One of These Things is Not Like the Other...

It's been a slow news week, and Cinematical found just the thing to help pass the time. The industry is all abuzz with Oscar talk after the nominations were announced a little while back. With the Oscars just over two weeks away, nominated pictures that were in limited release are maaking their way to wide releases. But what if you don't have the time to become familiar with the nominees by catching all these flicks?

Here we have a very simple YouTube based game similar to the childhood Sesame Street segments asking us to figure out which thing doesn't belong? The video will tell you an Academy Award nominee, and then show you a set of two pictures. The left picture is the original still, and the right picture has something changed within. The modified picture is divided into nine segments allowing you to click where you think the change is, and progressing you through the game via YouTube. It's a clever little game and it's easy at first (as you can see below), but then becomes a mind numbingly tedious process of noticing every minute detail of the still. There are thirty levels. We've embedded the first below. Good night, and good luck.
