10. STOCKHOLMSVY (10. STOCKHOLM VIEW)
Filmen Hancock om den alkoholiserade superhjälten med samma namn marknadsfördes med hjälp av olika filmaffischer där speglingen i huvudpersonens solglasögon varierade mellan olika länder. Här nedan ses versionerna som användes i USA (Los Angeles), Australien (Sydney), Tyskland (Berlin) och Sverige (Stockholm). Titeln STOCKHOLMSVY anspelar även på en av filmens manusförfattare Vy Vincent Ngo och det efterfrågade "affischnamnet" är naturligtvis Hancocks eget som kompletteras med förnamnet John, precis som den första undertecknaren av amerikanska självständighetsförklaringen. Rätt svar: John (22 poäng)

Have specs Will travel.
The movie Hancock, starring the eponymous alcoholic superhero, was marketed with the help of different movie posters where the reflection in the main character's sunglasses varied between countries. Shown above are some of the locations used in the US (Los Angeles), Australia (Sydney), Germany (Berlin), and Sweden (Stockholm). The Swedish title STOCKHOLMSVY also hints to one of the script writers, Vy Vincent Ngo, and Hancock's last name is supplemented, just like the top signature of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, by the first name John. Correct answer: John (22 points)

22. PATRIARK (22. PATRIARCH)
Ingen kan väl ha undgått den senaste ABBA-vågen som dragit världen över i samband med filmen Mamma Mia! som bygger på musikalen med samma namn. Säga vad man vill om såväl ABBAs musik som Pierce Brosnans sångkunskaper, men det är lätt att ryckas med i tonerna från förr. I filmen postar huvudpersonen Sophie tre brev, varav ett har det frimärke som visades i frågans bild. Senare träffar Sophie sina möjliga fäder, tre till antalet, på den svenskflaggade segelbåten Fernando. Båtens namn i filmen knyts till ABBA genom den sång som gruppen framförde på engelska och som dessförinnan sjungits in av Frida på svenska. Historien om själva båten, som egentligen heter Tai-Mo-Shan, skulle kunna ligga till grund för en helt egen film. Rätt svar: Fernando (11,5 poäng)

På tre ark?
Pa, pa and pa?
Nobody can have missed the latest world-encompassing ABBA revival in the wake of the movie Mamma Mia!, which is based on the musical with the same name. No matter what one thinks of the ABBA sound or even Pierce Brosnans singing skills, it is easy to find oneself tapping along in the simple but intriguing rhythm of the past. In the movie the main character Sophie mails three letter, of which one has the postage stamps shown in the question. Later, Sophie meets her possible fathers, all three of them, on the Swedish-flaggingp yacht Fernando. The name of the boat in the movie is, just like everything else, tightly linked to ABBA through the song the iconic group performed in English, and had previously been released by Frida in Swedish. The history of the real boat, with the real name Tai-Mo-Shan, could be the story of movie on its own. Correct avswer: Fernando (11.5 points)

Helt bortkollrad? (Completely lost?)
Har du problem med årets frågor och du känner att tiden håller på att rinna ut? Var då inte rädd - chansa på något rimligt! Läs frågan och kolla vad som krävs för dina sex svar (en bokstav, en siffra, etc.) och skicka in det för det kan räcka långt! Kom ihåg att det finns andra som utsätts för betydligt större prövningar, såväl påhittade som "verkliga". Om detta inte hjälper, slappna då av med en Bergman-rulle?

Anar öråd?
Lost it yet?
Are you experiencing problems with the questions this year, while time is running out? Then shake off your fear - take your best guess! Read the question and check you need for your six answers (a letter, a number, etc.) and submit that because it might be enough! Remember that there are others that are facing much worse challenges, including both made-up and "real" ones. If that does not help, why not relax with a Bergman movie?

Klurendrejeriet 2009
Nu slås portarna upp för Klurendrejeriet® 2009! I årets adventskalender presenteras en gåta dagligen vid lunchtid (svensk tid) som förhoppningsvis både är utmanande och informativ. Efter den fullbordade adventskalendern erbjuds sedan lite extra betänketid för att till sist avslutas med en final i Uppsala i vanlig ordning. Tävlingens sponsorer, regler och finstilta text presenteras lite efterhand och kommer att sammanfattas med jämna mellanrum. Kort sagt: Det finns ingen anledning att invänta julen när man kan ha roligt redan nu! Och när vi säger nu, menar vi vid lunchtid - varje dag hela december. Kom dock ihåg: Ingen kan allt, men alla kan något!

