Science Fiction Trivia Contest

Ivan Seeking

I don't know if this will work, but I thought we might try something a little different. As with other contests, get the answer, ask the next question, but the difficult part is to give a clue or clues that would not be easily searchable. So, only one or a few keys words should be used that in themselves would act as a clue to the well-informed. The clue should be distinct enough to act as a pointer, but should not have any specific reference to the sci-fi series, movie, or book being implicity referenced.

I'll start with one that should be fairly easy.

What happens if you blink?

MotoH

The statues can move!

Ivan Seeking

Correct! The Weeping Angels, Dr. Who. You're up.

Also, as is normally done, in the event that we have no good guesses, we need to allow for additional clues if requested.

MotoH

the Kast was an imposter with no virtues or loyalty.

Ivan Seeking

Crud, I have no idea!

Borek

Googlable.

MotoH

Shall I give another hint?

MotoH

I will give it until tonight at 10pm and I will put up a new riddle.

MotoH

You've got it!

Your turn!

Borek

I have to go to sleep, so to post something fast - something I have ready for reasons other than SF.

Ivan Seeking

Fantasy Island?
The Island of Doctor Moreau?

Borek

No. Hint:



This is taken from here. And the first picture on the page - the one with white shark - is related as well.

Borek

Yes. I knew that reusing an old picture I am risking someone will spot it, but I was too to think about something new.

Andre

I see, anyway, let's keep the next one as a visual clue as well.

What kind of music was played in Hotel Martinet?
