	Simply magnificent. Deserves to get a very, very high rating.

	That picture is awesome, but I think the quiz could be improved. Many people can just type in all the best picture winners and not even know the picture is up there. It would be awesome if you selected like 20 or 25 of them and made a separate answer-in-order per picture quiz.

	it's Mutiny ON the Bounty not Mutiny OF the Bounty, Lawrence of Arabia not Lawrence of Arbia, and Schindler's List not Schinder's List

	anne_kennedy:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 17:24 GMT		1 point
	It's Cimarron, not Cimmaron. Otherwise, great quiz!

	Squinta:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 17:40 GMT		1 point
	I wouldn't call any quiz a 'great' quiz that has four errors out of 84 answers (3 spelling errors and the wrong word between 'Mutiny' and 'the Bounty'. Clean those up, however, and you might get yourself a 4-globe rating...

	NoraCharles:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 18:11 GMT		2 points
	Sorry for the typos! All fixed. Thank you for all of the feedback!

	Puzzgal:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 22:07 GMT		9 points
	I agree with MovieGuru. You should chop up the picture and force the answers in order based on the statuette. That would make a REALLY great quiz.

	BonnieH:	Feb 21st, 2013 at 14:23 GMT		1 point
	A very clever idea but yes, too many for one quiz. Years and statues are really hard to see (to the point that I didn't even "get" some of them) and I had to scroll up and down and back and forth and finally just gave up. Tweaked, this could be several great quizzes.

	The statue's face makes them all look like "Metropolis."

	shine:	Feb 21st, 2013 at 18:13 GMT		1 point
	I hope someone makes a new statuette for whatever wins on Sunday.

	I'd give this six bulbs if I could. Five for the quiz, one for those creative images of Oscar. Although, I don't get the Beautiful Mind one.

	Keryl:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 01:22 GMT		2 points
	@UndeadChimp, I think it's because John Nash surrounded himself with imaginary people. Frankly, I don't get the one for The Sting. Maybe I need to see it again?

	jmb:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 20:23 GMT		2 points
	The Sting is brilliant! The sly nose-tap gesture the gang used to identify each other. Though it kinda looks like the statue is dabbing at a tear.

	debbiedoesnothin:	Feb 24th, 2013 at 09:11 GMT		2 points
	The picture's so big I can't see it all on my screen without scrolling, and the years and statues are too small for me to make out much so I just named all the best pictures I could remember. MovieGuru's advice was right on the money IMO.

	Keryl:	Mar 2nd, 2013 at 16:27 GMT		1 point
	Thanks, jmb! I remember the movie being brilliant, but I couldn't figure out why the base was dotted like that. Any further insights?

	shine:	Mar 5th, 2013 at 04:33 GMT		1 point
	@Keryl the base is poker chips.

	Olly Moss does incredibly good work, and even at this size, alas, you can't see the detail of the pictures. I hope it this goes front page that fewer statues are shown in more detail. If you want to see more of his work, I made a slideshow-format quiz of his silhouette series a couple of years ago: http://www.sporcle.com/games/rockgolf/gathering_moss

	IT's a great poster, not that greeat of a quiz because I'd just gueess the best pics without looking
