The Jeopardy.com website took off the actual date for the Teachers Tournament.
I remember seeing two movies based on novels by H.G. Wells before I was even 12 years old. (“The Invisible Man” and “The Time Machine”).
I don’t remember how old I was when I first saw one of the Dr Moreau films. Maybe in my teens. I thought Vincent Price would have made a good Dr. Moreau.
Have you seen the 2020 version movie yet?
the 2020 version of what?
The Invisible Man.
Nope
Tough FJ as we got another triple stumper this week.
Bad News is that this week, so far, has been a really hard week with only 3 Correct Responses out of 12.
Good News: At least, Paul broke the Carousel of 1-Day Champions.
Not too familiar with this one. But on the other hand shutter island was a good horror movie starring Leo DiCaprio. Also what was zahkia thinking with Frankenstein? If I remember correctly, Victor Frankenstein made his monster in Ingolstadt, Germany and it didn’t have a house of pain. I guess none of these guys are avid readers.
“Not being an avid reader” is an interesting deduction to make from the fact that they failed to solve one particular clue about one particular book.
Agreed!
Well I guess we can take that remark with a grain of salt since Lou indicated earlier today that, like Paul, he thought the answer was Shutter Island