7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - START!
It is high time to open the gates to Klurendrejeriet® 2009! This year's advent calendar will offer one question per day (served at lunch time, CET) which hopefully offers both a challenge and information. After the calendar is complete, extra time will be provided until the competition will end in a grand finale in Uppsala as usual. The sponsors and rules of the contest will be presented as we go along but also summarized frequently enough. In brief: There is no real reason to wait for X-Mas when we can have fun now! And when we say now, we mean at lunch time - every day in December. But, remember this fair warning: No one knows everything, but everyone knows something!

C. MISSFALL (C. FELIS NAVIDAD)
Redan i titeln fanns en ledtråd som anspelade på att frågan hade med ett kattdjur att göra. Att sedan dess ränder fanns som tapetmönster kanske förenklade jakten lite grand, men hur många såg dem före lösningen var i hamn? Efter domar i Stockholms tingsrätt (25 november 2005) och Svea hovrätt (2 maj 2007) har Beredskapsmuseet fått äganderätten över Bertil Almqvists En svensk tiger, som även Försvarsmakten gjort anspråk på. Ännu är dock inte allt löst, eftersom Försvarsmaktens användade var otillåten och därmed lett till en stämningsansökan så sent som 8 februari i år. Bilden ses årligen av miljoner svenskar tack vare dess inkludering i filmatiseringen av Sagan om Karl-Bertil Jonssons julafton. Rätt svar: tiger (20 bonuspoäng)

Värt mer än tre kronor?
Worth more than three crowns?
Already in the title there was a hint to the underlying feline content of this question. And the fact that its stripes was found as wallpaper pattern may have simplified the hunt somewhat, but how many saw them before the solution was found? After settled disputes in both Stockholm District Court (November 25, 2005) and Svea County Court (May 2, 2007) Beredskapsmuseet has been given complete ownership of Bertil Almqvist's En svensk tiger, a piece of artwork the Swedish Armed Forces also laid a claim on. Not everything is settled yet, however, since the use by the Swedish Armed Forces was not permitted and a lawsuit was handed in as late as February 8, 2008. The picture is included in the popular Swedish X-Mas cartoon Sagan om Karl-Bertil Jonssons julafton. Correct answer: tiger (20 bonuspoäng)

G. LYXFÄRD MED LYXFLÄRD (G. LUXURIOUS FEMME FATALE)
Det "SS ....i." som stod i texten till denna fråga passar mycket riktigt inte in på RMS Titanic och därmed inte heller Kate Winslet från filmen om detta berömda skepp. Istället gällde det ett annat stort lyxfordon: Rolls Royce. Kylarprydnaden på en Rolls Royce heter Spirit of Ecstacy och förmodligen stod Eleanor Velasco Thornton modell för den. Hon och över 300 andra omkom när SS Persia sjönk i Medelhavet 30 december 1915. Precis under statyetten finner man namnet Rolls Royce med två sammanflätade R däremellan. Rätt svar: S (10 bonuspoäng)

Varr svarret korrekt?
Werre yourr answerr correct?
The "SS ....i." that was to be found in the text for this question does not fit with RMS Titanic and thus not on Kate Winlset in the corresponding motion picture either. Instead we turn to another luxury vehicle: Rolls Royce. The hood ornament on a Rolls Royce is called Spirit of Ecstacy and most likely Eleanor Velasco Thornton was the model for is. She and more than 300 others died when the SS Persia sunk in the Mediterranean Sea December 30, 1915. Just below the statuette one can find the name Rolls Royce separated by two intervowen R's. Correct answer: S (10 bonus points)

17. SOCKERTOPPEN (17. PEAK PERFORMANCE II)
Det finns många branta berg i världen, men få ökar i branthet med åren så kraftigt som det som symboliserar Paramount Pictures. Berget, som ursprungligen designades av William W. Hodkinson, är förmodligen en försköning av Ben Lomond Peak nära Ogden i Utah, där William spenderade en del av sin barndom. Toppen har en speciell koppling till filmerna om Indiana Jones och kommer förmodligen att få ytterligare en när den fjärde filmen släpps. Rätt svar: Paramount (17 poäng)

Majestic?
Majestätiskt?
There are many steep mountains in the world, but few increase theor steepness as much as the one that symbolizes Paramount Pictures. The mountain, originally designed by William W. Hodgkinson, is probably a beautified version of the Ben Lomond Peak near Ogden, Utah, where Hodkinson spent part of his childhood. The peak has a special connection to the movies about Indiana Jones and will probably get yet another when the fourth one is released. Correct answer: Paramount (17 point)

