Framed: Wordle With No Words for Movie Nerds

[Johnny Unusual]

How long has this been going on? I did not know about this at all.

Framed - The daily movie guessing game

Guess the movie from 6 frames. Come back each day to see if you can guess the daily movie, or visit the archive to answer the days that you missed!

framed.wtf

 

[Issun]

Wow. I managed to get today's in two.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

It took me three. And I had seen the movie this year.

 

[YangusKhan]

Wow. I managed to get today's in two.

Same! I haven't ever seen the movie either. I'll try to remember this game and see how well I do.

 

[ASandoval]

I've been playing this one for a bit. It's really fun and I kind of wish I could do more than one a day (also got today's in two and I hadn't seen the movie in years)! Although some of them have been really tricky whereas others I get in one or two not because I feel like I'm just that good, but because the order of the hints put some obvious ones in front of less obvious ones. The Groundhog's Day one for example putting the iconic analog clock close up before a generic city skyline shot sticks out in my head, for example.

My brother (who is the biggest movie buff in our entire family) has been playing this, and it was fun using Google and feeding him clues about the movies the other day.

 

[Becksworth]

Took me five guesses, but I've never even seen that movie, so hah.

 

[JBear]

I don't know movies for shit and have the memory of a goldfish, but I also got today's in two somehow.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Took me a while to get todays because there are so many similar looking movies. I guessed around it but it took me a while to get it.

Got it in three (and narrowly missed getting it in two). Get on my level. Maybe you should try watching more movies, Johnny.

 

[YangusKhan]

I'm not sure what it would take for me to fail this game. These screenshots are curated I assume? Because they're being pretty generous with giving out some obvious ways to narrow it down after only a couple guesses.

 

[Becksworth]

And got today's on first guess, despite again never seeing it before.

It's good but my least favourite of the Sergio Leone movies. Yojimbo, the film it is basically a remake of, is better.

 

[zonetrope]

I wish this had a "hell if I know" way to just forfeit your guess and just move on to the next clue without typing in a movie.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Type in some one letter movie titles.

M
O
Z
W
X

 

[Purple]

... well I got today's immediately.

You can submit an empty guess. I did this a few times for today's movie. Apparently it's been a while since I've seen it!

 

[Kirin]

Ditto. Love the movie, completely forgot about that particular bug.

 

[ThornGhost]

Yeah what was that bug!

 

[Kirin]

Contrariwise, I don’t know today’s movie at all.

 

[ASandoval]

I hate that I got today's movie on the first shot.

If you know, you know.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

I no-scoped today's as well.

 

[JBear]

It took me two, but it certainly feels like a carefully curated first shot.

Anyway, I don't know what list of movies this is using, but I was going to try Amadeus for today's first guess but it's not a valid choice.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Same. It was a movie I had scene but I didn't get it until #4. No shade on whoever is choosing shots, as they are doing the exact right job.

 

[jpfriction]

Glitched out in me and showed the last shot first until I reloaded so that helped quite a bit.

Still tried amadeus as my first real guess assuming I had just accidentally seen a shot from an unrelated movie.

 

[Torzelbaum]

tried amadeus as my first real guess

I did the same but didn't encounter a glitch.

I am surprised at how well I am able to get some of these (even if I have to Google or wiki to find the exact name after I have figured out how to figure out what the movie is).

 

[Kirin]

I also tried the same first guess as everyone else today - it lets you input it, but it doesn’t show up in the auto complete search.
I haven’t actually seen the movie but I did finally get it after about 4 shots from general context.

 

[JBear]

I also tried the same first guess as everyone else today - it lets you input it, but it doesn’t show up in the auto complete search.

I mean, you can input any string of characters you want, but since it didn't init cap it for me I assume it didn't "take"

 

[Johnny Unusual]

I guessed anyway, just on case there was an error in the system of some kind.

 

[JBear]

Got my first loss yesterday (too many ape movies), which was frankly long overdue, but then got today's (May 2nd) on my 1st guess!
