Fun! Had to Google to confirm the O, I didn't know that!
Same here -- just went with what worked. After falling victim to the first important acrosses and stopping at that -- Should have known there'd be more! Fun synopses and puzzle, Ben!
You get nagging things all over. And then it clicks.
It was easier to see some trios than others. Got the middle two right away but took awhile to see the first. And even then there was the "huh, that's multiple movies" moment. In the beginning I thought 7D was pertinant. Reading clockwise: "The man and ark now.... udo??????"
Once I recognized they were trios, in a line, yes. I spent a little time trying to find the "uniter" (7D?) and the three things they you united rather than trios for a second or two. Once I realized The Odyssey Now and Man pursues ark were two different trios I found the other two right away.

I struggled with the O also, but when I found "O Brother, Where Art Thou", I figured it must be Tron. I also needed Google for Napolean Dynamite, but Titanic and Raiders were easy.

I like the metanism and got the genral idea right off the bat, But I needed Google/Wikipedia for the specfics -- all of them, even the one I've seen, including the answer..
Started to re-fill the .puz after solving the grid here and BERGSINKSBOAT jumped out. Got Raiders and Napoleon Dynamite instantly (despite not having seen the latter), but did need to google the Odyssey one (though once O Brother Where Art Thou popped up I figured that was it, even though the click was a little softer since the rest involve the actual plots). Very clever and fun, thanks. :)
Well I struggled for quite some time figuring that AND (word that comes between partners) "united" three things A AND B, so I had AJAXAND ACHILLES, HALLAND OATES, RUTHAND NAOMI, PEDRO and NAPOLEON to get AONN (funnily enough I thought, dang that sounds almost like TRON). THen, after reading some comments I did literally step back and saw BERGSINKSBOAT and of course jumped for TITANIC which naturally was wrong.
"Don't be so trigger happy Tom, look at the others", and when I saw VOTEPEDRO PRES I knew what I had to do. The man pursues ark was a tough choice because EVAN ALMIGHTY is also about a man pursuing the building of an ARK, but I went with RAIDERS because it was certainly a bigger movie. The THEODYSSEYNOW was a puzzle because there are LOTS of Odyssey movies, but with a TR_N (what a coincidence) I knew it had to be an O, and there was a movie called The ODYSSEY and 52A told us we could ignore THE, so that was my TRON. I had no idea "O Brother Where Art Thou" (even though I have seen it) was loosely based on Homer's work.
Argh. Flailed around for a while because I was putting Indiana Jones in the title, I didn't realize it was strictly titled Raiders of the Lost Ark, and I had figured that The Odyssey Now was actually 2001: A Space Odyssey. Especially with "Now" being clued as "These days (more or less)" - I figured that meant I had some leeway on 2001 being considered "now."
The "more of less" in the clue for NOW was because "O, Brother Where Art Thou" is set in the 1930s. ;-)

First thought there would be more crossovers like MISHMASH and FARR, then thought it was a collection of famous lines (Dr Livingstone i presume?)… then VOTEPEDRO jumped right out at me.. still thinking quotes I found berg sinks boat and the other two soon followed. No google needed for any… O Brother is a family fave that we are quoting all the time! Sooo many memorable lines also , watch this yall: https://youtu.be/g0wO783AqMw?si=Ae6gtx8xkHnOELIU

Fun! Thanks, Ben.

I had TR_N and punted. I'm old enough to have seen the original on the big screen.
Fantastic concept and movie synopses! As it happens I saw all 4 themers plus the answer, so easy peasy for me. Thanks Ben!
Berto 1s · 11 mesi fa
Was convinced it was going to begin with T and end in ND, with maybe ROTLA in the middle, but TROTLA—ND wasn’t feeling warm n fuzzy. Glad I simplified my thinking!
Qmark 3s · 11 mesi fa
Loved it, thanks Ben! (luckily I knew that the Coens' "O Brother..." was based on the Odyssey) :)
I think that crept in because I also made the puzzle a pangram, just for the challenge of it! ;-)
Sharkicicles 2s · 11 mesi fa
Nudge needed but no google required. This was definitely one of those “whoa…” ones once I saw it. Thanks!
Ergcat 15:39 · 11 mesi fa
Good one! I was overthinking as usual and needed the nudges! Thanks, Ben!
Carolyn 3s · 11 mesi fa
Having never heard of one of the movies (or the answer movie) made it more difficult. Came back after two wrong answers and there it was. Duh! I guess I need to get out more! However, I did love O Brother...
