Awesome puzzle. I love this movie. So fun! Good job. :D

me too, he has such a cute personality
nice puzzle :)

Thanks!

My sons loved this movie- good job! But I must ask, what is the connection with the title? Thanks.

I'm wondering what the connection to the title is, too. Because he looks like a cute robot, but I absolutely loathe MSG. It gives me killer migraines, and manufacturers hide it in *everything* these days - soups, salad dressings, meat snacks, peanut snacks, chips, etc... They also call it by tricky names like "hydrolyzed soy protein" and "autolyzed yeast extract". Good, challenging puzzle, though! Maybe he uses those treads to run over my brain... ;-)

meg..I didn't know that (maybe that's why I have such killer headaches all the time)

as far as the title..I believe it is in the script

In the movie, Johnny 5 is reading the ingredients on a can of soup (I believe) one of which, as expected, is the title of this puzzle. I figured only die hard Short Circuit fans would make the connection. The reason it is funny is because of his voice and the way he reads it out loud in the movie.

YAY..I got it right :)

I remember the line. Very funny. :D

The name reminded me of an Animaniacs song. I have a sing-along VHS.

I loved the animaniacs. :D

Cute. I don't remember the movie, although I must've seen it when I was very young.

Thanks! It was fun.

That may have been the hardest puzzle (of 800+ so far) that I've solved. Still had to guess a little at the end (on the left-middle), though maybe I missed something. Tough!!

I intended it to be tough. Thanks for that comment.

So you are also Monkeyboy?

Yes, didn't you know that?

no. Should I have? I guess you followed the monkey theme...

Many people on here know that. I assumed you did, as well. Sorry.

READ TOPIC #112 IN GENERAL FORUM

this could be in WC#1

if you don't understand go check Adam's #21 comment

I was thinking the same thing Sylvain. This puzzle should have been entered in your new contest!

Adam, I've heard of the movie but *wince* I've never seen it. I had to call in reinforcement (youngest son) to judge the quality of the subject.
"That's REALLY good actually" got you an excellent quality marking!
Thanks for the puzzle.

Thank you!

I already did mine a few weeks ago too. The "Knife Man" one. Though, that wasn't my best puzzle.

Try another one, then. The more the merrier!

NO TIME!!! Must... write... syllabus... Must... start... reading...

Someone tell me to log off RIGHT NOW!

Stay on here!
Do more puzzles!
Create new puzzle for the weekly challenge!
Delay reading for 1 more day!

Did that help??? LOL
Sorry if it didn't.

I can wait to see the first entry in the weekly puzzle

hope it will be soon

PS: Adam have you read about Jan's idea off having a page with link just for the challenge I thing that great ( that is if someone finnally enter it...)

Yes, I read that. It might not matter if we don't get people to enter. Oh well. Maybe we will get 2 or 3 entries.

This could be the WC # 10 entry .... or not ? (JK)

LOL

funny. :)

This was so hard! I thought I was completely stuck, but I kept plugging away and looking for new ways to use edge logic and finally got it without guessing. I really don't know what the point is of a puzzle that requires guessing, so I'm glad that I didn't have to for this one. I remember loving the movie when I was young, and this really looks like him. Great job!

Awesome!

thanks

I had to restart this one five times before I finally finished it. Very nice, though! I didn't get the title clue - I kept thinking that this would be Wall-E.

Thank you all.

Extremely difficult. But I finally made it. I don't think I guessed any. It's a wierd looking little guy. Not familiar with the movie.

The top of the puzzle reminded me of John Cusack in "Say Anything" http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx0631Oese1qgwfin.jpg

Ok.

I love the image but don't understand the title.

solved again. no guessing needed. relatively easy.

Loved the image and the source. Very tough puzzle. Wound up guessing a lot because I was getting tired of it.

Used logic only, no guessing required.

I'll count this as one of my favourites. Figured out the subject early on, but still a lot of work to complete it
