Name That Movie in a Single Frame!

[Polk]

Here’s a game that we played on a forum I used to frequent, and it can be a lot of fun if people actually participate.
Basically, someone posts one or more screenshots from a movie, and then people try to guess them. Like this:

Answer: The Road

Simple, right? Alright, let’s just set up a couple of ground rules.

Rules (PLEASE READ ME)
-You can post a picture/s, an answer/s, or both.

-Posting multiple images is fine. In fact, I encourage it. Having several (like, say, 4 or 5) images going at one time will keep the game fresh, and just in case there’s a real stumper that nobody can figure out, it will keep the thread moving.

-Don’t go too obscure. I love a good Romanian drama as much as the next guy, but I doubt there are many people on this forum that would recognize a screen shot from 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days.

In the same general idea, pick a shot that requires a bit of thought to recognize, but nothing too difficult. Take my example as, well, an example. A regular person would probably be able to recognize the man in my picture as Viggo Mortensen, and through a little bit of thinking and some minor googling, would be able to figure out it’s a shot from The Road.

-Animated films are totally cool, but let’s keep the anime stuff to a minimum. Yes, I admit this is discrimination, but this is my thread, and if you want to go and make a “Name that Anime in a single frame” thread, by all means, go for it.

-Forum rules apply here. That means no nudity and nothing too graphic, por favor.

-Since this thread will probably be pretty image heavy, please use a dedicated hosting site for your pictures to prevent lots of image leeching. Use sites like photobucket, tinypic (or any photo hosting site you like) or your own hosting please.

Keep this in mind, something polk failed to mention is that if you dont want to give out the answers, you will have to save the photo and upload it manually, otherwise taking pics from google will elave the name of the movie (more than likely) under 'image info' in its link.

I think that’s about it, so I’ll post some images to get us started.

The Outsiders.

[Rowan]

Correct.

The one you posted is the outsiders.

although I knew that was from the outsiders before looking. I know my movies.

[Clint]

Okay, I got you, Rowan. I wouldn't want anybody to cheat. Dodie, that's from The Green Mile.

Alright, what's this one from?



And yes, that is me.

[Taco-Calamitous]

Ugh. You're right. I didn't even think about this. I'll edit your quote into the OP. Thanks.

And, in the interest of keeping the game going, Telegraph's is from Children of Men.

And here's mine:



Pretty easy, but I just rewatched this movie and this stuck out to me.

[Halie]

American Psycho?

[Dodie16]

Schindler's List

[Rowan]

I believe thats Galaxy Quest.

This is a scene from one of my favorite films.

[Clint]

American History X. I'm pretty sure. I've only seen that movie a couple of times, though.

This one is one of the movies from a series. You have to name the exact movie, and not just the franchise name.

[Cyanist]

Star Trek III: The search for Spock.
What about this one?

[RamesesII]

The Shawshank redemption if I am correct.

[Cyanist]

Correct. Once upon a time in china...2?

[RamesesII]

John Cussack, I like his movies, I am going to guess '2012' but I may be wrong because he looks too young in that pic for it to be from 2012.

Any way lets get another one in the fray.

[Cyanist]

Sorry. Actually, that's "Martian Child".
Uh... Legion?
What's this one?

[RamesesII]

Damn haha.

No it isn't Legion.

Yours is Dumb and Dumber the first one.

[Cyanist]

Hmmm, I'll get it eventually...this?

or this?

or this one...

here's an easy one.

[Ventus's Girl]

2. Yes Man
i cant name the other 1 or 3, but is 4. other guys?

[RamesesII]

1 is The Grudge- good movie.

3 looks like Ong Bak.

4 Not sure but as a clue that is Mark Whalberg.

[Assassin]

The fourth one is The Fighter

[Cyanist]

Here's some morez!

another...

yet another...

here you go (am I the only one offering up movies?)

Yup. Oh, this is one of my favorites.

[Polk]

Here's some morez!

(images go here)

Here's what I've got:

1. The Seven Year Itch
2. Holes
3. Goodfellas
4. When Harry Met Sally
5. The Man who Shot Liberty Valance.

I think that's right.

And a couple more to keep things moving:

[RamesesII]

1 The bridge on the river kwai.

Loved that movie Polk thanks I might just go watch it again.

Have no idea what the other two are

[Cyanist]

Whoa, Polk, those last two've stumped me.

The Andalusian Dog By Salvadore Dali!

Here's some more:
