LordSlaytan – 8
jrs – 8
Caitlyn – 10
Ezikiel – 12
Revenant – 14
blibblobblib – 14

...which makes it a tie between Rev and blibby.
My tie-break question is:
Le Salaire de la peur was remade in 1977, who directed that remake?
Whoever PM's me the answer first wins.
Good luck.

Mmm... I love the original...!

Sorry, I missed your test. I've been away...

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.

The answer is William Friedkin, and the winner is blibblobblib.
Congrats, your up next.

I couldn't find the film, then it completely slipped my mind.

Congratulations Blibby.

Congrats blib....

Blib. Bloobb blobby blibb blibb blibblob bla? Blibb blobb blooo blibby blobby blob blobb.
