Welcome to the Scene it Bright Lights Big Screen Achievement Guide. This is my 2nd guide for this website you can view my other guide Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader on this site as well. If you are looking at the achievement list in the achievement tracker, some of the achievements are inaccurate and have not been updated to reflect those on xbox.com or on the Xbox dashboard itself. I have changed the achievement descriptions so they read as they do on Xbox.com and the Xbox dashboard. An example is on the achievement tracker it says for couch potato: Play 5 games in any mode, however, the real description is : Complete 5 games in Classic or Fast Fire.
There's one thing you want to remember for almost every achievement. ACCURACY OVER SCORE. Unless the achievement says YOU MUST GET 10,000 points do not worry about getting 10,000 points just worry about answering the question correctly. A good bulk of the achievement rely on accuracy which could be all 1 point answers. Do not rush the question on the accuracy achievements. This is about 10-15 hours for 905/1000G. The last 95 (400k in long game, flawless long game, and 500k in fast fire) depend on luck/skill.
ACHIEVEMENT GUIDE
Couch Potato - 10 points
Play 5 games in Classic or Fast Fire
See Video Store Clerk
Home Rentals - 20 points
Play 10 games in Classic or Fast Fire
See Video Store Clerk
Video Store Clerk - 30 points
Play 15 games in Classic or Fast Fire
For Couch Potato, Home Rentals, and Video Store Clerk all 3 achievements can be unlocked using the same method. While the achievement might read you can mix together Classic and Fast Fire to combine for 15 games, in reality that is not really the case. Therefore, to obtain this achievement you will have to play 15 games in EITHER Short game, Long game, or Fast Fire. This means that after 15 short games it will unlock you cannot play 5 short, 5 long, and 5 fast fire for the achievement.
The best advice is that the achievement will come over time (as you are getting the other achievements), however, I found a method that can help you get this achievement and as a bonus will unlock Sneak Preview. To do this method you will need a Madcatz Street Fighter IV Turbo Controller. Simply, start up a game of fast fire by your self and set the turbo to A. Tape down the a button and the game will go itself answering A for every question. It will ignore the buzzer questions, but you can just leave it there and don't have to do anything. It will automatically start another match and everything by having a turboed. This will guarantee your answer will receive maximum points (if A is correct) and in turn it will build up for the Sneak Preview Achievement, which requires you to get maximum points on 30 correct answers. This will also get you the 5, 10, and 15 games played achievement if you leave the turbo controller going long enough.
Short Film - 10 points
Play a Short Game
To do a short game simply select a classic game from the main menu and you can either choose short game or long game. For this achievement you must choose SHORT GAME. It does not matter if you win or not this achievement only requires that you complete it. However it can be stacked with many of the other achievements so I wouldn't really worry about this one since it will come along at some point while going for others
Bit Part - 10 points
Score 60,000 points in a Short Game
See background artist
Supporting Role - 20 points
Score 100,000 points in a Short Game
See background artist
Background Artist - 25 points
Score more than 200,000 points in a Short Game
Basically all they want you to do is score 200,000 points in a short game. This must be with your main profile and does not count if one of the other controllers scores it. The easiest way to obtain this achievement is to get a good amount of questions right. If you answer almost right away correctly each time you will get maximum points and have better odds of making it to this score. The star system also helps as well. Try to get the star meter to stop on your color and you will get 1.5 x the points. You can probably get about 7-8 questions wrong if the ones you get right are high enough in score so this achievement is a lot more lenient than the 400,000 in long game.
Epic Feature - 10 points
Play a Long Game
To do a long game simply select a classic game from the main menu and you can either choose short game or long game. For this achievement you must choose LONG GAME. It does not matter if you win or not this achievement only requires that you complete it. However it can be stacked with many of the other achievements so I wouldn't really worry about this one since it will come along at some point while going for others.
Star - 20 points
Score 100,000 points in a Long Game
See Lead Role
Award-Winning Performance - 10 points
Score 200,000 points in a Long Game
See Lead Role
Lead Role - 25 points
Score more than 400,000 points in a Long Game
This one is a little tougher as there is a lot less room for error. You will receive more questions which is a good thing, but you can probably only get a maximum of 5 questions wrong before being screwed out of the achievement. My highest so far is 313,000. I will update here if I pass it with some more tips.
