Here is another of our rapid-fire Advent Games to give you more chances to win through the rest of the month. In this competition, we will post still-frames from one movie each day. Your goal is to be one of the first three to correctly guess which movie the screenshot belongs to.

Rules
One guess per member per pic.
Each picture may have no more than 3 winners.
Each individual member may win up to 3 times.
Guesses will be made via PM to me. Please word your subject line accordingly so it is not lost in my sea of PM's (i.e. Mystery Flick Guesses)
No hints will be given.
A new movie will be released every day.
I will post additional screenies for movies with no correct guesses after several 12+ hours.
Previous days' flicks may still be guessed upon until there are 3 winners for each movie.
This contest is open to all users, whether you have won previous forum games or not.
Challenges will be released at different times of the day/night to make the contest more fair to our friends around the globe.
These rules may be edited at any time during the game.

Prizes
The first 3 correct guesses for each movie will win 250k pure NP

To Claim Your Prize
Append your trade link to your answer PM to me.
Winnings will be disbursed after you have collected three wins.
If you get less than three (<3 aww) wins, your NP will be paid out at the end of the competition.

no, but i never read the rules.

[Turnip]

Good luck everyone~

I don't watch movies all that much anymore, sobsob

[redlion]

Perhaps I could have just found a mod to take care of this, but does this belong in GC? Seems to me this is a neopets thread.

Cheers for putting on fun contests though. Wish you guys had been around for the contest team Woulda been right up your alley.

Edit: Well, looking through GC I guess all the advent stuff is in here. Boggles the mind though. I don't play neopets so it sort of throws me to see related threads outside of the neopets section.

We have our second winner, congrats punkrockbigmouth!

[Waser Lave]

I knew I should have extended my database to include every frame of every film, it might take a few years to find an answer though.

[nyquil]

[silentqueen]

Movie flick #2:This was a tough one, but I think I got it.

[nymh]

Congrats to nyquil and silentqueen for correctly guessing flick number two! Still one slot left on both pics.

Peophina snuck in and nabbed the #3 spot for Mystery Flick Two. Congrats!

[silentqueen]

Wow! Thanks so much nymh.

When the competition is over can we please get the answers posted? I've been raking my brain for hours about the first movie flick and I just can't figure it out.
Also thanks for making such a fun game.

[nyquil]

Yay!!! I was right Thank you Nymh!! and goodluck everyone with the next flick

[Cory]

Man I was thinking "if it has an Asian guy in it it must be a Jackie Chan Flick. I started to look through his movies but he has 110 movies so bump that.

Ooh, I know, I know, I know.
Nymh I pm-ed you the answer.

[nymh]

We have our final winner for flick #1! Congrats silentqueen

For some reason my first post exploded into HTML stupidness. Editing all that bullshit into some semblance of what it was before was so not what I wanted to do this morning (with a hangover on Christmas Morning with 3 hours of sleep)

But in happier news, Flick #3 is up!
