**DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS**

**Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer,** to get the most people matching you. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.

Right now, the mods are having difficulties changing thread titles. I’m sorry if you come in to a Feud that is already over.

Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.

If any of you have ideas for Feuds -_and would like me to score them_- PM me and I’ll get you on The List.

_ **FORMATTING OF ANSWERS IS IMPORTANT!** _

**Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.  
JUST LIKE THIS:

**1. answer \<\<—There is a space after the period!  
2. response  
3. rejoinder**

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at **4:00 PM Central** on Friday, 9/12/08 - whichever comes first.

Good luck!

1. Name an awful romantic comedy
2. Name an action movie with bad action sequences
3. Name an overly melodramatic drama
4. Name a science-fiction movie with the most absurd science
5. Name an actor that annoys you
6. Name a scenery-chewing actress
7. Name a movie that tries to beat you over the head with a message or moral
8. Name a director whose movies you avoid like the plague
9. Name the Academy Award category that most often gets it wrong
10. Name a movie that’s so bad it’s good

10. This makes me feel kind of bad because of Sharon Tate and all, but it’s so over the top melodramatic!

11. Yeah I know, Star Trek which one… they’re all like that.

12. Just ICK!

13. According to her daughter sometimes she _literally_ chewed scenery. 😃

14. Plan 9 is one of my guilty pleasures. I have to watch it periodically.

7. Fahrenheit 9/11
8. Michael Bay
9. Best Picture
10. Plan 9 from Outer Space

Notes:

1. At least I think it’s intended as a romantic comedy, depsite a distinct lack of either romance or comedy
2. Probably should go with somehting more contemporary, but still…
3. First thought was Pauly Shore, but I’m guessing Sandler’s been annoying people more recently
4. Perhaps I should go with Faye Dunaway. Especially Faye Dunaway as Joan Crawford in ‘Mommie Dearest’ (a contender for #10)
5. If I hadn’t blocked from my mind the names of the guys behind Independence Day and the 1998 remake of Godzilla, I’d probably go with them
6. You people of Earth. Stupid, stupid, stupid!
