Ok, here's the game for Jan 10, 2026. You all have until midday Sunday before I post the answers.
I promised you a fun and easy game this week, and maybe a couple of toughies for numbers 4 and 5, so enjoy!
Share it, like it, etc, and send me all your answers in the DM.

Yep, it's time!
Let's play "What's the Score?"
Play this video and listen to the 5 music clips. Figure out the movie each one is from (but NOT using an audio search!), and send me a DM with the movie titles and the composers.

The Hollywood studio system was incredibly well-tuned, like a Ferrari factory.
There were no lemons.

It's weird how even the MGM musicals that aren't that good are fucking great.
It’s time, people.

This account exists purely for entertainment and distraction from the hellscape of news, for both me and my followers.
Last week's game was not a fan fav, so this week I'm going for a crowd-pleaser.
On Saturday at 10am ET, stand by for FUN!
As a reminder, here's last week's game.

Suzy Kendall was a fresh, natural screen presence and such a perfect 1960s beauty. Most of us probably know her best from her role as the gentle teacher attracted to Sidney Poitier (like the rest of the world) in TO SIR WITH LOVE.

British actress Suzy Kendall holds two tabby kittens on the set of the 1968 film UP THE JUNCTION. Most sources give her birthday as Jan. 1, 1937, making her 89, so happy belated birthday to Ms. Kendall.

Take care of yourselves. I’m going to go paint. I think we need to bring back public wailing. Polite mourning is getting us no where.

Anecdotes recounting serendipitous moments in the life of John Williams and family are at times mind-bogglingly unbelievable, to the point where they'd be rejected if they were pitched as a movie script.
