    Yippee!



    Hint. The word 'boomerang' isn't in the solution.

    With great pleasure! Good to see you back Flinn after a short and well-earned time off the forum. Thank you Muizer and others who got me up to speed with this image sharing thing.

    Hint time! This is a well-known quote out of an action movie.

    How are we supposed to read the images? Is it left to right and top to bottom, or clockwise, or counterclockwise? Also, just as a general request, would you be okay putting your images into a linear string in the future For me at least, wondering about the order makes this almost impossible for me to come up with any ideas.

    It's clockwise starting from the upper left-hand corner. I appreciate you asking; I now feel kind of stupid as I realize that it is not a commonly shared intuition. My intention was not to make the challenge any harder by unusual placement of pictures/clues.

    No worries. And it is an easy oversight. I mean, no part of me actually thought it would be counterclockwise, or start anywhere than top left, but reading it left-to-right top-to-bottom seemed equally sensible as clockwise. Thanks for the hint! Now if I can just figure out the actual answer...

    I guess it is time for another hint. This catchphrase game is interesting in the sense that it seems like adequately hard ones are really hard to come by. Either it is way too easy or way too hard, and it is difficult to estimate for the one posting the riddle.

    I intended the first picture in the clockwise progression to be this, but I thought that it would be too easy. So let's see if this one helps. Replace the pointing finger with this one:

    Septentrionalis, is the above right? I just want to make sure the game keeps moving, but that's hard when there is an open guess on the field.

    Oh, sorry for the oversight. No it is not correct.

    I'll give you the next hint. There is no bed involved in the answer. Concentrate on the action in the picture and try to fish a verb out of it.

    Well you wanted guess. I'll post what I'm thinking for each pic, so you can see where you've lead people

    1) point, that, there
    2) cover
    3) frown, angry, malicious (I don't know the cartoon character)
    4) sky

    Anyway I don't know hardly any movie quotes so I won't be guessing this one.

    I really thought that this would be too easy without a few curve balls.

    I will help you further. The cartoon character's name is pivotal, and she has to do with the Moomin stories, the familiriarity of which I also may have overestimated. And remember the traffic sign hint and that this is an action movie quote. Thank you for trying even though it is harder than intended.
