So what’s the clue’s about?

  1. Monday: Groundhog Day | Columbia Pictrures

  2. Tuesday: Spy Game | Universal Pictures

  3. Wednesday:  A Shot at Glory | Mojo

  4. Thursday: Liar Liar | Universal Pictures

  5. Friday: The King of Palma | Cast [OR] Taking of Pelham (One two and Three)

So here are some of the ones I think are going to come this week.  Although I am sure there are some that I didn’t think about.  That is why your comments on what you think these clues are will help everyone who comes to this blog.  Leave a comment if you know a clue and we will discuss it.  If your right I’ll be sure to give credit to where credit is due.  Let’s get a full discussion of these clues so we can figure this out before Monday!!

*Keep coming back for updates, I will update every day if there is something to update*

*Saturday*

UPDATE: These are all Anagrams, so I changed these around to to show what they really are.  I didn’t think of an anagram.  Thanks to all who left comments.  if anyone can figure out the other two let me know.  I haven’t figure out two of them.  Thanks to all the people who have helped solved this puzzle!!  Great job all of you!!

*Sunday*

The Anagram “A Flake Mop Thing” is been vexing me to the fullest.  I looked in several different online solvers and still can’t come up with anything that is remotely a name of a movie or show that is in the US.  If it’s not going to be in the US I will have to make a robot to do all combination lookup for IMDB.  I’ll do a little more searching.  If someone figures it out, leave a comment for everyone else.

*Monday*

Jim in the comments figured this title out.  I really don’t know anything about this film but if you unmix the anagram that is one of them.  I think this is an independent film, so I am unsure who is distributing it here.  IMDB brings up nothing!!!

*Tuesday*

Yep, it was my bad.  I didn’t realize that the movie someone suggested didn’t have no F.  If someone else figures out the movie for Friday let me know.  I’d like to know what it is before hand.  I’ve tried several different Anagram solvers and still nothing.

*Update #2*

So after having a rough morning this morning.  I have decided that there is two possibilities the first of course was the  original one we thought of.  The second was suggested and It might be possible.  The name of this suggestion is Taking of Pelham any other ideas as to this one?

*Wednesday*

So it was a new show for today and not the movie.  I did not know they had that out.  What do you think?

*Thursday*

It was supposed to be “Liar Liar” so now we have to wait and see.  This morning I look and it says upcoming Hulu Debut.  So I will find out like the rest of you.  I am hoping, this is a system error!! I think it was a system error it seems to be fixed!!

*Friday*

The final one was “Taking of Pelham One Two and Three”.  Great Job everyone.  Now lets get the ready for the next set of clues!!!

  1. monday is an anagram “Hungry Dog Ado ” which comes out to be Groundhog Day… i dont know about the rest. thats the only one i have looked up…

  4. The Clues this week are anagrams. I don't have them all figured out..

    Hungry Dog Ado — Groundhog Day
    Same Gyp — Game Spy
    Oh Salt Rag Toy — ??? (But definitely not rags to riches)
    Rail lair — Liar, Liar (this is the one that gave away we're doing anagrams)
    A Flake Mop Thing — ??

  5. They're anagrams. Unscramble the letters to spell the actual title.

    Example: “same gyp” -> “spy game”

  6. they're anagrams

    monday – groundhog day
    tuesday – spy game
    wednesday – ??
    thursday – liar liar
    friday – ??

  7. Umm I think those are anagrams, i can see three of them:
    1. groundhog day
    2. spy game
    3. ?
    4. Liar Liar
    5. ?

  8. I hope this isn't a stupid idea but are the clues supposed to be anagrams? For instance, “Rail Lair” can be rearranged into “Liar Liar” and “Same Gyp” could be “Spy Game”….maybe?

  9. …going along with my Anagram idea “Hungry Dog Ado” would be “Ground Hog Day”.

  10. I think their possibly anagrams
    Monday: Groundhog Day
    Tuesday: Spy Game
    Wednesday:
    Thursday: Liar Liar
    Friday:

    Wednesday and Friday I can't figure out

  12. I've searched through all of the MGM list and the Universal list (as well as the associated Rogue and Focus), and none have a movie title that corresponds to 'A Flake Mop Thing'.

    The anagram server seems to be kicking out the following words with some frequency:

    -king
    -knight
    -flame
    -fake

    …but nothing is working out. Could it be BBC distributed?

  13. I'm thinking someone needs to create a bot and do a IMDB look up for each and everyone anagram that comes out!!! It is bound to find something sooner or later. You might be right, it might be a BBC distribution if that's the case we will need to figure out the language first wouldn't we?

  14. Did you check for episodic shows? Or we you looking at movies alone? Just thought of this is this a show and not a movie?

  16. Update: I've looked through two of the main lists on Sidereel: the TV list and the Movie list, and nothing is turning up.

    Is it possible that there's a misspelling in the anagram?

  17. What about something with the word “night”? That would seem common enough. Hrm.

  21. The problem with Taking of Pelham is that “one two three” is part of the title, as well. I don't know if that's really a problem with this or not, but it's something to consider.

  22. I'm confused. What do you mean by no “F”? The word “of” has an F in it? Sunday night all I could come up with as well was “The King of Palma”.

  24. I'm confused. What do you mean by no “F”? The word “of” has an F in it? Sunday night all I could come up with as well was “The King of Palma”.

  26. I'm confused. What do you mean by no “F”? The word “of” has an F in it? Sunday night all I could come up with as well was “The King of Palma”.
