Shout About Movies is a movie trivia DVD game played entirely on a television.[1] The game is designed to be played with four or more players, a DVD player and a television is the only device necessary to play the game. Players split up into two teams, shout out answers to movie trivia questions, and use the remote to keep score. Whichever player shouts the answer correctly, their team gets the point. The game has eight rounds, and all of them revolve around movies, with a healthy dose of general trivia mixed in. Similar to You Don't Know Jack and Trivial Pursuit in tone, it is distinguished by the DVD player keeping track of the score. Each DVD has three games, and each game has eight rounds.
