Hi everybody! And welcome to what I hope is too polarising or tough of a hunt for a long, hot and/or wet July. This is the 28th Official Letterboxd Scavenger Hunt. Thank you to Evan Whitford for taking care of all of you last month. Now this month. I have poured out some research, pride, personality and personal details in order to give you these 31 tasks. It's been a hot 2 weeks (technically the last two days were the hottest) trying to sort it out for the bloody lot of you! But now, it's here and I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts, even if I am unable to operate on my own hunt, because I am a juror for the Drunken Film Festival in Bradford. ( www.drunkenfilmfest.com )

Original Master List: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/jesushmacy/list/scavenger-hunt-master-list/
This hunt: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/iammrdexb/list/a-very-prideful-birthday-month-scavenger/

Whilst it's not special, it's just not regular enough neither and you are getting a chance which I have never got neither. If you complete this list, your achievement will appear on my profile permanently.

A reminder of the rules: When you've watched each film, you have to write a review as proof. In order to make your review visible and easy to find, you can tag it under "scavenger hunt", "scavenger hunt 28" or alternatively "scavenger hunt july 2017".

Some rules should be enclosed on Wood's master list. ( letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/jesushmacy/list/scavenger-hunt-master-list/ ) In the rare case that you can't find a new film for a task, unless you want to rewatch, or you are struggling with a task, please let me know in the comments.

Meanwhile, here are the 31 tasks. Please look at the notes for more very informal details.:

1. Romance. Cruising. Loud music. Cocktails. Summer time is always the best time for Pride season. So let us begin. (Pick a film that features a representation of the LGBT+ community. Sees how it feels to be us when coming out of the closet, to your family and friends, hopefully ending happy and desperately seeking visions for happiness and closure through this list for example: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/yung_narcissus/list/queer-essentials-for-the-newly-initiated/ )

2. Sheffield Doc Fest was where I was working and thankfully, I will try to open up more to documentaries as a result. Plus Louie Theroux happened to be there, talking to Nick Broomfield. (I didn’t meet him because I was still off resting Sunday.) (Pick a unseen film from his Twelve Terrific Documentaries. letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/philipkennedy/list/louis-therouxs-twelve-terrific-documentaries )

3. We all know that we love to sing and listen along to songs, but film stars should never miss out. (Pick a film that sung a song on a “Sung by the Movies” video: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ9yYLt3G9zhM2DerWVxDD23VVyONkpyI )

4. I am not American but how could I let Americans miss out on a public holiday-themed task? Donald Trump might miss out, but only because I know he has missed out a lot of Pride season. (Pick a film featuring events from or celebrating the 4th of July. )

5. Nostalgia Critic is known for taking the piss out of average to bad films, but sometimes he can get serious by talking about feelings for certain films, or just use this fortnightly series as an excuse to have a sketch-less Top 11 countdown. Poor Tamara/Rachel and Malcolm, much better intellect! (Pick a film that was featured on a episode of Nostalgia Critic Editorials.)

6. With me being diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, or Autism Spectral Disorder, I am proud to advocate for all of these, or rather us, people on the spectrum. (Pick an autism-related film, excluding those sponsored by Autism Speaks. Examples here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_about_autism )

7. Autism is one of the disabilities and mental holdbacks that is eligible under the Disability Living Allowance, replaced by the Personal Independence Payment, in the UK. But controversially, some may not want it to be seen as their main focus, or they just choose not to. (Pick a film where characters’ disability is not seen as the main focus.)

8. Siskel and Ebert was one of the most famous and popular duos on television, with an unusual trait, film reviewing. But all of the focus has obviously been on Ebert since he has lived longer and sadly ed away recently. But Siskel has just got your attention right now! (Pick a film that was featured on Gene Siskel's Best Ten from 1969 to 1998: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/eiganerd/list/gene-siskel-best-ten-lists-1969-1998/ )

9. July 9th 1995 is my birthday. (Simply pick a film from my birth year 1995 or to get even closer to my birthday, from July 1995. I will allow films that were delayed over from 1994 for a certain country, since for example, some of us didn’t see Toy Story until 1996!)

10. Ivica Pusticki has recently finished his ambiguous list of “Films You Must See Before You Die” with your help, in a record breaking five months. (To celebrate, let’s use it for its very purpose by picking a unseen film from this list: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/ivica_pusticki/list/finished-project-1001-movies-you-must-see/ )

11. Sometimes, you need to trust your instinct and the instinct of other of Letterboxd. Unlike other notable “Before You Die” lists like this, several films reach 3.2 or under, currently 68 to choose from to be exact. (Pick a film from that very same list with the “Lowest Score First”, 3.2 or under. No films 3.3 or over allowed! letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/ivica_pusticki/list/finished-project-1001-movies-you-must-see/by/rating-lowest/)

12. Rewind to 2012, I was literally rooting for a certain song going No. 1, released post-album, Titanium by a happy Français chappie (at least on his music videos) David Guetta and a shy, yet incredibly powerful sounding Sia. (Pick a film with a song by David Guetta and/or Sia as soundtrack.)

