LINK 2: LINK 4: TEAM NAME: Pastiche Picture Round - 2 pts per answer /24

Name the movies whose posters are being pastiched in the AAA Stand Up artwork (from Bound & Gagged). Clues as to word-length have been given crossword-style beneath each picture.

1. (10) 2. (3,8) 3. (3,3,8) 4. (4,4)

5. (3,4,3,3,3,3,4) 6. (5,2,3,4) 7. (3,5,6) 8. (3,4,2,4,6)

9. (8,6) 10. (4,4:6,1) 11. (4,6!) 12. (4,2,7)

NB Movie #5 was not as romcom/modern as this artwork makes out. Am assured that was deliberate.

In 2012, the AAA Stand-Up acts asked if they could eschew the film pastiches, and just have a poster where they looked good. The promoters agreed.

"All anyone had to do was ask."