Director - 20 points
Get 10 questions correct in a row in any game mode
See Producer
Producer - 40 points
Get 15 questions correct in a row in any game mode
This achievement might seem hard, but its not. After around about 3-4 long games questions will start repeating. Once this starts to happen try to build streaks on puzzle blocks you can memorize very well. For example, say you are good at sketches. You will want to try to memorize the sketches so when they come up you will be able to get 5/5 on them and build towards the streak. Once you are able to do that try to memorize some other puzzle blocks. This might sound overwhelming, but some questions repeat so often that it is easy to get a streak going when you know a good chunk of the answers. Puzzle blocks Hint Parade and Pop Quiz will give you 10 questions so getting 10/10 on there will get you more than half the way to the achievement. I find Sequentials and Strike a match very good for this, because you can keep guessing wrong and it is considered correct as long as you plug in the correct answer before the time runs out.
Soliloquist - 20 points
Correctly answer every Pop Quiz or Hint Parade question in one Puzzle Block
These two modes are very similar, but differ a little bit as well. The objective here is to get what usually is 10 questions correct out of 10 in either the Pop Quiz or Hint Parade Category.
Pop Quiz: In this mode you will be given an Actor, Actress or Director. The game will ask you about 10 movies they either starred in, directed or were involved in some way. The easiest way to get 10 here is to open up imdb.com and have the find option in Firefox or internet explorer enabled. From there, once the name comes up type it in real fast and you should be able to find the movies the actor, actress, or director was in. If its not on their resume than they were not in it. The questions will be phrased as: Tom Hanks Starred in Cast Away? A. True B. False. If you get all 10 of these right you get the achievement.
Hint Parade: This is similar except this time you really need to know the movie. The movie will be stated and then 10 things will be asked about it. Unlike Pop quiz this does not tie into just Actors Actresses or Directors. This could be a song that was in the movie, a prop, a piece of clothing, a restaurant, or anything. An example of one of them in the game is " Toy Story ? Claw Machine" This means it is asking you was there a claw machine in Toy Story 1? A. True B. False. Get all 10 of these right and you will get the achievement. Something VERY important in this mode is if they are asking you about Toy Story they mean Toy Story 1, if they ask you about Friday the 13th they only mean Friday the 13th Part1, they could trick you at times and put things in from other parts of the series that didn't occur in the part they are talking about. Therefore, it makes the Pop Quiz part easier to do flawlessly.
Casting Call - 15 points
Play a full game with each avatar
This one might sound simple, but it can be buggy. When you start up the game you will have the option of choosing a character. Hover, over the option and press A to select your character. The 12 characters are:
Starlet
Sci-Fi Cadet
Martial Artist
Horror Queen
Warrior
Super Hero
Leading Man
Action Hero
***Very Important*** When the game ends you need to allow it to finish loading. There will be an awards screen where it gives your character a trophy, this needs to load to completion in order to count as a character played. Therefore, do this in Short game or Long game, it will not work in fast fire. Once the awards screen it does the credits will roll and you can press B to go back to the main menu at this point.
Shy Starlet - 10 points
Finish a game with 2 unused Star points
1. Play a long game with 2 controllers
2. Take the 2nd controller (one not playing for the achievement)
3. Just keep answering questions with the second controller until you are leading the first controller by about 80,000 points.
4. When Round 1 ends, it should award the first controller two stars one for less than 40,000 pts in a round then one for most incorrect answers.
Then from here just finish the game without using the stars.
Cameo Appearance - 25 points
Answer one question correctly from every puzzle type
Pretty simple they want you to answer a question from every puzzle type they are:
Now Playing
Pictogram
Movie clip
Credit Roll
Quotables
Final Cut
HTML clipboard Who Am I?
Celebrity Ties
Anagram
Soundclip
Songs & Slogans
Strike a Match
Sequentials
Invisibles

Child's Play
HTML clipboard Pop Quiz
Hint Parade
Mise-en-Scene - 20 points
Correctly answer every Now Playing or Pictogram question in one Puzzle Block
Simply, You need to have a Flawless Round or either Now Playing or Pictogram without getting any questions wrong to unlock this.
Now Playing: You might remember this in previous Scene it? Games. However, it has slightly changed. You will be given a square which will eventually be a movie poster as it fills in you can guess at time, however, the longer you take the less points you will receive, but for this achievement take as long as you want because its more about getting it right. In this version of the game though they wont just ask you what the movie poster is, they will also ask you a question about the movie. There is usually 3 posters and 3 questions about them. Get all 6 right and you will get the achievement.
