I have decided to stop the game for awhile.
There simply wasn't enough interest which is kind of odd to me, because the prize at the end of the month was cash or the equivalent in a gift certificate.
At the best, I had 3 people taking guesses, at the lowest, 1, and a one man game isn't a game, it's a giveaway.
I tried to make them hard but not too hard, first clue was hard, second clue was the dead giveaway.
i wanted people to have fun, movie buffs to show their stuff, and get rewarded for it, but really, there simply was not enough interest at all.
I was posting at the wrong times too apparently.
Too early in the day, people couldn't play because they were at work, too late and they were busy with family and home, and the middle of the day, who knows why.
So for now, it's done.
I may bring it back again later on because I enjoyed doing it, but probably not with a prize, just for fun.

Name the movie, 1 point

October 26, 2007
Due to being gone the majority of today and the subsequent blood loss, there was no guess the movie today.
There will be one tomorrow, so be watching for that.
I really hope that more people come and play.
I would like to see a bunch of people competing for the prize, and taking guesses at it.
I work hard to find a movie, get the perfect screen shots, and ask for things which will make you think and allow you to earn more points.
And because this contest is only on my blog, you are not asked to post anything about it on your blogs, you will not be accused of having a sponsored post for any companies a little too over board in their post rejections. *wink wink*
It would be cool if you wanted to promote the contest on your blogs, it would drive more people here to play, and I really do want to see more people playing or else Carla will always be the winner...LOL
She's really good at this, (check the sidebar for point tally) but I know there are other people out there who watch a lot of movies and can tell what a movie is from a screen shot.
There has to be! hahahah
Anyway, it will be back tomorrow, and I'd really love to see more people playing.
If I can't drum up enough interest, I won't continue it.
It's not worth it to me to run a contest with only one person playing.
I know you understand what I mean.
Thanks!

This may be too easy. So what movie is it?

One additional screen cap is below. These are the only clues you will get.
*EDIT*
I added a wee bit more to the main screen cap, which I had cut in half. Perhaps this really easy one to me, was made too hard by cutting the picture too much.
