If you're hitting the theaters this weekend, you'll have a choice between some pretty varied movie themes. You could see Denzel try to stop a 200 ton behemoth from killing a bunch of children, watch some aliens use their vacuum cleaners to make a human lunch, or watch Rachel McAdams as she tries to find love while keeping Indiana Jones in check and live on television. SO MANY CHOICES! You're also free to sidestep the theaters altogether this week and just focus on this Quest we put together. Romantic comedy? Or an awesome Quest. Make the right choice.  
New to Quests? Feel free to comment below for hints, or just to see how the heck these things work.

A mistake on the 'They're heee-rrrreee' quest - the description asks for ten films, but the step counter only needs four. Also, why isn't Cloverfield one of them?

Anchorman, Almost Famous, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas aren't coming up under journalism.  This quest is dead to me.

I was also a little bummed when Transsiberian didn't work for a "train movie".

@listerfeend: Nice! 
 
This doesn't feel too bad either...

I think it's asking for movies from the last 10 years. Also Cloverfield isn't one because it's a creature that comes from the bottom of the ocean.

Need one more on the journalism quest. Generally, some of the films I'd expect to work aren't.
 
EDIT: All done at number 18!

The description says it is asking for films from the last 20 years, though.

@Joe:  Oh..then it must just have been a typo.

A few clues for They're heee-rrrreee. (Hopefully not too obvious.)
 
1. These invaders might be in for a fight. 
2. No one would have believed... 
3. Might need vindicating.

#19 to finish. Got interrupted twice by some stupid sales calls! Haha

I didn't notice it right away as I was busy writing so I only got #15 but it was fun tracking down the films. The only issue I have is so many big obvious classics seem to be excluded that it would have been nicer if they put more films to track down in each category.

Runaway Train isn't a train movie apparently, and it was my first choice!

Aw, I really wanted Nothing But the Truth to be one of the journalist answers...
#32, some of those ones were a little tricky - nice challenging set!

Money Train is not part of this quest. For shame.
 
Even though it's not relevant, I was kinda hoping for Trainspotting, as well.

My thoughts exactly! I was immediately b-line towards Money Train page and the question icon did show up I was like "BS!" then I tried Trainspotting just for fun.

I went to all of those too.
