Mystery Poster Theater #18
Well, we usually do this every Wed. at 11AM CST, but I’m a bit tardy this morning. Whoops. Apologies if I’ve wrecked anyone’s groove, but I’m going to go ahead and say that no one is frantically sitting in front of their browser hitting refresh every 10 seconds waiting for me to post the next set of posters. If you have been doing that, please let me know; my ego can always use a pick-me-up.
So, Easy poster is worth 1 point, Hard poster is worth 2. Also, congrats to Nathan K. and Tuire, who both sneaked onto the leaderboard for the first time last week.

Looks like my reign of terror has quickly come to an end. I don’t know any of these this week.

The hard is easier than the easy.
But Scottie already got it.

Nice job, Scottie. And Fletch, good to have you back in the game.
As to the difficulty or ease of certain posters, I’ve learned that it’s all frickin’ relative. My gut tells me that a 1982 comedy starring De Niro that most people have never heard of, let alone seen the poster for, is harder than a recent action flick with Jason Statham that has a distinctly memorable poster. But then again, all relative.

Don’t listen to Piper. He’s just mad cuz he couldn’t get it. Maybe if he saw some contemporary movies outside of Kung Fu Panda and Iron Man he would have known it!

It wasn’t for a lack of trying. Every week, it seems I’m either too late or clueless. But I try, damnit.

Yeah, I know, I know. I wish you would put your poster contest on some kind of schedule (I dunno, is it on one and I’m just not aware?). I show up to see if there is a new one, and inevitably it’s a few days old and I’m late to the party. Guess I should just check my RSS reader more often.

Well, it has “Sunday” in the title, but short of that…no, it’s not set to a specific time like yours is. I’m just not that disciplined.

Ah, I see. But I also see that you just started doing that a few weeks ago, Mr. Trixy.