Pictogram: Pictograms have been in scene it games before and they haven't changed. Some will be very simple but some will be hard. You will see a collage of about 3 to 6 pictures and your job is to piece them together to find the secret word. For example, one puzzle in the game shows a picture of a gas pump and a picture of a light put them together and you get Gas + Light= Gas Light. Some might be more tricky though and have more pictures such as Thumbtack+Chess Pieces+Wood+Stock= Taking Wood Stock. Simply get all these right in one round and you will get the achievement, again score doesn't matter here accuracy does.
Reviewing the Dailies - 20 points
Correctly answer every Movie Clip question in one Puzzle Block
You will come across a bunch of these as you go along in this game. There will be an approximately 2 minute long clip from a movie with 3-5 questions after it. Refer to this guide made by Daz0128: http://tiny.cc/tYHmd
It is a note pad file and using the edit find feature you can find the movie while the clip is playing and be ready for the questions. Not every question is in there yet, but a good bit are. So therefore, if you see a clip from Must Love Dogs come up, Open up the notepad file while the clip is playing, find must love dogs, and matchup the questions on the screen to the answer in the notepad file. Again, not looking for score looking for accuracy. Get them all right and you will get the achievement.
Flash Forward - 20 points
Correctly answer every Credit Roll or Quotables question in one Puzzle Block
Credit Roll: I personally find this one of the harder puzzles to answer if your going for points, but for accuracy for this achievement it is not too bad. You will see just like at the end of any movie a roll of credits, however, they won't be in order of the most famous people first. In a real movie credits first you would see the most famous actor or actress and other relevant things first, however, in this mode it might really go out there and give you the costume designer or a key grip first. The way to get around this is to wait for something you know and usually the actor or actress comes last. At this point buzz in and answer it. You need to get all 5 questions right even if u get 100 pts for each it still counts.
Quotables: A little easier, but not much easier. In this mode a quote will be given to you from a movie. Sometimes you might need to answer who said it, sometimes it will be which movie, but most of the time for me it was to complete the quote. Therefore, the quote will read something like "Hasta la _____ baby" and you got to fill in the blank. Answer all 5 questions correctly and you will get the achievement.
Multiple Exposure - 20 points
Correctly answer every question in Final Cut
You will come across a bunch of these as you go along in this game. There will be an approximately 2 minute long clip from a movie with 3-5 questions after it. Refer to this guide made by Daz0128: http://tiny.cc/tYHmd
It is a note pad file and using the edit find feature you can find the movie while the clip is playing and be ready for the questions. Not every question is in there yet, but a good bit are. So therefore, if you see a clip from Must Love Dogs come up, Open up the notepad file while the clip is playing, find must love dogs, and matchup the questions on the screen to the answer in the notepad file. Again, not looking for score looking for accuracy. Get them all right and you will get the achievement.
This is similar to a movie clip, but is only available in the last round of a short or long game.
Method Acting - 20 points
Correctly answer every Who Am I or Celebrity Ties question in one Puzzle Block
Who Am I: This mode gives you 4-5 clues about usually an actor or actress but sometimes will stretch into a character or director as well. It will give clues such as I started in Gran Torino. I have won an Oscar, but none for acting. The answer here would be Clint Eastwood. Again, like most of the other achievements wait till you know the answer for sure this achievement is for accuracy not points so its more important to get the answer right with 100 pts and than answer it fast and get it wrong.
Celebrity Ties: This is a question that will tie two celebrities together. The second person in the question will always lead the next question.
Examples:
Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks starred in what 1998 comedy that involved the internet? A: You've Got Mail. The Follow-up would now use Tom Hanks.
Tom Hanks and Gary Sinise starred in what 1994 Best Picture? A: Forest Gump
The Follow-up would now use Gary Sinise and it would keep going
Just answer 5 of these right without getting any wrong and you will get the achievement. Again accuracy over speed.
Working Title - 20 points
Correctly answer every Anagram or Pictogram question in one Puzzle Block
Anagram: This is an actor, actress, director, movie title, etc that is scrambled in some way. They usually look like actual words instead of just some scrambled thing.
