	I always find myself typing the stupidest things at the end of quizzes when I can't think of anything else. Case in point: "Hunt for Red October", even though it A) Didn't win a Best Picture, and B) Came out in 1990. I think I'm just looking for a bonus answer to make fun of me.

	For some reason, I think it's sad that you didn't describe The Hunchback of Notre Dame as a novel by Victor Hugo

	"Shows, movies, and ect."? Unless "ect" is an acronym that I don't know, probably you mean "etc." And in this case, it is "shows, movies, etc." (without "and"), because the "and" ("et" in Latin) is already included in the abbreviation "etc."

	Puzzled that "humble" wasn't accepted for "to make someone feel ashamed and foolish." Ah, well.

	Thanks for the publish Sporcle! @dancastro: I will email Sporcle to see if they can fix that. Thanks.

	Hurt Locker won the Academy Award for Best Picture at the 82nd Annual Academy Awards. That award show was held in February, 2010. So while the Hurt Locker may have been released in 2009, the award wasn't given until 2010. The Academy doesn't follow a strict Jan-Dec calendar. You might rephrase that to lessen confusion. Thanks.

	I'm surprised that University of Connecticut has the same mascot as University of Washington.

	Great Quiz

	chiefyratain:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 18:15 GMT	1 point
	Definitely should have a better clue for Hunchback, other than that fun quiz with a little something for everyone

	@bethc111...they mean Huckleberry Finn...

	"Hummingbird" is not a species but rather the common name for the family Trochilidae. The correct response here is "bee hummingbird". Perhaps you could change the hint to something like "Family to which the smallest extant bird species belongs".

	No "Hunger Games". Sigh...

	The clue "provoke laughter and provide amusement," calls for a verb as an answer. The verb "humor," however, does not mean those things. To humor, when used as a verb, means to indulge someone for the sake of soothing or being agreeable. (e.g., my wife humors my absurd wishes). I think if you changed the clue to "It provokes laughter and provides amusement," you would be correct in using humor as the answer.

	Accept "Humvee" for "Hummer"?

	chris789:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 18:57 GMT	2 points
	pjt is right

	samcash13593:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 19:13 GMT	-1 points
	hm it was my understanding that to humour someone was to indulge them, and to "provide amusement" was something different entirely. but maybe you have different definitions in usa.

	ClintT13:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 19:13 GMT	1 point
	pjt summed up my thoughts perfectly. "Humor" is not a correct answer for the clue given. It only relates to laughter when used as a noun. When used as a verb, it relates to appeasement.

	@All: I just emailed Sporcle once again with the fixes. I am truly sorry. Thanks for playing and I hoped you still enjoyed the quiz.

	jibberjabber87:	Jun 20th, 2011 at 19:22 GMT	10 points
	Okay, lets not be so harsh about the "ect", it was probably a typo, hey, we all make 'em, give them a break! And, OBVIOUSLY, they fixed it, so, chill....

	loved this! perfect combination of hard and easy
