Something old, something new, something borrowed, and maybe even something blue in this week’s quiz. I love weddings. They’re like graduations. That last celebration of joy and hope for the future before disappointment and bitterness come crashing into your life. Let’s see if these pics can do the Big Day justice.

Another special double quiz this week as we get snappy-happy with some movie shutterbugs. Yes, it’s pics of people taking pics. All you have to do is name the flicks.
Your passport. Don’t leave home with out it! Though I guess a paper passport will soon be going the way of all things print and we’ll just have this information on our phones soon enough. Making this week’s quiz a bit of a trip down memory lane for frequent flyers . . .
No need to study hard for this week’s quiz, Watson. Just some more people enjoying a bowl. Some of them are stars, some just faces in the crowd. See how many you can pick out.
I have to admit, when I first came up with the idea for this quiz I thought it would be a lot harder. But it seems a fairly popular trope, even in mainstream movies. So this shouldn’t be too much of a challenge for any of you. Just don’t try anything like this at home, by yourself or with a friend!
Not much for you to go on this week, but some of these are vanity plates, which might give you a bit of a clue to identify the movie they appear in.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the tub . . .
Well, it has been a while. More than a hundred quizzes since the last scary bathtime! That’s quite a while, since you have to admit that even if you don’t like to take baths, they make a great place to drown someone, or store their bloody corpse.
One of these days I’ll have to post a quiz with women smoking cigars, just in the interests of diversity. Until then, we have more men lighting up. Consult your DVD shelf, and perhaps your humidor, to identify the following flicks.

Haven’t been seeing a lot of handshakes lately. Might not see many again. But if it means the end of the bro hug too then that can’t be all bad.
More headlines! This is our seventh instalment of front-page news and some of it, I think you’ll agree, is pretty dramatic stuff. So let’s see how many of these stories you can track back to their celluloid source.
