To the Hilt

movie meme

{ 01:51, 2007-Jun-28 } { Posted in nonsensical memes } { 6 comments } { Link }

Stoled another meme from Rachel, because she has good memes. Did I need another excuse?

Basic principles: go to IMDB and pick seven (or another number, she wasn't too picky) of your favorite movies, and then post some keywords from each one and see who can guess which movies they are.

I would point out that it's cheating to go to IMDB and do a keyword search to find the answers, but I rarely get responses to reader-involved memes anyway, so that would be pointless.

Furthermore, if I do receive any guesses, I will follow suit after Rachel and italicize those that have been correctly guessed.

1. Invisible Monster / Crisis of Faith / Single Father / Crop Circle / Baseball / Psychological Drama
No, I'm not kidding. (Those are some of the less abstract ones, too!)

2. Crime / Phone Booth / Neo Noir / Drugs / Loss of Loved One / Deception

3. Romance / Tragic Hero / Revolt / Honor / Kilt - Braveheart
(Oh, come on, that last one should all but give it away!)

4. Father Daughter Relationship / Britain / Period Piece / Class Conflict

5. Father Son Relationship / Hit By Bus / Lake Michigan / Architecture / Romance / Fantasy

6. Based on Poem / Australian Bush / Cowboy / Whipcracking / Brumbies - The Man from Snowy River

7. Musical / Coming of Age / Guilt Complex / Betrayal / Fratricide

8. Comedy / Pirate / Funny Accent / Evil Prince / Secret Identity / Battle of Wits - The Princess Bride

9. Thriller / Colonialism / Railway / Animal Attack / Based on a True Story

10. Leukemia / Marriage / Stage Play / Teen Rebel / Coming of Age - A Walk to Remember

11. Neo Noir / Anarchy / Based on Graphic Novel / Revolution / Dark Hero

There you have it. Eleven of 'em.

#3: Braveheart
Is #1 Donnie Darko? I've never seen it.
#6, one of my favorite movies, but you know I know it because you guessed it on my blog, so I won't spoil it in case anyone's reading the comments before guessing. :)
(I do not know number seven, but the idea of a musical concerning fratricide -- I am intrigued)

And those are the only ones I can guess. :)

I'm almost positive that #5 is: "The Lake House" (which I loved)

#3 Braveheart

#1 Signs? (Didn't see it, so I am guessing)

The others that I knew have already been guessed so I didn't list them.

This is driving me nuts, lol. I'm headed there to check out this site and see if I can choose some too. I LOVE movies! Thanks for posting this one. :o)

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner about the video codes!! I go to this website http://www.bestvideocodes.com/search.php. You go to the artist you want, pick the song you want and then click "generate code." It will take you to a new window and then you can customize the size of it, choose if you want it with or without video, etc. Then in the homesteadblogger, you can go to your template, and then paste the codes where ever you want them. Hope that helps! If you have any more questions just ask!
