Welcome X-mas, X-mas Day!
To help usher in the Most Wonderful Time Of The Year, it is time for the first installment of the CUF HOLIDAY MOVIE TRIVIA CHALLENGE. It is time for parties for hosting, marshmallows for roasting and gay happy meetings (not THOSE kind, sickos!).
In an effort to broaden the audience beyond the select cadre of Masters of Macabre that participate in the THRILLER CHALLENGE, this HOLIDAY CHALLENGE will be less obscure and more accessible to all.
The challenge rules are similar to previous challenges, with a few merry twists. Every day this month I will post a screen cap from a Holiday movie or TV show. The movies/shows will vary in both popularity and difficulty, but will be well-known for the most part. Some will be recent, some will be oldies. I will also ask trivia questions associated with the movie/TV show. You simply guess the movie and answer the questions. The Cuffer that has guessed the most correctly by the end of the month will be crowned Papa Noel and will reign supreme for the year.
A few ground rules (some are NEW!)...and remember, Santa knows if you are being naughty or nice:
1. This is to be 100% honor system. As such, NO INTERNET/GOOGLE or outside help of any kind (with one exception to be noted later).
2. Do not divulge the answers or hints in this thread. Feel free to post, but this is a competition. Please do not ruin it for those that wish to play according to the rules. Also, do NOT discuss other holiday movies/shows in this thread, as they may appear later in the month.
3. You can lifeline to your heart's content. Ask friends, coworkers, non-believers or Scrooges. However, your lifelines are bound by the same honor system...no internet or other outside sources. This is all strictly recall.
4. Lifeline penalty:
Answer correctly with no help: 3 points
Answer correctly with lifeline: 2 points
Answer incorrectly, but still attempt a guess: 1 point (this is the Creekster rule....submit a guess, even if you don't know. And "I have no idea" is not a valid guess)
5. Every day, PM me your guess. I will announce standings to date as often as possible.
6. Regarding your answers, you need to give me the exact title of the movie. The reason for this will become obvious as some of the screen caps get posted (sequels, for example). You need to be specific. I will be the final judge for accuracy, but if you mess up on an "a" or a "the" here and there, no worries.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to post them here and I will answer them.
Please note that watching these movies is an acceptable strategy. Everyone is encouraged to rent or illegally download these shows this month...watch a bunch of them with the fam...then go out to a meadow, build a snowman, pretend that he is Parson Brown, then ask yourself why you just held a fake wedding with a snowman presiding as clergy.
So now, my friends, it is time to Trim up the Tree with X-mas stuff, like bingle balls and whofoo fluff. Trim up the town with goowho gums and bizilbix and wums.
Good luck to all. And God Bless us, everyone!

DDD was supposed to answer the question with me giving a follow up response referencing some other Christmas related films.
