Quiz the one hundred-and-ninety-eighth: Peeping Tom (Parts one and two)

This week’s double quiz has nothing to do with Michael Powell’s 1960 film Peeping Tom. It’s just full of people looking into windows on the sly. At least most of them are people.

    14: Batman (but since I have no idea which one, not sure that really counts)
    35: Dick Tracy
    47: 2001 (Hello HAL!)

    I don’t know what 42 is, but I’m curious now!

  2. Riders of Skaith

    3. Signs.
    5. 1941??
    14. The Batman, I think….proving that Bruce Wayne does have a point when he picked his disguise.
    16. OG King Kong.
    33. Gregory Peck in a B/W Western. uuuummm. Doesn’ look like The Gunslinger. The Bravados, maybe?
    38. Looks like the Invisible Man.
    42. Justice League.
    47. 2001: A Space Odyssey
    48. Mighty Joe Young?
    49. The Magnificent Seven.

    I’ll also put an outside bet on 36 being Taken.

      Mostly right. 5 is a miss, but that’s a good guess (it’s a pretty obscure title). Yes, that’s Peck in a Western, but he was in a few. Not one of those. 38: that’s an Invisible Man movie, but . . . 48: that’s a big monkey, but . . .

      36 is a good guess too, but a near miss. Meaning all of Neeson’s later work looks the same.

        Yes, and there they can stay, until some bonkers movie quiz addict finds it in the year 2070 and zaps all the answers with a biological interface to a mega computer. Hope h/she gets a prize!

        I’ve heard there are such addicts out there. I can’t think of any neat prizes though, and I’m all tapped out with Christmas anyway.

  4. Alex's Review Corner

    3. Signs… (?)

    8. Manos the Hands of Fate

    14. The Batman

    16. King Kong

    17. Invasion of the Body Snatchers

    20. Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol

    31. Dare I say, it could be Invasion of the Body Snatchers Donald Sutherland Edition

    37. I suspect this is a trick question. My gut tells me it’s Gnomeo and Juliet, but it could just as easily be Sherlock Gnomes, and that’s not something I every thought I’d type.

    42. Zack Snyder’s Justice League

    48. King Kong the remake, I don’t know what year that one came out.