Tvärlänkar (Crosslinks)
Saknar du några tvärlänkar i Klurendrejeriet® 2008? Det kan bero på att de helt enkelt inte kunde vara med! Datumet då menyn serverades kan ju såklart inte stå med (fast det nämndes ändå på Klurbloggen i december) och en av siffrorna i årtalet innehåller dessutom det tänkta rätta svaret på fråga 7! Hursomhelst, det ligger ändå kvar en hel del kopplingar frågorna emellan, men det är ju inget nytt. De flesta av bildelementen, dock inte alla, är också bundna till någon fråga. Drinken på sida 9 är till exempel hör till exempel ihop med en av personerna på nästa uppslag, medan osten, ägaren av bandet och julgransdekorationen kan länkas ihop med en av de femton första frågorna. Att ett av häftstiften inte har något att göra med fråga F tar vi för givet att ni vet, men de tre tapeternas "hemvist" får ni själva lista ut. Sedan kan ni helt strunta i den omkullvälta kaffekoppen, för lite spill får man nog räkna med i en sån här våldsam jakt!

Reaching the top?
Dags att nå toppen?
Are you missing some of the crosslinks in Klurendrejeriet® 2008? It could simply be due to the fact that they could not be there! The date when the menu was served had to be removed (though it was mentioned on Klurbloggen in December) and one of the digits in the year is also the answer we consider the correct one for question 7! Anyway, there are still quite a few connections between the questions, but that is nothing new. Most of the pictured items, though not all, are also tied to questions. The drink on page 9 for instance is connected to one of the persons on the next page, while the cheese, the owner of the sash and the X-Mas decoration can be linked to one of the fifteen first questions. That one of the thumb tacks has nothing to do with question F we take for granted that you do know, but the "home" of the three wallpapers you will have to figure out all on your own. And let us once and for all ignore the spilled coffee cup, since some minor mishaps ought to be expected in a wild goose chase such as this one!

Burspråk igen! (Caged treasure again!)
Som vi nämnde för bara några dagar sedan har en film kommit till Sverige som mer än nuddar vid temat för Klurendrejeriet® 2008 - den träffar nästan mitt i prick! Naturligtvis kan man hitta ledtrådar i själva filmen också, även om den mest tydliga med en tydlig koppling till fråga 8 syns (som sig bör) på ett kryptiskt sätt. Deltagarna i Klurendrejeriet® bör dock inte ha några problem att uttyda denna ledtråd, eller hur?

Åtta med måtta!
Ben shot Lincoln?
As we mentioned just a few days ago, a movie has arrived to Sweden that more than touches the theme for Klurendrejeriet® 2008 - it almost hits the bull's eye! It is of course possible to find clues in the actual movie as well, even though the clearest one with an obvious connection to question 8 is visible in a (naturally) cryptic way. Participants in Klurendrejeriet® should have no problem in deciphering this clue, right?

Prisvärd? (Worth a prize?)
Det pratas mycket om svenska priser i slutet och början av ett år, däribland i film (Guldbaggen), i sport (Jerringpriset) och de som påverkas av nya eller ändrade skatter. Oavsett vad man tycker om dessa är slutresultatet alltsomoftast oåterkalleligt. De priser som tillfaller vinnarna i Klurendrejeriet® 2008 kommer att presenteras i detalj inom kort och vi hoppas att dessa sprider lika mycket glädje som de här ovan, om än i vitt skilda läger.

He is who he is (but backwards)!
Döpt efter AML-roman?
There is a lot of conversation dealing with all sorts of prizes these first days of a year, in movies, sports, and everything else that can be called entertainment. Whatever one feels about the winners in these contest, most of the time the jury's decision is final. The prizes that will be given to the winners in Klurendrejeriet® 2008 will be prsented in detail here shortly and we hope that they will spread an equal amount of joy as the ones mentioned above, though in very different areas.

Burspråk? (Caged treasure?)
Filmen behöver visserligen ingen gratisreklam, särskilt inte i dessa kommersiella tider och med tanke på vilket företag som står bakom den. Den beskriver dock temat för Klurendrejeriet® 2008 så pass bra att vi väljer att göra ett undantag här och nu för National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Såväl bioaffisch (se nedan) som handling knyter an till tävlingen, den förstnämnda till resekatalogen och den senare som en billig(?)filmatiserad karbonkopia av fråga 24. Beror detta verkligen enbart på slumpen?

Saint Nicolas?
Äggacage?
This movie does not need any free advertising space, especially not in these commercially driven days and with the big company behind the movie. Nevertheless, it fits the theme for Klurendrejeriet® 2008 so well that we think it is worth making an exception here and now for National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Both the official movie poster (see above) and the plot links to the contest, the first to the travel catalogue and the latter as a cheap(?) filmed carbon copy of question 24. Can this really only be a coincidence?

