Tricks and Treats from Molly Movie Night MODs

(October 28) Kestra provided the tricky artfully altered screen shot, and Molly Movie Night MODs provided a jack-o’-lantern full of treats! Congratulations to five-time caption contest winner Carl Partridge and this week’s other finalists:


How in the world can I get my trick or treat basket out from under this REDICULOUS CAPE! Ashley, you are not LISTENING! (hrbrenizer)


Carrie: SuperOwl will protect you, Ashley !!!!

Ashley: Seriously fowlks, I do not know this person..... (PhilJustPhil)


Ash, what you need is Coffee, Coffee, Coffee!

Movie Night MODs Rise to New Challenge

(October 21) Just as the Movie Night MODs were getting into a comfortable caption contest groove, contest mistress Kestra decided to throw them for another loop. Instead of asking the MODs to come up with a caption for the lump o’ owlets picture, she challenged them to explain what the owlets were doing. MODs rose to the challenge quite handily – the judges did not. It took a total of four judges to come up with a solid panel of finalists from among the fourteen entries!


Congratulations to first-time winner Kateywise and this week’s other finalists!


These owlets are: Practicing their Sumowl wrestling moves. (Dale Ann Harsh)

These two are: Pretending to be Salt & Pepper Shakers (the ones with the Magnets in their Noses)! (Yeahhoorose)


These owlets are: Stereo Owls!!! Playing my Favorite Tune! (gmarch53)

The Ears Have It on Molly Movie Night

(October 14) Molly’s eyes may have launched a hundred thousand or so web searches, but this week it was her ears that inspired a thousand – OK, a dozen or so – creative Molly Movie Night Caption Contest entries. As Kestra would be quick to point out, those weren’t really Molly’s ears – it was just the appearance of ears that inspired MODs to wax auretical! Congratulations to this week’s Caption Contest winner, Marilyn173.


This week’s other finalists and their captions are:


Lashes: McGee, come quick! I'm turning into Tauntz!


memedee: I'm channeling the Easter Bunny we ate during C1


Kristin Olson: Wait, I'm a barn owl!. I'm not supposed to have ears!

Caption Contest Booby Prize Slot Vacated

(October 7) Yahoo/Yeahhoorose reluctantly let go of her claim to the perennial Molly Movie Night Booby Prize last night when her entry won the weekly caption contest by a mudslide! The owner of multiple screen names can now lay claim to one more title – Caption Contest Winner!


Welcome to the winner’s circle, Rose!


Congratulations also go out to this week’s other finalists:


Wow, Ashley! You were right! This is REAL grass, not AstroTurf!

(Nashville Ann)


Wow Ashley, Wesley was right, you gotta flap your wings or you will hit the ground if you're gonna fly.

(KJBergy)


Wow Ashley, Are you sure walking is faster than flying?

(JaniePie)

Caption Contest Newbies Put on a Good Show

(September 30) Last week’s Molly Movie Night Caption Contest was limited to newbies – or, as the ever politically correct Kestra refers to them – pre-winner. The newbies didn’t disappoint, and reminded prior winners that they’d have to stay sharp if they wanted to be featured in future MOD blog announcements! Congratulations to winner hummerzz and all of the finalists!


The other captions that made it to last week’s poll were:


Molly’s To Do List

Food in the Pantry, done

Kids fed, done

Force field in place, done

Ahhhhh, Time for a nap!

(Karole)


Me thinks we're being spied on!

(Barretgal)


Max! Come Back Here! Dudley and I will Hold it Down for you!!!

Molly Movie Night Caption Contest Hosts a Wedding!


OK, guys, Here's what we are going to do. When Ma
goes to sleep, follow me out of the box, down
the ladder, and over to that big white house.
I think that's where they hide the meece!!
(Marilyn173)

Molly Movie Nigh participants celebrated with Marilyn173 as her caption was chosen the winner of last week’s caption contest poll. Marilyn’s captions, which tend to use the “storytelling” format, have made it into the finals four times since July and often came “this close…” in the polls. If you’d like to see more of Marilyn’s caption contest musings, check out the finalists for the September 9, August 19, August 12, and July 5 shows -- right here on the MODs blog!

As for the wedding reference… well, Marilyn’s frequent forays to the finals did inspire a few “always a bridesmaid” comments....

This week’s other finalists were:

(hrbrenizer) How cute am I? I am so cute you ARE ALL LOOKING AT ME RIGHT NOW.

(redheadedwolf2) I promise I won't tell the others what you said. You can trust me. ;-)

(Birdlover4ever) Am I not the cutest owlet evah?
