It's taken around 21 years of using the internet for me to realise a sad truth - that internet-users become more annoying than their public selves at the slightest 'provocation'. They (I should say "we", probably) also become more predictable. University Challenge comments always feature: 1. Misogyny. If a woman gets a question wrong, there will be a psychotic reaction. The inverted form exists too; 2. Racism. One genius on here is proud to be unwilling to comprehend that we're all allowed to identify as being from more than one place; 3. Badly-written posts along the lines of "there stupid I knew all the ansers and i didnt go to univercity!!!!! (sic)"; 4. "I can't BELIEVE they didn't recognise that tune from my favourite movie! They are beyond help!"

Ha ha, Hitchcock's 'Rear Window' suggested for Ennio Morricone's haunting theme for 'Once Upon a Time in the West' (16:32). Sometimes the guesses are pretty wild.

@@castelodeossos3947 I’ll take your word for it. It’s just that here in the US, at least, almost no one knows the theme from that film. Compared to those from Casablanca or The Godfather or Star Wars or Raiders of the Lost Ark or even the shark motif from Jaws, it’s not even worth mentioning.

@@CasperLCat Agree that it was pretty odd to suggest 'The Godfather', which is, of course, far more famous than 'The Third Man'. Cannot myself recognise the theme music from 'Casablanca' (even though I've seen it 3 times). 'Star Wars' and 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' were, however, so forgettable that I also forgot the theme music, whereas 'Jaws' was not.