13. Alive, but only just. There are many people each year who goes through traumatic treatment only to be put onto a waiting list. (In tribute to those waiting or those who have made it, watch a film featuring a case of organ donation.)

14. Only 3 months to this day since Season 11 came out (April 14th) and there is no sign of a DVD release just yet but still, especially since I'm a member of the Revival League there should never be a bad time to not give this task. (Choose a film from MST3K Season 11, unriffed or riffed. If all of them are watched and/or you are not the obsessive rewatcher of Avalanche or Starcrash, see if you can pick a unseen film from MST3K.)

15. Your 15th birthday and you realise that you have 20-something films from this list you never watched as a child. Too old, too late? Bugger off! NEVER! (Pick a film from “BFI Films to watch before you’re 14”: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/martinrj/list/bfi-50-films-to-see-before-youre-14/ )

16. It is the common family to have a dog, cat, bird, pig etc, either instead of romance or complete peace and quiet, usually sacrificed for the kids. (Film featuring a person or family and an animal as a companion.)

17. Now, this was my situation at age 17. Whether you are part of a family unit or you only watch films on your own, you know you are in good hands when there is much less violence, sex and drugs than what society pushes you to watch, a.k.a. all you have here is your inner child. But you might find a new and good one to watch from here. (Pick an unseen family film rated 3.3 or higher.)

18. However, you do not realise that every child, even an inner child, becomes a fan of something you instantly regret. WARNING: Contrary to public opinion, not every bad family film features Adam Sandler. (Pick a unseen family film rated 3.2 or lower.)

19. Born on October 19th, ate dog shit from March 17th, disgusting when alive for the next 42 years, Divine eternally. (A film featuring Harris Glenn Milstead a.k.a. Divine.)

20. This is a idea that makes me curious. We all know the Soviet Union, or the USSR, as the country of Stalin, but most of it became Russia. What did the rest of the Union look like? (Pick a film made in the Soviet Union, but outside of Russia, during the existence of the Soviet Union.)

21. At 21, University is a pain. There is no such thing as being an adult here. In fact, you can expect all of your nervous breakdowns to be here. (Pick a film set in College or University. Bonus points if you find one with main characters being teetotal or less drunk than others, which is my current situation.)

22. I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22. Gawd, I miss my hometown! (Pick a film that was filmed or set in Blackpool, or much closer to home and much rarer, Fleetwood.)

23. Liza Minnelli was only 23 when her mother Judy Garland sadly ed away in 1969. I was going to host in June 2019 so this could have been more powerful but.... let’s pay tribute anyway. (Pick a film starring Judy Garland)

24. It is the first UNESCO City of Film and the University city I happen to be living in. And when you are midway to the underground tunnel from the Science + Media Museum to the City Park or to the N car park, there's a chance that you can see a film you've chosen covered in the art on the walls. (Pick a film that was filmed or set in Bradford.)

25. Doctor Who is one of the most extensive sci-fi shows of all time and featured 12 actors in the main role: The Doctor. Fortunately, unlike stars of other TV shows, the stars should have been on plenty of films for you to find. (Pick a film, excluding Doctor Who stories, featuring an actor who previously played The Doctor on Doctor Who. Worried about tiring from too much time travel? Here's a helpful list from oh_dae_su: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/oh_dae_su/list/the-doctors-who/ )

26. The ONLY composer you could relax, chill, get horrified by drug police, fall in love to or have the time of your life dancing to I Feel Love at a rave. (Pick a film featuring Giorgio Moroder as film composer or soundtrack.)

27. Britain. Britain. Britain. The rousing words of former Doctor Who Tom Baker as he announces a surreal announcement for Little Britain, but what about the film efforts of the two main stars? (Pick a film featuring David Walliams and/or Matt Lucas)

28. The United Kingdom might be well known for the odd hit comedy or drama, but there was a time when they potentially had a film industry to rival Hollywood. (Pick a British silent film that was made during the silent era. If you’re struggling for examples, the best examples for me come from the documentary Silent Britain: www.imdb.com/title/tt0816827/trivia?tab=mc&ref_=tt_trv_cnn )

29. The Scavenger Hunt is probably one of the main focuses on Letterboxd, other than new films. But when you add new challenges of 28-31 for a month, 33 for a weekly TV-styled season and a whopping 52-55 weekly for a whole year, it’s most likely that you will get exhausted, you become lazy and/or distracted and you miss out. Basically, me, but I’m hoping you have had this experience yourself. (Pick a film from a uncompleted task on a Scavenger Hunt-styled challenge, other than the Scavenger Hunt. If you’ve never done it somehow, look for a random film challenge and pick your favourite task from it.)

