Solution: Blue Harvest

Answer: QUI-GON JINN


Solvers are presented with ten sets of film frames, each frame displaying a word and an orange dot somewhere on its border. The punctuation and capitalization on some frames suggest that each set of frames can be assembled into one or more complete sentences. Solvers can attempt to do so, but will run into issues with syntax in most cases. After attempting this enough, solvers might notice that they can arrange the frames such that the orange dot moves clockwise one position for each frame, which results in a nearly coherent tagline.

The first aha is in noticing that the taglines can become completely coherent if one frame word is replaced with its opposite; for example, the seventh tagline reads, "There's a frozen world in inner space," which becomes "There's a frozen world in outer space," once "inner" is changed to "outer". As an additional aid in assembling sentences, there are dark markings on the appropriate sides of the first and last frames of each sentence of a tagline. The taglines don't correspond to existing films, but a feasible title matching the given enumeration can be intuited for each tagline. In the given order, the taglines are:

The next aha is the commonality between these feasible titles: enough googling will reveal that these are all "ruse titles" for real films (often used during production to prevent fans from interfering with filming, or to prevent rental companies from charging higher prices to high-profile productions). This is hinted at in the flavortext, and some solvers may recognize the puzzle title, "Blue Harvest", as the well-known working title for Return of the Jedi. Finding the films that these ruse titles correspond to reveals that each true title is as long in letters as its constructed tagline is in words; in fact, breaks in sentences correspond to spaces in the film titles. The "opposite" word in each tagline can then be linked to a certain letter in the true film's title. Noting that each tagline's first frame has a dot in a different position (numbered in the above table, with 1 corresponding to the top-left dot and going clockwise), these extracted letters can be reordered to spell QUI-GON JINN, this puzzle's answer.
