Okay, the Highlighters is Reservoir Dogs, right? because I'm sure it is and I guessed that before all the clues, but the game keeps telling me I'm wrong. Or am I just dense?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

No, you're right. I'm not sure what you're doing that the game doesn't like -- it's very picky.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Sue, that's the right answer. (Must be a typo in your answer, but I can't see it.)

I had spelled it wrong before, but then I looked it up and got the right spelling, but it won't acknowledge the change.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Maybe there's an extra space at the end.

Right, because it's really spelled Au revoir, les enfants

Denser than the person who spent 5 minutes trying to figure them out before realizing they weren't actual stills from movies? I think not!
Ah, but you're a professor of French cinema. If you didn't believe in the overriding truth of the image regardless of the pretense on which it was created, where would we all be? In a Tony Scott movie, I say.

Sean, I love that post because it feels like it should be some post-modern analysis of stationery politics.
Hee! Thanks, SA. I was having almost as much fun coming up with hints as I was playing the game.

Completely delete your answer until you're sure it's empty and there's no extra spaces. Then carefully type it in again. Your spelling is correct.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Finally saw i The Departed. Liked it pretty well. Had a couple of things that grated. Barrigan also being a rat, and seemingly knowing about Sullivan--did Brown call him instead of Dignan? They had Costigan plant seeds of doubt in Costello's head about French, but we never saw them take root--did Costigan end up with the tapes because all the rest of the inner circle was dead, or because Costello wanted him specifically to have them. Dignam disappearing so thoroughly. Sure, he was an abrasive prick, but wouldn't he have wanted to keep an eye on Costigan, at least for the sake of the operation?
I also found myself laughing at the violence in the latter part of the movie, and I'm pretty sure that wasn't supposed to be my primary reaction.
