AdminGodzillaSep-03-2014 7:42 PMIn the spirit of keeping the forum alive I've decided to add to the plethora of games and contests that have become so popular around here. This is a little different though.
RULES:
The Godzilla (and related movies) Soundtrack Challenge is a game where you listen to a 30 second clip from any given Godzilla movie and answer a select number of the following questions:
-
WHAT MOVIE IS THE TRACK FROM? - The question is fairly simple. Type what movie you think the clip is from. This question will likely be attached to every clip.
-
WHAT COMPOSER DID THE PIECE? - If you got what track the movie is from, you'll likely get this. Type who you think the composer is. (Edit as of noon, 9/4: If there are multiple composers for the film you MUST at least guess which of the composers did the piece. Naming all of them will not get you a point.)
-
WHAT SCENE IS IT FROM? - Explain the scene from which the track happens. Although since some scores get repetitive this question will not be present for every clip.
-
WHOSE THEME IS IT? - If this question is asked, write down whatever monster/character/military/weapon's theme it is.
Each question is worth one point, unless stated otherwise. Keep in mind, not all of these questions will be asked for each clip, so make sure you read the questions before answering to the newest clip. Also remember some of these clips will not be from Godzilla movies, but films from the same creators/genre.
The person who first answers the questions correctly gets points. If a member only gets some of the answers right, the next member to reply has a chance to earn points from the questions the previous poster got wrong. If all of the questions are not correctly answered 24 hours after the clip is posted no one will get points for the unanswered/incorrectly answered question(s). At that point the next clip will be posted and a new round will begin.
Multiple answers for a single question in a member's post will be ignored completely. If you create a latter post with different answers for the same round your previous answers will be ignored in favor of your new ones.
Test rule: AFTER A MEMBER GETS AN ANSWER RIGHT, THEY SIT OUT THE NEXT ROUND AS TO NOT MONOPOLIZE THE GAME. IF MULTIPLE MEMBERS GET THE ANSWERS TO A SINGLE ROUND EVERYONE WHO CORRECTLY ANSWERED MUST SIT OUT THE NEXT ROUND. The players may return to the round after the one they sit out.
If/when the questions are answered correctly I'll reply to the thread and announce the winner of those questions. The next clip will be posted at a random time both as a new post and in this original post. If I've yet to reply to a thread it means I'm either late or no one has gotten them right. So keep guessing until a winner is announced.
The member with the most points by midnight of September 30th, 2014 will be declared the winner and receive a small, undisclosed prize from me. Runner-up prizes will also be awarded. Scores will be updated periodically here:
Have at it.

TheGMan123
MemberTitanosaurusSep-05-2014 12:53 PMOkay, ummm......... movie I believe is Godzilla vs King Ghidorah, composer is Akira Ifikube, theme is Godzilla's, and the scene is him climbing up onto shore after our "heroes" find out he's not only alive, but bigger and badder than ever before, and he's getting ready to face King Ghidorah.

TheGMan123
MemberTitanosaurusSep-05-2014 2:06 PMHmmm.........
Movie is GMK, composer is Akira Ifukube, scene is when Godzilla first rises out of the water near the fishing boat, theme is Godzilla's and King Ghidorah's. I hope :P

The King of the Monsters
MemberMothra LarvaeSep-05-2014 2:08 PMAh, my favorite theme in GMK, "Godzilla's Rage". It plays when Ghidorah is revived by Mothra's spirit and floats up into the sky to challenge Godzilla. It contains the main theme for the movie, as well as parts of Mothra and King Ghidorah's themes. Gojira2k already got the composer correct so I won't bother repeating it.
"When man falls into conflict with nature, monsters are born." - Professor Hayashida, The Return of Godzilla

The King of the Monsters
MemberMothra LarvaeSep-05-2014 2:10 PMOf course, this particular clip picks up after Mothra's theme is played, so it only contains Ghidorah's theme and the main theme.
"When man falls into conflict with nature, monsters are born." - Professor Hayashida, The Return of Godzilla

G. H. (Gman)
AdminGodzillaSep-05-2014 2:17 PMT'was looking for "Godzilla's theme" for this particular film, but since it is technically also the main theme I'm going to give people credit for that as well. It seems fair.
Gojira2k gets 4 points for the movie, composer and both themes.
The King of the Monsters nailed the scene for 1 point.
I'm also giving TheGman123 1 point for actually saying what I was looking for: Godzilla's Theme.
Round complete.

G. H. (Gman)
AdminGodzillaSep-05-2014 2:23 PM1) WHAT MOVIE IS THE TRACK FROM?
2) WHAT COMPOSER DID THE PIECE?
3) WHOSE THEME IS IT?

The King of the Monsters
MemberMothra LarvaeSep-05-2014 2:25 PM1) King Kong vs. Godzilla
2) Akira Ifukube
3) King Kong's Theme