Example:
A Hype Entertained A: Hayden Panettiere
You will want to use this site for the answers:
http://anagram-solver.utsire.com/
Pictogram: Pictograms have been in scene it games before and they haven't changed. Some will be very simple but some will be hard. You will see a collage of about 3 to 6 pictures and your job is to piece them together to find the secret word. For example, one puzzle in the game shows a picture of a gas pump and a picture of a light put them together and you get Gas + Light= Gas Light. Some might be more tricky though and have more pictures such as Thumbtack+Chess Pieces+Wood+Stock= Taking Wood Stock. Simply get all these right in one round and you will get the achievement, again score doesn't matter here accuracy does.
Dialect Coach - 20 points
Correctly answer every Soundclip or Songs & Slogans question in one Puzzle Block
Soundclip: Make sure to have your speakers up for this one. You will get a clip from a movie which could be a song, a quote, or even a flashback. Usually, they will ask you what movie it is from, but on some occasions they might ask you the name of the actor or character that said. After you answer this question you will then have to answer a question about the sound it self. It might ask what actor played the part, it might as what the sequel to the movie is or it might ask what part of the movie it came from. There will be 3 sound clips and 3 follow-up questions for a total of 6 questions you need to get right for the achievement. Again, Accuracy over Speed.
Songs & Slogans: Just like the title says, it can be a question about a song from a movie or a slogan or tagline from a movie. Therefore, they might ask the song Bohemian Rhapsody was used in which of the following movies. Another thing they might ask is what movie used the tag line "If they each had half a brain, together they would still only have half a brain." The answers are Wayne's world and Dumb and Dumber. So make sure you watch out for tricks like Wayne's World 3(which doesn't exist) or Dumb and Dumber: When Harry Met Lloyd. Just get all 5 questions right and you will get the achievement.
Soft Focus - 20 points
Correctly answer every Strike a Match or Sequentials question in one Puzzle Block
Strike A Match: For this mode you will have to match either actress, actresses, movies, or even directors together. On one side you will have a list of movies, actors, directors, etc. On the other side you will have either the year the came from or titles of movies as well.
Example: Match the actor to the movie
Brad Pitt A. Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Jim Carrey B. The Mask
Robin Williams C. Mrs. Doubtfire
John Travolta D. The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3
In this situation the answer would be ABCD however they are all not usually that simple. One nice thing about this mode is you can get it wrong multiple times but as long as it is correct before the timer expires it counts a correct answer. Get them all right and you will get this achievement.
Sequentials: This is similar to strike a match, but you have to put the years of the movies. So it will give u a list of movies with years and you need to put them in chronological order. It has the same leeway as the strike a match as long as the answer is correct by the timer the timer expires it counts as correct.
Example:
Legends of the Fall A. 2000
Million Dollar Baby B. 1995
Gladiator C. 2004
The Dark Knight D. 2008
In this example it will be BCAD. Legends of the fall was 1995, Million Dollar Baby 2004, Gladiator 2000, and The Dark Knight 2008.
Finding the Macguffin - 20 points
Correctly answer every Invisibles or Props question in one Puzzle Block
Invisibles: This is similar to previous scene it games, but it is slightly different. In previous scene it games you had to identify either what was missing from a scene or the head of an actor or actress would be removed and you had to guess which person it was. This is still the same here, however, there will be a follow up question as well.
Props: For this one you simply will get a picture of something. It could be a hat, a street, a building, etc. Your job will be to say what movie it comes from. You might also get a follow-up question about the movie or the prop it self. Again accuracy over score.
Viewfinder Master - 20 points
Correctly answer every Distorted Reality or Visual Puzzler question in one Puzzle Block
Distorted Reality: For this one you will have to decipher a puzzle that is given to you. The image will be distorted and as the time expires will get clearer. Usually you will have to answer what actor or actress is in the picture. This might seem hard, however, remember accuracy over score. You can score 1 point on the question and it is still correct. Therefore just make sure that you get the picture as clear as possible for you to come up with the right answer.
Visual Puzzler: This is another visual question. For this one you will see 4 images and can answer at anytime. Each of the images will usually relate to a movie title, but on rare occasions could be an actor or actress.
Example: Dog Truck, Hot Pepper Jar, Briefcase, Aspen, Colorado Town Sign. A: Dumb and Dumber
Again Accuracy over score, wait till the 4th picture if you need to.
