Movie Challenge

Arcisal · Jan 17, 2013

There are 10 screenshots from different movies. See if you can get them all.

I'll be honest, I've no prize in mind nor can I promise you there ever will be one. This is just pure simple fun to test your movie knowledge.

Once a person gets one movie right, I will post the name of the movie with the first person who mentioned.

Flags of our Fathers is correct! The first right guess! Appaloosa is, however, incorrect. Try again.

Try to remember harder!

Nuclear said:
#7 Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.

That is correct.

I will add the answers in another hidden tag within the respective screenshots, credited with the one who guessed it.

Bernkastel · Jan 17, 2013

#8 This Is England.

#8 This Is England.

Very good! I was expecting it to be guessed later rather than sooner.

If this challenge turns out to be good, I'll add more screenshots.

PROXY · Jan 17, 2013

Screenshot 10 might be Rockn'rolla.

Nuclear · Jan 17, 2013

Damn, 9 seems so familiar.

TheNisse · Jan 17, 2013

3: THE KINGDOM!
Alas! :grin:

1: The Descendants or The Ides of March

GhostThruster · Jan 18, 2013

6. Lost in Translation

Arcisal · Jan 18, 2013

PROXY said:

Correct. This was my favorite scene.

TheNisse said:
3: THE KINGDOM!
Alas!

1: The Descendants or The Ides of March

Correct as well. It's "At Last!". Not "Alas!". The one you used is a form of woe.

And Both of those guesses for #1 are wrong.

GhostThruster said:
6. Lost in Translation

That is also correct.

Only Screenshots #1, #2, #5 and #9 remain.

Arcisal · Jan 18, 2013

Sorry for double posting.

I've decided to add a second picture to Screenshot #1. A picture of George Clooney stoning at the floor is not enough, even for the most movie savvy.

And I may add another 5 more screenshots.

PROXY · Jan 18, 2013

Screen 5 True Grit or Django Unchained I think.

Sorvaltis · Jan 18, 2013

is #9 Moon?(or The Moon)

Imadori · Jan 19, 2013

#1 is quite familiar. Perhaps it is 'The American'?

PROXY said:

Sorry. Both of those are incorrect.

Sorvaltis said:

Yes! Good one. Without the "The".

Kyousuke Imadori said:
#1 is quite familiar. Perhaps it is 'The American'?

Correct as well. I knew that silencer scene would be almost iconic.

Added another 5 more screenshots to be guessed.

Tell me about some epic or funny movies. I mean like Lord of the Rings epic.
It's weekend, which means I'll have to watch lots of movies.

PROXY · Jan 19, 2013

11 is Jarhead pretty sure.

14 -> Tree of life.

twat · Jan 20, 2013

screenshot 5 could be American Outlaws

Go watch some of the great classic of the 90's. "Pulp Fiction", "Fight Club", "Goodfellas" and "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" are just some of the few that come into mind.

PROXY said:

14 -> Tree of life.

Both are correct.

Sorry, that's wrong.

okay, is it Open Range?

dracemia · Jan 20, 2013

I would have guessed Number 5 from True Grit myself but seeing as it was wrong, I'll guess ... Unforgiven ? or Jonah Hex, probably.

Number 13 is the Barbarian Invasion

Nope.

Unforgiven and Jonah Hex are both wrong. Barbarian Invasion is correct though!

Added a second screenshot to Screenshot 5. And is no one going to try and guess Screenshot 2?

PROXY · Jan 21, 2013

A second screenshot on 2 would help. I know so badly that I've seen that one.

PROXY said:

Added as requested. If no one is able to guess it within 48 hours, I will announce the answer for only Screenshot 2.

And changed the image to Screenshot 15. I made it easier and clearer.

Sorvaltis · Jan 22, 2013

My guess on #2 is The Way back

dracemia · Jan 22, 2013

#5 is definitely the Lawless!!! The 2nd screenshot really clear that up.

These are wild guesses but #15 is possibly Glengarry Glen Ross (awesome film) or Lincoln Lawyer (not as awesoem as Glen Ross) and the #2 could be ... League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

...also, I don't know if this is cheating but I remember the guy #12 as that Admiral from Behind Enemy Lines, so I look him up and look up his filmography.

BAM! #12 is Royal Tenenbaums.

Lordkoon · Jan 22, 2013

Screenshot 15 : American Psycho

edit: oh wait they got flat screens... wrong

Correct. Finally!

Screenshot #5 is correct. I'll give you Screenshot #15 as well. It's Lincoln Lawyer. And yes, #12 is correct as well.

Sorry nope.

Well. That's all the screenshots there are to guess. I'll start a new one sometime soon!

To those who participated, hope you enjoyed this chance to test your movie knowledge. To those that did participate, I hope this thread will help you expand your motion film horizons!

Here is the order of the movies guessed:
1) Flags of our Fathers (Screenshot #4) by TheNisse
2) Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (Screenshot #7) by Nuclear
3) This Is England (Screenshot #8) by Bernkastel
4) RocknRolla (Screenshot #10) by PROXY
5) The Kingdom (Screenshot #3) by TheNisse
6) Lost in Translation (Screenshot #6) by GhostThruster
7) Moon (Screenshot #9) by Sorvaltis
8) The American (Screenahot #1) by Kyousuke Imadori
9) Jarhead (Screenshot #11) and Tree of Life (Screenshot #14) by PROXY
10) The Barbarian Invasions (Screenshot #13) by dracemia
11) The Way Back (Screenshot #2) by Sorvaltis
12) Lawless (Screenshot #5), The Lincoln Lawyer (Screenshot #15) and The Royal Tenenbaums (Screenshot #12) by dracemia*
*dracemia actually only guessed Lawless. The Lincoln Lawyer was a blind shot between that and another movie and The Royal Tenenbaums was discovered from looking at the character's filmography.

Final Tally:
Nuclear: 1
Bernkastel: 1
GhostThruster: 1
Kyousuke Imadori: 1
TheNisse: 2
Sorvaltis: 2
PROXY: 3
dracemia: 4 (Or 2)
