I think Ive done pretty well with those actually, more confident than I was with the first lot.

Actually forget that, I just re-read the review and obviously missed the important “second movie” line. Curses!

Kicking myself for not getting the Matrix Reloaded but as I've not seen Interstellar or Drive I don't feel bad about missing those. Spiderman 2 was my other miss and I certainly won't feel bad about that :lol:

I had no idea about Drive, I guessed Atomic Blonde. :lol:

The second list is harder imo. I have made some guesses and am hoping I am on the right lines.

I think I'm at the same split of known and guesses as on the first round.

Going to continue my approach of giving Vermi joke guesses for the ones that I don't know as I like to think it's my job to make him cringe bring smile to his face when he conducts the important job of tallying the scores! :slol:

I made the exact same mistake as you initially. Luckily I was able to correct my error when I noticed as I was reading out the reviews to my partner.

This second list looks much harder than the first, I think I know just over half of them but will have to have a think about the others.

I've actually found the second one a lot easier. Assuming I'm correct with the others, I only skipped one (number six). In the first round, I had a bunch of skips or wildcard guesses! I had to rack my brains for a solid ten minutes for the last question in round two though because of a factual error on the part of the reviewer, so I had to think about certain things that would help me remember the fact to make sure I wasn't barking up the wrong tree.

Gutted I'm in 7th place (out of eleven). Round One had a lot of movies I've never seen before.
Captain Marvel - never seen but knew by the review what they were talking about. Some woman coming in and "destroying" a decade-long franchise. Brie Larson gets A LOT of hate in r/Marvel and on YouTube.
It - never seen but have read the book
Interstellar - never seen but I've heard people talk about it
Drive - skipped this one
Grand Budapest Hotel - never seen but knew bad Hulk appears in this movie so when they said "hotel" I knew it had to be this
This is the End - I guessed it was Sausage Party. I was wrong.
Pulp Fiction - never seen it
A New Hope - obviously knew this one
Spider-Man 2 - knew this one. Vermilion didn't write the hyphen so he should disqualify himself!!!!!!!
Jurassic World - knew this one, saw it with a former bf on our first date
The Matrix Reloaded - never seen any Matrix films but what other "simulated reality" movie features Keanu Reeves and is a sequel? Was a safe guess
Frozen - seen this one many times

Made a good guess at all of round two, which is better than the blanks I left in the first round, so we'll see.

Would be fun if D.J included some of the incorrect guesses during the results!

That was a trick question because as we all know there are no sequels to The Matrix.

I only managed to answer 11 of those so my time at the top may well be brief.

My time at the top ( ;) ) will also likely be brief as I've left 3 blank for the time being. I think I may be able to get two of them, but one of them I haven't got a clue on.

Genuinely struggling with no. 8. Think I've got a good handle on the others, but no. 8 is really annoying me.

8 is annoying me as well. I've got two that are blank at the moment and at least one other that I'm not really confident on!

There's one where I'm caught between two movies, and I've gone with one over the other only because of the vaguest of memories. It's really annoyed me, because if the answer is right then the movie is strawberry floating awful. Deserving of a one star review.

8 was the one I didn't get. I'm very much looking forward to its reveal.
