PUZZLE #367
THE BLOCK LIST 4
In each numbered row of squares, fill in the squares of each color with one of the given words below from the set of that color, keeping the letters in their original order, so that the entire row spells out a single longer word. However, you have to figure out what each smaller, color-coded word is based on the clues given.
Once you're done with the first four rows, enter the letters of the remaining words into the last row of squares similarly to spell out the FINAL ANSWER: a film from thirty years ago (1991) whose title is more than one word.
RED WORDS
• Claude, Penelope, and Sylvester from Looney Tunes, e.g.
• Palindromic joke
• Product from Mattel or Melissa & Doug
• Red Muppet who hosts The Not-Too-Late Show on HBO Max
BLUE WORDS
• "Into the Great Wide _____" (Tom Petty song)
• Liquid container or rural wind instrument
• Piece of cloth waved in semaphore codes
• Starfish limb
GREEN WORDS
• Blue, red, or yellow germ that Dr. Mario cures
• Lima or fava
• Number of Isaac Asimov's Laws of Robotics
• Raised racehorses, say
ORANGE WORDS
• Bloomin' _____ (Outback Steakhouse appetizer)
• Mattress spring
• Part of a bouquet mentioned in "Ring Around the Rosie"
• X-Men character with genius intellect and blue fur
Once you think you know what the FINAL ANSWER is, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or even ask for a hint, though you'll be marked as having used one if you do so) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for a link to a .PDF version which you can print out!
