so it turns out, i'm more of an every-other-week-kind-of-girl...

i don't want to make excuses... i don't have trivia done for today... partially because of life being crazy and partially because i don't feel like it... but i have a few announcements and a possibility for points...

i will continue posting movie trivia on thursdays as much as possible...

i am also starting a new competition and depending on the way it goes, it may, in the future, replace regular movie trivia days... (i am stealing the idea from a friend of a friend, because i thought it would be a fun new thing for us to try...)

here's how it will work... starting january 2, (giving me time to work up some trivia, move across the country and have a day to settle) i will post one question a day. It will be related to movies, tv, pop culture... but probably mostly movies... i haven't completely decided what the theme will be, so i'm leaving it open for now...

in order to answer the question, participants must email me the answer (not leaving it as a comment). each person who emails me the correct answer on the day the question is posted will receive one point. (or whatever point value i assign)... yes, you heard right, every person can get the points if they answer correctly... it's not only who gets it first... but you only get one guess... so, if your answer is wrong or you don't answer it the same day it's posted, no points for the day...

let me recap the rules:
1) a question will be posted
2) anyone wishing to answer the question must email the answer to me the same day
3) anyone answering correctly on the same day will receive points
4) only one guess per person per question

but i haven't gotten to the best part yet...

at the end of january (31st), whoever has the most points will win the competition...

what will they win, bob? A NEW CAR!!! ...not really

but, the winner will receive a $10 gift card to the store of their choice.

any questions?

now... today's opportunity for points... anyone answering will receive points as long as they put an answer that is valid... list your top 5 movies of 2005... in order of preference for you... they have to have been released (in the theater sometime in 2005)... each complete answer will be worth 2500 points (you have to list 5 to get the full 2500 points)...
