A Movie Thing Five.

I’ve only been off from work for one day, and already I miss it. Do I bore too easily? If they made a movie of my life, would the majority of the film be a montage of me sitting at a computer? And, if so, why are they even making that movie? They don’t make movies about guys like me, but a guy like me watches a lot of movies. By the time I’m back in my office next Thursday, I’ll probably be missing lazy days and long DVDs. While I’m in extreme movie mode though, I might as well manufacture a new Movie Keyword Game. Here’s how we play:

1) Go to IMDB.com and look up 10 films.
2) Post five (5) official IMDB "Plot Keywords" for these 10 picks.
3) Have your friends guess the movie titles.


I’m feeling generous, so the first person to correctly identify all ten films or point out the common theme linking the films will receive a fragment of the Mysterious Master Prize™. What is this prize? It’s so Mysterious, that even those in possession of the ten fragments already awarded this year may not know what they hold. Will you glean a pattern below and win #11?

1) Wheelchair; Racer; Car Accident; Cheating; Manager.

2) Guitar; Satan; Satire; Best Friend; Magic Mushroom.

3) Motivational Speaker; Multiple Story Line; Ensemble; Biblical Passage; Religion.

4) Aerial Refueling; Ice; Blockbuster; Swordfish; Fisherman.

5) Film in Film; Porn Star; Rise And Fall; Roller Skating; Independent Film.

6) Self Determination; Lesbian Kiss; Reading; Title Spoken By Character; Three Women.

7) Character Name In Title; Multiple Cameos; Musician; Drug Humor; Groupie.

8) Bad Girl; Chorus Girl; Crimes Of Passion; Faithful Husband; Crooked Lawyer.

9) Butcher; Epic; Flag; Death; New York City.

10) Flooded Bathroom; Divorced Mother; Dead Girl; Ceiling; Remake Of Japanese Film.

Holy Algernon, I'm surprised too. I'm not saying you got all of them, but you got more than I expected anyone to get. There's about four hours left before I reveal the answers...
