Well, there is one I can identify. The rest? :(

Those aren't all sci-fi, are they? I think one is from Hidalgo, which I only know b/c it came up on my Netflix queue last week.

teenes | March 14, 02:22 CET

I could only guess two of them and don't want to sign up for an account to figure out the ones I missed. :( I feel like I lost a bit of my geek cred. Anyone know what the last picture is from? It looks so familiar.

I only got the whedon one (if there are more I didn't get them). I thought the last was aronofskyesque but was wrong. Go figure.

Is Hidalgo SF? I didn't realise.

giles (yes, it is my real name) | March 14, 02:30 CET

I believe the second one is from "Space Cowboys", and the sixth one is from "Back to the Future" Part 2 (The one with the fax that says You're Fired).

Not all of them are Sci-Fi? That explains why I didn't get most of them.

And nevermind, I think the last one is from Gladiator.

piggiesfly yay | March 14, 02:40 CET

15 points. Only got Gladiator, Twister and Serenity.

hitnrun017 | March 14, 02:40 CET

The first one is from Invasion, second from Space Cowboys, fourth Serenity, eighth Twister, and tenth Gladiator. Those are the ones I got. I'm amazed I got half of them!

I don't remember a three eyed dude from Starship Troopers. To be fair, I don't remember anything from Starship Troopers except for a whole lot of indistinct bugs.

TychoCelchuuu | March 14, 03:25 CET

Your spoilers in black don't hide themselves so good on the feed. I must now erase my memory so I can play this game fairly.

There. Hey, who are you people? Where am I?

Jim in Buffalo | March 14, 03:33 CET

I don't remember seeing Detective Lassiter with a third eye in Starship Troopers... hmm. You'd think I'd remember that, big Psych fan that I am.

This was really hard! Geez!

I did get Space Cowboys, though, which I think is a great nerd point for me.

nathanieletc | March 14, 04:12 CET

The third eye guy was only in it briefly in one of those 'Do you want to know more?' ads.

Katiger | March 14, 04:39 CET

Well, having been misled into thinking these were all supposed to be from Sci-Fi films, I only got three right. I thought I knew the Twister one, but I just didn't see how it could possibly be categorized as Sci-Fi so I left it blank.

Where exactly does it claim to be a sci-fi quiz? I must be terminally stupid.

chickenbird | March 14, 05:01 CET

I don't think it does claim to be a sci-fi quiz, just a movie screenshots quiz. Changed the link title to reflect that.

SoddingNancyTribe | March 14, 07:05 CET

Yeah, it's not a sci-fi quiz... that would be part of the confusion. I still didn't get the others anyway.

nathanieletc | March 14, 07:17 CET

Having only ever seen three of these...yeah, I bombed.

ShadowQuest | March 14, 09:22 CET

Cool quiz.

It's a little sensitive on the spelling though. I got "Back to the Future Part II" even though Ive seen that movie more than any other movie because I type it as "part 2" instead of "part II".

DarthMowzy | March 14, 09:46 CET

Damn... Serenity was the only one I got. The rest didn't even ring a bell.

dispatch | March 14, 13:46 CET

Yes! I got ten points!

That's...that's good...right?

UnpluggedCrazy | March 14, 21:16 CET

Sigh, all of them films from after my time...