Affischnamn med rätta! (Bill of Rights!)
Alla som läst frågorna i Klurendrejeriet® 2008 vet att vi letar efter en berömd film i fråga 13, men visst kan man knyta samman en del andra frågor med andra filmer. Vi har här nedan dolt filmtitlarna, annars skulle det bli alltför enkelt, i jakten fyra ledtrådar eller bekräftelser. Vi bör säga att affischen till vänster tillhör den tolv år tidigare versionen av en film med samma namn. Den mest osäkra ledtråden bland de affischer som visas uppsatta här är dock den till höger, eftersom vi inte vet om "sammankopplaren" ens var med och gav valuta för pengarna ...

The worst of the best?
Det värsta av det bästa?
Everyone who has read the questions in Klurendrejeriet® 2008 knows that we are looking for a famous movie in question 13, but it is also possible to tie together a few other questions with other movies. Above, we have removed the movie titles (or else it would be too easy), in the search for four clues or confirmations. We should say that the poster to the left belongs to the twelwe year earlier version of a movie with the same title. The most uncertain clue among the posters that are pinned up here is, however, the one to the right, since we do not know if the "connector" was there and gave us our money's worth ...

Att fela är historiskt (To err is historic)
Historieprofessor Frands Herschend hävdar att filmen Arn som vi tidigare nämnt här på Klurbloggen innehåller felaktigheter. Det må möjligen vara sant, men han glömmer bort ett par viktiga detaljer i sitt uttalande. Först och främst är det ju en film vi pratar om, som visserligen anspelar på historiska fakta precis som boken Röde Orm, inget annat. Dessutom är ju till och med huvudpersonen Arn påhittad och hur kan man då vilja hävda att något annat i samma berättelse borde vara mer sant än det?

The story of Arnia ...
Sagan om Arnia ...
History professor Frands Herschend reports to Svenska Dagbladet that the movie Arn (previously discussed here on Klurbloggen) contains errors. It may be true, but he is missing a few vital points in his argument. First of all, we are talking about a movie that may seek some similarity to hihstorical facts just like book The Long Ships, nothing else. Furthermore, even the main character Arn is made up and why would anyone then want to point out that something else in the same story line ought to be more true than that?

Kall anka? (Do not duck?)
Årets publikstatistik för en svensk julklassiker har redogjorts: nästan 3,5 miljoner svenskar satte sig för att se när Kalle Anka och hans vänner önskar god jul. Detta är långt ifrån rekordåret 1997 då 4,32 miljoner svenskar såg programmet, men räcker gott och väl för att räknas som en publikfavorit i Klurendrejeriet® om den nu skulle vara efterfrågad.

Where is my royalty?
Var är min royalty?
The viewer ratings for a Swedish X-Mas classic has been published: close to 3.5 million Swedes sat down to watch when Donald Duck and his friends say From All of Us to All of You. This is far from the current record (1997) when 4.32 million Swedes watch the same program, but is far more than enough to be counted as a crowd pleaser in Klurendrejeriet®, if it ever were in question.

Harni hört? (Arn't you Swedish?)
Före 1998 kopplades de ihopskrivna bokstäverna arn förmodligen främst ihop med ARN, IATA-flygplatskoden för Arlanda, samma fiffigt inkluderade kod i FlygbussARNa eller möjligtvis Allmänna reklamationsnämnden (ARN). Men sedan Jan Guillou skrev sin romantrilogi om den fiktiva Arn Magnusson av Folkungaätten har dessa fått underordnad betydelse i dagligt tal. Idag har dessutom den första Arn-filmen premiär i Skara, medan stora delar av landet får vänta till julafton. Om någon blir missnöjd, kan de ju alltid vända sig till ARN så cirkeln sluts eller varför inte sätta tänderna i Klurendrejeriet® 2008?

The latest crusade?
Kors i tåget?
Before 1998, the three-letter combination arn was primarily connected with ARN, the IATA airport code for Stockholm-Arlanda airport, the same code included in the airport shuttle FlygbussARNa or possibly the National Board for Consumer Complaints (ARN). But since Jan Guillou wrote his trilogy about the fictitious Arn Magnusson of the House of Folkung all these have ended up in a subordinate position in everyday life. Today, the first of the Arn movies premières in the city of Skara, while most other parts of Sweden have to wait until X-Mas Eve. If someone finds serious flaws in the movie, they could always turn to ARN to rectify the situation and complete the circle. Or how about try to solve Klurendrejeriet® 2008?
