Stop 1: Charades

No flavour here; this first puzzle was more of a fun warm-up than anything. The participants were given a hat with a bunch of charades and told to act them out. The charades were, in no particular order:

• AMERICAN BEAUTY (1999)
• CONTACT (1997)
• CINDERELLA (1950)
• THE DARK KNIGHT (2008)
• ELF (2003)
• INDEPENDENCE DAY (1996)
• ON THE WATERFRONT (1954)
• MAD MAX (1979)
• THE MUPPET MOVIE (1979)
• NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS (1993)
• TRAINING DAY (2001)
• UHF (1989)

All the charades were films, and the year of each film’s release was given on the slip of paper.
