Stupidly difficult work quiz

[ApocalypseNowt]

Seasons greetings!

The stupidly difficult work quiz is back for those of you that remember (@rosegoldwatcher).

Basically there are a series of very hard puzzles to solve - each puzzle solve gives you a password to move onto the next stage.

I've already managed to solve stage one myself (go me!) but I've ground to a halt as usual on the second stage (which consists of 8 individual puzzles to solve).

Here's a couple of puzzles i'm stuck on - any help much appreciated!

Is there more @ApocalypseNowt ?

God I love this thread every year !

..and every year I don't have a clue what's going on !!

The rainbow question is the properties on a Monopoly board:

Red = Strand Fleet Steet Trafalgar Square

Orange = Bow Street Marlborough Street Vine Street

Yellow = Leicester Square Coventry Street Piccadilly

So Green = RS OS BS (Regent Street, Oxford Street, Bond Street)

Better check I have the order right though!

Oh! I'm far too slow!

Aargh! I look at Time's person of the year but I couldn't work it out. Durrr..... Willy Brandt is correct

Well done all and thank you! That's the meta stage done. On to stage 3 - just one puzzle here but there's quite a few images so i'll post it in 3 photos.

These are the films i've worked out so far:
1 Apocalpyse Now
2 Pan's Labyrinth
3 Memento
4
5
6 Unbreakable
7 Fight Club
8
9
10
11
12 The Big Lebowski
13
14
15 Alien(s)
16 The Ring?
17
18
19
20
21
22
23 Big Trouble in Little China
24 Enter the Dragon
25
26
27
28
29 Donnie Darko

11 is City of God

The one with Brooklyn bridge is Once Upon a time in America

Thank you!

20 is Gravity (i'm working left to right, top to bottom btw)

26 is (I think) Once Upon a Time in the West

5 is night crawler

22 is perespolis, I have the book and that is the cover art

8 is arrival

5 is Nightcrawler

21 and 22 (I think) are Howl's Moving Castle - cartoon with an old lady - and Persepolis - cartoon woman picturing her family.

Both brilliant films those two, not that you asked.

I know right. Last year by the time it took me to even look, some clever person had already worked it out.

I want to be friends with the guys that make this quiz....

And 9 is Vertigo

Only one I know is 8- Arrival

The one with the big face and the silhouette of a man with a gun is No Country For Old Men.

9 is Vertigo

You've probably worked this out but the end letters of the films will spell out a question (I think it begins "Who are...")

Is 18 Drive?

27 is detective pikachu
28 is zodiac

The one with the kid playing the guitar is Scott Pilgrim vs The World

Really enjoying the diverse film knowledge of MNers 😊

Yep, I'm on it GoldenCupidon. I've got a litte spreadsheet working it out for me as we go!
