Come on, there isn't NEARLY enough time here, especially as we have to type the ENTIRE FILM NAME out! There are some really long names on the list. Surely you can accept shortened versions of some! I know all of these, but only managed to get 43 because I was having to type the whole damn titles out all the time!

This is a great quiz. I finally got them all.

A couple suggestions: You accept just "Judas" for "Judas and the Black Messiah" ... could you also accept some abbreviations such as just "Butch Cassidy" or "Three Coins"

And/or some where the name of the song is the same as the movie, maybe don't show the whole movie name like

You light up my ____ or Three _____ in the fountain. Also leave out Flashdance, Arthur, and High Noon from the movie titles since there's more to them.

And maybe be more forgiving on the spelling of Poseidon for Poseidon Adventure

Thanks for considering!

Thank you for your suggestions! I already incorporated those.

I especially like your suggestion to "censor" song titles that contain the movie title in them if it has additional words in them. I purposely did not "censor" such titles if there are no additional words in them because there wouldn't be any hint left. I also think in a way, it's cheekier to leave it as is.

Glad that you got them all despite some inconveniences. Happy New Year!

The Pixar songs are well deserved.

It's amazing to see how famous some of these songs remain, had no idea "Take My Breath Away" was from that movie!
