OK, this is just TOO COOL!!
First of all, DOWNLOAD THIS EXCEL DOCUMENT.
Then, open it, and try to see if how many of the movies you can figure out with the characters faces removed!
For example, here is one that was easy for me:
Um, these two men dressed in black were easy too:
and this guy dressed in yellow:
How many can you get?? It’s pretty amazing, if you give an incomplete answer, it will ask for more info, such as this one:
Just type in the movie name in the top cell and hit ‘tab’ and the next cell will tell you if you are correct or not.
DISCLAIMER: I’m not endorsing any movies that are ‘bad’ or rated ‘R’ – I mean, I don’t even know what half these movies ARE, but I am curious if anyone can get them all right, or who can get the most correct!
USE COMMENTS TO PUT MOVIE NUMBER AND ANSWER - so don’t peek at comments until you GIVE UP!!!
(so far I have 17 correct)

I’ve got 29 correct… I will say that I haven’t seen all the ones I’ve gotten right
That’d be embarassing. I just know too many ppl that have seen them and told me about them [blush].

Haven’t played it yet, but Karl – you confused me with the name of this post when I get the little thing in the email.
I thought you were talking about Invisible Children, not just Invisible People.
‘Cause, you know, Invisible Children make for a very good blog post.
I have 20. The first evening I received this I spent forever on it. I also learned that Flintstones has a T in it and it’s not spelled Flinstones. Later, Melissa

23 is “The Big Lebowski” (I have never even heard of this movie, I need to get out more!)
37 is “ET” (Possibly one of the worst movies ever made IMO)

I had two other coworkers standing around my desk figuring these ones out — good use of company time isn’t it!
Update… still needed:

#31
#52
