This is why I chose to leave this question as it was originally posted. Do you pick a crappy movie, or will everybody else be picking the same crappy movie? Do you risk actually naming a good movie? Classic overthinking.
I myself go for factual questions for Reverses, and opinion questions for Sheep, but all Sheepmasters have their own style. :shrug: |

It was too broad. Maybe if you whittled down the criteria somehow, it would have limited the possible answers.

As I said, that Oscar Nomination one would have been perfect. I even know what my obscure answer would have been.

The question said "superhero" I would be surprised at anyone who picked a villain like The Joker

I think you could've accomplished the same thing by saying something like "Name a Marvel Universe movie." People could name the good, recent movies, or try to go obscure. They can overthink on that too. ;)

I live for the Oscars. It's kind of ashamed to admit it, but my head is full of Oscar trivia and I recall many nominations. Several films have Special Effects nominations. Every year or two one picks up a Sound Effects/Sound Editing Nomination. A few films have score nominations. Then there's the Make Up Oscar as well. It's more than you'd think.

Lesson learned for next time. Yes, the Oscar question should have been a reverse. First time! :shrug:

Re: Movie Talk (Reverse) Sheep: Sheeperhero Edition
OK, one more before bedtime -- and to get us to the halfway point!
7.)We all know fan favorites aren’t necessarily “critical successes” though … Name a superhero film which received one (or more) Oscar nominations. http://thatmomentin.com/wp-content/u...-1-990x619.jpg |

This will sound odd ... but I quit paying attention to the Oscars when I left the home video and movie theater businesses. I used to be hardcore on the Oscars, but I honestly have no idea about any Oscars over the last 10-12 years.

All Margot is thinking in that picture is how much she wants to get away from Chris and go fall asleep in a stranger's house.

Re: Movie Talk (Reverse) Sheep: Sheeperhero Edition
X-Men in 2000 ... Sorry Wishbone, no nominations or wins (or points). This is as close as the X-Men get to an Oscar:

Re: Movie Talk (Reverse) Sheep: Sheeperhero Edition
X-Men movies don't win Oscars; they hire Oscar winners.

Re: Movie Talk (Reverse) Sheep: Sheeperhero Edition
Don't feel bad though Wishbone ... that wasn't the worst answer.
Crocker Jarmen and The Bus both nominated "The Dark Knight Returns." http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/...q3jwocm91y.jpg I couldn't find any record of any Oscar nominations, wins, or even a movie by that name. Yes, they both booted it. But they matched ... -2 for each of them. Grudgingly. For the record, "The Dark Knight Rises" also did not have any nominations or wins. |

Re: Movie Talk (Reverse) Sheep: Sheeperhero Edition
A 26 point slam has me 21 points behind. I guess I'm as dead as Katie Holmes' acting.
