Smellykellyjay :)
Here's your Yee-Haw Prize
Congrats again for yet another prize Kelly :D !!!
Penthesilea:
I will now post the correct answers with a few additional notes. If you intend to take the qiuz noncompetively, stop reading now and go over to the quiz thread here: http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,12623.0/topicseen.html
1) What is the house number of the Riverton apartment above the laundromat?
2
2) What does Carl even do?
He even talks
3) What runs in Timmy's family?
strong backs and weak minds
4) Where is Ennis supposed to be in June 1984?
On a roundup over near the Tetons
5) Who opened the thread about Jack and the wind?
atz75/Amanda
Note: I didn't know that on imdb this thread also had existed and Danyelle-Dillon had opened it. So both answers are correct and anyone who named both scored an extra point.
6) Please complete the sentence: Jack may be a sinner, but Ennis........
...ain't yet had the opportunity
7) What is to be read on the mail box of Jack's parent's ranch?
John C. Twist
8 ) What could Ennis do if he had three hands?
wipe Alma Jr's nose
9) What lovable subtle detail did Belbbmfan post on May, 4th, 2007?
"how Jack sortof 'nuzzles' the bedroll just as he puts Ennis's hand 'you know where' during the first tent scene.
It's here (scroll down a bit, it's reply #411):http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,1039.410.html
10) What should boys watch?
football
11) What did Jack do with the transistor radio?
twisted the dial until the batteries died
Note: it's in the short story, but not in the movie
12) From your memory, no auxiliary tools allowed for this one question: Who uses the ax, who uses the saw when Ennis and Jack build up their first camp?
Ennis=saw; Jack=ax
13) What's wrong with this pic? Hint: I don't mean the lettering on it ;)
It's photoshopped. Jack didn't show this broad smile until Ennis sat down next to the fire. As long as Ennis was standing on the right of the tent, THIS smile wasn't to be seen.
Note: Some of you were more creative than me and of course, the tent don't look right (according to Ennis). So I accepted this answer also as correct and it was worth one point
14) Name the exact date of the reunion. You can score one bonus point here, but I won't tell you how, you have to find out yourself ;D
June, 24th, 1967 in the short story and September, 24th, 1967 in the movie.
Each answer is correct and if you named both, you got a bonus point.
15) What does Monroe drink on Thanksgiving?
milk
Note: Lter he drank brandy while watching TV, so I also accepted this as correct answer
16) What does Jeff Wranger think is the happiest scene in the whole movie (at least he did think so on May, 9th, 2006)? Too hard? Okay, I'll give you a hint: page four.
the "rodeo cowboys is all fuckups" scene
Note: meanwhile this thread is back on page one of the forum, but when you all took the quiz, it was still on page four. It's here, reply # 11: http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,1277.10.html
17) How long does Jack commute every day?
4 hours
Ellemeno:
Yee Haw, I am grateful for this award, and for the illustrious company it puts me in.
I cannot tell a lie though - once I had posted my answers, and started looking at everyone else's, I saw that the first person had put "2" as the first answer, whereas I had put "I don't know." As soon as I saw that "2" I realized I had misread the question, and that you were asking about the laundry apartment door. I had somehow thought you were asking about the address for Monroe's house. So, without thinking it through, I said to myself, "Oh! I really did know that there was a "2" on the laundry apartment door, so I feel fine about going back and putting what I know in my answers (this was two seconds after just posting them, so I still felt connected to the process). Now seeing the points and prizes and all, I need to tell you that. Adjust as you see fit. I could not live a secret.
Fun quiz, Chrissi. I hope there are more in the future!

It's alright, it's alright.....
That's not cheating, it's only correcting an oversight. You've played fair and earned all the points you got. Additionally, we don't want to take everything too serious. It's all just for fun :).
I'm happy you enjoyed the quiz.
