Fun Quiz You Will Be Helpless Not to Take

an you recognize a movie poster based on a single letter from the film's title? How about the movie title this 'C' came from?

Here's a quiz from Empire magazine that puts your movie poster memory to the test.

Not only does it test how well you remember fonts, but it tests how indelibly a given movie has imprinted itself on your brain. And sometimes, it's just a testament to how good the studio marketing departments are, choosing exactly the right font style to go with the film. Anyway, it's virtually impossible to open this quiz and not jump right in. See how many you get.

My score was 28, and then my wife got an additional (and very challenging) two.

On a wild guess, my sister got the very last one (which is punctuation), so I am now deeply impressed by my sister.

Post up your results when you're through.

Monolith got 27 of them. Fun game. Sad to be good at it.

I got 30 - crazy how much fonts and colors stick in your mind.

Yep, I got 30 as well. Missed some very obvious ones, too. For shame. For shame...

I watch too many foreign movies and avoid consumerism as much as possible. However, I am embarrased to say that I only got as few right...

So, are you going to make all of Harwell's emails a post these days? Hmmm? Lazy.
