earlier. My bad, everyone.

2 - Jason Statham
3 - Vin Diesel
4 - Bruce Willis
5 - Van Damme
6 - Arnold Schwarzenegger
7 - Dolph Lundgren

I was thinking that it might be more rewarding if we awarded a bonus point to whoever manages to provide the correct answer first...🙂

Look, I get where you're coming from... it makes sense. But honestly, changing the rules right after we've already finished a round under the old ones feels pretty lame to me.

It’s gonna stay exactly like this.👍

Alright... let's get this show on the road...

ROUND 2

Rules stay the same as yesterday, except we'll be adding today's points to yesterday's total at the end of the day.

QUESTION NO. 5

We were all kids once, including those legendary action stars. Can you guess who these heavy hitters are in the photos below?

Just drop the number and the actor's name for each one. Getting all 7 right earns you 3 points; getting 4 or more gets you 2 points; 2 or 3 correct gets you 1 point. Anything less than that is a -1 point penalty, which gets deducted from yesterday's score.

NOTE: These actors aren't just members of The Expendables crew.

Just saw a fresh trailer for Monsters...

TRAILER 2

Hey everyone!

So, Day 1 is in the books. From what I can see, you guys absolutely crushed it. Most of the questions were either way too easy or you all acted like total geniuses. That last question was supposed to be a trap, but apparently, only the younger crowd fell for it, haha....
Anyway, like I promised, I'll confirm the correct answers first, tally up the scores for our players, and then we'll kick off a new round with fresh questions.
Let's go through them one by one...

QUESTION NO. 1.

Which 90s action movie title is hidden behind the anagram Emotional Mind?

ANSWER: Demolition Man

QUESTION NO. 2.

How many differences can you spot in the image below? It is super important that you DO NOT mark, describe, or mention them! Just find them, add them up, and write down the number. Tomorrow, I'll confirm how many there actually are and show where they are.

ANSWER: 8



QUESTION NO. 3.
Match the images from the Jason Statham movie list below with their corresponding titles listed underneath.

Here's an example of how to format it...

1 - Cellular
2 - Transporter

etc.

You need to match all numbers to all titles to get 3 points. If you get more than 6 but fewer than 12 right, you get 2 points. Between 3 and 6 gets you 1 point.

ANSWER:

1- Crank 2
2-The Bank Job
3-Revolver
4-Transporter
5-The Italian Job
6-Chaos
7-Death Race
8-War
9-Cellular
10-Transporter 2
11-Crank
12-Transporter 3

QUESTION NO. 4.

Which action star, who is also part of The Expendables cast, is in this picture, and which movie is it from?

A full answer earns 3 points, while a half answer—meaning you only get one of the two parts right—earns 1.5 points.

ANSWER: Jet Li in Lethal Weapon 4

And here is the current leaderboard and the total points collected so far. To clear up any confusion about why David Price5 got 4 points on Q1 and feralorca82 got 4 points on Q4: it's because they were the fastest to provide the correct answers. No one nailed Q2 or Q3 on the first try, so nobody picked up any bonus points there.

Contestant P1 P2 P3 P4

David Price5 4 -1 2 1.5 / 6.5
ruggedfox28 3 -1 3 3 / 8
feralorca82 3 3 3 4 / 13
rustyscout34 3 -1 2 3 / 7
lonesailor6 3 * * * / 3
briskhound2 3 -1 3 3 / 8
Andrew Roberts3 3 * * * / 3
fadedseal8 3 -1 * 3 / 5
silentbear49 3 3 3 3 / 12
xax233 3 3 * * / 6
La Familia 3 -1 * * / 2
Richard Bennett60 3 -1 2 * / 4

Matthew Wilson50 3 3 * * / 6
Matthew Anderson4 3 -1 3 3 / 8
gentlebadger88 3 3 3 3 / 12
goldenhound32 3 -1 * 3 / 5
Dennis Doyle3 3 -1 3 3 / 8
Kimi#1 3 -1 2 * / 4
cosmiclynx57 * -1 * 1.5 / 0.5
boldwalker2 3 -1 2 3 / 7
Richard Carter59 3 -1 -1 3 / 4
Christian Williams61 3 -1 3 3 / 8

Currently, feralorca82 is leading the pack with 13 points, followed closely by silentbear49 and gentlebadger88 with 12 points each.👍

Alright, here’s the last one for today. Since my brain is fried, let's go with this...

QUESTION NO. 4

Which action star, who also happens to be part of The Expendables crew, is shown in this photo, and what movie is it from?

A full answer gets you 3 points, while a half-answer—just answering one of the two parts—gets you 1.5 points.



Just a reminder... any answers submitted by midnight tonight will count, but anything sent after that is no good!

Tomorrow, I'll drop the answers to today's tasks, tally up everyone's current scores, and we'll keep the game moving...👍

goldenhound32 said:Haha, I’ve only watched one movie from this lot, so I think I'll pass on this question 🙂

Honestly... nothing's lost by giving it a shot... if you nail more than three, you get points again... otherwise, whatever.

But hey, it's your call...

ruggedfox28 said:Not even a single shot from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels 🙂

Well, damn... my bad... but this whole thing is basically an action flick anyway, haha😁😁

David Price5 said:Look, just stick to the first response. If there's an edit, even that one isn't worth much.

That's the plan...

Nothing else... here's a new one...

QUESTION NO. 3.

Match the images from the Statham movies below with their titles listed underneath.

Here’s how you’re supposed to format it...

1 - Fast & Furious
2 - Transporter

etc.

Match all numbers to all titles to get 3 points. If you hit over 6 but less than 12, you get 2 points. Less than 6 but more than 3 gets you 1 point.



