Guess The Flick!
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! How could you guys not guess that?" This would certainly be ambiguous when someone posts something from Avatar, 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: http://www.cbc.ca/gfx/images/arts/ph...y-gold_584.jpg |
No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die!
Goldfinger
|
Is it "Goldfinger"? Or for the full, proper UK title, "Ian Fleming's Goldfinger"?
EDIT: BASTARD NINJA'ING! |
gold finger
Balls... |
Mr. Ryanderman, take it away.

Don't Cross the Streams! (Not a Hint)

Yay!

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
I think... |
Yeah Hawk's got it hardcore.
|
Quote:
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; http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i...Battle/Pic.png |
I've seen this film but can't for the life of me think what it is.
|
Event Horizon.
|
A winner is Archbio.
I was hoping that would take a bit longer. |

Untouchables 2: The Touched
|
Public Enemies
|
A fucking terrible film I haven't seen because it's terrible.
|
I think Wig had it with "Public Enemies"
|
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? |
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?
|
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. |
I have never heard of that movie... and I've heard of a lot of movies.
|

Hmm- this one shouldn't be too bad. http://i831.photobucket.com/albums/z...mos2010/Jo.jpg Hint- identify the actor if in trouble |
Something with James Dean or someone who looks very much like him
|
Quote:
I'm going to say that's The Blob. But probably not. |
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?
|
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.

Edit: I mean a movie made by Hitchcock roughly in the second World War period rather than a war movie. |
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-" |
Just guessing, but The Third Man?
|
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. Quote:
|
So, who posts the next flick pic?
|
Previous postee's choice, perhaps? Whoever got closest or had the most creative answer?
|
I think Barrel should decide. I'll add an addendum.
|
First to post one!
|
|
Tony Todd in Night of the living dead! The 1990 Remake of course
|
Flawless victory for krogoth.

|
Haven't seen it. Probably sucks though.
|
|
Predator?
|
Tropic Thunder?
|
Something about it tells me Platoon.
|
You sir, are correct! Stg. Barnes from Platoon.
|
I did think he looked like someone you don't want to turn your back to.
I'll give it another spin! http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/8713/ragi.jpg |
Brazil
|
It's probably just me, but that looks quite a bit like Cerebro from the X-Men films.
Anyway, since Wiggums is probably right, I'll just say X-Men 2. |
Saw IV
|
Brazil is correct!
That's the room where Information Retrieval happens. Wigmund wins. |

O Brother where art thou!
|
Probably a good thing to not post any Coen Brothers films anymore. Depending on how fast Meister can see the image, he'll have won. ;)
But yeah. "O Brother where art thou!" would have been my answer too. |
Alright, Meister's turn.
|
I think you guys are just posting Coen Brothers movies to annoy me.
|
Propably. I really wish people would post movies I've seen.
|
I just realized the only Coen brothers movie I've watched is the Big Lebowski.
|
|
Dead Man, Alternatively titled: The only Depp film that doesn't suck
|
That was quite possibly quicker than I took to select and upload the screenshot. Good job, your turn.
|
Let's go: Imma coming to get you!

Rosemary's Baby?
|
It's been a long time. It was Existenz which was massively popular round our parts- I guess nowhere else... Actress should have given it away I thought.
Floor open! |
|
Is that possibly Shoot Em Up?
Actor looks right and he stabs people with carrots but not sure about the scene. |
Correct again! Getting deja vu here.
Take it away! |
Peow peow! Let's see whose been watching their classic westerns.
http://i831.photobucket.com/albums/z...s2010/Peow.jpg I just wanted something with guns in it. It was either this or robocop. |
Once Upon a Time in the West, but wasn't it in color?
|
You are correct and yes it was in colour- I didn't think about it at the time.
Double points for you for getting it with a handicap |

2001, unmistakably.
|
Looks like I don't have a medium setting. Expect something from a France production next time I got it!
Meister got it! |
|
Bear?
|
No fair, I was sleeping! Took me 20 seconds once I saw it.
Coffee and cigarettes! |
Correct, your turn!
I was considering using one of those shots that show literally just some coffee cups and a pack of cigarettes but eh. Bill Murray drinking coffee directly from the pot is too good to miss. |
Coffee cups might have stumped me- they are distinctive but still.
Let's try this one: http://i831.photobucket.com/albums/z...mos2010/Yo.jpg |
Lawnmower man.
|
Correct.I'm oscillating between nobody guessing and people getting it instantly. I need a medium value.