Drawing Up Storyboards - 20 points
Correctly answer every Sketches, Pixel Flix or Child's Play question in one Puzzle Block
Sketches: For this one a picture will be draw and you can answer at anytime. The game will repeat this category a lot so you probably will know most of these by then, but until you do let the game draw out the picture and figure out what exactly it is. Could be a movie, actor, or actress. Again accuracy over score.
Pixel Flix: This is a picture and a video combined into one. It will be something that looks like an old retro video game. For example, you might see a video game looking car driving into space with an old guy and young kid flying into the sky. This of course would be Back To The Future. Again accuracy over score.
Child's Play: Similar to sketches, but this one will be drawn more kid like and be in color. Again, this game will repeat this category a lot so you should get used to them, however, wait till the picture is almost completed if you need to, because you need to be able to get all of them correct.
You can also look at the answer guide by Daz for sketches, but you can't pause the game so you have to be fast.
Sketches Answers
Sneak Preview - 20 points
Answer 30 questions with the maximum amount of points
Turbo Controller: To do this method you will need a Madcatz Street Fighter IV Turbo Controller. Simply, start up a game of fast fire by your self and set the turbo to A. Tape down the a button and the game will go itself answering A for every question. It will ignore the buzzer questions, but you can just leave it there and don't have to do anything. It will automatically start another match and everything by having a turboed. This will guarantee your answer will receive maximum points (if A is correct) and in turn it will build up for the Sneak Preview Achievement, which requires you to get maximum points on 30 correct answers.
Regular Controller: You will have to know the question pretty well. The second you see the answer buzz in immediately and as long as you score the maximum amount of points which is 10,000 in some puzzles, but it varies then it will count towards this. This might sound hard but as questions repeat you should be able to answer most immediately.
Party On! - 20 points
Play Party Play through 50 questions
You can get this at the same time as life of the party. Make sure you select "Party Play" and not "Classic Mode". Simply answer 50 questions and you will get it. Make sure you do it with 4 controllers so you can get the Life of the party achievement at the same time.
Life of the Party - 20 points
Score the most points in 5 consecutive Puzzle Blocks in a Party Play game with 4 players
This is very simple just pick up the controller assigned to the profile getting the achievement and only answer questions with that profile, for the other profiles just make them sit there and score 0 points. Make sure you select "Party Play" and not "Classic Mode". DO NOT QUIT out after getting this achievement, because the achievement Party on! can also be obtained here by just playing through 50 questions.
Quiz Quartet - 10 points
Play a 4-Player game
Just plug in 4 controllers or buzzers and start the game with 4 people. This can be stacked with any of the game playing achievements such as short game, long game, etc. You cannot use fast fire for this.
Bonus Bandit - 10 points
Activate and win the Star System twice in one game
This is actual VERY easy
1. Play a long game with 2 controllers
2. Take the 2nd controller (one not playing for the achievement)
3. Just keep answering questions with the second controller you should be at least 80k up on your first controller.
4. It should award you two stars one for less than 40,000 pts in a rd then one for most incorrect answers.
5. The meter for player 1 will now be huge since they have 0 pts and it will be easy to stop on it.
6. Repeat for round 2.
Heroic Score - 30 points
Score more than 150,000 points in a Short Play Game with 2 or more players
You will need at least a second controller here. Make sure you are doing a Short Play, 2 Controllers and simply take the same tactics you did for getting the 200,000 point achievement. You should get that one and this one at the same time if you haven't got the 200,000 point achievement yet.
No Margin for Error - 30 points
Win a Short Play Game by less than 1000 points
Might sound tricky but it is not. Just simply answer the first question while scoring about 800 points then make neither controller 1 or controller 2 answer anymore questions the rest of the game. You will win 800 to 0 and get the achievement.
Legendary Score - 30 points
Score more than 300,000 points in a Long Play Game with 2 or more players
This one could be a little tricky. You want to use the same tactics as getting the 200,000 in the short play, however, a lot less room for error. This one took me about 6 tries, but I finally got it with 313,000. Star Multipliers are big, Answering a lot of questions correct are big, and not taking a lot of time to answer the questions are big as well. You want as many max point questions as possible. Also, make sure 2 people are playing and not just yourself.
Skin of Your Teeth - 30 points
Win a Long Play Game by less than 1000 points
Might sound tricky but it is not. Just simply answer the first question while scoring about 800 points then make neither controller 1 or controller 2 answer anymore questions the rest of the game. You will win 800 to 0 and get the achievement.
