**** INCREDIBLE **** STUPENDOUS **** AMAZING **** FANTASTIC **** BIZARRE **** Egads! It's time for VORTEX FILM QUIZ #2! Yes friends, after the tremendous response to VFQ #1 many months ago, it's now finally time for #2. Once again, I must ask you to MAIL ALL ANSWERS DIRECTLY TO ME, **NOT** TO THIS NEWSGROUP!!! Also, this time there will be two catagories of winners: Individual (one person working alone) and Group (more than one person working on the same submission). Please clearly note on your submission if it is a "group" entry, and if so please identify the members of the "group" or the name of the "group" if more appropriate. As with VFQ #1, the contest consists of a number of lines from various films. To win, you must identify the names of the specified films from these lines. The person and group which correctly identify the most titles will be the grand prize winners in each of the two catagories. If possible, you should also include the name of the CHARACTER (not the actor/actress) responsible for the line in the film, since this information will be used to determine the winners in the case of ties. The fantastic grand prizes will be announced later (heh heh!) In the meantime, get in those entries! The contest will close when a 72 hour period has passed without any additional entries being received, starting 48 hours from the posting of this message. ALL REPLIES SHOULD BE SENT TO: {decvax, ihnp4, bonnie, clyde, seismo, allegra, ... }!vortex!lauren Once again, please DO NOT post your answers to netnews. I've tried to include a good mix of "easy" through "very difficult" identifications in the quiz. Good luck! --Lauren-- And away we go: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- VORTEX FILM QUIZ #2 ----------------------- 1) One day of praying and six, Days of fun.
