Congrats to bunkaroo, and thanks to Crocker for running the game with... well, it was a new idea anyway!

I would take pride in not knowing bad movies enough to do better in this game, but I did about the same as any other game. The good news is that I think I had only one slam canceled out by the "twist," but most of the rest were canceled out by my own crappy answers.

The movie was directed by the great Arthur Hill (The Warriors, 48Hours, Deadwood), who did have his name removed from the credits. unfortunately for mwbmis, by the time that happened, the DGA had "retired" the Alan Smithee pseudonym, he was credited as "Thomas Lee" instead.

Due to the precise wording of the question, I must, with a heavy heart, mark this incorrect.

Walter Hill

A tv edit was Smithee.. I thought he took his name off it for a while (the video release) but I was wrong...

Congrats to bunkaroo, and thanks Mr. Crocker for the awesome game!

It did. But none of you other bastards voted for it, just me.

Didn't see that hidden in the spoiler. FWIW, it was my second choice, though I know that does you no good.
