Riddled Them That!

On opening night of the Olly Moss Show, "Paper Cuts," we had a bit of a hidden contest for those who visited the show. There were ten pieces mixed amongst the massive amount of laser cut one-offs that had green stickers on their tags. And one piece in the gallery, depicting The Riddler, who's tag explained if you were able to correctly name all of the characters and email it to us by midnight the next day, you could take home The Riddler, FOR FREE.



So congratulations to Aron Yuster, who named all ten correctly and then was randomly selected from the group of all the geniuses who got 100%. And by randomly selected I mean we laid them out, closed our eyes and picked one.

Here are the answers for those who love "answer keys."

Great Odin's Raven - Ron Burgundy
The Right Man in The Wrong Place - Gordon Freeman (Half-Life)
This Deal Is Getting Worse All The Time - Lando Calrissian
I Demand To Have Some Booze - Mithnail & Marwood (we also accepted Withnail and I)
What's The Most You Ever Lost On A Coin Toss - Anton Chigurh
Not Robin Hood - Green Arrow
I Didn't Want To Be An Emperor - The Jewish Barber (Adenoid Hyknel), the Great Dictator
Want Some Gold? - No-Face, Spirited Away
It's Not Easy Being White - Franklin and Gob
Day of the Dead - Manuel "Manny" Calavera (we also accepted Grim Fandango)

CONTEST WINNER AND ANSWERS

So, for everyone who attended The Great Showdowns exhibit last night, we have the answers and results of our "Name That Movie" contest. Just a reminder, 21 of the never-before-seen Showdowns were only titled with a number, leaving it up to the gallery-goer to decide which movie was being depicted. We handed out little forms to fill-out and wished you luck. If you got all 21 films correct, you got your name in a little Lottery and we picked one winner from the bunch. That winner will get their very own Showdown from Scott C. - of ANY movie you choose. May I suggest Leonard Part 6?

Here are the answers...

#1 - The Lost Boys
#2 - Ben-Hur
#3 - The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
#4 - Footloose
#5 - Bram Stroker's Dracula
#6 - My Neighbor Totoro
#7 - The War of the Worlds
#8 - Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke
#9 - Monty Python's Life of Brian
#10 - O Brother, Where Art Thou?
#11 - Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
#12 - Hedwig and the Angry Inch
#13 - Mon Oncle
#14 - Mean Girls
#15 - Singing in the Rain
#16 - Babe: Pig In The City
#17 - 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea
#18 - Forbidden Zone
#19 - Say Anything
#20 - True Romance
#21 - Desperado

Annnnnnd, here's the exclusive list of the 11 movie geniuses who got all 21 films correct, but were not chosen in the very official (aka we put your names in a hat) lottery.

Josh Garrell, Brandon DeVine, Amanda Sankey, Sarah Charleton, Richard Sankey, Andrea McCallin, Kristen Crabtree, Jessica Hoffman, Rob Renzetti, Tracy Royce and Jesse Warren,

And the one LUCKY winner, who will get their very own Showdown, of ANY film they choose (even if Scott has the buy the DVD), is....

JESSICA COFFIELD!
