FYI, we don’t reveal the answer outright. We just hint at it. However, it is okay to give possible wrong answers.

Alert: The first 8 words of our comments show up on the homepage sidebar, so prefacing any hint with a short observation is the best way to go.

    lol. I wonder how many people saw the results of today’s game already. It was online on the contestants page till about an hour ago. Crazy!

  2. JJ says:

    1/3 correct answers… I’ve never heard of that expression before in my life.

    I’ll say 1/3 today

    Well, it looks like another vacation week for the CotD over on Jeopardy! com. Here’s today’s clue in Cinema History:

    Films made outside the U.S. in the ’50s like “Three Coins in the Fountain” & “Quo Vadis” led to an era dubbed “Hollywood” on this river

    It should be obvious if you know the location of either of those films

    I’ll say TWO right.
