Yet another DVD Mystère discussion thread

So all we need to do is wait for Aivansama to confirm Bobbi is correct and then for Bobbi to confirm Tom is correct. Tom aren't you going to post your clue in advance so we can create a chain of back-ups? And then after six pages we can find out Bobbi was wrong and the whole game is fucked.

No, we need to wait for Aivansama to confirm Bobbi is right and then see who's the fastest to name 'Serenity'. Tom's guess naturally doesn't count because it's not allowed to make guesses yet. Of course Tom can place his guess again when the game is back on.

Tut tut, Tom.

Nice one, HungFist!

I'm back, but looks like Aivansama isn't. Hmmm, that didn't work, so well, so I guess if I AM correct, and it IS Barking Dogs Never Bite, I should post a new screengrab from a different film. Because yes, Tom, you're right and it's Serenity, and yes, Tom, you were the first to do what I'd asked you all not to do.

Next time I'll just wait.

Yeah, sorry. Wasn't able to get to the computer last evening, since something unexpected came up.

It was, of course, Barking Dogs...

HungFist · Post by **HungFist** » 03 Dec 2006, 09:21

Serenity? (in case the game is still/now on)

tom2681 · Post by **tom2681** » 03 Dec 2006, 12:08

OK, this is what we should do:

-68Monkey gets 3 Points for guessing Barking Dogs.
-Tom gets no points for guessing Serenity (this round is cancelled).
-Tom is going to post a screenshot in an hour to restart the game.

I don't get to re-post a screengrab?

the68monkey · Post by **the68monkey** » 03 Dec 2006, 16:11

Well, it's been over an hour since Tom posted that, so I'm going to go ahead and break the rules again.

Country: multiple

tom2681 · Post by **tom2681** » 03 Dec 2006, 16:14

OK, the game has officially restarted.
Thanks Bobbi.

Oliver Twist (2005)?

Perhaps a bit of a hint with the country here. The film was made in multiple countries, but it's mainly set in about the only place I can think of where someone would wear the mustard-colored outfit on the right.

Osama?

Yep, that's it.

A beautiful film. Highly recommended.

Ooops! Two replies within a minute of each other!

Also, a note on the garment. Afghanistan is the only place I know of where women wear the full-length burqa in public. Perhaps Pakistan, too? In other Muslim countries & communities, isn't the face allowed to show, as long as the head/hair is covered?

You gotta be friggin' kidding me...

the68monkey · Post by **the68monkey** » 03 Dec 2006, 16:38

I think I'm a jinx to this game.

tom2681 · Post by **tom2681** » 03 Dec 2006, 16:40

Anyway, I think LD's just scored his first points of 2006.

thelostdragon · Post by **thelostdragon** » 03 Dec 2006, 16:42

True, lol. Next screenshot coming up soon.

Are you talking generally here? Coz round my way in Walsall you can sometimes spot muslim women walking around the town centre with the full length burqas on. Of course the vast majority of muslim women round here don't.

AFAIK it's not set in stone in any country. It depends on the local rules I believe.

You see women in Britain wearing all variations of the veil but the full veil (it covers more than the burca I think, just slits) isn't common.

Personally I find the veil where either just the eyes or slits are sown uncomfortable (in a Western country) but the rest I don't have a problem with. It's all about seeing the face.
