First, a little tease...

(If you saw the movie this week, you may remember this particular frame - you saw it for all of 1/12th of a second! ;) )

[Fade to inferno]

toy story 3

[Janke]

Nope.

[Janke]

Oh, forgot this, and I can't edit my first post...

[Fade to inferno]

WOW i thought that was for sure it. I definitely have a good second guess. but ill let someone else take it.

[Janke]

Somebody else will have to take it, according to the rules... ;)

[Dodgy Nick]

Shrek forever after

[cornreaper]

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock?

[Pali]

Lost in Space

I think they made a movie with that name. :hv20-smilie50:

[Fade to inferno]

despicable me

[Janke]

Nope...

In the previous pic, you got four stars - now we're down to just one, a little closer to home... ;)

[Fade to inferno]

you said "this week" does this imply it it is in theaters at this time?

[Janke]

No, I meant that if you've watched the movie this week, e.g. from DVD or tape, that first image might have stayed in your memory.

Hint: it's not a 21st century movie. (Neither is it a 20th Century movie... ;))

The Land Before Time

[Janke]

No.

Time for some shuteye, so keep guessing. Next pic tomorrow before or around 08:00 UTC

Hint: it's not a 21st century movie. (Neither is it a 20th Century movie... ;))

Is it a scene from this (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4a/Muybridge_race_horse_gallop.jpg) movie? :hv20-smilie79:

LOL! No, about a hundred years younger than that... ;)

Back to guessing:

First, a hint: The film is based on an award-winning novel.

A new screenshot, too - so far, you've got stars, you've got the sun, now it's time for:

[Dodgy Nick]

Miracle Maker

[Janke]

Nope, wrong "novel"... ;)

[Pali]

One Million B.C.

[Janke]

Do you mean the one with Raquel Welch, or the one with Carole Landis as eye candy? (Anyway, in both cases the answer is no...)

Stars, sun and moon - how about a little good old earth:

[Pali]

Do you mean the one with Raquel Welch, or the one with Carole Landis as eye candy? (Anyway, in both cases the answer is no...)
Well, you did say it wasn't a 21st or 20th century film. :)

I didn't see the new one so I guess that's the one I was guessing. Now I need to wait for another guess before I make even a bigger idiot of myself. :)

[Janke]

Not quite, I said it isn't a 20th Century film. Sometimes, capitalization is important. ;)

(The newer one from 1966, stars Welch. But Landis did look pretty nice in 1940...)

Those films are cut classics now, and as a hint:

So is the film you're trying to guess!

[Janke]

I of course meant cult classics.... dang, edits disabled...

[Pali]

I get it: Century :)

Yea, that editing... I wanted to add that I used 'guess' three times in those two sentences. No can do.

I think they remade it a few years ago. AGAIN.

[Janke]

According to IMDB, there are indeed two films named Century, 1990 & 1993, but no...

So, all of you, keep guessing. But guess what - Pali can guess again only after others have guessed.

(That makes it four times! ;) )

New screenshot after my steroscopic wiewport shutters re-open, around 8:00 UTC...

[paperkut12]

The Neverending Story?

Just because I have no clue.

[Dust'n the Callipygous]

i'm gonna say Princess Mononoke, although the animation looks a little more dated

[cornreaper]

Death Wish IV: The Crackdown

[drapeama]

Bambi?

[Janke]

No, it's not "Princess Bambi's Neverending Deathwish".... ;)

It will become easier soon, but here's a recap of all clues so far:

- made before the year 2000
- not a 20th Century (Fox) production
- based on an award-winning novel
- considered a cult classic by many (now, I double-checked that the "L" is there, even though, sadly, many classics are cut...)

I'm up early, so here's the next picture, a little sooner than promised:

[Jim E]

It's "Watership Down", but you didn't hear that from me.....


.

[Janke]

Watership Down

is the right answer - but who said that? ;)

Now, you can all dicker who is going to post the next game...

PS: The next pix would have clinched it for sure:

[Jim E]

As the (undisputed) winner, I nominate Janke to start the next game. Man's got good taste in movies.

[Pali]

PS: The next pix would have clinched it for sure:
Not by me. You would have had to post the title page for this contestant. :)

OK, Looks like this is becoming a profession, not a hobby... but yes, I'll do one again.
