I am pretty good at math, so I did it in my head, then on paper, and
finally on a calculator just to confirm.

Each time I got the same answer, and sure enough it IS my very
favorite Show EVER!

DO NOT cheat and scroll down to the movies. Do YOUR math, THEN
compare the results to the list of movies at the bottom You will be
AMAZED at how scary true and accurate this test is

1. Pick a number from 1-9.

2. Multiply that number by 3.

3. Add 3.

4. Multiply by 3 again.

5. Your total will be a two digit number. Add the first and second
digits together to find your favorite show (of all time) in the list
of 17 movies below:

Movie List:

1. Gone With the Wind
2. E.T.
3. Blazing Saddles
4. Star Wars
5. Forrest Gump
6. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
7. Jaws
8. Grease
9. The Obama Farewell Speech of 2013
10. Casablanca
11. Jurassic Park
12. Shrek
13. Pirates of the Caribbean
14. Titanic
15. Raiders of the Lost Ark
16. Home Alone
17. Mrs. Doubtfire

Now, isn't that something?

There has to have been a true numb nut who made up that list of favorite movies, seems like it was made by a 14 year old, who has never been out of town.

I am just curious as to what number you came up with? Did it really not tell you your favorite movie out of that list?

Haha, I got the joke, I have seen that math thing before, the mathematics are extremely rudimentary, it is funny when people seriously try it with different numbers and are amazed that they dont get different answers. I think the joke would have been much better if the list of films was not as rudimentary as the math. Should have put up seriously good and classic movies, that makes the joke so much better.

Good point. That's almost as stupid as trying this 'test' with a different first number and expecting a different outcome!

Inbreeding has that effect. The four thumbs should have balanced it out tho.

Without even having to think, one quickly realizes that all the movies on that list are extremely fictional, they are about everything from space aliens, animated 3D giants to other extremely unlikely things.

I didn't even do the math and I already knew the answer.

It doesn't work. My favorite movie on that list is Blazing Saddles. It keeps telling me it's #9, I don't think I'd go see #9.

Number 9 is about an alien that pretends to be an American while being an empty suit.

I am crossing my fingers and hoping it becomes the only non-fiction entry on the list.