Here are the titles:

Transporter
Transporter 2
Transporter 3
Crank 1
Crank 2
Death Race
Cellular
Revolver
War
Ocean's Eleven
Chaos
The Bank Job

rustyscout34 said:I get it, you can only answer a single question once. 🙂
I was just saying Caesar should probably just give an answer to that first question too. 😉

Exactly👍

My bad for not making that clear in my first post...

Obviously... Caesar can jump in with that first answer anytime before midnight... just like anyone else joining this sweepstakes later on...

rustyscout34 said:Write an answer for the first one too.
😉

2. - Throughout the day, I'll be posting a few tasks every hour or two—maybe 4 or 5 total. The deadline for all of them is midnight tonight, so new ones start up tomorrow. After that, yesterday's answers won't count anymore; we'll just use the points from the previous day to rank everyone for the new set.

Yeah... the deadline is the end of the day to answer any or all the questions... but that doesn't mean you can spam the same question ten times with different answers...

One answer per person for each question... just like a standard exam.👍

rustyscout34 said:hehe, you just take one away for a wrong answer and add 3 for a right one. 🙂

3. - Every correct answer earns you 3 BODA points, while each wrong one costs you 1 point. That applies right from the start when everyone is at zero. If someone messes up then, they go into the negatives.

I guess I'll give you a pass on this last one since I didn't mention there wouldn't be any corrections, so let's just call that the final word...

My bad... like I said, I'm moving fast here... making stuff up as I go, so mistakes happen.👍

Haha... honestly, I don't even know if I should trust these corrected answers anymore...

I think it’d be fair if everyone just took a good, long look at the image and gave me one final answer.👍

@Andrew Roberts3

Look... I whipped all this up pretty fast last night so... maybe I should've insisted on sending answers via PM... but honestly... it's better if everyone can see everything... plus... nobody's guaranteeing those answers are even right anyway lol😁😁

Also... like David Price5 said... there'll be plenty of different challenges coming... this one was just a warm-up hehe...

Anyway... moving on to the next task...

QUESTION NO. 2

How many differences can you spot in the image below? It is extremely important that you do NOT mark, describe, or mention them! Just find them, add them up, and post the total number. Tomorrow, I'll confirm how many differences there actually are and point out where they are.



PS. Thanks to the admins for the pinned thread👍

Consider this an open invite for everyone else to join in on the fun...👍

Here’s a message ruggedfox28 accidentally sent me via PM by mistake:

ruggedfox28 said:Demolition Man (1993)

I'll drop the correct answers to today's tasks tomorrow, right before I post the first one for the new day. That way, everyone can see if they actually nailed it or missed the mark...

By the way, the answers are public... keeping everything above board and avoiding any shady behind-the-scenes stuff... so definitely no answers via PM.

Just take your best shots, guys—post the answers you think are right.👍

Also, just so nobody thinks I'm messing around here... I'M NOT. This game is legit! The movies are already ordered; we're just waiting on the winners now...👍

Hey movie buffs and action junkies! Listen up—one of the most hyped action flicks of the decade is hitting theaters here in the States very soon: The Expendables! It’s an absolute powerhouse directed by and starring Sylvester Stallone, who basically assembled the ultimate dream team of action cinema. He’s actually managed to bridge the gap between the legends of the old school and the heavy hitters of today. On the veteran side, we've got Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Gary Daniels, Eric Roberts, Mickey Rourke, plus some cameos from Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Then you have the newer muscle led by Jason Statham and Steve Austin, along with a couple of newcomers to the genre: MMA fighter Randy Couture and the massive Terry Crews, who most of you know more for his comedy stuff.
We’re just missing Van Damme, Steven Seagal, and Wesley Snipes to complete the old guard, but hey, it's still a killer lineup.
To celebrate this release, I’m putting together a little action-themed sweepstakes. Anyone can enter (except me, haha). The sweepstakes kicks off today and runs until midnight this Thursday, right before the US premiere. I'll probably announce the winners on either Friday or Monday. I'm heading out for a quick shoot this Friday and won't be back until Monday, but if I can snag some Wi-Fi, I'll try to post the winners ASAP.
I'm footing the bill for this one myself, so here is what's up for grabs:

1st PLACE - 3 Sylvester Stallone movies (Blu-ray)



2nd PLACE - 2 Jason Statham movies (Blu-ray)



3rd PLACE - 1 Jet Li movie (Blu-ray)



Alright, here are the rules...

RULES

I put this together pretty fast, so bear with me if there are any hiccups. Here’s how it works:

1. - There will be a variety of challenges: simple trivia, anagrams where movie titles or characters are hidden, picture rounds, and maybe even a puzzle or two.

2. - I'll be dropping a few challenges here today—maybe 4 or 5 total—every hour or two. You’ve got until midnight tonight to get them done. Once tomorrow hits, we start fresh with new tasks; any old answers from yesterday won't count toward the new round, they just help set the baseline.

3. - You get 3 POINTS for every right answer, but a wrong one costs you 1 point. That goes for everyone right from the jump, even if you're starting at zero. If you mess up early on, you'll find yourself in the negatives.

4. - Plus, there's a 1 BONUS POINT up for grabs for speed. If you're the first one to nail a new challenge, you grab those 3 points plus the extra bonus.

5. - Once Thursday wraps up, the window closes. I'll tally everything up and announce the winners. If there's a tie, I'll come up with some way to break it... but we'll cross that bridge if we actually get there.

Let the games begin... good luck, everyone.👍

PS: Admins, it might be a good idea to pin this thread to the top of the movie subforum so more people actually see it.👍

By the way... there's something else coming out soon... pretty sure it's by the same author...

New poster basically saying we all gotta adapt...