Spotless Performance - 50 points
Answer all questions correctly in a Long Play Game
This is probably the hardest achievement in the game. You will have to get about 75 questions correct without missing one. You would think this would be easy because you can buzz in with another controller and see the answer, however, it is programmed to where if anyone gets the question wrong it screws you out of the achievement. I do not have this one yet, but when I do have it I will try to come up with a good strategy.
Hot and Cold - 20 points
Answer one Puzzle block all correct and another one all incorrect in the same Short Play Game
Use any of my tactics for the answer all of this type right to obtain the first part of the achievement. In the second part make sure you answer all the questions incorrect. The best opportunity for this is to do it on the last puzzle in round 3 followed by the final cut. Get all the questions correct in the last puzzle in round 3, then load up the Daz Movie Clip Answer Guide and while the clip is playing locate the answers. Get them all wrong and the achievement will pop.
False Start - 10 points
Score less than 50,000 points in a Fast-Fire Game
Start up a fast fire game(1 player only). Answer 1 question correctly then let the time run out. You will get the achievement doing it this way since your score will be no where close to 50,000.
Blazing Pace - 10 points
Score more than 250,000 points in a Fast-Fire Game
See Faster than Light
Faster Than Light - 20 points
Score more than 500,000 points in a Fast-Fire Game
Another very hard achievement. In this mode you have a 5 minute timer to get as many questions correct as possible, however, if you get a question in correct between 10-30 seconds is deducted off your time. So the first thing you want to do is make sure you don't get more than 1-2 questions incorrect at most or you will never get this achievement. Also, don't take too long to answer, because the timer is running and it will waste your time. This might take a lot of tries and a lot of luck, but you will need a near flawless performance to achieve this.
Come from Behind - 20 points
Place 4th place at the end of a round in a Long Play Game, then win the game
4 Controllers is a must. Simply just make sure you are in last place at the end of Round 1 in a long play game, then just sit the other controllers down and answer with your main controller to the end of the game. You should get this very easily.
Film Vault Tour - 20 points
Answer 100 Visual Puzzler, Distorted Reality, Props, or Invisibles Questions correctly
For these three achievements it is 1 type 100 question. You cannot answer 10 Visual Puzzler+ 50 Distorted Reality+ 20 Props+ 20 Invisible and get it. It has to be 100 of any of the 4 not a combined amount.
Distorted Reality: For this one you will have to decipher a puzzle that is given to you. The image will be distorted and as the time expires will get clearer. Usually you will have to answer what actor or actress is in the picture. This might seem hard, however, remember accuracy over score. You can score 1 point on the question and it is still correct. Therefore just make sure that you get the picture as clear as possible for you to come up with the right answer.
Visual Puzzler: This is another visual question. For this one you will see 4 images and can answer at anytime. Each of the images will usually relate to a movie title, but on rare occasions could be an actor or actress.
Invisibles: This is similar to previous scene it games, but it is slightly different. In previous scene it games you had to identify either what was missing from a scene or the head of an actor or actress would be removed and you had to guess which person it was. This is still the same here, however, there will be a follow up question as well.
Props: For this one you simply will get a picture of something. It could be a hat, a street, a building, etc. Your job will be to say what movie it comes from. You might also get a follow-up question about the movie or the prop it self.
Art House Tour - 20 points
Answer 100 Sketches, Child's Play, Pixel Flix, or Now Playing Questions correctly
Sketches: For this one a picture will be draw and you can answer at anytime. The game will repeat this category a lot so you probably will know most of these by then, but until you do let the game draw out the picture and figure out what exactly it is. Could be a movie, actor, or actress.
Pixel Flix: This is a picture and a video combined into one. It will be something that looks like an old retro video game. For example, you might see a video game looking car driving into space with an old guy and young kid flying into the sky. This of course would be Back To The Future.
Child's Play: Similar to sketches, but this one will be drawn more kid like and be in color. Again, this game will repeat this category a lot so you should get used to them, however, wait till the picture is almost completed if you need to, because you need to be able to get all of them correct.
Now Playing: You might remember this in previous Scene it? Games. However, it has slightly changed. You will be given a square which will eventually be a movie poster as it fills in you can guess at time, however, the longer you take the less points you will receive, but for this achievement take as long as you want because its more about getting it right. In this version of the game though they wont just ask you what the movie poster is, they will also ask you a question about the movie. There is usually 3 posters and 3 questions about them.
