I should've listened properly to the Shaft Theme.

I only got it because Bart and Lisa sing it in the sushi episode in season two of the Simpsons and Bart says 'but I can dig it'

Started typing Alien, Crash, and Ghost as soon as time started, thinking they'd be on this one for sure, but nope. Never heard of half of these, although I'm kicking myself for not getting Rocky.

Now isn't that title appealing to the audience. Surely the movie would've had more success like that. :P

...I couldn't get "Shaq" out of my mind for the Shaft question. Shaq's 4 letters, obviously, so "Shack" was the only thing I thought might work.

I feel dumb.

They enjoy sexy pottery. This is the best clue I've seen in a while.

Yeah, Christopher Nolan is more miss than hit, and a bit overrated. He's the smart person's M. Night Shyamalan.

I don't think Nolan is overrated at all. Literally 90% of the movies he has made I would give 4 out of 5 stars.

Memento

Dark Knight

Prestige

Inception...

C'mon!!!

He might be a bit overrated, but more misses than hits? Sorry but that's just not something I can agree with. I personally enjoyed all of his movies, including Tenet, Interstellar, and Dark Knight Rises, which are probably three of his most disliked films.

I thought Tenet was awful too, but I've liked just about everything else he's done. Insomnia was meh and I've never seen Interstellar, but I've really enjoyed all the others, particularly Batman Begins and the Prestige.

Interstellar was the worst waste of nine hours and money I've ever put up with.

27% of the folks got Tenet correct. That tells me I didn't miss anything by skipping that movie.

It probably doesn't help that there are a million time travel movies, and if you don't read the hint closely you wouldn't be able to tell that it's not strictly talking about time travel.

The lack of Mulan renders this quiz totally meaningless.
+2

Because Mulan's the only movie in the world that has a five-letter-long title?

Removed Bruno and replaced it with Mulan.

The whole Sacha Baron Cohen thing seems so cringe to me now, honestly.
