	The displayed answers are based on the first word in the titles of the movies in that range but some of them sound like they'd make great movie titles: Mighty Miracle, Wild Winters, Cinderella City, Paper Passage. So be creative, my friends! Give your plot synopsis for a movie with the title of any of the answers.

	I see there's a rockgolf2. Would he be any relation?

	rockgolf:	Nov 10th, 2011 at 11:00 GMT		3 points
	Again? Nope. Someone absconding my name using it to follow a bunch of people. I have no association to RG2. None at all.

	"A Star Starting" - A biopic of Eddie Murphy until the day he lands his SNL gig. (Or pick any star and stop before the good parts.) "The Fat Few" - About the survivors of a campaign to eliminate the unfit in a dystopic society. "Wuthering Yentl" - Actually, I have no idea.

	rockgolf:	Nov 10th, 2011 at 13:37 GMT		1 point
	"Divorce Dog" - A miserable couple (Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston) stay together for the sake of the puppies. "Unsinkable V.I.P.s" - When a corporate jet is forced to land in the middle of the ocean, competitive executives (Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise) must work together to survive.

	Hustle I - The prequel to Hustle II.

	"Apostle Assassination" -- Agents of the Roman Emperor go on a secret mission to kill St. Paul. "Educating Elephant" -- Like "Dead Poets' Society," only with pachyderms.

	Loved the quiz, will it allow you to put it in 3 columns, I had to keep scrolling up and down a lot. And I'm not going to come up with a synopsis for Exorcist Fanny (which I suspect may be worse in British slang than for Americans...)

	Chandelier:	Nov 10th, 2011 at 20:30 GMT		1 point
	Absence adventures – Ferris Buller skips school for a week, hunts for Holy Grail, gives Indiana Jones a lesson about learning to enjoy the little things in life Atlantic Aviator – the early years of Charles Lindbergh Blue body – X men Origins: Mystique: Adventures with Smurfs on Pandora Breaking Bridget – The Revenge of Daniel Cleaver (and everyone who paid to see The Edge of Reason) Children’s Cider – Willy Wonka’s pub venture goes wrong Gladiator Go-between – A quirky look at marriage counselling during the Roman Empire Gorgeous Grapes – Sideways. On Prozac. Unsinkable VIPs – Like Air Force One but on a boat. With all the leaders of the UN Security Council countries on board. Would love to do one with Becket (t), Being and a take on Waiting for Godot, but I’m frankly not educated enough….

	Ah, didn't see the "only 1934 and after" part...kept guessing "The Last Command" and so forth.

	rockgolf:	Nov 10th, 2011 at 21:20 GMT		1 point
	@johnlk: I wanted to get exactly 1000 films, and before 1934 there are several inconsistencies: write-in candidates, variable number of nominees, several cases where an actor of actress was nominated for several films in the same year, rather than a single role.

	rockgolf:	Nov 10th, 2011 at 21:47 GMT		1 point
	@Chandelier: I've moved to a smaller font & 3 columns, but no matter what, 1000 movie titles take up a lot of real estate.

	Wolfie0890:	Nov 11th, 2011 at 05:12 GMT		2 points
	@rockgolf. Yea he's got the same photo and everything. I figured you'd have no reason to make another account.

	pianoshootist:	Nov 11th, 2011 at 21:24 GMT		1 point
	couldn't get "Kitty Foyle" to work. Seen it twice and never heard of the subtitle until now.

	miko:	Nov 11th, 2011 at 21:35 GMT		2 points
	Much better to not have all the movies mentioned and just the range to fit in more columns imo. Something like this: http://www.sporcle.com/games/nsxdarin/3276-imdb-movies-with-10k-votes-a-to-z

	rockgolf:	Nov 15th, 2011 at 00:32 GMT		1 point
	@pianoshootist: You can say hello Kitty now. I've set the main title up as an alternate. @miko: If I only supplied the first & last films, people would ask what the other 3 are. I may regroup it in 10s, if space allows.

	ddd62291:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 01:06 GMT		2 points
	Could you please make this 20 mins? The extra 5 mins does help

	nickd46:	Oct 20th, 2012 at 19:23 GMT		1 point
	The cell with most of the "In the..." movies and the one with both of the "Inside" movies are flipped, alphabetically. Wish I hadn't spent two minutes trying to think of a title between "In the Bedroom" and "In the Heat of the Night."

	Keryl:	Jan 25th, 2013 at 03:40 GMT		1 point
	This was rough. I definitely could have used five more minutes.

	ddd62291:	Feb 26th, 2013 at 20:25 GMT		1 point
	With the oscars over, 2012 films should be on here.

	rockgolf:	Mar 7th, 2013 at 01:12 GMT		1 point
	@ddd: I'll probably regroup this for next year.
