Movie Dingbats

An entertaining quiz round featuring 10 Dingbats clues with letters and words arranged in an unusual way. The aim is to work out the titles of the 10 films that are being described by these clues.

For example, the first clue simply features the letters "NAMTAB". With hopefully not too much effort, teams should be able to see that this is simply "BATMAN" spelt backwards and is therefore describing the film "Batman Returns". There are a few other clues that are also fairly straightforward in this round, but there are also some which are much more challenging and require a lot of lateral thinking to work out the movie titles behind them.

All of the movies are well known and as an added clue, the years in which they were first released are given in the top left corner of each clue.

It is recommended that this round is used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them click here