30. This list by desdemoor that I have chosen to showcase quotes “The films in this list appear in the most recent (2012) Sight and Sound critics' top 250 but have not yet appeared in the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, so presumably film lovers can die happy without ever glimpsing a frame of them.” Well, how dare you! Of course we couldn’t! (Pick a film that appeared on BFI Critics Poll but not on 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/desdemoor/list/sight-and-sound-critics-picks-that-you-dont/ )</b

31. 31 is the number the Carry On series reached in 1992, which is good for a series that was said to be beaten by the “Confessions” series, which always air on ITV3 almost every bank holiday weekend. There are some really good, and some a bit bad, but all of them are a bit too big for their bras. And fling and in. (Pick a film from the Carry On series.)

1. Mulholland Drive

   1. Romance. Cruising. Loud music. Cocktails. Summer time is always the best time for Pride season. So let us begin. (Pick a film that features a representation of the LGBT+ community. Sees how it feels to be us when coming out of the closet, to your family and friends, hopefully ending happy and desperately seeking visions for happiness and closure through this list for example: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/yung_narcissus/list/queer-essentials-for-the-newly-initiated/ )

2. Dont Look Back

   2. Sheffield Doc Fest was where I was working and thankfully, I will try to open up more to documentaries as a result. Plus Louie Theroux happened to be there, talking to Nick Broomfield. (I didn’t meet him because I was still off resting Sunday.) (Pick a unseen film from his Twelve Terrific Documentaries. letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/philipkennedy/list/louis-therouxs-twelve-terrific-documentaries )

3. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

   3. We all know that we love to sing and listen along to songs, but film stars should never miss out. (Pick a film that sung a song on a “Sung by the Movies” video: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ9yYLt3G9zhM2DerWVxDD23VVyONkpyI )

4. Born on the Fourth of July

   4. I am not American but how could I let Americans miss out on a public holiday-themed task? Donald Trump might miss out, but only because I know he has missed out a lot of Pride season. (Pick a film featuring events from or celebrating the 4th of July. )

5. The Cell

   5. Nostalgia Critic is known for taking the piss out of average to bad films, but sometimes he can get serious by talking about feelings for certain films, or just use this fortnightly series as an excuse to have a sketch-less Top 11 countdown. Poor Tamara/Rachel and Malcolm, much better intellect! (Pick a film that was featured on a episode of Nostalgia Critic Editorials.)

6. Asperger's Are Us

   6. With me being diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, or Autism Spectral Disorder, I am proud to advocate for all of these, or rather us, people on the spectrum. (Pick an autism-related film, excluding those sponsored by Autism Speaks. Examples here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_about_autism )

7. Blue Velvet

   7. Autism is one of the disabilities and mental holdbacks that is eligible under the Disability Living Allowance, replaced by the Personal Independence Payment, in the UK. But controversially, some may not want it to be seen as their main focus, or they just choose not to. (Pick a film where characters’ disability is not seen as the main focus.)

8. Broadcast News

   8. Siskel and Ebert was one of the most famous and popular duos on television, with an unusual trait, film reviewing. But all of the focus has obviously been on Ebert since he has lived longer and sadly ed away recently. But Siskel has just got your attention right now! (Pick a film that was featured on Gene Siskel's Best Ten from 1969 to 1998: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/eiganerd/list/gene-siskel-best-ten-lists-1969-1998/ )

9. Get Shorty

   9. July 9th 1995 is my birthday. (Simply pick a film from my birth year 1995 or to get even closer to my birthday, from July 1995. I will allow films that were delayed over from 1994 for a certain country, since for example, some of us didn’t see Toy Story until 1996!)

10. Chinatown

    10. Ivica Pusticki has recently finished his ambiguous list of “Films You Must See Before You Die” with your help, in a record breaking five months. (To celebrate, let’s use it for its very purpose by picking a unseen film from this list: letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/ivica_pusticki/list/finished-project-1001-movies-you-must-see/ )

Scavenger Hunt 13 – April 2016
It's the 1 year anniversary of the Scavenger Hunt!
letterboxd.sitesdebloques.org/pleinsoleil/list/scavenger-hunt-13-april-2016/

In honor of spring, I want to help you do some spring cleaning on your own personal queues and watchlists, as well as taste some films and art movements you may not be well acquainted with. I originally made a list that included challenges like Shockumentaries and Verfremdungseffek but realized that may be really alienating to a lot of people, so I hopefully found a good balance of incorporating art/obscure cinema but also approachable movies.

