Emoji quiz (part 3)

It's becoming kind of a tradition on the Charles Fudgemuffin blog to feature an emoji quiz every year for World Emoji Day, and this year is no different!

This year the categories are movies, websites, bands, and books. There's also a bonus point up for grabs if you can guess why July 17th was chosen as the day to celebrate World Emoji Day. (Here's a clue... 📅)

Category 1: Movies

To start things off, the movie category includes some classic movies. A not-so-classic movie also made the list.

Category 1: Movies

Award yourself a bonus point if you can guess the not-so-classic movie.

Editor's note: "Charles, you're being very generous
with all these bonus points."
Charles: "That's just the generous kind of guy I am."

There were movies from various eras, so hopefully everyone should have worked out at least one or two of the clues.

2) 🗡️🏃‍♂️  Blade Runner

3) (🧭😩)🌌  Lost In Space

4) 🤐🐑🐑  The Silence Of The Lambs

5) 😇😈👹  The Good, The Bad And The Ugly

The answer to the incredibly tricky question 6 was facebook.

Editor's note: "I actually found number 6 quite easy."
Charles: "Wow! You must be extremely clever!
Either that or it was sarcasm."
