Don’t know if that’s a good thing or not :-)

I was so happy to see Feathers McGraw on there!

12 out of 12 for me, too! Thank you for allowing me to somehow justify all those hours spent watching movies. My life has meaning now…

A miserable 6/12. This just tells me that I need to quit my job so I can watch more movies.

12 of 12. Things to do tomorrow: 1) Get a life.

8 for 12. but in my defense, feathers mcgraw only stole ONE diamond and borrowed the pants…(to steal the diamond)

12 for 12 does that mean Danny Ocean (either one) will let me join in on the fun?

12 for 12…. not sure what that says about me.
posted by Rodger on 10-12-2007 at 11:44 am
10 for 12 because I mixed up the Ocean’s. For shame!

Lucky guesses – 12 of 12, and I’ve only seen 7 of them.

Hmm….1
Lol need to get more time on my hands, my job takes too much!!

Woohoo, 12 for 12 and proud of it.
Working midnights with a free blockbuster pass was well worth it.

9 out 12 – pretty good for only seeing one of these movies!
posted by Melodye on 11-16-2007 at 4:12 pm
10 of 12 and I have seen only 5 of them.
posted by johanne on 11-24-2007 at 9:12 pm
100% Umm. Okay, so I love movies too much, and my memory is waaay too long, but I feel good about the lucky guesses.
posted by Angela on 11-28-2007 at 11:58 am
100% here too.. I’ve actually seen only like half these movies but I had vague ideas and did some sort of process of elimination considering the actors and the heist target.
posted by Kate on 12-4-2007 at 11:17 pm
I got 10 out of 12, too. Not bad since I’ve only seen 4 of these flicks, and I must have seen the last one at least 5 years ago. The other three I haven’t seen in over 10 years.

What is a heist film list without Rififi?
posted by Richard on 12-18-2007 at 1:38 pm
10/12
Not bad considering I had only seen one of the movies.
posted by Amanda on 1-24-2008 at 12:25 pm
Gah this quiz brought back so many great memories of heist films, Even the new ones like Oceans3… Remember a fish called wanda? By far best diamond heist film yet.

10 out of 12. I guess I should see Die Hard again.

7 out of 10.
what about 3000 miles to graceland? one of my faves.
the ususal suspects is awesome!!!
posted by motorkitty on 7-10-2008 at 3:07 pm
100%, but I have to admit to some very good guessing on a few (who holds up trains but Sundance, and there’s no way DeNiro steals pants).
posted by Dale on 8-10-2008 at 2:32 pm
9/12, i’m not sure if this is not enoughof a life or too much of a life…but at least i have more to do with my time than watch movies so that i can score 100% on a movie quiz about heists…like reading books about heists. :)
