So the rules of the game are as follows - but probably open to change as the kinks are worked out; someone will post a screen-cap of a movie. It can be pretty much any kind of movie, documentary, foreign, action, horror, comedy - whatever. But it has to have:

A) Something recognizable - you can't just post a picture of a tree and say that "This is the forest from Defiance! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYZ2oYDSKHA) How could you guys not guess that?" This would certainly be ambiguous when someone posts something from Avatar, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1_JBMrrYw8) but for now, choose something that you would recognize based on the visual clues you present with your screen.

B) With similar movies, like horror movie sequels, (Friday The 13th 1 - 24,234,325) people should have the sequel number on the end, or the full title. IMDB it if you need to.

C) We should just go with movies for now, but in the future we can probably get away with TV shows and such.

D) I think there should be a 48 hour rule. Real life has had a tendency to work against my schedule lately, and I know it has for others, so a screenie can be up for 48 hours without comment before someone can post their own.

E) The original poster is the judge, obviously, and should give the first right answer the opportunity to post their own pic.

F) If no one is able to guess the picture, the screen-poster should choose a candidate from those who've guessed on his/her picture.

Ready? Okay, on your marks, get set:

Yeah Hawk's got it hardcore.

Ryanderman
03-10-2010, 12:32 PM
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

I think...

Yep. Picture taken from a scene that was blatently ripped off from an old Superman cartoon. Which was probably blatently ripped off from something else. Not that you care.

Anyway, Hawk's correct.

Yeah I've never actually seen the film, I just recognised the giant robots.

Anyhoo, time for something a bit more obscure (hopefully), but still guessable;

I think Wig had it with "Public Enemies"

Archbio
03-11-2010, 02:09 PM
The characters could be called public enemies, but that's not the correct answer!

Did I overshoot the difficulty? Come on, look at that guy! He might be a minor character, but how could you forget that guy?

Whomper
03-11-2010, 07:18 PM
A hallway full of gangsters? It looks comical enough to be in The Naked Gun. I'll also guess The Naked Gun 2 & 1/2, just for good measure.

Johnny Dangerously perhaps?

Archbio

The 48 hours are up!

The flick was Miller's Crossing.

That's Leo O'Bannon's crew and the man being shown in (but who's not identifiable in this particular picture) is Tom Reagan, played by Gabriel Byrne.

I thought the sequence had something memorable to it, but it's not top tier. Next time I'll try and pick a smidge easier.

You're not missing much. I've blanked most of it from my mind.

You're going to say something like that everytime you don't get the answer, aren't you?

I'm going to say that's The Blob.

But probably not.

Seil
03-13-2010, 02:11 AM
Nah, The Blob's old, but it was made recently enough to have a little color. That looks like... a man and woman running down an alley while a truck chases them. I think it might be a war film?

Krylo
03-13-2010, 02:13 AM
I think it might be a picture that is so small you can't make out either of their faces or most of the scenery.

Archbio
03-13-2010, 02:38 AM
Nah, The Blob's old, but it was made recently enough to have a little color.

Good point.

That looks like... a man and woman running down an alley while a truck chases them. I think it might be a war film?

I was thinking a Hitchcock wartime film, just for the motif of a man and a woman running.

Edit: I mean a movie made by Hitchcock roughly in the second World War period rather than a war movie.

Geminex
03-13-2010, 04:11 AM
I don't think it's a wartime film. Looks more like crime or horror. I'd go crime.

Of course, I don't know very much about those two genres, so I'll just say
"Allleys 2
-Return of the Cobblestones-"

Meister
03-13-2010, 04:37 AM
Just guessing, but The Third Man?

Professor Smarmiarty
03-13-2010, 05:09 AM
Didn't realise how small the picture would be-oops. No one will get it at that size. It was real big on my screen....
It was On the Waterfront.

You're going to say something like that everytime you don't get the answer, aren't you?


Nah it's more my pathological hatred of the Coen Brothers causes my to hassle them at every opportunity.

Edit:
Aww man, everyone I know doesn't remember that movie, I thought it would be a second guess or something You disappoint me Sithdarth But yeah, It's Time Bandits.

To be honest I wasn't totally sure until I did a google search and found the exact picture you used. Also, I used to work the overnight shift so on my days off I got to watch all the "crappy" but totally awesome late night cable movies.

The worst part is that it COULD have been decent. Had a pretty good acting cast, with the dude who played the Punisher up through John Malkovich, and Ron Perlman. Had some decent cinematography as well.

But the special effects and the writing were both just terrible.