Game Show Tour - 20 points
Answer 100 Sequentials, Strike a Match, Anagrams, or Pictograms Questions correctly
Strike A Match: For this mode you will have to match either actress, actresses, movies, or even directors together. On one side you will have a list of movies, actors, directors, etc. On the other side you will have either the year the came from or titles of movies as well.
Example: Match the actor to the movie
Brad Pitt A. Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Jim Carrey B. The Mask
Robin Williams C. Mrs. Doubtfire
John Travolta D. The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3
In this situation the answer would be ABCD however they are all not usually that simple. One nice thing about this mode is you can get it wrong multiple times but as long as it is correct before the timer expires it counts a correct answer. Get them all right and you will get this achievement.
Sequentials: This is similar to strike a match, but you have to put the years of the movies. So it will give u a list of movies with years and you need to put them in chronological order. It has the same leeway as the strike a match as long as the answer is correct by the timer the timer expires it counts as correct.
Example:
Legends of the Fall A.2000
Million Dollar Baby B. 1995
Gladiator C. 2004
The Dark Knight D. 2008
In this example it will be BCAD. Legends of the fall was 1995, Million Dollar Baby 2004, Gladiator 2000, and The Dark Knight 2008.
Anagram: This is an actor, actress, director, movie title, etc that is scrambled in some way. They usually look like actual words instead of just some scrambled thing.
Example:
A Hype Entertained A: Hayden Panettiere
You will want to use this site for the answers:

Pictogram: Pictograms have been in scene it games before and they haven't changed. Some will be very simple but some will be hard. You will see a collage of about 3 to 6 pictures and your job is to piece them together to find the secret word. For example, one puzzle in the game shows a picture of a gas pump and a picture of a light put them together and you get Gas + Light= Gas Light. Some might be more tricky though and have more pictures such as Thumbtack+Chess Pieces+Wood+Stock= Taking Wood Stock
Slippery Slope - 10 points
Lose the lead 5 times in a single game
You have to watch this very closely. 4 controllers is a must. First simply answer 1 question right but make sure you get a low amount of points. Then have another controller answer the next question right but make sure it gets a decent amount but not more than you. Repeat this process till you lose it 5 times.
Example:
Player 1 Answers a question right for 100 pts
Player 2 Answers a question right for 250 pts--1 lead lost
Player 1 Answers a question right for 250 points total score 350
Player 2 Answers a question right for 250 points total score 500--2 leads lost
Repeat.
Upper Echelon - 30 points

Simple really. Just plug in 4 controllers and start a short or long game. Answer as many questions as you can while the other controllers just sit there. You will get it by the end of the game.

Successfully answer 40 questions about Oscar winning movies
This just came to me naturally while answering questions so I do not think it has to be done in one sitting or just a specific mode. As long as the question is about an Oscar Winning Movie then it will count towards this achievement. Therefore about roughly 15 movie clips about an Oscar Winning Movie of 3 correct answers each will work here.

Successfully answer 35 questions in Pop Quiz about Oscar winning actors and actresses
*****MUST BE IN A POP QUIZ PUZZLE BLOCK*****
This only counts if the question is in a Pop Quiz puzzle block.
Pop Quiz: In this mode you will be given an Actor, Actress or Director. The game will ask you about 10 movies they either starred in, directed or were involved in some way. The easiest way to get 10 here is to open up imdb.com and have the find option in Firefox or internet explorer enabled. From there, once the name comes up type it in real fast and you should be able to find the movies the actor, actress, or director was in. If its not on their resume than they were not in it. The questions will be phrased as: Tom Hanks Starred in Cast Away? A. True B. False.
HOWEVER, for this one it only counts if it is an Oscar WINNING ACTOR OR ACTRESS not directors, producers, etc.
The following actors/actresses I KNOW for a fact have won an Oscar and are in this game:
Anthony Hopkins
Dustin Hoffman
Sidney Poitier
Julie Andrews
Kate Winseltt
The following Actors/Actress are in this game but HAVE NOT won one:
Michael Cera
John Cusack
Amy Adams
Clint Eastwood (does have Oscars but not acting so doesn't count)
Mel Brooks (Oscars but not acting again doesn't count)
Evan Rachel Wood
Hugh Jackman
From my experience this has to be done in one sitting.
