Summer Movies...what are you gonna see?

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

The Movie Test
This is pretty damn amazing. Mine turned out to be 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'.

I was surprised how this worked. Be honest and don't look at the movie list till you have done the math!

Try this test and find out what movie is your favorite. This amazing math quiz can likely predict which of 18 films you would enjoy the most.

Don't ask me how, but it really works!


Movie Test:

Pick a number from 1-9.

Multiply by 3.

Add 3.

Multiply by 3 again.

Now add the two digits together to find your predicted favorite movie in the list of 18 movies below.










Movie List:
1. Gone With the Wind
2. E.T.
3. Beverly Hills Cop
4. Star Wars
5. Forrest Gump
6. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
7. Jaws
8. Grease
9. The Joy of Anal Sex with A Sheep
10. Casablanca
11. Jurassic Park
12. Shrek
13. Pirates of the Caribbean
14. Titanic
15. Raiders of the Lost Ark
16. Home Alone
17. Mrs. Doubtfire
18. Toy Story
19. Now, ain't that something....?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Yup, Sustainability is futile. :mex:

Liked the part where America finally admits to faking the moon landings! :lol:

(not a spoiler, it was just mentioned in passing)

Liked the future New York Yankees as well. :D

I'd rank it at 8.3 out of 10.
Interstellar is an awesome sci-fi movie, it's like the movie Signs mixed with Gravity.

psychedelic ending on that one.

Polsky was born to Soviet immigrants and raised in the Chicago area. He went to Yale University and played hockey there."