To see previous hunts and to keep track of future ones to come, head on over to the Master List created and updated by indomitable scavenger hunter Wooderson here.

What is a scavenger hunt?
Scavenger hunts are a popular and fun challenge undertaken by Letterboxd s where the aim for each participant is to watch and review 30 different films in the space of one month based on specific criteria. The host for each month crafts 30 different tasks that each participant must find a film for, ranging in variety and difficulty.

How do I participate?
All you have to do is create your own list that fills the criteria below and post it into the comments on this thread. Once you have done that I will add your name and your list up here, and once we get underway you simply have to watch and review each of your chosen films. Be sure to include a link back to this thread in each of your own lists so others can participate if they want to, and also make sure you number your lists so they can be cross-referenced easily. I would also recommend adding the respective tasks to the comments of each film on your list.

What other rules are there?
The majority of films you watch should have been previously unseen - personally I'd say at least 25 of the 30 - and all films (unless specified) must be feature-length (60+ mins). You can't use one film for more than one task and all reviews must be at least five sentences in length. You should also make it clear at the top of each review that you watched the film as part of this challenge.

Anything else?
Reviews in other languages are allowed, you can watch your chosen films in any order and you are allowed to change your list at any given time providing your choice meets the criteria.

What else can I do?
These scavenger hunts are designed to be community-based challenges so please take the time to read, comment and like the lists and reviews of others. It makes the whole shebang much more enjoyable if we all take the time to interact with one another. Also be sure to tag each of your lists and reviews with the "scavenger hunt" and "scavenger hunt 13" so others can find them with ease.

Here are the 30 tasks you must complete in the month of March to finish the challenge. I encourage you to have as few re-watches as possible. If you have any questions please post them in the comments below.

Good night, and good luck:

1. The most obscure/underseen film you can get your hands on.
2. The film which has been on your queue/watchlist/shelf for the longest.
3. A film widely considered one of the greatest of all time, which you have been putting off.
4. A film, which for whatever reason, you have pretended to see, but if you're actually being honest with yourself, you have never seen.
5. A film with a character who has the same profession as you. (students, try to find characters in the same grade)
6. A film whose tagline sticks with you.
7. A film about an election.
8. A film featuring political views you personally disagree with.
9. A film featuring religious/spiritual views you disagree with.
10. A film that was a hit before your mother was born.
11. A film shot geographically between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
12. A film with onomatopoeia in the title.
13. A film with a punctuation mark in the title.
14. A fictional film where an actor plays themselves.
15. A film featuring a cameo from a director who didn't direct the film. (ex. Truffaut in Close Encounters, Melville in Breathless, Michael Bay in Coyote Ugly)
16. A film with 2 or more directors.
17. A film with 3 or more writers.
18. A film directed by an AFI Alumni.
19. A film nominated for a Cesar Award for Best Film or Best Foreign Film.
20. A film which es the Mako Mori test.
21. A film with a budget under $1 million (adjusting for inflation)
22. A film with a budget over $150 million (adjusting for inflation)
23. A film about "low" art.
24. A film about "high" art.
25. A modernist film. (ex.:1,2, 3)
26. A postmodernist film. (ex.: 1,2, 3)
27. An Avant-Garde film. (ex.: 1,2,3)
28. A abstract animation short film. (ex. 1,2)
29. A film from a prominent artist outside of cinema.
30. A film from most recently posted list.

Good luck!!!

Hints:
- #6 - Pretty decent list of taglines here
- #11 - The film industries of China (Hong Kong), Mexico, Brazil, India, Nigeria, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Colombia, and sub-saharan Africa are all based in this area. Plus foreign movies are sometimes shot on location in the Amazon, African savanna, South Asia, or South Pacific.
- #16 - Technicolor films used to have several directors (Thief of Baghdad had 6!). Nowadays it's mostly creative partnerships.
- #17 - The idea of putting 3+ or more writers on a project started with 90s big-budget films and has only gotten more common. Especially if a writer's been fired off a film haha. Also look into book adaptations (which credit the story or novel, as well as adapters and/or screenwriters), and don't forget anthologies would work for these too :)
- #21 & #22 - Production Budgets by the numbers
- #28 - there are shorts all over youtube and vimeo.
- #30 - Check below in the comments, and pick the most current link to a person's list

(I will refrain from picking #30 for myself until a week into the month, to choose from the last person who 's list.)
