othing could be simpler. I'll post four screen shots from movies each week, and you guess the movies. If you have no idea, feel free to enter a funny answer OR give me a funny with the real. But, in the interests of preventing chaos, horrid misunderstandings, insinuating glances, malicious gossip, and terrible grasping flailing free-fall dreams, here's a couple of ground rules:

1. One guess per shot. (For now, guess all the funnies you want).

2. All guesses are final.

3. Answer with the most correct guesses is worth one point. Second most, two points. Third most, three points. Least most, four points. In case of a tie, the higher point-value goes to the older movie. If two movies from the same year are tied . . . well, that's a secret.

4. The degree system is the order of the day.

One correct answer = Associate
Two correct answers = Bachelor
Three correct answers = Master
Four correct answers = PhD

5. Each funny answer will be given one 'comedy point'. You can also vote for the funniest funny each week - the highest vote-getter(s) will be immortalized in the Funny Hall of Fame. I know it's hard - but please pick just one while voting.

6. Highest points for each month will be saved for posterity. All points (in both film scholar and class clown catagories) will be collated throughout the year. Every six months (January 1 – June 30 and July 1 – December 31), a Grand Film Scholar and a Class Clown will be crowned. Each winner will be offered the chance to guest-host a week.

(Obviously, guest-hosting will put the winners at a one-week disadvantage to repeat as champs. No way around it. But hey, it should be harder to repeat. As it goes with the Super Bowl and the Stanley Cup, so also it should go with the Screen Shot Quiz.)

Cheating (sharing answers, creating multiple email addresses for multiple entries, etc.) is pretty easy, obviously. I'm making no attempt to stop it other than to say: It's a silly online quiz. Don't be a goober.
