I just checked and Palaver is correct. Only High School Musical 3: Return to Band Camp had a theatrical release.

IMDB calls it a TV movie.

R:20 – Although hostile to 3D at the beginning, Ebert seemed to have accepted it as a new part of the cinematic experience, even praising the 3D in LIFE OF PI. Name a 3D film released before AVATAR.

I looked all of these up, and they all had a theatrical release in 3-D. I'm sure everyone agrees that IMAX is considered a theatrical release.

I had a tough time with this one since I've never really cared that much about 3D films, so the only one that came to mind was the shark. I guess you could say I jumped the shark on this one.

This was my 10 point penalty revised question, so at least I got a gain of 3 points out of it :) Not surprisingly, my original answer ("Dark Eyes of London") would've gotten a zero because I misread the question for being a reverse :doh:

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game
 
S:21 – Ebert championed many documentaries, from Errol Morris to Werner Herzog. Name a documentary not directed by Michael Moore.


Three slams were played on this question, do they bring in big points?

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game
 
This was a tough one for me. I love Herzog so I was definitely biased towards his films. Hopefully that pays off for me, but I'm kind of nervous. Especially because I forgot about the documentary that Ebert named as his #1 movie of the 90's.

Groucho 04-10-13 02:40 PM

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game
 
Side note about Herzog...listen to the episodes of "Doug Loves Movies" that he's a guest on. You won't regret it.

I almost said Beyond the Mat, then I realized that this wasn't a reverse.
