The Cinema Taste Test!
So, here is how the game will work. Kong will post a list of 20 films, and you folks guess wether or not you think Kong liked or disliked the film. Kong will then come back tomorrow and give the answers. Whoever gets the most correct answers will take over and make their own list of twenty films for people to guess at.
Hopefully this game will catch on. It should be interesting, and will help us learn everyone else's tastes in film. Here's the list: The French Connection The Recruit Kids Shanghai Knights Hard Eight Welcome to the Dollhouse The Thing The Apostle The Spanish Prisoner Speed Jurassic Park The Hours Ghosts of Mississippi Independence Day The Insider The Great Mouse Detective A Few Good Men Ali Ghost World Moulin Rouge Answer "D" if you think Kong disliked it, and "L" if you think that Kong did like it. |

They both got 13 of 20 right. Kong figures that Hondo333 should go next since his post came before Beale's. |

So close.......:( :bawling:
Oh well. I loved a bunch that you disliked, least of which being The Great Mouse Detective, my personal favorite animated movie. But Hey! To each his own. (Again compliments Kong on the great idea for a game). On the Thing, that was the 1982 version, correct? And I too liked the Recruit. The first half was brilliant, (or at the very least, very enjoyable). The second half started downhill and ended with a so-so ending. I'd still give at 2.5 out of 4 though (that is for me, the minimum for a good movie that I liked, and thus a movie I consider good). |

Dang! I came within one both times! But since LordSlaytan has proclaimed me the default winner, I'll accept.
I'll post my list this afternoon (pacific standard time). I have some errands to run :D |
God damnit!!! Ok, next one I'll do better... But I will have to applaude Lord for picking ten L's and ten D's. What do you say about making this a rule??
|
I was thinking that every five-10 turns a person can still participate, but if they win in that amount of time, the win doesn't count. My idea. I put this to Kong to decide because he started the thread.
|
Okay, Ladies and Gents, here's ten L's and ten D's (not in that order ;) )

Kong isn't wild over the 10-L, 10-D rule, but we can run this like a democracy and let the majority rule. Personally, Kong would rather have a more flexible rule on the amount of likes and dislikes each person can have on their list. Maybe no less than 40% of x (L or D depending on your list); this would mean the lists could end up being 10-10, 11-9, or 12-8. What do you guys think? |

I was planning on messing everyone up with an all L list....but alas.... |
Also, I think that it should be illegal for someone to guess all L or all D....because it's cheap......and tempting......so if someone doesn't set a rule......I might have to do it.......

That's part of why Kong isn't crazy for the 10L/10D rule. When the quantity of each option is known for certain, the strategies of winning end up revolving around statistics rather than good old fashioned fun. The smart thing to do in a 10-10 system is to pick out 3 or 4 films you are almost certain the person liked and answer L for those, and then D for the rest. That will guarantee a score of 13 or 14 which is often enough to win. So, to prevent this kind of boring strategy we can do two things. (1) Add an unkown element by limited but not strictly setting the amount of L's and D's each person can use when making their list for people to guess at, or (2) control the answers by limiting or setting how many L's and D's someone can use when guessing. Kong likes the first option best because it seems to give the most leeway to both the quizzer and the guesser.

AHH...after a long and enjoyable weekend...i have come back to post my results...
Eyes Wide Shut------L Freddy Got Fingered--D Tora Tora Tora-------L Sound of Music-------L The Score------------D Planet of the Apes (2001)----L Amadeus--------------------L Harvard Man----------------D Crossroads------------------D Poison Ivy-------------------D A League of Their Own-------L Half Baked-------------------L Kramer vs. Kramer-----------L Devils Advocate--------------L Lora Croft: Tomb Raider-------D Star Trek: Nemisis-----------D The Graduate----------------L Philadelphia------------------L Now my calculations are (and I hope i didn't mess up) Fox-14 Hondo-14 Minion-13 Mark-13 Aniko-12 Slay-11 I figure since Fox posted before Hondo he is the Winner...but i am not the one in charge. |
hmm...no, you have got it slightly wrong moviefan. The person with 13 points and name begins with 'M' and ends with 'inionTV' wins, I think. I'm not sure.... :babbling:

Wow...Fox...your first time in this game and you win. Congrats...you crafty thing...and it's good to see you playing. :yup:

Fox doesn't seem to be showing up, so someone should go.
