  1. Even with your kind assistance w/the names list etc. I've just been having a terrible time remembering names lately and totally couldn't make my brain focus this week. :/ Tried a couple times and it was just fuzz-ville, but I really really love the concept!! So sorry I wasn't able to take a stab at it, but so glad you put it together (+ it's so comprehensive I just went through jotting down a bunch for my TBW list ;))

    1. Heidi, that's okay! I know some people (like my husband) are terrible with remembering actor names, so it wasn't going to be a game that worked for everybody.

      I have not seen #s 3, 9, 12, 13, 14, 21, 30, or 37, so I can't really recommend them, they just worked for this and were famous enough I figured some people would know them.

      Also, I'm not sure I exactly recommend 33, as it is somewhat unsettling and quite violent. Just FYI!

    2. Thanks <3 & all very good to know !

      Also, I CAN recommend #3 ;), been awhile since I watched it, but at the time I remember thinking it rather good. One that kind of gets in and sticks with you. So, due for a revisit / evaluation, but off first impressions I'd still place it somewhere on my top 20 list.

      And eeeeee!!!!! I just noticed you're reading Mara!! First time or a reread??

    3. Heidi, I actually have #3 on my TBW shelves (probably bought after you recommended it, or possibly gotten in a giveaway at some point...), I just haven't seen it yet!

      First time reading Mara! It's really cool! Hoping/planning to use it with my homeschool co-op lit class this year.

Agree or disagree? That is the question...
