Hey, BBB! Good move.

Other movies to consider (not repeating the ones from epi3, er, epi2 plus): Tom Jones, Oliver!, Chariots of Fire (pork and champagne--that'll keep the judges happy).

A funny thought just jumped into my small brain..... I have not seen the previews for tonights epi... but what if they can only use things from the snack bar area for the challenge but have to make it up scale? I mean what could one make with just pop corn, fake butter, candy or nachos?

Hmmmmm..... blink.gif

And each one had to go with a different movie... would be like the Grand Vending Machine Challenge..... ohmy.gif

And to repeat, the standings, going into tonight's episode, are:

+6
Richard

+5
Andrew

+4
Stephanie

+3
Antonia, Jennifer, Manuel, Mark

+2
Lisa

0
Zoi

-1
Nikki

-3
Dale, Spike, Valerie (eliminated)

-4
Nimma (eliminated)

-6
Ryan

-9
Erik (eliminated)

Cheftestants get:

+1 point for each Quickfire honorable mention

+2 points for each Quickfire win

+3 points for each Elimination honorable mention

+4 points for each Elimination win

-1 points for each Quickfire dishonorable mention

-3 points per time up for Elimination

-4 points if actually eliminated

For team or head-to-head challenges, a cheftestant has to be singled out for special praise or criticism to receive or lose points.

Richard, for example, received no points for the Block Party challenge, even though his team won; aside from Stephanie (who won the overall challenge), the only Blue to get any points was Antonia, since her dish was specifically mentioned as one of the best.

Likewise, Jennifer didn't lose any points in the Week One head-to-head, since the judges made it clear that they liked her dish almost as much as Nikki's, and Zoi didn't win any in the same challenge, even though she out-souffléd Erik.

But you're showing Zoi with 0 points. Aren't there some negative points for "negative Elimination comments" or "close to Elimination?" That's what Zoi got with the pasta salad and Ryan got with the chicken Waldorf salad.

Nope. She lost a point for being singled out as one of the worst pan pizzas in Week 1, and lost 3 points when she came close to being eliminated for her watery crab salad. Subtracting them from the 8 points she won for her two elimination wins, that puts her at 4.

My first serious boyfriend, in high school, was 1/2 Tex-Mex & 1/2 German. His dad was from San Antonio & met his mom while stationed in Germany. She didn't like me much because I was a skinny American girl. Boy was that a joke! I won't even go into what my name would have been had we married. Lets just say that Pam does not go with a real long Hispanic name that sounds like a South American Country...literally!

Amen on Richard. I bet he's a member of Lambda Lambda Lambda.
If Andrew is on meth give it to Manuel and Lisa quick cause unless they make waves they are not long for the world. Nice people and Middle of the pack food do not make for Happy Producers.
I believe Nikker perfers you calling her Lasagna Noodle.

Now if we can just get the Judges to get rid of one of the "Muffin Bakers" we'll be in business wink.gif

Food and movies are two of my

So in looking up stuff they actually have a movie and food trivia quiz....and a book on Amazon
entitled Movie and Food movie lists and F&W does one you kinda' watch...and here's one I hadn't heard anyone speak of and it came from a gay love site and it looks so lovely.
