Wow, I really thought Godard would have been a much more popular choice.

Powell should have 10:

Thief of Baghdad
49th Parallel
I Know Where I'm Going
A Canterbury Tale
The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp
Black Narcissus
The Red Shoes
Small Back Room
Tales of Hoffman
Peeping Tom

Thief of Baghdad wasn't listed with him as the director when i put them in order on the Criterion site, but I see it was a collaboration between Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell and Tim Whelan, so it was listed under B for Berger. It should count though...I'm refixing your scores.

Thanks for breaking the game, sauce :mad:

EDIT: NM, we're rolling again.

If I have learned anything from this so far, to be a great director, you have to smoke and stare at film...or in Fellini's case, look like a complete bad ass.

Darn. Counted wrong.

Hailey G 06-10-13 01:09 PM

Re: (low class and high score) Criterion Sheep
 
If the highest scoring correct answer is +10, shouldn't the wrong answers be +12?

EDIT: Nevermind. Forgot about the multipliers and didn't really read how they worked until now.

rocket1312 06-10-13 01:10 PM

Re: (low class and high score) Criterion Sheep
 
I think Fellini should be correct.

Amarcord
Nights of Cabiria
And the Ship Sails On
8 1/2
Juliet of the Spirits
The White Sheik
La Strada
I vitelloni
Variety Lights
Fellini Satyricon (LD only)

it had a x2 multiplier, so the penulty is double

Crocker Jarmen 06-10-13 01:11 PM

Re: (low class and high score) Criterion Sheep
 
Fellini should have at least 10:
Variety Lights
The White Sheik
I Vitelloni
8 1/2
Nights of Caberia
La Strada
Amacord
...And The Ship Sails On
Juliet of the Spirits

You should've stuck with the DVD/BD releases only, bring in LD is a pain in the ass.

+10!!!

Re: (low class and high score) Criterion Sheep
 
Also, I don't know what source you are using to research these, but I find the lists on Wikipedia to be very useful. They're sortable by spine, title, year, director, etc and what's nice about their LD list is that it lists the corresponding DVD spine number. If it's LD only, then there's just a dash in that column.

Re: (low class and high score) Criterion Sheep
