Here are the answers. I'm curious, which answer that they labeled as correct was wrong?
Spoiler Alert
Close Encounters of the Third Kind HAL 9000 Frankenstein Forbidden Planet Alien War of the Worlds (1953) Tie Fighter from Star Wars Robocop Logan's Run Them! (1954) Star Trek Jurassic Park Earth vs. The Flying Saucers Tron

Status : Offline | Hey, not bat... 85 credits... Thanks for the answers Andromus, looks like I failed to recognize Star Treck and Earth vs. The Flying Saucers. Funny thing is I only saw Alien, Star Wars, Robocop, 2001 Space Odissey and Jurassic Park. Frankenstein, Forbidden Planet, War of the Worlds, Logan's Run, Them and Tron were movies that I seem to recall pieces of the movie instead of actually remembering all of the movie, and the rest was just intuition... seems to be that this can be a pretty easy quiz for someone who watched most of the movies.

Spoiler AlertQuestion 11 asks what TV show "*chirrup* The captain is not on the ship." is from. The expected answer is of course "Star Trek", but a more proper answer would be "Star Trek: The Next Generation". Even if one were to make it a trick question any include another 24th-century Trek, it's still obviously early-season TNG given the soft quality of Majel Barret's voice.

Bit late now, I know, but all them are replayable. Or at least in my browser, audio player controls were available.

Sadly I don't think many people even come down here to this area. It should probably be moved up higher so it's more noticeable. Heck, that AG Scene thread should probably be in the AG Games thread. Seems like most of the AG Themed puzzles get very little action around here since they are off the beaten path so to speak... :
